Jumpy, night shots, a bit blurry Battery A. 63D coast artillery, shows what a chance enemy aircraft would have against its battery of gigantic searchlights. Each of the huge projectors develops 800,000,000 candle-power, the battery of them putting out a total of 4,800,000,000! (Note: several shots could be used for movie premiere, klieg lights)
