Second Strike is the only ignition system to provide a powerful second spark throughout the entire RPM range, unlike other multiple spark discharge systems, which typically drop off to one spark at about 3000 RPM. This micro controller based ignition supplements most inductive type systems (points, GM HEI, Ford TFI and Duraspark, Ignitor® and Ignitor II) with a powerful capacitive discharge second spark resulting in more complete combustion of the fuel/air mixture. Increased burn time at very high RPM levels also reduces misfires resulting in more peak horsepower and torque. No special distributor or coil is required. A simple five-wire hookup to your existing system completes the installation.
Second Strike’s unique crank angle offset (CAO) feature permits you to time the second spark in crank angle degrees to occur after the primary spark with a simple external adjustment dial. A wide range of adjustment (2 to 18°) allows you to experiment with the CAO that works best for your engine’s performance or your driving profile. The CAO feature can be operated while the engine is running to assist experimentation for optimum settings.
The Second Strike also features a built-in digital rev limiter, to protect the engine from overrev conditions. Set your desired RPM limit with two easy to use rotary dials. One spark after the rev limit is exceeded, the digital rev limiter controls RPMs by randomly stealing sparks, reducing plug fouling common with other limiters. Second Strike's tack output is compatible with most modern tachometers and requires no interface adapters.
Features and Specifications:
An adaptive voltage feature prevents overdriving the primary ignitions system's coil with excessive voltage.
To prevent overheating, a low voltage cutout ceases the Second Strike's operation when voltage drops below 9.5 volts without affecting the primary system's operation.
Voltage protection prevents damage if the battery ground leads are ever reversed.
Compatible with 4, 6 and 8 Cylinder engines.
Adaptive voltage output ranges from 200 to 800 volts.
Operates on 9.5 to 18 volts and draws no current until the engine is running.
Compact (4"X 6"X 3") and lightweight (2.3 Lbs) makes either under-hood or in-car installation simple.
Legal in all 50 states and Canada (C.A.R.B. E.O. #D-57-9).
Application Information:
For use with 12 volt negative ground, 4, 6 or 8 cyli
