If the battery is to be charged from a 220volt circuit, use two lamps in series in placeof each of the lamps necessary when charg-ing from 110 volts. If a 500 to 600 volt circuit is available, it isnecessary to use five lamps in series in place [49] 50 ACCU:\IULATORS of each of the lamps used when charging from110 volts. The storage batteries may be charged froma dynamo or generator, activated by a gasoHneengine, or the energy may be obtained di-rectly from a dynamo (motor generator) con-. FiG. 55.—Gas engine generating set, capable of pro-ducing 1000 watts, either in the form of 14 am-peres and 65 volts or 8 amperes and no motor makes 800 revolutions a is connected to a direct current generatingset.
