Curious why you say that? Edison is one of the greatest pieces of shit in inventor history. He has stolen more ideas and put so many small inventors out of business it would boggle your mind. I think he would be salivating at the current state of affairs for electricity and copyright law.

Edison was a huge proponent of DC power, so hooking him up to an AC device would endlessly annoy him.
