  • I used a common glass reed switch. As I was using electronic ignition, the current through it was very small, less than 10mA.

    As I didn't run this setup for much time, I can't tell you life expectancy of the reed switch ,but at such low currents, should be within several hundred hours.

    The engine ran flawlessly on this setup.

    Thank you for your question, Merry X-mas ;)
