V7535P To Roy.{Sir Henry Royce} from EFC. c.c. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} EPC5/T15.2.28. P & R BATTERY IN TWO 6 VOLT UNITS. With reference to your enquiry re the new two unit battery in frame for the Sports cars. This has been instructed from W.W. and here independently of this Department. In the circumstances I do not feel called upon to concern myself with the question of adoption. It is true there has so far been no 10,000 mile test and little running of the proposed arrangement previous to putting such test in hand. EPC. | ||
