Nikola Tesla

Edison started what we called the current wars. He wanted to power the word with his Direct current motor which Edison could not work it properly. Telsa did made it work properly but Tesla's Alternate current motor is better. Edison started diffamation on Tesla. He electrified animals showing that his system is better which is was not.

Research shows that Edison had scientists working for him and Edison got the patents. Obiously he had envy towards Nikola Tesla.

One thing he was better that Tesla is the market strategies which he employed workers and then negleting the patents to be in their names. The only thing Edison invent for real, is the electric chair.

In 1901 Nikola Tesla was one the first to identify "radiant energy." Tesla says that the source of this energy is our Sun. He concluded that the Sun emits small particles, each carrying so small of a charge, that they move with great velocity, exceeding that of light.

When radiant energy is cooled down it becomes static electricy. That is why in places when it is cold, rubbing feets in the carpet makes a static discharge.

Nikola Tesla was born in a midnight under a lightning storm which some people believe he was prone to understand eletricity.

There is no concrete evidence that Thomas Edison actively hated Nikola Tesla. However, they had different approaches to electrical technology, leading to some rivalry. Edison preferred direct current (DC) while Tesla promoted alternating current (AC), which was more efficient. Their differences in business strategies and personalities likely contributed to their competitive relationship.

The Tesla coil helped the world by enabling wireless communication and serving as a foundational technology for radio transmission. It also contributed to advancements in electrical engineering and the understanding of electricity. Additionally, the Tesla coil remains a popular educational tool for demonstrating principles of electromagnetism.

During his lifetime, Tesla invented fluorescent lighting, the Tesla induction motor, the Tesla coil, and developed the alternating current (AC) electrical supply system that included a motor and transformer, and 3-phase electricity.

Nikola Tesla's first invention, an improved telephone repeater, was developed during his early career working for the Central Telegraph Office in Budapest. It is believed that he completed this invention within a couple of years after starting his employment there.

No, Nikola Tesla did not invent in 1896. He was already an established inventor by that time, known for his contributions to the development of alternating current (AC) electrical systems. Tesla's major inventions and contributions were made in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Nikola Tesla is also known as a great inventor and many people say he was more brilliant than Edison was.

Edison is famous for inventing the phonograph, incandescent light bulb, cement making technology, motion picture camera, DC motors and electric power generation systems, battery and several other things we use every day and don't think much about. Tesla similarly invented radio, fluorescent light, AC motors and electric power generation systems. Both these men lived long lives, well into their 80s, at around the same time a century ago.

There are big differences between Edison and Tesla. The main one seems to be based on who got the credit for what. Many Tesla fans accuse Edison of having stolen much from Tesla who worked for Edison during his early years. They claim Edison was a thief and that he died a rich and powerful man surrounded by friends because he robbed Tesla and others like him. Meanwhile, Tesla died broke and miserable and lonely with his closest friends being wild pigeons he had enticed into his room at the Hotel New Yorker. Edison fans similarly suggest Tesla was a swindler who deceived investors into financing his ideas with promises he rarely kept. They suggest Tesla got his just rewards.

Both versions appear to be true. For example, Edison did not invent the light bulb. Joseph Swan was installing them in homes and landmarks in England years before Edison got his light bulb patented and working. Edison was buying out other people's patents and when Swan eventually sued Edison and won, Edison had to take him in as a partner in Edison's British company. Likewise, a deceitful Tesla managed to convince J.P. Morgan, the world's most powerful financier at the time, to finance his concept for wireless free electricity production under the guise of sending radio messages across the oceans and to and from ships at sea. Tesla was making artificial lightning with Morgan's money that was eventually cut off.

Edison and Tesla came to technological blows in the late 1800s when Tesla's AC (alternating current) power systems that are used all over the world today came into competition with Edison's DC (direct current) power systems. As it turns out, Tesla's system was the better one.

Only recently has interest been popularly renewed in Tesla's work, largely because a number of experimental scientists from around the world have now confirmed many of Tesla's ideas and inventions. His magical inventions (over 100 years ago) that amazed his fellow scientists, included wireless transmission, remote control systems, an earlier version of florescent lights, the electric motor, AC power, radar, and numerous others.

Amazingly, in 1898, Tesla demonstrated a wireless controlled boat, with the world's first remote control device that eventually became the basics for military weapons including the star wars program in space.

He was not invaded by the CIA. There is popular notion that immediately after Tesla's death, U.S. government agents entered his hotel suite, seized all of his scientific notes and papers, and soon after that they vanished, never to be seen again. According to those present at the time, Tesla's papers and other personal possessions were placed under the charge of the Office of Alien Property. His supposedly 'lost' papers, even the ones on advanced weapons, along with his personal belongings, were brought to the Manhattan Warehouse and Storage Co., locked up, and a certificate of ownership was issued to his nephew Sava Kosanovic.

Though history books continue to give Guglielmo Marconi credit for the invention of radio, Tesla's lectures on wireless broadcasting precede Marconi's radio patents by some three years. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on the matter in Tesla's favor, and struck down Marconi's patent claim, in 1943.

Every effort under compulsion demands a sacrifice of energy. I never paid such a price.

~ Nikola Tesla

I am credited with being one of the hardest workers and perhaps I am, if thought is the equivalent of labour, for I have devoted to it almost all of my waking hours. But if work is interpreted to be a definite performance in a specified time according to a rigid rule, then I may be the worst of idlers.

~ Nikola Tesla

This work somehow awakened my dormant powers of will and I began to practice self-control. At first my resolutions faded like snow in April, but in a little while I conquered my weakness and felt a pleasure I never knew before -- that of doing as I willed.

~ Nikola Tesla

But instinct is something which transcends knowledge. We have, undoubtedly, certain finer fibers that enable us to perceive truths when logical deduction, or any other willful effort of the brain, is futile.

~ Nikola Tesla

When natural inclination develops into a passionate desire, one advances towards his goal in seven-league boots.

~ Nikola Tesla

A new idea must not be judged by its immediate results.

~ Nikola Tesla

The gift of mental power comes from God, Divine Being, and if we concentrate our minds on that truth, we become in tune with this great power.

~ Nikola Tesla

My belief is firm in a law of compensation. The true rewards are ever in proportion to the labour and sacrifices made.

~ Nikola Tesla

Despite having several groundbreaking inventions, Nikola Tesla struggled financially due to various reasons such as failed business ventures, disputes over patents, and lack of business acumen. Towards the end of his life, he lived in relative obscurity and faced financial challenges, leaving him with limited resources when he died.

Nikola Tesla (10 July 1856 - 7 January 1943 aged 83) was an inventor and a mechanical and electrical engineer. He was one of the most important contributors to the birth of commercial electricity, and is best known for his many revolutionary developments in the field of electromagnetism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Tesla never married or had children; he was to focused on his work.

The Tesla coil is one of Nikola Tesla's most famous inventions. It is essentially a high-frequency air-core transformer. It takes the output from a 120vAC to several kilovolt transformer & driver circuit and steps it up to an extremely high voltage. Voltages can get to be well above 1,000,000 volts and are discharged in the form of electrical arcs. Tesla himself got arcs up to 100,000,000 volts, but I don't think that has been duplicated by anybody else. Tesla coils are unique in the fact that they create extremely powerful electrical fields.

Part visionary, part mad scientist, and absolute genius, Tesla should be as famous as Edison - but he's been largely forgotten. Dr. Nikola Tesla was one of the most brilliant inventors of history and was of an unusual intellectual vision. He is affectionately refered to as the "Father of Free Energy".

At the 1893 World Exposition in Chicago, Tesla demonstrated the safety AC electricity was by passing high frequency AC power through his body to power light bulbs. He then was able to shoot large lightning bolts from his Tesla coils to the crowd without harm. Nikola Tesla was one of the most important engineers of his time. Although he never received a university degree, he was one of the pioneers of radio, took some of the first X-ray photographs, constructed the first radio-controlled robots, and built the first AC power system.

Nikola Tesla and his family mostly lived in various locations around Europe and the United States, including Serbia, Croatia, Hungary, France, and New York City. Tesla spent a significant portion of his adult life residing in New York City, particularly at the New Yorker Hotel.

New York State and many other states in the USA proclaimed July 10, Tesla's birthday- Nikola Tesla Day. The street sign "Nikola Tesla Corner" was recently placed on the corner of the 40th Street and 6th Avenue in Manhattan. There is a large photo of Tesla in the Statue of Liberty Museum. The Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Marconi for radio in 1909.

In December 1901, Marconi established wireless communication between Britain and the Newfoundland, Canada, earning him the Nobel prize in 1909. But much of Marconi's work was not original. In 1864, James Maxwell theorized electromagnetic waves. In 1887, Heinrich Hertz proved Maxwell's theories. Later, Sir Oliver Logde extended the Hertz prototype system. The Brandley coherer increased the distance messages could be transmitted. The coherer was perfected by Marconi.

However, the heart of radio transmission is based upon four tuned circuits for transmitting and receiving. It is Tesla's original concept demonstrated in his famous lecture at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia in 1893. The four circuits, used in two pairs, are still a fundamental part of all radio and television equipment.

The United States Supreme Court, in 1943 held Marconi's most important patent invalid, recognizing Tesla's more significant contribution as the inventor of radio technology. That Nobel prize given to Marconi, was really Nikola Tesla's Nobel prize.

Tesla born a lefty but he turned ambidextrous as he grew being able to do everything with both hands.

Nikola Tesla was known for dressing in very traditional and formal attire, often seen wearing a three-piece suit with a tie. He was meticulous about his appearance and maintained a clean and well-groomed look. Tesla was recognized for his distinctive style, which contributed to his charismatic persona.

Without Nikola Tesla, society may have developed slower in terms of electrical technology and innovation. Tesla's contributions to alternating current systems and wireless communication were groundbreaking and influenced many technologies we rely on today. The absence of his ideas and inventions would likely have delayed the progress and widespread adoption of electricity as we know it.

Nikola Tesla live in both Room 3327 and Room 3328 in Hotel New Yorker from 1933-1943. Located in Room 3327 was Tesla's safe where he locked his scientific papers including the famous "Tesla Death Rays" papers. After Tesla's death, these papers disappeared and were never found again. Tesla's nephew, Sava Kosanovich, Ambassador of Yugoslavia, enter the Hotel Room 3327 to find the safe open and scientific papers missing.
