Well, yeah ... except that with a Pertronix, if the coil originally needed
an external ballast, it still does. If you just remove the ballast, then
the coil & Pertronix unit will overheat. And, since this is a late TR6, the
ballast is part of the wiring harness, which is kind of needed for other
things.
But getting a full 12v to the Pertronix is exactly why John is looking for a
source of switched 12v.
