Electric lighthouse lamps,  1949.
Titel Electric lighthouse lamps, 1949.
Caption On the left is shown a 10, 000 watt lamp, whose filament differs greatly in shape from the oil or gas flames utilised in earlier lighthouse lamps. The expensive optics used in a lighthouse would have required significant redesign if a conversion to such an electric bulb was to be made. The 5, 000 watt lamp on the right, however, which includes a Stanocil diffusing cylinder, overcame these disadvantages by surrounding the filament with a translucent cylinder of silica. A domestic 60 watt lamp is shown for comparison., 6968154
