A new study from the University of Michigan (UMich) researchers sheds light on a light bulb that looks similar to an ordinary ...

We tested the low-beam performance of single-filament (9003) and dual-filament (H7) bulbs from GE, Hella, Philips, and Sylvania, and PIAA's dual-filament bulb. We also compared their performance ...

At the time, other leading bulbs had a lifespan of about 50 days. Shelby Electric’s secret lay in its filaments — the thin wire in the center of an incandescent bulb, which glows when heated ...

The answer would be a combination of the right filament material and using an evacuated bulb to prevent the filament degrading. But it took over a century to get a commercially successful lightbulb.

Plot a graph of voltage, V on the y-axis v current, I, on the x-axis. For a filament bulb, voltage and current are not directly proportional as the graph is not a straight line through the origin.
