Jed - the one big diff betw dbl life and rev/pol dizzys is the latter has TWO condensers - one supporting each set of points separately (the dbl life has one condenser for both sets of points). So, I think you can send a hotter spark (twice as much?) to the spark plugs with a rev/pol dizzy.

the double life name was from each set of points working half the time so they lasted twice as long

the Rev Pol name was for reverse polarity that was used in their special design coil. The rev pol system would give a hotter spark that they claim was like a magneto

Joe, I just had a chance to reread the posts. I think they were trying to tell me the same thing that you said, but I was a wee &quot;dizzy&quot; myself. It all makes sense. Didn't want to sound rude.
