It's no secret that the first automobiles were started by hand cranking. It's also pretty obvious that, somewhere along the way, someone replaced the hand crank with an electric motor. In 1911, a friend of Henry Leland, founder of Cadillac, died from injuries sustained while restarting a car for a lady. The need for a starting method that did not risk personal injury became obvious to Leland. He commissioned Charles Kettering, head of Dayton Electrical Company (Delco today), to come up with a better method. That better method developed was the electric starter motor. By 1912, electric starters were standard on all Cadillacs. The "Bendix" on the starter has a bit of it's own history as well. It was named after Vincent Bendix who designed and patented it in 1910. Between Kettering's electric starter in 1912 and Vincent Bendix's starter drive, we now have the standard starter used in automobiles around the world today. Over the years, size, shape, voltage ratings and control methods have changed. In spite of those changes, the starter operation and design has remained overall the same for nearly a century.
