LABORATORY ENDURANCE TEST OF WATFORD
KW6. MAGNETO, No.105302.

Please find attached copy of my assistant's report WC.99 with reference to this endurance test which we have previously referred to in our magneto reports. It will be seen that the magneto has, taken all round, done pretty well on this test.

A similar test of the Robert Bosch type FU.6. magneto is now in progress.
