"The Buckeye Electric company of Cleveland will shortly commence the manufacture on a large scale of a new incandescent lamp, which has recently been perfected. The filament used possesses such a high degree of elasticity that it is possible to take one in ordinary use and draw it out to a perfectly straight line and when released it will resume its normal position. From this carbon the company manufactures a lamp for high voltage circuits in which it guarantees that the filament will not droop against the bulb. The filament, as shown in the accompanying illustration, is wound in a broad curl, thereby strengthening it, and shortening the lamp from the base.A brief announcement also appeared in 18942 that described Buckeye lamps. That short article is given here verbatim."At present the company is largely engaged in the manufacture of series lamps for arc circuits."
"The Buckeye Electric company, Cleveland, O., calls attention in two circulars to its 'special' coiled filament Buckeye incandescent lamp and to the railway incandescent lamps manufactured by the company. The first named lamp is small, compact and of pleasing design and is especially adapted for decorations, steamer lighting or household lighting. It is but 4-1/2 inches long, the standard type being 5-1/2 inches. Its small size makes it particularly valuable for steamer lighting and it has been adopted upon U. S. government war ships, Atlantic liners and many lake and river steamers. The railway lamps have anchored filaments and are made specially for electric railways. They are uniform in current as well as in voltage, burn brilliantly and give long life..."References
