Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electric Light for Country Houses: A Practical Handbook on the Erection and Running of Small Installations, With Particulars of the Necessary Cost of Plant and Working The author hopes to shew, in the course of this little book, how country and suburban residences may be lighted even more cheaply than they can be by gas, and very little, if at all, in excess of the cost of lighting by paraffin oil lamps, - to say nothing of the coolness, cleanliness, and absolute safety of the electric light when it is properly installed. It must also be remembered that the electric glow lamp consumes no oxygen whatever, nor does it give off any waste pro ducts of combustion. An ordinary gas light consumes as much oxygen in an hour as six full-grown people! It is needless to bring forward any further evidence in favour of electric light from a sanitary point of view. Some faddists - particularly those connected with gas companies - have stated that the eyesight is injured by the electric light. In some few cases there may have been some grounds for this assertion, as naked lights were used, and no attempts were made to soften or diffuse the glare. Who would think of using a paraffin, or even a gas lamp, without a globe or shade, especially when in close proximity to the eyes? The cost of installation in the author's case, where there are in all sixteen lamps in use, did not exceed £90, including an iron shed for the engine and dynamo; but there were special circumstances which allowed the work to be done at this very low cost. These will be referred to later on. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
