X.1114. - RE HALF WATT LAMPS. X.2048. X.3362

The "Mazda" half-watt lamps made by the B.T.H. of 12 volts 2 amps. 48 c.p. which we have been using in the offices at West Wittering(Henry Royce's home town) have not been a success, as they break down after burning a very small fraction of their stated life of 150 hours.

I send the foregoing information in accordance with Mr. Royce's direction.

E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
