  1. A bit of an update for todays modern times and maybe some corrections. Light house beacons a few at a time, are being converted to flashing LEDs, especially the off shore and other remote ones. This reduces greatly maintenance and procuring obsolete parts. LEDs are highly direction, so the do not need a rotating reflector necessarily. This also reduces power requirements. Add to that, cheaper solar energy systems. This is also true of some channel marker lights Second, some light houses are huge. The Cape Hatteress light is big enough to have special climbing days. Some lights do now flash. I now, and have for over fifty years, lived by the Norfolk (Virginia, East Coast U S) and can read nautical charts, The Thimble Shoals Light is visible across the channel from Ocean View Beaches. I am a retire electrician with a good electronics back ground.
  2. First, my setup is gaming desktop (Win 7) with twin 27" monitors running full screen (designed for flight and train simming), which I use to run my primary avatar. It is wifi coupled to a gaming laptop (Win 10) which (usually) runs my wife's/partner's avatar. If you want to run multiple avatars I would recommend this type of setup. Running multiple avatars with a single computer is a royal pain, and nearly impossible with a single monitor. Second, you need a good high speed internet connection with comperable wifi. I have tried both the S L viewer and the Firestorm viewer in various combinations, and I have found that Firestorm on both computers works the best. You might get different results. The bottom line is speed and horsepower. I hope that this helps.
  3. First, you need a good high speed internet connection, along with the requeset wi-fi setup. The rest of this may or may not be applicable. The only two that I have successfully used are the standard S L viewer and Firestorm. I have tried every combination possible with these two. S L viewer works well by it self, but not in "multiple viewer" mode, sometimes it can get strange, for lack of better terms. Firestorm works much better.
