battery for its weight.

Regarding lamps for lighting installation at W.W.
we think thatthe first lamp delivered must be an exception
through having a faulty vacuum. This matter has been taken up
with the C.A.V. firm who supplied these lamps, but the sa answer
is not yet to hand. We think you may find all the three others
sent to be O.K.

Regarding 12 volt non-trembler ignition for the car
This can be arranged in the most economical way by fixing, first
of all, upon a speed of operation which is to represent the
average, and then arranging our constants of the circuit so that
when the engine runs up to 2000 r.p.m. the ignition is still
sufficiently powerful to remain in satisfactory operation.
