Re Tests on S2 Battery (155)
On Low Rate discharge through a constant external resistance of 1.80w, 60.6 ampere hours were realised. All cells showed positive weakness on the Cadmium.
On High Rate Discharge through a constant external resistance of .100w.
Initial amperes = 98.0
Time to 70 amperes = 4.0 min
" " 80 " = 8.5 "
All cells showed negative weakness on the Cadmium.
The D+B cells have less capacity than the Coude.
