Electronic Points in my Knucklehead?

[billpedalino]

For years I've been looking at the 'QuicStart 2000' ad from 'Beyond 2000' in the club's magazine for years now and have often considered using one in my '47 and/or '53. I'm told that the newer paper condensers (which I have) don't hold up as well as the old oil-filled ones which supposedly break down. However, I find little to no pitting on my points when I check the gap every year which means that there is minimal arcing. So, I haven't replaced my new style condenser for many years - it seems to work just fine. But not having to check the points or lube the point cam would be nice, and I would think that even a clean, well-aligned point set offers some resistance or loss compared to an electronic disconnect.
Has anyone used this product and if so, how does it work?
Thanks,
Bill Pedalino

I have it in my 1946 WL for approximately 10 years, zero issues. But you need to talk to Ed and get a coil that is Ohm matched to his unit or you will be chasing issues. Ed has the information and a member here sells the coil that works with the 2000. Once I moved over to that coil I have never thought about it again.

Howdy sir,

A Quick start 2000, 2 brush conversion and an 6V electronic regulator changed everything about riding my 41Fl 13 years ago. I’d never go back to points and cutouts, u can view that conversion at my gallery below. All of that set the stage for complete LED conversion using the latest generation, vastly superior to the first.

I have a ULH that required a quick cleaning of the points every few rides or it would not start. Never figured why because it didn’t show any signs of oil but back to topic; I put a quick start in it with the stock coil and it always starts easy now.

I did a thread on quality condensers a while back:

Thank you all for your valuable feedback. I'll probably try it.
