Gill GE50C for current usage (and four Optimas crammed in the tail gunner's turret...but don't tell anyone).

Anyone know what company, or companies, made the batteries for the B-29? Thanks. |

The Maintenance and Erection Manual (revised 20 February 1945) that I have doesn't list manufacturers in the specifications, but it does refer to the battery as a "G-1, 34 ampere-hour, 24 volt battery". I don't know if the "G-1" designation would help to find the production source, but it's all I have. Scott |

Measure the space you have and I think you will find that four 12v 75ah batteries connected series parallel will give you all the power you need. KEN |
