Mr. G.R.N.Minchin,
50, Grosvenor Gardens,
London, S.W.1.

Dear Mr. Minchin,

Yes, I should very much like to have one of the new 60 volt H.T. batteries for test, and I hope I shall be able to have this sometime within the next fortnight. It can replace one of my 60 volt units here which is not quite up to the job on the heavy load. At the same time this load will be a suitable test on the new battery.

With regard to chassis batteries, we have just completed some charging P.D. and E.M.F. tests at various rates of charging current on various batteries, and I think you will be interested in a report I have issued in this connection, copy of which I enclose.

Yours faithfully,
