Dear Sirs, Further to the Conference held at your Offices on the 22nd. inst. We have pleasure in enclosing herewith our Minutes of the Meeting which we hope indicate the main points raised. In addition we are enclosing a report on our cutout make and break test as suggested. Also our report on the variations of operating voltage caused by temperature rise. We are arranging to send to you by post tonight six of the EGO. type brush for your test and report at your early convenience. We have been into the question of fitting the Rolls-Royce type of fuse holder in the present box, but think that it is extremely difficult on account of the very limited space at our disposal. We should like to have your views on this matter as we are only too anxious to meet you in this instance if it can be done. We are preparing our estimate of the cost of conversion from the old to the lengthened type of dynamo and hope to let you have same for Monday. We would like to express our feelings of obligation in the matter and assure you of our keen anxiety to retrieve your full confidence in our products. The writer would like to express his appreciation of the attention and interest shown by all Members of the Committee and feels that a more frequent interchange of ideas in a similar manner would be most beneficial to all concerned. Yours faithfully, JOSEPH LUCAS LTD., (SGD) Oliver Lucas, Director. | ||
