BY/NHW. from EFC. X8782 EFC2/T3.4.28. Below is an extract from Mr. Royce's note RL/M23.3.28 :- "We should more glaringly point out that wherever there is trouble of too little charge, a very small charging current should be run through the battery while the car is in the garage. Under some circumstances there is no other way of meeting the difficulty, because a bigger dynamo will charge the battery too quickly, and sometimes too much, resulting in destruction." Presumably this refers to the Instruction Book. EFC. | ||
