Re: Electronic Ignition for 23rd series w/288 ci

Lets look back at post #6 and #10 by Tobbs and Packard49 on the 1st page of this thread. Trigger voltage for the e-ignition is about 5.2 volts. That is based on a variety of sources including this forum.

However, it begs the question:
For e-ignition kits supposedly made for SIX volt systems then why isn't such a kit designed for something like 2.5 or maybe 3 volts trigger voltage instead of retaining the trigger spec for 12 volt systems????? I've never been able to get an answer to that question and i'm not exactly an EE so i havn't got a clue.
