The first of the ModelIgnition.com inductive ignition coils was wound on June 21, 2011. The coil was wound by hand as each production ignition coil available on this site is. The coil cores are hand laminated silicon-steel to provide the hottest spark from the smallest coil. This allows us to keep the quality up to our standards and offer the best model ignition components available. We accomplish this by watching as every turn of the wire is laid on the pre-formed bobbin. These are not mass-produced ignition coils from overseas repackaged as model ignition components, but true miniature ignition coils designed for model engineers.
The standard ModelIgnition.com coil is 1.250" long and apprx 0.990" in diameter. It comes with 6" leads color coded for use with our buzzcoil ignition boards (orange is coil+, blue is coil-). The high tension lead is 4" in length. As with any coil, do not operate without some form of spark path available, either plug or air gap. Failure to do so will cause the coil to arc internally and fail. Custom double high tension leads for dual plugs can be made to order.
The Videos of coil tests can be found under the 'Videos' tab on the sidebar.
