CDI help with Yiben

Ok, I'm pulling out the remainder of my hair here, I have a 2016 Yiben Scout (I believe, decals missing) bike only had 200 miles on it when I got it, I've been trying to find a spare CDI to carry, but 6 different CDIs later, not one of them will function, the bike runs fine on the stock one, it looks like an AC cdi, standard china stuff, but the picture of the CDI I found for the scout on UK ebay, looks like a DC and looks much larger, is this some strange proprietary cdi they created? I measured for DC voltage at the CDI plug with the key on, and nothing, do you suppose they could be running it on rectified DC from the stator? instead of the battery?
