Must have been a slow day. I set up the test rig to run the "Ultimate" coil (17-6903), an Autolite #63 spark plug and an Iridium spark plug in the test rig, powered by a 6 volt lantern battery. This to simulate a hard start condition with a low battery.

The plug in the foreground is the Iridium, the plug in the background is an Autolite #63. I dimmed the lights so you can see the spark.
This is to demonstrate that one of the reasons you would buy the "Ultimate" coil is not just because it produces 82,000 Volts, but that it also produces a usable spark with just 6 volts, which means that it will also start easier under adverse conditions.
The occasional "miss" in the video is just the camera. The spark never actually missed.
Keep in mind that the stock TCI and other aftermarket electronic ignitions will not even work with less than 9 volts on the battery.
