this setting up vibration. Thus if a large resistance be used, the falling back voltage must be very low, and the head-lamp series winding on the controller will need to be correspondingly fine.
Note.
The dynamo operation at 80°c and having the 16.5 w added to the field circuit was observed as follows:-
OPEN-CIRCUIT VOLTS.
Volts | 10.0 | 12.0 | 14.0 | 15.0 | 17.0
Speed | 2500 | 2650 | 2750 | 2800 | 2900
AMPERE-OUTPUT (SCHEDULED VOLTS)
Amperes | 0 | 0.5 | 0.6 | 0
Speed | 2700 | 3200 | 3600 | 3800
