What is another word for davy lamps?
Pronunciation: [dˈe͡ɪvi lˈamps] (IPA) 
Davy lamps were one of the early forms of mining lamps used by miners to provide illumination to underground coal mines. Though the name Davy lamps has become synonymous with this early technology, they have also been referred to using other terms, such as safety lamps, flame safety lamps, miners' lamps, or underground lamps. These lamps were originally invented by Sir Humphry Davy in 1815 and gained popularity due to their ability to mitigate the risk of explosions in coal mines. Over time, the design and technology for mining lamps advanced, and today, miners use a variety of lighting systems to keep themselves safe while working in the dark recesses of the earth.
