122941 Fane?

Post by PhilUK »

Are these Fanes? The code is 122941 with 5817 below it. Nothing on the cones. Appreciate anything you can tell me.

it looks like a mid 1980's Fane.
That is about all I can say :?:

Yes, they are Fanes (and I'm going to say from 1981). Here's a HIWATT Fane from the same era, missing its magnet cover:

I am not familiar with your model number, though.

Thanks for that, I assume they scrambled the date codes at that time with the year in the middle. Has anyone ever seen an index of Fane model codes?
