I believe most of the early problems have been worked out. I had some early version of the E and Pmags. I have had 4 failures in the first 250 hours. Two of them were mechanical in nature when a magnet housing came loose inside. As a result they have modified the method the magnet is secured. The other two were another issue that also has been corrected. I have the latest and greatest versions now.
In each case I used the switch to isolate the offending mag and operate the remainder of the flight on the good mag. I did not feel my safety was in jeopardy in any way. If so I wouldn't be using them.
If you are going to have a mag problem at least these are really simple to work on. I can remove and replace in less than an hour.
The performance is excellent. Starts are instantaneous and everything runs very smooth. I have no imperical evidence but I believe the Pmags give a little power boost.
The fact of the Experimental world is that we, the end user, do most of the testing on new products. This allows us to get exceptional products at much lower costs than the Certified world. The Pmags are no exception.
I have confidence in the product. The company support is incredible. Brad and Tom are committed to putting out the best possible product. Yeah there were some issues, but I think they may have the bulk of them solved.
Many ignition systems have had problems. They just don't get the press that newest kid on the block is getting when something does go wrong.
Hope this helps. Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions.
