Geocache Description:


The cache is a tribute to Gustaf Dalén who was AGA's most influential president and the inventor of epoch-making lighthouse technology products including the flashing apparatus, the sun valve, the AGA compound and the Dalén mixer. In 1912 he was seriously injured and lost his sight in an accident involving a gas explosion. In the same year he was awarded the Nobel Price in Physics. Gustaf Dalén led AGA from 1909 until his death in 1937. His creative genius and boundless optimism laid the foundation for the company's development and international success.
