Item Details
Description
* EDISON, Thomas (1847-1931). Autograph note signed ("Edison"), to Holland. N.p., 13 November 1911.

1 page, 4to, some creasing, light marginal chipping, some minor staining or browning. "Once in a whole look at Nickel plates as they are Gerry assembled...sometimes there will be changes made unconsiously." Edison patented and commercialized the Nickel-Iron (NiFe) battery in 1901. He offered it as a potential energy source for electric vehicles, and he claimed the design was superior to the lead-acid battery. NiFe was ultimately not adopted to start internal combustion engines, and electric vehicles went out of production a few years after his battery was introduced.
