32-EX. PHANTOM III.

New Lucas Footswitch F.S.22/N.

Further to our telegram of to-day, we require a new footswitch so that we can return the present one for your inspection. It frequently gives a complete black out of the O.S. lamp when dimming, apparently due to poor contacts or faulty mechanism in the switch.
