| -2- Contd It would not be satisfactory to supply you with a dynamo which was not capable of running at a voltage sufficiently high to maintain a certain degree of charge when the cells were nearing the condition of charge. However, I have written all this chiefly to indicate to you that the matter is one of considerable interest and that I greatly appreciate the trouble you have taken. Meanwhile, I have sent your letter up to the Department concerned at Derby with a few notes by myself, and I will write you further in due course; I shall be in France for two or three days next week. Sincerely yours, P.S. I think that probably your Weston voltmeter is incorrect in shewing as much as 17.5 volts, because this would mean that each cell had risen to 2.9 volts, which is improbable. | ||
