Hobson Componets Ltd., 47-55 The Vale, Acton, LONDON, W.3. For the attention of Mr. Reigate. Dear Sir, In reply to your query of the 18th instant regarding the sample KS Electric Gauge which you supplied, this is now fitted up in a car and we will give you an opinion about it when it has had some service. The criticism so far is that the scale on the instrument is rather short for the sized tank we use and the calibration correspondingly rough. Yours faithfully, For ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
