X.2238.- MAGNETO SPEEDOMETER.
----------------
Kindly order the following wire from The London Electric Wire Co. & Smiths Ltd.,
1/4lb. of German Silver Resistance Wire
No. 34 S.W.G. Double Silk Cover.
I find that the Concordia Co. have not the wire we require that is why I state the above Firm.
The above wire I find will be more suitable than the No. 34 Concordia, the magnet should give 100% more power.
You can wind with any suitable wire for the time being, finally winding with the above.
