Later the beam was powered by kerosene, and the light was rebuilt at least twice more over time and on until the beacon building was installed in 1898 with the first lighthouse keeper, eventually the kerosene light was replaced by an oil vapor light, after much more history the lighthouse is now maintained as a historic landmark.
