It's sometimes just assumed that a higher voltage system means brighter bulbs. Let's remember that a bulb rated at 32 candlepower at 6 volts provides the same illumination as a bulb rated at 32 candlepower at 12 volts.
Owen Thank you. Yes 32CP is 32CP. I could see this one being carried on by the 6 volt verses 12 volt guys for weeks. You will understand this joke we had on the wall of our electronics shop on the Kitty Hawk. It said in big red letters [flash=,]
CAUTION 20,000 OHMS[/flash]. You would be surprised how many people were very carful not to touch anything around that sign.
