Quick Answer
The TW-G-DHQ automatic advance ignition module automatically advances the ignition timing of a 2-stroke gasoline engine as engine speed increases, replacing manual or fixed timing with speed-based timing control across 800–7,200 RPM.
- Input voltage: DC 6 V – 14.4 V
- Output voltage: ≥ 18 kV
- Quiescent power consumption: < 1 W; dynamic power consumption: < 8 W
- Operating temperature: −20 °C to 60 °C; storage: −20 °C to 80 °C
- Dimensions: 51.4 × 39.4 × 29.2 mm
- Typical ignition advance: from ≈0° at idle up to ≈30° crank angle at 7,200 RPM
It is designed for magneto-trigger 2-stroke engines found in brush cutters, chainsaws, hedge trimmers, RC model aircraft, jet skis / speedboats and motorcycles.
What Is an Automatic Advance Ignition Module?
An automatic advance ignition module is an electronic ignition timing controller that sits between the engine's magneto / trigger signal and the ignition coil. Instead of firing the spark plug at a fixed crank angle, the module reads engine speed and advances the spark timing automatically as RPM rises, delivering suitable ignition performance across the whole operating range.
The module is compact, potted for outdoor use and connects with two braided high-voltage leads (spark plug side) plus low-voltage input wires. The model number is TW-G-DHQ, with an input range of DC 6 V – 14.4 V — compatible with typical 12 V small-engine charging systems and magneto-powered circuits.
For operators, the result is practical, not theoretical:
- Reliable cold starts at idle speed.
- Smooth, stable idle instead of rough low-speed running.
- Strong high-RPM power when the engine is under load.
- No manual timing adjustment — the module does the tuning continuously while the engine runs.
How Does It Work?
Ignition timing on a 2-stroke engine must change with speed: at low RPM the spark should fire close to top dead centre, while at high RPM it must fire earlier (advanced) so combustion has time to develop before the piston reaches TDC. A fixed-timing system is a compromise; an auto-advance system is not.
Signal path
- Magneto / trigger — produces an RPM-timed trigger pulse from the crankshaft.
- Automatic advance module (TW-G-DHQ) — measures engine speed and computes the optimum advance angle.
- Ignition coil — steps the energy up to a ≥ 18 kV spark.
- Spark plug — fires at the advanced crank angle.
- Combustion — complete, well-timed burn at every speed.
Typical advance curve
On the standard module, ignition advance follows a typical curve from about 0° crank angle at 800 RPM (start / idle) climbing smoothly through the acceleration band (≈2,000–6,000 RPM) to about 30° at 7,200 RPM (high load). Because timing follows the curve continuously, the engine receives near-optimal spark timing across idling, pulling and full-throttle operation.

Why Switch to Automatic Advance Ignition?
- Set-and-forget timing — no manual spark adjustment when modifying exhaust, porting or carburetion.
- Speed-based tuning — one curve covers start, idle, acceleration and full load instead of one fixed compromise.
- High-voltage reliability — ≥ 18 kV output supports a strong, consistent spark under compression and load.
- Outdoor durability — sealed construction rated for −20 °C to 60 °C and 20% – 80% RH operation.
- Compact and universal mounting — only 51.4 × 39.4 × 29.2 mm, small enough for tight garden-tool and RC installations.
- OEM-friendly — available with custom wire lengths, connectors, labels and packaging for volume programs.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1.What does an automatic advance ignition module do?
It automatically advances ignition timing as engine speed increases, so a 2-stroke engine gets earlier spark at high RPM and normal timing at idle. The TW-G-DHQ covers 800 – 7,200 RPM with typical advance rising to about 30° crank angle at maximum speed.
2.What is the difference between fixed-timing and auto-advance ignition?
Fixed-timing ignition fires at one crank angle regardless of speed, which is a compromise. Auto-advance ignition shifts the spark earlier as RPM rises, matching the combustion window better at every speed — improving start, idle stability and high-RPM power.
3.What is the input voltage of the TW-G-DHQ?
DC 6 V – 14.4 V. It suits engines with 12 V charging systems as well as lower-voltage magneto-based circuits.
4.What output voltage does it produce?
The ignition coil stage delivers ≥ 18 kV at the spark plug, with quiescent power below 1 W and dynamic power below 8 W.
5.Which equipment can it be used on?
Magneto-trigger 2-stroke gasoline engines — including brush cutters, chainsaws, hedge trimmers, RC model aircraft / drones, jet skis and motorcycles. Always confirm trigger type and voltage range with your engine.
6.Will it work in cold or hot weather?
It is rated for operation at −20 °C to 60 °C and storage from −20 °C to 80 °C, with 20% – 80% RH operating humidity — sized for outdoor equipment use.
7.What are the module dimensions?
51.4 × 39.4 × 29.2 mm (L × W × H), with input wire about 150 mm and high-voltage leads about 400 mm long.
8.Can I buy it with my own wiring, label or packaging?
Yes. OEM / ODM options are available for wiring configurations, connectors, labels and packaging. Contact the manufacturer with your requirements for samples and volume pricing.
