That stuff is really not expensive e.g. a TCST2103. Salvaging them from old printers can be frustrating, LEDs burn (
) with wrong current, pinout is sometimes not clear. Extracting them from an old device is extra work.
The automotive people seem to have settled on the Hall sensors.

I doubt that making the light barrier mechanically work is less hassle than fitting a hall sensor
Just arrived. I hope they work as good as they look. Even come with a 1/4 32 size plug cap. Hopefully on test this week.
Things like that happen, most times they will just send what you asked for with no argument and you'll have a free sparkplug as well.
That's annoying but it happens on Ebay, too. I was looking at some cheap crucibles on Ali, at $6 .... and $35 freight(Canadian prices). No, I wasn't expecting that kind of price and I do little casting so wasn't expecting the best quality either.
Did you select the item on the order page. There is a choice of items. I wouldn't recommend the small unit I mentioned as it has a very weak spark.
Thanks. I thought that I had tried all combinations but this seems to work.
