Lighthouse light

The upper light of a pair of HB LED lights (with Polycarb aspheric lens) in Mull of Galloway Lighthouse. Made by Sealite. This lighthouse is (possibly?) the only one in Scotland which is active but you can climb to the top of the tower. The museum staff take control of the light and set it to manual when they are showing people round in order to avoid people being blinded by an automatic turn on of the light!
