You're not "stealing" voltage from your ignition system, unless your alternator and battery are totally stuffed that is. The car's electrical system should never drop below 12v when the engine is running, and 12v is plenty for the ignition system.

Besides, if the ignition system was breaking down you'd get an audible miss, the engine wouldn't just slow down (as was described).
