Chautauqua: Edison and Tesla, The War of Currents (Virtual Lecture)
April 13, 2021@7:00 pm-8:30 pm
Free
In the late 19th century, three brilliant inventors, Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse, battled over which electricity system – direct current (DC) or alternating current – would power the world’s entry into the 20th century. The stakes were monumental. The battle epic. The “dirty tricks” downright dirty. And Eric Vedeler will take the “mystery” out of electricity.
