Humphry Davy did not actually create a light bulb in the modern sense, but he made significant advancements in electric lighting. In 1802, he demonstrated the first electric arc lamp by passing an electric current through two carbon rods, producing a bright light. His work laid the groundwork for future developments in electric lighting, influencing inventors like Thomas Edison who eventually created the practical incandescent light bulb. Davy's experiments were pivotal in exploring the potential of electricity for illumination.
