I am having these cells fitted to some of the Exp. cars and will be able to get some data from the tests. Chassis 2100E was in France with Mr.Royce for a long time and the Edison cells fitted to the lighting circuit gave every satisfaction. In fact the cells were taken from the car each evening and used for lighting Mr.Johnson's house. T.S.H. | ||
