Ignition module alternatives

Does anyone know if there are options other than the Aerovee brand for the electronic ignition pick-up sensors? My rear module went bad, and I've ordered a replacement, but they're apparently on backorder with no info as to how long the backorder may be. The rear module that went bad isn't an Aerovee brand pick-up, so there must be some options other than Aerovee, but I'm having trouble finding where to get something to install while I wait for the Aerovee module. The non-Aerovee part is the one that has failed, but I wonder if there is another brand out there that might be just as reliable as the recommended one, if not more reliable.

Does anyone by chance have a spare secondary ignition pickup Tom can have and then you'll get his when he gets it? Maybe someone has a spare or has already got their engine kit but is a ways from assembly? Just a thought...

I'm sure Tom would appreciate the help getting his Waiex back in the air!

I just happen to have two spares..... one I removed for troubleshooting, turned out to be a coil (intermittent problem). Another brand new one, unopened since received from Sonex last year.

You are welcome to buy my new one for whatever Sonex sells them for and I'll ship it out free Priority mail. Let me know.
