Many Americans began purchasing electric light bulbs in the late 19th century due to the widespread adoption of electric power infrastructure, particularly following the establishment of power stations. Innovations in electric lighting technology, such as Thomas Edison's development of a practical incandescent bulb in 1879, made electric lighting more accessible and efficient. Additionally, the promotion of electric lighting as a safer and more reliable alternative to gas lamps contributed to its growing popularity among consumers.
