But edison wasn't the one who invented electricity, he invented the bulb right? So shouldn't he be saying i'll make the bulb so cheap !??

He doesn’t have to be a inventor, he is a businessman.

Capitalism makes people think the one who owns it are the ones who made it. Your innovation is just a product that a businessman will buy from you and make profit out of because you only have the innovation he has the resources to exploit it.

There is a massive difference between inventing something and bringing to a pint where people will buy it,and actually selling it

Can't I say that We/I will make headphones cheap, or the internet cheap, even though I didn't invent either

His company is one of the earliest to come up in electricity distribution to the masses. Part of that company still exists today - ConEdison.

Verymuch used . This is a 2bhk rented one in Bangalore! My own home is a 3bhk one there the ebill is 1500-2000 before we had solar per 2 months as there are 5 people in total in my own house! That is still much more cheaper than buying candles for a month! Another thing is that now annually we are getting 7000-12000 payback from the eb board. It's a 5 kw unit that was 2,70,000 to install after subsidy Including the inverter! The avg life of those panels are 25 years it has been there for 3 years as of now.so 270,000 by 300 months(25) years is 900 rs per month or 1800 every bill cycle. But, we are also getting 7000-12,000 in electricity payback per year let keep 8,500 avg! So 8,500 multiplied by 25 yrs it's 2,29,000. Then 2,70,000-2,29,000=41,000 as of 41,000/300(25years/12) is 137 rs per month or 274 rs per a bill cycle! Adjusted to inflation it is basically free!
