Default Searchlight
The searchlight is an 18 inch model made by the General Arc Light Co, Long Island and is powered by an Onan 2 cyl 40 volt, 50 amp (2Kva) generator. The reflector is polished aluminium. Rotation and elevation is hand controlled, but carbon rod feed to maintain the Arc is automatic
