| X4617E To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 7/T17.6.25. X.4617F 40/50 BATTERIES. This will cancel our EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 2/T20.4.25, asking for an up-to-date Exide battery to be fitted to 98-NK. In place of this, an up-to-date Exide battery is ready, when required, to be fitted to 8-EX, which we understand will be going to France for the 10,000 test. We have also a sandwich battery of standard Exide and P & R cells, designated S2, which we desire to be fitted to Mr. Royce's chassis 7-EX. EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} | ||
