I bought, and still have my Power-Pulse controller. The batteries really worked very well as compared to the 4 AA Solar controller I had. My local hobby shop had a large stock of the batteries back in the early 90's which I bought up. And I believe if you can still get polaroid film the battery in the pack is the same.
With regards to the solar ignitor issue...Wasnt the solar ignitor supposed to be used with 6 volt systems and the other ignitors used with 12 volts like a car battery? That was always what I heard....
