X.664 - BATTERIES.

Battery No.60 U.S.A. Exide 6 LXR/9/1.

This battery is very similar to the British Exide except for the fact of having burnt up connections. It has done well on our tests. It will be noticedthat the internal resistance of the battery is rather high. It is suggested that this battery be put on 7 -CA.
