E.F.L X7535 30-9-30 JD{J. Draper - Frames}97. X7535 Charging Voltages. The latest information re charging voltages on our std 41/50 batteries is as follows. The voltage of the P&R is still slightly higher than the Exide by about 0.2 volt per 12 volt battery. It is also notable that at a normal temperature of 50°F the P.D. of the Exide rises quicker than the P&R with increased charging current resulting in a similar voltage being sustained on both batteries, whilst at a high temp: of 100-115°F the P&R rises the quicker & results in a higher voltage than on the Exide. Curves showing these results are attached. G.J. | ||
