They j;ic more ctsi centrated light with less glare or diffusion of rays than can be had from any other spotlight. The KayBee spotlight reflector is the reason. It ia d'fferent from that used in "other nukes and is a recent discovery. This reflector is formed and set differently with regard to the light producing filament in the globe. The white flood of light produced by the Kayliec is as straight as a penc.l ami spans great distances. A thumb Switch is conveniently located on all Kayltee Spotlights just bock of the reflector. No other Spotlight on the market offers this feature. Our KayBee reflector concentrates and projects the light rays into tho most powerful and brilKant beam of light ever produced by a G-volt 24- C. P. lump. Nitro globes are regular equipment in all KayBee lamps. Under average fair weather 'conditions and with proper quantity of electric current, one enn read a newspaper by night with the KayBee at distances ranging from one-half to three-quarters of a mile. The more efficient reflector construction of the KayBee means greater safety in driving to you and " increased economy of current.
