DO NOT REMOVE THE ONLY ACCUMULATOR IN THE WORLD WITH PLATE-GRIDS MADE OF PURE LEAD -- with the Plate Grids Die Cast and Pasted entirely by machinery. Without Wood Separators or Celluloid, eliminating internal resistance and heat which shortens the life of other makes of -plates, and creating constant trouble. TUNGSTONE pure Lead Grid
OBUST Machine-made Plates permit charge and Discharge .at Continuous High Rates with Safety, No possibilities of the Plates Buckling or short-circuiting in service. No Fire or Explosion Risks when Charging above Normal Rates. A Tungstone Battery is not fully charged unless the Acid shows fully 1300 Sp.G. Tungstone Robust Machine Made Plates are in best condition when always kept fully charged.
VERY IMPORTANT ADVICE TO MOTORISTS. Arrange for Car Dynamo output to be permanently increased so that at a car speed of 20 miles per hour the continuous charging rate is as follows, viz.: 40 a.h. Battery minimum charging rate is 8 amps. 50 a.h. ., .. ,. 10 amps. 75 a.h...... 15 amps. Tungstone Machine Made and Pasted Plates are Heavier and Stronger than any other make of Plate, and therefore can be continuously charged at these higher rates than any other make of battery.
Tungstone Plate Grids being made of Pure Lead. and the Paste of Pure Lead Oxides, ensures exceptional storage capacity and quick discharges. therefore provision is made to give continuous, ample and generous power for Self-starting without cranking. Follow these instructions and you permanently get the full benefits of the originality of Tungstone Design and Manufacture of a Pure Lead Plate and Grid giving exceptional Strength, Storage, Dependability. Reliability, Security, and Safety.
CHARGING HIGH TENSION AT 12-16 VOLTS POTENTIAL. All H.T. Tungstone Accumulators are fitted with a Patent Equipment whereby each series of 12 Volts can be coupled in parallel so that these H.T. Batteries of whatever voltage can be charged at local Garages and Charging Stations on a 12-16 Volt Low Tension Charging Plant. Charging Terminals are provided on the front of the Cabinet arranged in two rows. the top row being Positive and the bottom row Negative. When in use these charging terminals are connected inl pairs so that all cells are in series.
