[D8337A], Letter from Societe Electrique Edison, Joshua Franklin Bailey to Thomas Alva Edison, January 2nd, 1883

Editor's Notes

Visited by French Army officer in charge of optical telegraphy. Wants intense, compact, sturdy, and lightweight electric light. What do you suggest? Battery? TAE marg: "We can make a 100 or 150 candlepower lamps the whole of light coming from area one inch & 1/2. A faure battery would probably answer. Light would require 2600 ft lbs per minute."
