the fact is that Edison and Swan were first, and Hiram Maxim (or Latimer) was second.

READ THE FUCKING QUOTE ASSHOLE :
You could not buy useful lights until Edison started making them. The first electric lights that were actually practical to use, and you could buy, and worked well enough that people were inclined to buy them for actual use, were sold by Edison and Swan in 1880. Everything before that was an experiment or a toy.
