This battery has been on our bench test 36 months & has run 9,262 miles
On Low Rate Discharge through a constant external resistance of 1.30w
76.5 ampere hours were obtained.
All cells shewed positive weakness.
On High Rate Discharge through a constant external resistance of .100w
Initial amperes = 104.2
Time to 104 " = 1.5 min
" " 100 " = 7.5 "
" " 90 " = 18.3 "
" " 86 " = 20.0 "
All cells shewed negative weakness.
Signed J.J.
