On 19-FX. we have fitted a voltage controlled dynamo. The reason for doing this is because we think it has been agreed that ultimately we shall adopt this type of control, therefore we think it is useful to get some experience of running cars with this control. We have now one car running with C.A.V. Bosch, one Scintilla, and one with the German Bosch. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
