Disclosed herein is a voltage regulated magneto powered capacitive discharge ignition system including a charge capacitor, a magneto including a charge coil, and a circuit including a rectifier having input terminals respectively connected to the charge coil and having output terminals respectively connected to the charge capacitor for insuring unidirectional current flow from the charge coil to the charge capacitor. The system also includes a voltage regulator including a silicon bilateral voltage triggered switch having first and second anodes respectively connected to opposite end terminals of the charge coil. In response to a voltage developed on the charge coil exceeding a predetermined value, the silicon bilateral voltage triggered switch is rendered conductive so that the charge coil is shunted by the silicon bilateral voltage triggered switch so that further charging of the charge capacitor is prevented.
