Default RE: New CDI - opensource project JMJ and Bigboat

I would also like to give great credit to JMJ for his major contributions to this project! It takes alot of hard work and time to achieve results with a project like this. Hy hat is off to all who contributed !

The amount of CDI units I make here in a week go to most of the club members of the TCWS. I get calls all the time for boards..mostly I would give them away and also free help with hookup. Just something I do locally for friends. There is always someone in need and I can't refuse the chance to get someone else started..

Years ago I got together with Floyd Carter to produce the RCM ignition module board...which was fun..enjoy working with someone like that..that got me started and have been doing it ever since..

For those interested in making a TCI unit, there is a kit from Velleman....K2543 which is low cost...many sources from suppliers for this kit.. I have one which I built and it works fine for cars, bikes, and is changeable from 12 volts to 6 volts with resistor changes..all info in the kit for doing that. I still think CDI is better!
