The inductive pickup as in the 760 system does not require you to put 12 volts down to it unlike the hall effect senor. I have not pulled them apart and gone through the circuit on the bench and I have no need to. I know anytime you're sending 12 volts around a jet-ski you are asking for green wires.
If you read back you will see i never called the hall effect out dated other than in an two stroke ignition system. My challenge to you would be to find a modern and when i say modern i mean anything with in the last 20 years two stroke ignition system that uses an hall effect sensor.
All the early two stroke kv igntions and pjs etc used a hall effect sensor.
I know of another company that uses hall effect senors in their ignition that are having issues with them playing up as well
Do you think some how the oem manufacturers got it wrong ?

I have to ask. Correct me if I’m wrong but when you refer to 760 pickup and claim it’s “modern”, does a Hall effect sensor not work exactly the same: using a voltage wavelength being interrupted by a passing magnet? Now also please if I’m wrong correct me. But I have personally never opened a 760 pulse coil before so I’m going off pure speculation. Isn’t it just a series of fine wire windings around a magnet? Now I have personally spent hundreds of dollars on Hall effect sensors, inspecting, testing, tossing in the garbage, etc. I hade the pleasure of dissecting one of these outdated dinosaur items at one point and was quite surprised. No magnet, no windings, no Yamaha part number, no magical ferry dust. I infact found a very small circuit board. Interesting I know. Now what intrigued me was these usually ranged in price from $10-$20 each. Cheap right? I know but that’s not the kicker. How about 20,000+ available in a warehouse all the time. Cool. Wait even better. Made by Honeywell, butter. Now wax you seem like a very smart man and I applaud you for what you have done with a zeeltronic brain. But if you infact think that Hall effect sensors are outdated? That’s not what you should be worried about. Last time I check outdated was a winding around a magnet potted in some plastic.

Well i guess if you spoken to Borut about this, or had an knowledge about ignitions like @waxhead has, you would know the answer. The only knowledge i have, is reading a bit, @waxhead and from talking to Borut.
Hall effect sensor is less precise than inductive sensor, so the become less accurate at high RPM. But for the jetski application we dont need that high RPM - so hall effect sensor can be used.

So i gotta back @waxhead, he didn't say hall effect sensor was outdated - just asked to find a modern two stroke engine from past 20 years that used hall effect sensor instead of magnetic or inductive pickup - can you do that? :)
 
Ok well im at home now and its much easier to type on my lap top.

To answer you're analogy
No one said to eric malone that he had no idea about hulls and he should stick to electric bikes and then meanwhile went and used the very same hull after eric told him where to buy them.
Sinisterjosh i don't know who you are and have no beef with you, x2stroker well this is the guy who I was explaining to him that he should not use the msd 4217 as he was about to and go to the zeeltronic, he was telling me to stick to electric bikes etc and basically saying i had no idea. I don't care what he thinks its water of a ducks back. When he then goes and uses the ignition i was suggesting to him and saying how great he is and what an awesome designer etc then its kinda erks me.
Then he goes on to say " Wax had an idea using those units, I made them work so you don't have to go through trial and error."

I didn't design the ignition of course not zeeltronic did and its an awesome thing which is why I recommended it in the first place and tried to steer him away from the msd to my own peril
This is me using the ignition on a triple ski.

As far as to x2stroker saying i know nothing about ignitions i offer up to you my old website where i actually marketed ignitions myself
https://web.archive.org/web/20080828230158/http://www.waxracing.com/
Unfortunately like the factory fire, advent, vilder, epic, and other brands it was hard to make them reliable on the superjet and i bought them all back at a huge cost to myself.
So if you're thinking i have no idea about ignitions then consider that corrected

if you look here on pwctoday you can see me running a 760 front cover on a 8mm lamey with a supercharger on it. The supercharger was just a joke and I was playing around However I was running a programmable sxr ignition in and modified it to work with 760 front cover.

Its not hard to find on the web where i have talked about it at length
http://www.x-h2o.com/index.php?threads/epic-curve-thread.90229/page-2

please dont tell me I came up with 'an idea" like i never did anything about my idea.
I just never marketed and here it is explained why i never did below.

Why i didn't market a total loss system based on the zeeltronic that's easy, Why would I
The system is already out there using a modern style pickup in the 760 front cover. The flywheel with out the magnets and machined down is a light as an alloy and it doesn't break the hub on the taper like a lot of alloy flywheels do and they can be picked up very cheap on eBay. However i think that is about to change
I also could not see the sense in changing to an older style pickup when you already have a modern pickup in the 760

Please find me a modern two stroke engine where they use a hall effect sensor to trigger the ignition and not a lump on the flywheel, Anything with in the last 20 years will be fine. They just don't do it. If of course there was not already a system out there that didnt use the modern pickup i can see why you may make one but i still for the life of me cant see why you would not convert to a modern pickup at the same time.

I know the 760 is a single channel ignition and only uses one coil to fire both plugs. It makes no difference the spark energy of a zeeltronic is that massive you don't need multiple coils.

Im sorry that it came to this but I will not stand by if i am called out and not answer to it.
I really like Jared. But sometimes proving points just gives up too much info. When we do a release I’ll try and cover every piece of the kit that makes it better. Even down to the flywheel not being 6061, cause we all know they crack or oblong the key way.

Yes please do. i have no issue with you, its x2stroker that dragged me into this one, this is why i wrote what i did previously.

im staying out of this as much as I can. But I just need to correct you on one thing. It was not an idea I had. It was in fact something I had already done. I had been down the route of running the msd 4217 as you were running and knew it would not work correctly and that's when I went to the zeeltronic and was running them and for more than a few hours. How about a little credit where it's due buddy

Im pretty much done in here with this, i have no desire to argue about it anymore unless x2stroker starts me again.

“I also could not see the sense in changing to an older style pickup when you already have a modern pickup in the 760”

What’s this you said?

Funny you say last 20 years. I just received Husqvarna’s newest series of chainsaws in my shop a few days ago, I’ll have to double check but according to them they are now using a Hall effect style pickup for the microprocessor controlling the fuel solenoid. Now this may be new to you since your stuck on 760 but here in the states, we have mostly 4 strokes. Most 2 stroke anything has been phased out, so we both know that what you are asking me to provide is irrelevant as most manufactures still use stators in production units.

See unlike the oem manufactured pickups, Hall effects are used in numerous industries for proximity sensing. So your oem pickups are limited to when Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki, etc wants to invest in improving or changing the design. Now if it doesn’t need to change that’s understandable and great! But in our case weight and size was a factor also. Which most likely won’t change in an oem pickup

The only thing I don't like about the hall sensor is the 20g wires. I ended up splicing the wires at the stator plate to 18g and mounting the 20g to the stator plate. The only issue ive had was my bendix blew from a flop and it cut my hall sensor. Seems to be a solid kit overall and that was on me, ha ha.

Super cool to hear things are moving forward. Josh helped me get me and a few others get a flywheel when this first came out.

I would highly recommend Josh and buy with confidence. I also appreciate all the good tips that Waxhead gives out too man. I know these guys are all just trying to help out the sport at a small cost and good faith.

That's just my two cents.

We have found a solution to the small sensor wire. When or if you ever have to replace sensors again shoot me a pm, I have all previous styles of backing plates on hand so I can imitate our updated pigtail with new sensors to the first style “pedestal” backing plate

Nice Dude, I also had an issue with start stop too, but once I switched thst to deutsch connectors it went away. I am using the thrust shifty kit. So it was probably on me too.

Stoked to see you guys moving to to next level. Cool to watch you ride too Man! Old guy just having fun.
 
Well before I start a new thread, I’ll start here as there is a lot of info of where the original jstl kit was started. As stated above I have taken over jstl. Against @x2stroker wishes I will be changing the name to CPI, competition programmable ignitions. The cdi concept from the original jstl was used as a great starting platform to improve on. Thus, the reason for the name change. Different, so it needs a new name. With out getting too specific into the technical aspects of what was changed, some of the original electrical parameters are different. All for the better. Now the stuff that I will talk about, as of now, that has changed to make this kit one of the best ever produced. From a glance, all kits will come pre wired and pre mapped to take way some of the confusion associated with total loss. If you can line up marks on a oem stator plate, you can install this kit. Mass amounts of real world testing was done over the last 2 years, on various engine manufacturers motors to produce these pre programmed ignition curves. Units will come programmed w/ pump gas and race gas curves. The curve switch will not come installed so that a user error can be avoided. With the switch not connected the unit will always resort to map 1, which is pump. These curves are both on the safe side and will work for 98% of riders. This includes all motor sizes. It helps eliminate detonation issues w/ first time users. Pre ignition issues we cannot help with! Static is already verified for the user. Line it up and turn the switch on. You will notice the flywheel does not have timing marks, only to help cut down on overthinkers and ease of install. We did all the hard work for u. 1% are capable of creating their own curve and really start fine tuning their setup to produce the most power. In this case, cable, software and micro degree wheel will be provided. The last 1% of actual tuners will be select dealers that will be given the support and tools needed to build custom curves for specific applications and get competitors every last bit of hp they deserve and need. The programmability of this unit is unmatched and can be so finely tuned no other total loss can compete. Backing plate, pickups, and magnet placement were all changed not only for more accurate timing but also for proprietary ignition performance reasons. No more buying an unassailabled kit, having to send a flywheel off to have lightened or asking for advice of where to set your dip switches. Flywheels are “not” soft 60/61 and come with a thicker ring gear for improved longevity. The key way is machined to precision tolerance to help with strength and reliability that we have lacked in the past with lightweight wheels. Up from there, we go into actual deutsch and oem run/stop connectors. Literally plug and play! Every part used down to even the solenoid, was the best money can buy. Quality fuse holder and waterproof rotary on/off switch included. Bad a$$ coils and wires not only for best performance but also to prevent radio frequencies that can cause misfires. It’s the only way to make a total loss system the most reliable. Yes we use a Hall effect sensor for pick up. Rest assured these sensors that can be prone to failure, due to mechanical issues like bendix coming apart, are cheap to replace. 13$ to be exact. Compare that to magnetic pickups and you will understand what sets us apart. Our concerns were the same as everyone’s! That lead us down this lengthy r&d path! I now have the confidence in this kit to produce it for the public and offer a warranty on the cdi. Obviously modifications or willful errors to the kit will void warranty. Example, you pop the fuse to the brain because your choice of wire routing chafed the wires, and your buddy gives you a 50 amp fuse. The cdi does have protection unlike current competitors units but no electrical part is foolproof. Good news even if the worst case happens the cdi is repairable. We are currently working on packaging, new logo, wiring schematic, disclaimer, instructions and dealer relationships. There will be few that are authorized and capable. This will help us give actual “real” customer support should you need any. Here is another picture although the full release photos will show all parts included and packaging. MSRP will be 1799.95 usd. We understand some may be skeptical and for that reason we will offer first 5 public kits at 1619.95. Upon comparison of what you get, will you understand the value offered with this kit. In the words of the “iceman”, to be the best u have to beat the best! And we did!EDF06A4F-EA1D-445F-816E-A5A5B1D199E0.jpeg1E9F50BC-D874-4824-A42E-C6520774317C.jpegEDF06A4F-EA1D-445F-816E-A5A5B1D199E0.jpeg1E9F50BC-D874-4824-A42E-C6520774317C.jpeg
