Maybe I'm missing your point but at least '14 CDI is built to use either AC directly from coils (no e-start version) or regulated DC (e-start version). The CDI is the same for e-start and non e-start. My e-start has the CDI coil output, but it's not connected, even though I have completely removed battery and starter.
