Hi,
I have the task of constructing a Motorcycle Ignition H.T.Coil Tester.
Now i have been reading some of the posts on here and quite frankly your all very very clever as apposed to my Electronics skill level of -100 as m y user id suggests.
You guys may be able to help me
Does anyone here understand the principle of a Motorcycle coil and how it produces a spark as i need to construct a tester that will power the coil with a 12v feed about 6 ish Amps and make and break the earth side of the connection exceedingly fast.
I have an idea that i need in the circuit a 555 Timmer IC and some sort of transformer to step down from 240v to 12v as i wish to power from the domestic mains supply.
Does any of this make sense
A circuit diagram wouuld be Kin marvelous me thinks
