X.3231. RE BIJUR DYNAMO. X.3762. X.3362. X.435.

With reference to the Bijur dynamo, I am quite
in agreement with you sending the one from 49-GB, t o
replace the one which is here belonging to the Packard Car.
It should be ready to fit the same bracket as the plant is
in daily use for the office.
X.3533. Mr. Clark may be coming next week and might bring
this together with other electrical parts which will serve
for models, to guide same calculations. We are allowing
for 60 watts as the output for the 20 HP. car dynamo, i.e.
12 volt 5 amps, cutting in at 8 to 900 revs = 600 engine revs.
Will this be about right for a small limousine ? R
