Thanks for the kind words Ron, yep a techy or engineering type can understand and appreciate this energy n physics stuff, even if its boringggggggg or Greek to many others....Similar, however, whatever field others are trained and experienced in would be likewise Greek to me.
The energy dissipated in the form of heat in any "ballast" indeed lessens the energy imparted into and stored in any downstream passive device such as a coil which then reduces the energy dissipated across the spark plug gap when it fires. The thing is (as Im sure youre aware) is the total picture and design and circuit of the ignition system which involves a coil (with its voltage and design parameters) PLUS a device to switch its current on and off which also has design limitations such as current and voltage. If the system is designed for an external ballast due to the current rating of the switching device thats all well n good, but take a design (12 volt coil or 6 volt coil + ballast) if you then further reduce the input energy by the addition of more external ballast, the energy dissipated in it reduces the remaining energy for the rest of the circuit. GUYS WAY SMARTER THEN US PROVED ALL THAT YEARSSSSSS AGO LOL
