    Focus lantern,nickel-plated; many components look more modern than on my older Focus lantern.The fuel tank has many tiny holes , poor quality, but it lights up perfectly.
    Is it a Focus 08 ?

    It looks like a good Focus 08 that lights up properly.

    Did you make that metal cover yourself? It looks cool.

    Yes,that sort of thing is usually used for cellar windows or rat traps.
    A medium-sized moth thought it was pretty cool, too .Yet, miraculously , it found its way back outside on its own without damaging the mantle .
