Tests on PRRRNH/374 Battery 215/6.
This battery is now 1 year 7 months old & has run 19,903 miles on the road.
On Low Rate Discharge 55.5 ampere hours were realised & all the cells shewed positive weakness.
On High Rate Discharge
Initial amperes = 109.7
Time to 104 " " = 10.5 min
" " 100 " " = 15.2 "
" " 93.6 " " = 20.0 "
All cells showed negative weakness on this test.
Both of the above results are very good & shew the battery to be capable of further service.
