Ignition VAPE for Vespa Smallframe and Motovespa - 12 V DC / 110 W, contactless, bright light, reliable start, aluminum fan wheel

12 V up to ~110 W (at ~6,000 rpm) Bright light even when idling (~80 W @ ~2,000 rpm) Contactless and maintenance-free Ignition setting without strobe DC on-board power supply with battery supply Pole wheel incl. fan ~1,400 g CNC aluminum fan wheel, natural/silver High cooling capacity Made in Europe

Highlights

The VAPE 12-volt system modernizes classic smallframe ignitions: contactless, bright light even at low revs and spontaneous engine start. In the DC version, the battery supplies the vehicle electrical system with stable DC voltage - power even without the engine running. This version comes with a CNC-milled aluminum fan wheel in natural/silver

quality

Manufactured in Europe. Laser-marked components for clear identification. One-piece rotor reduces imbalance and bearing load. The precisely balanced aluminum fan wheel delivers high cooling performance with stable flywheel mass and matches the look of classic silver setups.

DC on-board power supply

The alternator output is fed into the battery via a DC rectifier/regulator, from where all consumers are supplied. Ideal for digital consumers such as SIP speedometer, USB charger, fuel pump or lambda heater. Note: A suitable battery is required for DC operation.

Conversion from contact ignition

The VAPE completely replaces the contact ignition. Strong permanent magnets ensure a reliable ignition spark and bright light even when idling. Contact and capacitor maintenance are no longer necessary, starting behavior and suitability for everyday use are significantly improved.

Ignition timing

With CDI for static ignition timing as standard - suitable for many 2-stroke street setups. Markings on the pole wheel and base plate enable adjustment without a strobe. A dynamic CDI can be used as an option.

Installation and instructions

Simple installation at original points. Please mount stress-free, carefully establish ground points, retighten screws after 50-100 km. The original pole wheel puller is compatible. An adapted wiring harness is highly recommended for older vehicles.

Pole wheel and fan wheel

A groove system prevents incorrect installation. The flywheel mass is defined by the fan wheel. The CNC aluminium fan wheel in natural/silver has optimized blade geometry for high cooling performance and a classic silver look.

It supplies direct current from the battery - stable even when stationary. It also has an aluminum fan wheel in natural/silver (not black) for a classic look.
When converting from contact to VAPE (centrally regulated), an adapted wiring harness is highly recommended. Old, decentralized self-regulating designs are not compatible and often have increased contact resistances.
Set the ignition pulse to 1 on the SIP speedometer. Either use KOSO signal filters or connect the brown tacho cable to the white cable of the SIP/VAPE CDI.

Proper ground connections are absolutely essential for long-term trouble-free operation.
