Another important innovation from Chance Brothers was the introduction of rotating optics, allowing adjacent lighthouses to be distinguished from each other by the number of times per revolution that the light flashes. John Hopkinson, the noted English physicist and engineer, invented this system, while employed at Chance Brothers.

Storm spotters and meteorologists use these flashes to spot tornadoes which would otherwise be invisible due to rain or darkness. [1] They can be distinguished from lightning by the fact that they originate at ground level, the blue or green color of the flash, and depending on distance, the sound of high-voltage lines shorting out. Power ...
Either a quick or a very quick sequence of light flashes may be used; the choice allows for two similar nearby marks to be uniquely identified by their lights. A cardinal mark may be used to accomplish the following: Indicate that the deepest water is an area on the named side of the mark; Indicate the safe side on which to pass a danger
Each room has an outlet from the duct system, often mounted in the floor or low on the wall – some rooms will also have an opening into the cold air return duct. Depending on the age of the system, forced-air gas furnaces use either a pilot light or a solid-state ignition system (spark or hot surface ignition) to light the natural gas burner. [3]
