| X.4645 EFCS/T. 11th June, 1924. Mr. E.A. Watson, Messrs. The M.L. Magneto Syndicate, Victoria Works, Coventry. Dear Sir, During your recent visit to our premises, when the question of magneto requirements for our 40/50 chassis was discussed, you very kindly stated that you would furnish the undersigned with particulars of a 12,000 volt annular spark gap, and also a suitable electrostatic voltmeter for use in measuring voltages on this gap. We believe you also suggested that it might be possible to loan us one of your actual gaps. This information would be very acceptable to us at the present moment. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
