Our initial products, our patented EasyCaps, are a simple replacement solution for that old problem, the deeply-buried condenser (capacitor) found in all rotating coil magnetos. Once fitted, the EasyCap becomes a routine service item.

Initial installation of an EasyCap does require the old condenser to be disconnected. We provide detailed instructions in our condensectomy pages on how to do that. We can hire out the special tools required and provide drawings for those of you who wish to make the tools yourselves. Alternatively, you can use our armature service or magneto service, and we will do the job for you.

Although many owners can perform most of the tasks required to keep their magnetos performing well, remagnetising a tired magnet does require specialised equipment. We have therefore introduced an inexpensive remagnetisation service with a quick turnaround time to help you get your magneto back to tip-top condition.
