[edit] Strength of searchlight

Was the strength of the searchlight 2700 million or 2.7 million candela? This page says "2.7 million candlepower", which is 2.7 million candela. Searchlights today all seem to be in the range of hundreds of thousands to millions of candela, so an airborne searchlight in the 1940s with a strength a thousand times this seems unlikely.

My reference (Green, William. Famous Bombers of the Second World War, 2nd Edition. London: MacDonald & Jane's,1975. ISBN 0-356-08333-0.) definitely says 2,700 million candlepower. Whether it's a misprint or not I don't know. Ian Dunster 08:53, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
