All the Model A coils I've picked up over the years have had excellent spark.
I agree. After buying that tester a few years ago, I went on a buying spree of coils. This was also during a time when Ahooga was not making the repro coils. The coils I had were all testing kinda weak and at that time I wondered if it was the norm. Even the "NOS coil" was not strong so I was questioning whether the tester was any good. After buying a brand new coil along with several other used ones, I quickly found the tester worked properly. Again, the units I did have would spark, just not at the full potential.
