My collection: Top-entry thorn beta 5

This is my Thorn Beta 5 top-entry street light. It has got a very old REVO bracket on top of it and has a plastic clip on it instead of the older metal ones. I got this for free from the Surrey highways depot and it also runs on a 35w SOX lamp.

Here is the beautiful REVO bracket.

Here is the zodion photocell.

Here is the inside of the lantern, you can see the SOX lamp and the sticker. Also, the sticker boasts the Thorn EMI label, meaning that it was made between 1984 and 1986.

Also, the lamp holder support is very rusty and there is a crack going through the lamp holder.

Here is the gear.  It looks to have a replacement ignitor as it does not have the thorn EMI label on it.

This is the Philips 35w SOX bulb. it is one of the newer ones as it has the etch on the base of the lamp.
