| 86107 E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} From Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Wst. c. to Roy. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Wst.6/MA.28.9.33. BATTERIES. Referring to Roy. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} 5/MG.27.9.33 we could not entertain the idea of using the Bentley type of battery on the 20/25 until such times as we have a vibrator controlled dynamo system as the thinner plates in the Bentley battery with the use of the third brush dynamo would have much less life.
