My reading of their promotional info is that the capacitor (CD) in the plug accumulates the incoming flow of electricity until it releases it as a stronger but shorter duration firing of the plug. So, I suppose you can get their 150 watt spark for 30 billionths of a second rather than a typicall 50 watt spark for 100 billionths of a second. The question is, which is better, a hotter spark or a longer duration spark? I don't know the answer.
