Title: Power pulse box Post by: greenmonster on October 31, 2010, 03:41:15 PM From AG Hammer:
(http://www.ca-cycleworks.com/shop/catalog/ducati/img/ag_902173.jpg) Quote It is a capacitor designed to smooth the bike’s +12V system while the bike is running. The theory is that it helps feed the ignition coils by supplying more juice when the coils need them. What does it actually do? Anyone tried them? Title: Re: Power pulse box Post by: junior varsity on October 31, 2010, 04:06:55 PM i've got one.
its a capacitor to even out the electrical system. i think it would be very helpful on a small-alternator model, pre-98 monsters, etc. Title: Re: Power pulse box Post by: junior varsity on October 31, 2010, 04:08:30 PM Its also fairly small, the pictures make it look large. Its really about the size of two fuse blocks back-to-back. I'd estimate its a 1" x 2" x 3".
Title: Re: Power pulse box Post by: junior varsity on October 31, 2010, 04:09:10 PM oh, and i got mine from CA-Cycleworks, Chris is great to deal with so I've never bothered looking for another supplier of AG Hammer parts.

Title: Re: Power pulse box Post by: junior varsity on October 31, 2010, 04:44:24 PM Yes, similar to this product by Procom:

Not much of a difference, seems a little smoother in spark delivery I suppose.

Who doesn`t want over 14V at idle & never hotter than +43C while running? |
