"The Compufire electronic ignition on my 2180 VW from Great Plains uses 0.6 to 7.9 amps, idle to wide open throttle, as displayed on my instrument panel ammeter. The more sparks it makes, the more juice it takes."
I may be mis-remembering, but Steve Bennett once told me it was just the opposite. Idling/low RPM drew more juice from the battery than when turning at higher RPM's.
