The two feuding geniuses waged a "War of Currents" in the 1880s over whose electrical system would power the world — Tesla's alternating-current (AC) system or Edison's rival direct-current (DC) electric power. Amongst science nerds, few debates get more heated than the ones that compare Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison. AC requires no conversion and is generated naturally by generators. DC requires rectification.
