The DS2-1 is the right kit. www.z1enterprises.com/ItemDetails.aspx?item=DYDS2-1

Did you use the stock coils or the Dyna Green coils? I think the Dyna S likes coils with 3-5 ohms resistance. Some OEM coils are lower than this range though.

Also, are you using a switched power source? If you tap the unit into the battery it will be energized 24/7 which may lead to short life.

How good is your battery ?

The Dyna S does not like low voltage and if you're running the battery down and having to recharge it
a lot that WILL burn up the Dyna S.
A buddy of mine went through three before finally replacing his junk battery and has not had an issue
in over two years.

Low voltage? That doesn't makes sense.
Maybe the bike was WAY overvoltage charging a bad battery?

Batteries like valve adjustments are put off until they can't be ignored.
