| X.646 RB{R. Bowen}/P 25. 9. 13. COPY. To Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} from R.{Sir Henry Royce} Re Accumulators (J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} C. Fuller Ltd.) X.646 Copy for J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} With reference to Fuller Accumulators, I think I would leave these alone until the exides show signs of failure. I should be glad if Mr. Nadin will find out for me how the Accumulator people avoid sulphating. With reference to Fuller Accumulators, to put the active material in the large block is not considered by Accumulator people to be a [handwritten insertion: contraction] success, the expansion between the peroxide state and the spongy lead state being rather an excessive amount.
