Yeah I got about 300 on mine and there were some early problems but I think they
have those licked now.

Hi Ed
        I'm just a new one.  I've only got 20 hours on the bird since new and I
have upgraded the ignition units at every opportunity.  I was going to use the
Light speed ign. units but went with the E-Magair system.
Time will tell but I'm very happy with the service and so far zero problems.  Since
they are going for certification for regular aircraft,
they are not going to be a fly by night supplier.   There are some units
out there with a lot more time than mine naturally.  I am not sure who has the
greatest time but I would not be surprised if it were over 500 hours.
