We have a few new additions to the timeline room. We now have a display of 3 different light
mechanisms used in the lens at the lighthouse. Starting from right to left is a 4th order Funck and Heap lamp like the one originally used in the
lighthouse. This lamp is a standard “Argand Lamp” with a 1/8th inch circular wick. In 1914 this was
replaced with an Incandescent Oil V***r light. Pressurized kerosene was heated by a bunsen burner
and injected through a jet where it was mixed with air. Heated gas filled a silk bag or mantle where it
was ignited. In 1943 an electric generator was first used to power the lighthouse lamp. Bulbs were
large 1000 watt tungsten filament light bulbs often used with a bulb changer to make lighting
dependable and automated.
