Condenser for points...HOLY MOLY!!!

This is probably the ideal capacitance (i.e 0.27 microFarads) fot the Honda ignition. In stock too .. I am tempted. ;D

No doubt it will work fine since it meets the uF and voltage spec and can handle the temperature. It would just be a function of how/where to mount it depending on its size. Let us know how it goes! :)

Cheers .. I think I would need to mount it on a small PCB. I do have a few PCBs that may do the job that I mounted shock sensors on for another job.

Well it seems I may be on the right lines :) https://brightsparkmagnetos.com/products/pages/about
Ha ha you have SPARKED my enthusiasm. :D

For the non purist and mentality inept sparky, would one of those options work on our Honda ignition? Refers to compatability with battery "Kettering" setups?

Yes the standard Honda ignition is a 'Kettering' type ignition system.

Intrigued by the Kettering name / person. He also invented the electric self starter! And much else.

Out of interest: wouldn't high frequency/micro vibrations be an issue?
Like de-laminating the tracks from the GFK, cracking the soldering spots or component internals?
