What are your views

We have tried numerous Fog Lamps out on various occasions, and now have a sample from:-

The Walmsley Patent Lamp Co. Ltd.,
160, Grays Inn Road,
W.C.1.

for which they are making big claims, details attached.

This Firm specialize in Colour Therapy and lighting problems generally.

We shall be interested to have your opinion of the lamp in due course.

It certainly looks very bulky, but possibly they would consider the production of a smaller one should it warrant further trials.
