Edison's  lamp became the first commercially successful incandescent lamp  (circa 1879). Edison received U.S. Patent 223,898 for his  incandescent lamp in 1880.    However, contrary to popular belief, Edison did not invent the  first lightbulb, he improved upon a 50-year-old idea. Canadians  Henry Woodward and Matthew Evans patented a light bulb in 1875, but  could not raise the financing to commercialize their invention.  Edison bought the rights to their patent.
What Edison invented was the first incandescent light that was practical, that would light for hours and hours. He and his muckers also had to invent hundreds of other parts to make the light bulbs in your home work. Light switches, electric meters, wiring--all these had to be invented too. This took several years of experiments. Ludwig Boehm of Germany carefully blew the glass to make light bulbs. Charles Batchelor of Great Britain tested one thing after another to make the filament, the tiny thread that glows inside a light bulb.
