| Fm/RC. {R. Childs} 4/SHT. 28th October, 1940. Messrs. Dagenite Co., Ltd., Peto & Radford, 50, Grosvenor Gardens, LONDON S.W. 1. Dear Sirs, Will you kindly provide us with full particulars of your 6G X 7G type battery. We are particularly interested in the high rate discharge charactistics, etc.. under cold conditions. Have you in view a lighter 6 HZD9-S type battery suitable for automobile work? We are in search of a lighter battery and would prefer one with a capacity of about 45 A.H. at the ten hour rate, than drop to the 38 A.H. capacity of the 6G X7G type. Yours faithfully, | ||
