Installed capacitor to delete the battery

Permanent magnet rotor plus magneto ignition equals:  who needs a battery?

I mounted the capacitor using the rubber boot from the turn signal flasher.  I don't plan to have turn signals, but left the flasher installed with cable ties for now.

I checked the voltage while running, and was pleased that it was around 7 - 7.3 volts.  On a 6 volt charging system, I think that will be fine.
