Professor Trowbridge has had set up in the Jefferson Physical Laboratory recently a storage battery of great power. It has a voltage of 20,000, or forty times as great as the voltage required to run an electric car. This is probably the most powerful storage battery in the world. Professor Trowbridge employs it in the experiments which he is now conducting to determine the spectrum of hydrogen. It is also used in X-ray experiments, the first use of a storage battery for this purpose.
