Autovac Battery Feed.
Self-draining Float.
In the last par, of Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/KJL/AD.7.4.30. there is a very strong recommendation that in view of the success obtained by the Autovac company's comparatively small modification to the float, its adoption as early as possible is recommended. We would like to know if this recommendation has now come into effect.
PN.{Mr Northey}
