Low tension coil

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Low_tension_coil an entity of type: Artifact100021939

A low tension coil is an electrical device used to create a spark across the points of an ignitor on early 1900s gasoline engines, generally flywheel engines, hit and miss engines, and other engines of that era. In modern electronic terms, a low tension coil is simply a large inductor, an electrical device that stores energy for brief periods. The term "low tension" was the terminology of the day used to differentiate it from the term "high tension", and generally meant "low voltage" (tension) as opposed to "high voltage" (tension). High tension coils produce high voltages, generally meant to produce a spark across a spark plug. rdf:langString
