Solar Navigator's
crew will be issued with waterproof hand held torches
similar to that shown above. Ultimately, the
energy used for lighting will be derived from the ships
solar panels and stored onboard in batteries. Hand
held units may be fast charged from the ships batteries,
or plugged directly into hull mounted sockets, connected
to the ships batteries.
5 million candle power hand
held torch
Solar
Navigator is to be equipped with 8 ship's search
lights of some 3.5 million candle power each, four
forward and four aft. The
combined lighting power of 28 million candle power will
probably make Solar Navigator the worlds
most powerful mobile solar powered lantern afloat and a
match for some of the most powerful Light
Houses in the world. This incredible lighting
array may be remotely controlled (aimed) from the
command module to provide lighting for night diving,
shore landing, anchoring, search and other routine
activities.
