John, I don't know the current draw, but I
would strongly suggest that you replace fuses in critical circuits like ignition
with quality circuit breakers. Fuses are OK and have their place and I
used them in my aircraft but, in my opinion they do NOT belong in a
critical circuit. I have never reset a fuse, but I have reset circuit
breakers that popped due to a temporary overload and got the system back in
operation. FWIW

Subject: [FlyRotary] LS1 Coils - amp
draw?
Good
evening all,
I
think I found out why my engine ran under powered on the last flight. The fuse
supplying the leading coils was blown. It was a 15 amp fuse, which I would
have thought would be more than adequate. Of course, the fuse is supplying two
of the coils, not one. Perhaps that's where I went wrong with the
calculation.
Can
anyone recall what the max draw is per coil?
