Default Workshops

The LRDG may have used something that was designed and built in a RASC or Corps of Signals workshop in Cairo to a particular specification given by the LRDG. The 11 set installation in those trucks was a bit of a AD HOC affair or bespoke .

I've never heard of the LRDG using a chore horse to charge batteries on Patrols so the panel would be simpler with just the option of the battery being charged by the engine. So on that basis what would it need in comparison to the C5 Panel? Power can only be supplied from the battery on the running board, or the truck battery. Maybe in an emergency another truck I suppose.
