Very wise to check your facts first... not something I usually do. [emoji16] This is where my original decision was made ..I was going to comment that they only appear to sell the dodgy Brazilian ones I decided to look on mine first before I make a fool of myself and it is Brazilian
Just went and got it in from the garage and it measures 2.97Ω when cold, it was a bit chilly in the garage, stuck it on the radiator for 20 minutes to warm it up and it only rose slightly to 3.04Ω. I would imagine that, that figure would rise to somewhere nearer to 3.2Ω in a nice hot engine bay and after producing a few hundred thousand sparks. That’s measured on a meter that I have recalibrated once a year so it’s really accurate.

It's quite informative. The proof of the pudding etc. Mine is no longer blue as the label came off and it got some black overspray but that doesn't affect its performance.[emoji16]But my ultimate customer review of the company I bought it from and the coil itself is that despite a short period of overheating when my voltage-control went faulty and doing me proud for, I guess, at least 20,000 miles, I haven't got the slightest misgivings that it it won't go on forever. [emoji16] PS. I've never checked the internal resistance or measured it's temperature.
