Introduction of Three-Rate Charge
on 20/25 H.P. Chassis.

This is to confirm our conversation that we should reduce the amount of resistance D.73538 from 23w to 15w, to provide more output in the winter charge position.

This change brings the output similar to the two-rate charge system in its recently revised form to prevent under-charging.

Will you please let us have, as soon as possible, an output curve with this amount of resistance in the circuit.
