Ben.. Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Hi What battery would a WS11 have used in late 1939/40 when fitted in a carrier as part of the BEF? I'm struggling to find good references but think it would have been a wooden box type and stored in the rear compartment battery box. Could any of you supply photos or details please? Thanks Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Ben have you not got Nigel Watson's "Universal Carrier" Vol 1 covers the 11 set in a MK1. My MK2 has a 19 set. But I have a WS11 in my Morris. I have original drawings which shows 2 x 6 volt batteries (wooden box's) and 2 more as back up whilst 1 pr are being charged up. So far in about 15 years I have found only two 6 volt box's (1942 and 1945) and added a 12 volt box for effect. You are correct the batteries in a MK1 are stored in the rear stowage box. If you send me your email by PM, I'll send you what info I have. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
