I will get Mr. Elliott to requisition some lengths
of wire suitable for the drawing boards. I think they would
do with about 6 to 8 c.p. lamps for 12 volts, highest
efficiency that will burn regularly for, say, something over
200 hours life.


Insulated wire for 5 amperes - 30 yards.
Double Flexible for 1 ampere - 30 yards.
Lamp Holders. - four
Lamps. - six (until we
see if the c.p.
if right).
Switches. - four - 1 ampere
one - 5 ampere.

Rough ammeter for reading up to 10 amperes so as

to save the Weston, and enable it to use for volts.
