Pertronix ignitor II

[pszikszai]

I have seen this advertised.
One of the claimed advantages is that if one forgets and leave the key on it won't harm the unit.
Has anyone used this on a Studebaker?
Any opinions of those who tried them?
Thanks
Paul

If it's true and you are in the habit of leaving the key on 10 to 20 minutes with the engine off, it's a live saver. If you don't leave it on, you don't need it.

Edit: In light of the link shown below by Dick, I agree, it could be a lot more.

It actually does a lot more than that...

I don't have the Petronix Igniter II but the old I series. Had it on my 66 for about 15 years and no problems at all.
