Re Tests on ST.13 Battery (181)

This battery was removed from 9EX for bench tests after having run 3,094 miles.

On low rate discharge through a constant external resistance of 1.80w, 65.5 ampere hours were realised & all 9 cells discharged equally showing positive weakness on the Cadmium test.

After a full charge a high rate discharge was given through a constant external resistance of .100w.

Initial amperes = 106.7
Time to 104 " = 6.3 men.
" " 100 " = 10.7 "
" " 90 " = 15.0 "
" " 80 " = 16.3 "
