Re Tests on Hispano Suiza Battery.
This battery was taken off the car for test owing to it having discharged whilst standing. The results are as follows:
Low Rate Discharge through an invariable external resistance of 1.80w. Ampere hours realised = 95.6 this discharge was taken after the battery had stood for 3 days.
High Rate Discharge through an invariable external resistance of .100w
Initial amperes 111.
Time to 104 amperes = 11.4 min
" " 100 " = 13.0 "
" " 90 " = 14.2 "
" " 80 " = 15.0 "
