Two additional Exide Supreme 6V high-capacity batteries introduced by Electrical Power Storage are designed primarily for replacement on Ford D series models where two 6V units are connected in series in 12V systems. But they are suitable for 6V systems where it has been necessary to connect two batteries in parallel to meet a high-capacity requirement.
The batteries have hard rubber containers and each cell has 29 heavy-duty plates of CB95 alloy and Potvic separators.
The two models are the type 414 which has a capacity of 190Ah at the 20 hour rate and the 484 with 242Ah capacity. The 414 measures 13.561n. long, 6.81in. wide and 9.44in. high, comparable dimensions on the 484 being 13.69in., 6.81in. and 11.44in. Weights are 68Ib and 86Ib respectively.
