REVO Hyperion A

This is the initial design of REVO's Hyperion lantern, catering for both the high wattage SLI and SOX lamps.

The perspex bowl has now gone milky with age, but the odd bulge in near the front of the lantern was part of the original design - they never had flat bases.

Obtained from Claire Pendrous this lantern originally stood in Third Avenue, Low Hill, Wolverhampton and was removed after day burning; it was discovered that the time switch was defective.
