Re Tests on Sandwich Battery SY
This battery consists of 2 Standard Exide cells, 2 Standard P&R, 1 Oldham, & 1 Fuller. All the cells were sandwiched in a charged condition. On open circuit the cells showed practically an equal voltage of 2.1 per cell. A Low Rate Discharge through an invariable external resistance of 1.80w was taken & 59 ampere hours were realised. Then on open circuit but discharged, the cell voltages were taken & tabulated. It was then given a charge & when gassing fully the voltages were again taken & tabulated.
