Repro WS No 19 Cdn battery box

Chris, it's made for the 11 set wireless. Would that run on 6 or 12 volts ? The metal box on the back of the attached carrier diagram holds the 11 set wireless battery, labelled N014.

Hmmm... WS11 can run from either 6 or 12 volts, depending on the supply unit fitted. It can also run (as the Low Power set) from a 6 volt battery for LT and a 240 v primary battery box - WftW Volume 1 reckons that was only used for the ground station, though.

It also reckons that the usual vehicle station used a pair of 6-volt 85 amp hour Mk.II batteries, so would be 12 volts input and possibly the HP version with both supply units.

Either way, Battery Secondary Portable 6V 85AH Mk.II seems to be what you want.

Further thoughts.... The box almost certainly holds a pair of 6V 85AH batteries, side by side, as they would also suit the later WS19 installation. See the third photograph in this post: http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...16&postcount=1
