detonation sensor

Dave,
	I messed up, I only bought one! A vendor at the Fall Englishtown, NJ auto
fleamarket had at least 20 of them. I really wasn't sure about it. I had never
seen one before, so I just bought one to play with. I should have bought more.
It really looks like it was a volumn producton item. It is mounted in a cast
aluminum heat sink that Has Carter Knock Eliminator cast into the Face in milled
aluminum on a black background. Looks like a high dollar item.
