ELECO HW-851 Lantern Installations

The ELECO HW-851 was introduced in the 1950s to comply with BS 1788/1951. These lanterns featured a one-piece LM6 aluminium casting to form the body, and a dome-refractor held in by clips with totally-enclosed springs. These open-type lanterns could run: 100W-200w GLS, or 80W-125W MB/U of MBF/U lamps.

Derby

This example is located off Queen Street, where it is mounted on the side of a closed-down factory. The lantern is situated on a corner-wall-bracket that would ordinarily be used for Coughtrie lanterns (or something similar).

The lamp was smashed some-time before 2020.
