| S.S. 98a (100 T) (S.G. 648, 19-3-20) G.{Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} 3013 X.1402. Extract from EH4/LG29.1.18. X.3054. X.3014. DYNAMO FOR WEET WITTERING X.2048 X.3231. X.1402. X.3014. X.3560. The sample Lucas dynamo we are not so very pleased with. With this in view we should like Mr. Royce to run a "Bijur" set, at W.W. as a charging set. It is no use having sets on the cars as they run no milage and what little is run is done in the daylight. We could send one of the Bijur sets to Mr. Royce adjusted to work at 12 volts we could also arrange it so that the vibrator regulator was outside and could be observed working. The vibrator appears to be the only part which is likely to give trouble but our results so far show this to be very reliable. | ||
