How many lumens is the spotlight on a helicopter?

[Jay_Ev]

Hey all,

Just for fun & my own general knowledge, approximately how many lumens is the spotlight (A.K.A. the "night sun") on a police helicopter? For those who may not know what I'm talking about, it's the light mounted on a helicopter that they shine on a fleeing suspect during a police chase at night time. Thanks,

-Jay

Thanks, Burgess. I guess I didn't bother to use the search function because I thought my question was so outlandish and ridiculous that no one would have asked it before. I was wrong! That link you provided was an interesting read, thanks for steering me in the right direction.
