Question

Though I might sound like the devil,

I'm not at all evil,

I might even enlighten,

With the right companion.

I eat what you breathe,

I release many amps,

In lightning I live,

And many other lamps.

So name me here,

Name me now,

So I may cheer,

And take a bow.

Electrons or electricity

Sorry no.

A BULB?

Not this either.

Sorry that I didn't post my answer under "Spoiler." This is my first time responding.

It's okay. Just make sure you do next time. Welcome to our big BD family. :)

Though I might sound like the devil,crackling/deep/hard to say, I've never personally heard the devil. I'd have to assume it just means a generally 'bad' or 'scary' sound

I'm not at all evil,

I might even enlighten,

potential to cause light

With the right companion.

Needs a catalyst (I think it's referring to oxygen again)

I eat what you breathe,

Oxygen (other things of course, but this is usually what's referred to)

I release many amps,

Electricity

In lightning I live,

Light/Heat/Electricity

And many other lamps.

Same, light/heat/electricty

So name me here,

Name me now,

So I may cheer,

And take a bow.

Based on all of this, I'm going to have to say heat, or maybe more specifically: fire.

Very good thinking. You're on the right track, but that's not quite it.

Sounds liiikke - :blink:

Ozone

Not the ozone.

Claps (of thunder)

No, sorry.

thunder

Nope.

I believe it's Fire (or Flames)

Am I right?

Fire (or Flames)
.

Same as above. Getting there, just warm.

Match?

bomb?

Sorry, no matches.

Here's a hint:

Named after the angel,

Fallen from grace,

This piece of puzzle,

Will help you win the race.

Hope that helps. The closest so far is KC Traceur's reasoning.

More specifically

plasma.....

.............then i don't know why plasma would take a bow or cheer. Is that an informative part of the puzzle or just filigree?

That's just filigree.

:)

Sadly no. In one sense, you are on the right track;

Science.

Lumen or Lux... Lucifer was the lightbringer. It's a measurment of light. There are several ways of naming and defining light(sources), but i thing Lux fits the best.

Lucifer

You're on the right track! But not quite there yet.

Sadly no. But you're on the right track too.

You had better be highly precise with this or i am going to rip you a new one. Its driving me crazy!

Quantum electro dynamics?

Nope. It's not it. Well, precise, hmm. Let's say the clues do allude to this. I've tweaked the riddle, added one stanza here and there;

Though I might sound like the devil,

I release many AMPs,

In lightning I live,

And many other lamps.

The lightning you see,

Is not from the heavens,

But from creepy crawlies,

And lamps from deep havens.

So name me here,

Name me now,

So I may cheer,

And take a bow.
