I want to build a electronic ignition box for a engine i am tinkering with.

I need the unit to run on 12 volts and power a auto coil. I want to use a hall sensor for the switching.

TIM-6 - For use with 6 volt batteries (or 4.8 to 7 volts) on any engine type. The kit contains: (1) TIP42C Transistor, (1) 2N2907A Transistor, (4) Resistors, (1) LED Timing Light, (1) Hall Effect Magnetic Sensor, (1) Rare Earth Magnet, (1) Drilled Printed Circuit Board, Circuit Diagrams and Construction Notes. The circuit board is 1" wide by 1.35" long. Just to the left of the circuit board is the Hall Effect sensor and the dot just above it is the rare earth magnet which is just 2mm in diameter and 1mm thick. The LED timing light was added to the kit after the photo.

Now i dont know anything about these components. Will this work on 12 volts? What kind of resisters are needed and how would you wire this?
