George Stephenson's Geordie Lamp

Origin
George Stephenson (1781 - 1848) was an English civil and mechanical engineer who built the first public inter-city railway line in the world to use steam locomotives, the Liverpool and Manchester Railway which opened in 1830. Stephenson was known as the "Father of Railways". In 1815 Stephenson realized that mine explosions were often caused in mines by naked flames so he experimented with a safety lamp that would burn in a gaseous atmosphere without causing an explosion. Despite his lack of scientific knowledge, by trial and error, Stephenson devices a lamp in which the air entered through tiny holes where the flames of the lamp could not pass. At first he was threatened with a lawsuit in which he was accused of stealing another scientist's idea, however he proved that his "Geordie lamp" was his own idea.

Effects
Night Vision, the light given off by the lamp basks the area in the green light of night vision.
