The floodlight with stand actually has a history of development. The military use of searchlights began in the 19th century. During the Russo-Japanese War, both naval warships used searchlights to search for enemy small torpedo boats at night. Searchlights are also commonly found in coastal artillery positions and air defense forces. In the First World War, John Frederick Charles Fuller used searchlights for the first time to create so-called "artificial moonlight" to assist night battles. The same tactics were used in World War II.
During the Second World War, searchlights were used extensively in night air attacks against the enemy. At that time, the anti-aircraft artillery used two searchlights at the same time. From the elevation angle of the searchlights, the exact height of the enemy bomber could be calculated by trigonometric functions, and then used to set the anti-aircraft artillery tube to achieve the maximum effect. Searchlights can also cause considerable interference to bombers using optical bomb sights.
The searchlight manufactured by General Electric during World War II used a gyroscope ceremonial lamp holder, a 152.4 cm diameter rhodium-plated concave disc mirror, a carbon arc light source with a peak output of 800 million light, and a dedicated 15 kilowatt generator for effective illumination. The distance can reach 45 to 56 kilometers.
Due to the development of electronic surveillance equipment technology, the military use of searchlights is declining. Nowadays, most of them are used for advertising, such as promotion activities of car dealers, movie premieres, etc. The floodlight manufacturer is also us, welcome to consult and contact us.
