Rolls Royce Ltd., DERBY. Dear Sirs, In reply to yours of the 27th inst., EFC.4/AD, re special batteries, in view of what you say we are holding up making the special 20 H.P. battery although we have done some work on it. We note that you will be sending us an order for a 6-volt unit with burnt up connections. With regard to the end terminals on these, we think it is immaterial whether you have the posts or the screwed thread. The posts are slightly cheaper and we suggest that you choose whichever you prefer. Yours faithfully, NATIONAL ACCUMULATOR COMPANY LTD. | ||
