Default Glow Driver Problem

I've converted a Poulan 42cc to gas/glow and it performs well - 7300 RPM with an APC 20-8. I decided to invest in a glow driver set up, but it is not working out. Seems like it does not deliver enough current to the glow plug. The plug only gets warm/hot, but does not glow red like it needs too. I've tried both 4.8v and 6v battery packs. The on/off coupling with the throttle control works good. Do I have to make my own battery pack with larger size wiring? What do you guys think?

Thanks - jpr72c
