Test on R2-6RR11-1 Battery (187)
This battery has now run 13,876 miles & has been on our bench life test 26 months.
On Low Rate discharge 69.5 ampere hours were obtained
All cells showed positive weakness.
On High Rate Discharge
Initial amperes = 107.2
Time to 104 " = 6.7 min
" " 100 " = 12.4 "
" " 90 " = 19.2 "
" " 87 " = 20.0 "
All cells showed negative weakness.
The above results are not quite so good as those previously taken.
