Thorn Beta 5

The final version of the Beta 5 ever made by Thorn, this particular one is dated to 2004. One of the most ubiquitous lanterns in the UK ever, the Beta 5 found popularity across Cornwall until a county wide replacement began in 2009 to replace all SOX lamps with new Cosmoplis lanterns.

The lantern is shown with a Royce Thompson RF cell.
