Paul and guys,

Does anybody know how many amps the smart coils pull when charging?

I have an idea and this information would be helpful.

RX8 coil.
Over 7 amps with 5 V applied to the trigger.
That is all my power supply could handle. It reduced the PS 12 Volts to about 6 volts with 7 amps
If you leave it connected it will shut down. They are designed to be "on"
for only 4 ms.

You need a real low impedance power supply or a 12 volt battery
to make them work.


I'll let you know tomorrow as I have a motor cycle battery back at the house.
I am at the hangar now.
