Re Tests on Exide 6RR5-3 Battery (174)
This battery was removed from the m {Mr Moon / Mr Moore} /s. for bench tests.
On low rate discharge through a constant external resistance of 1.30w 81.0 ampere hours were obtained, the cells showing positive weakness on the Cadmium.
On high rate discharge through a constant external resistance of .100w
Initial amperes = 106.0
Time to 1.0v " = 5.2 min
" " 1.00 " = 13.5 "
" " .90 " = -
" " .80 " = -
All cells showed negative weakness on the Cadmium.
Signed: G.J.
