RE VACUUM VALVES

We understand that you brought back with you from the States, some specimens of the new vacuum valves (rectifiers, oscillators, or amplifiers). As we are very interested in these, we should like to have an opportunity of seeing these, if suitable to you.

It may be that some day we shall use these in connection with car lighting sets to limit the out-put of the dynamo running at an over-speed.
