X.3711.

Extract from EFC3/T6.10.20.

X.664. BATTERIES.

X.3711. Battery No.26. Multiple Storage.

Results for this battery were completely reported in EFC1/T20.8.20, adressed to Bn.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} R.{Sir Henry Royce} CJ., and EWT. for U.S.A.. This particular battery is in two 6 volt sections, the combined weight of which is double that of an ordinary 12 volt battery and therefore it is not suitable for our car.
