You are right — considering that Edison demonstrated the light bulb publicly for the first time on December 31, 1879, and
Gunsmoke was set in the 1890s, so there’s no way that the light bulb had made it to Dodge City yet.
And — not only are you historically correct, but your double entendre is perfect. (Thanks for playing.
