Title
[D8249ZBB], Letter from Charles Turner Hughes to Thomas Alva Edison, October 19th, 1882
Editor's Notes
110 volt car armature will run 700 rpm, can be belted to run driving wheel 350 rpm, to give 30 mph, but I'm afraid it won't do it. Think the clutch is too delicate to withstand sudden engagement at that rpm. Magnets for passenger car motor have arrived. Will need larger reverser to withstand spark when breaking current from 4 machines at once.
