Re. VIBRATOR CONTROL.

Answering your Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}4/M5.5.33., the position of vibrator controlled dynamos for our chassis is as follows:-

Bensport.

The first 15 chassis are to be equipped with the 40/50 vibrator dynamo so that it can be assumed that Bensport will be launched on production with vibrator control.

40/50 Chassis.

Our bench tests on the dynamo and regulator proposed for this chassis and Bensport are completed and as soon as sufficient mileage has been covered a standardization sheet will be issued.

20/25 Chassis and Peregrine.

Our bench tests on the dynamo for 20/25 HP. chassis are not yet complete but we have equipped 18.G.4 with a similar system and at the completion of the 10,000 mile test we shall be in a position to issue a standardization sheet providing tests prove satisfactory.
