The
Plasma III and Plasma II Capacitor Discharge
(CD) Ignition systems give you the best power
and efficiency increase of any ignition source
available today.
Proven
for over 20 years in racing and numerous world
records, it is the best choice to make your
engine run smoother with more power and 10 - 20%
better range (dependent on power setting).
Plasma
Ignition is the best way to reduce fuel cost,
saving almost 2 gallons per hour on the average
O-360 engine: true performance economy.
The
reliability and light weight of the Plasma CDI
cannot be matched by any mechanically driven
system.

| Since
1986, practically all
speed and efficiency competition has been dominated by aircraft with
Light Speed Engineering technology.
Some top finishers not only
use LSE Plasma CDI ignition systems but also our
advanced composite products.

Few Customer Comments:

"I
have been using the Light Speed
Engineering dual electronic ignition
system in my airshow airplane for
over a year. The system not
only works flawlessly, it has made a
noticeable improvement in power and
smoothness. Not only do I feel
confident with this system while
flying my airshow routine, but more
importantly during the long
cross-country flights to and from
each show. I am also getting
lower fuel flows at similar power
settings as compared to
magnetos. I am now installing
the same system on my support
airplane and would not hesitate to
recommend this upgrade to
anyone. Light Speed
Rocks!"

"The
Plasma III is a big improvement over
all the systems I've used (and I've used them all).
Thanks for offering such a fine
product."

I am flying the Glasair about 500+ hours
a year. Put 17 hours on it last
week on a trip to New York and back to
Texas. On the way back, 12.6 gph,
210kts indicated, at 12,500 MSL.
That is over 2+gallons less per hour
than running rich of peak with only 5 to
7 kts lower airspeed. With the
increase in fuel prices ($5.50 in New
York), that's $150.00 in fuel
savings. The plugs are not fouling
like they were before the new
ignitions. The hot starting
problems are gone. Just runs
great- a noticeable difference on climb
out. We are seeing 170 kts and 700
FPM rates up to 7,000 feet.
Thanks,
Tommy Stoneman |
