| X6005 G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} W. Hancock from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Hotel de France, Chateauroux, Indre, France. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.6/AD26.11.31. 18-GIV ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT We have passed on your recommendation re windscreen wiper to Messrs. Lucas. With regard to the dynamo output we quite agree that now the 25 HP. is capable of high speeds extra driving light is necessary and a higher night output of the dynamo will be necessary. However, it is practically impossible with this smaller machine in its present form to produce the same output as the larger Phantom II dynamo. We shall have to fit the larger machine also to the 25 HP. if the same electrical loads are met with. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
