Volta: Life
Alessandro Volta first invented this device called the electrophorus which created static electricity. Later a man "found out" animal electricity by having an electrical crurrect run up its leg which would intenially have a muscle spasm. Volta challenged this idea thus creating the battery. Then the battery was used for many items now and later considering any mobile device that you carry right now is powered by the battery. -

Volta still continued to improve and adjust the battery until is is perfect by using different types of materials and metals. Volta failed MANY times while creating this battery just to prove a point that "animal electricity" is fake and that Galvani is wrong. -
Patent Cotton Gin

Eli has now learned from his mistakes and tries to revolutionize the musket buisness and strive from it. During these times it was common for good companies to only create about 2,000 muskets per year, but for Elit that wasn't an option. With his newfound idea that made manufacturing the musket faster and easier, they made over 10,000 muskets in two years. -
