When the letter series was introduced, all tractors came with magnetos. The IH battery ignition units started being installed on the tractors in 1950, with maybe a few models in '49. I don't know if it was standard on any models, but on at least some it was an option. It was an option in the sense that ANY electrical equipment (starter, lights) was an option. However, the typical tractor was ordered with an electrical package that included starter, lights and battery ignition. The practical result was that virtually all domestic tractors came with battery ignition as soon as it was available. Export tractors were more likely to have a magneto and no other electrical equipment.
