Hi David, I put in the Lasar ignition in my 320 after looking at the Light Speed and some other electronic ignition systems. The Light Speed is a very good system and there are a lot of 'em flying around forward of very satisfied pilots. What sold me on the Lasar, however, was the "double redundant" feature. They work as electronic ignition systems with all of the advantages thereof but if the electronics should fail, or if you loose electricity for any reason they "revert" to normal mechanical mags. By my way of thinking this gives you 4 ignition systems. Maybe its overkill but it gives me that warm fuzzy feeling that helps to fill that large empty space in my wallet.
