People believe all manner of idiotic things, and this stupid, scammy site, with its multiple obvious misspellings and complete lack of any verification, is very possibly convincing some poor, gullible grandmas out there to spend hard-earned money on what is essentially an LED that sticks out of a hole in your dashboard.
Man, they even used the thumbnail frame! Of course, all of this backstory and whatever is fiction. This bullshit explanation is basically the exact same thing that the old FuelShark said:.
The cap starts discharged, you turn on engine and the cap gets charged up with 12V and stays charged. It took electrical energy to charge it, and it just sits there at 12v — not going back into the system or anything.
You cut the car off and it discharges. In short, it does, to use a technical term, fuck-all. It lights up an LED. Look at those claims—more horsepower! Cleaner emissions! The small device is fitted with a capacitor that once plugged in to your 12v adapter is instantly connected to the car's main electrical system. The capacitor first charges and then discharges the stored electricity voltage when there is a heavy energy demand from the alternator.
Heavy energy demand reduced voltage is caused by using any electrical accessory in your car including lights, windshield wipers, air conditioning, stereo or any combination of them. Instead of the alternator and battery having to work overtime, Neosocket supplements the required voltage to reduce the load on the electrical system from any accessory that is being used. The reduced electrical demand frees up energy that can be better used to deliver a more constant and steady supply of electricity to the spark plugs and ignition system.
The result is a more efficient and complete combustion of the gasoline which will improve you gas mileage and produce cleaner emissions. The FTC should really crack down on companies that make unsubstantiated claims and sell products that have no proof associated with them. Our Recommendation You can safely avoid the Fuel Shark and save your money. This is one of those products that make other As Seen on TV products look bad.
I bought it for entertainment , I do this quite a bit. My car is a Ford Focus cc engine. I have in 11 years never seen more than 36 mpg even with mostly hwy travel. This car has always had an issue that no one can diagnose that being if it idles rough mileage drops for no reason. Lots of parts have been changed. Also engine for some reason idled quite smooth but not perfect but better. The only explanation is that the capacitors smooth out any voltage spikes similar to capacitor home devices to prevent meter from reading spikes that you are billed for.
I will be checking more BUT i must add the acceleration is much improved and I will also add that I absolutely hate the computer controlled throttle, damn piece of crap. Thank you fuel shark! Yeaah man I know what you mean. Once I put one of these fuel sharks in my car and wow what an improvement. I got pulled over because of all the gas spilling out of my gas tank. My only complaint is that the gas needle is stuck on past Full and that I have to stop every 45 miles to remove the excess gas from my tank.
Man you guys are the best and really make an awesome product. Now can you come up with a device that can help keep my gas tank from overfilling? Maybe somethign that I can plug into my ODB2 socket and give me a green light? I bought 12 of these and now I have to stop every 50 miles to remove gas from my tank to keep it from oveflowing. Ford Focus 1. Some nerve, commenting before you try. And then to try to sell me a bridge. What is the benefit of the bridge for me?
There is no bridge there. Talk about ignorant. Presently i am totally confused whether to get this stuff or not. Are those posting positive comments being paid by the company? Is it that some folks are simply jealous and try to damage the company product. If reputable car manufacturers have tested it and confirmed, are they also being paid?
If its a false advert. What do you think people? I base in Nigeria. As an electrical engineer, I can tell you that your car already has a system to regulate the voltage. Adding a small capacitor to the system is unlikely to improve voltage regulation much if at all perhaps just measurable , and the value of this capacitance is tiny compared to the current normally flowing in your electrical system.
Additionally, most automotive components are designed to work over a wide range of voltages, and those systems that need a tightly regulated voltage like sensors are always provide a regulated and filtered voltage by the engine control circuitry; otherwise, the sensitive electronics would not work correctly. I firmly believe that anyone who reports an increase in mileage after installing such a device, must have changed their driving habits enough to make a noticeable difference it is actually very easy to get better gas mileage by changing your driving habits.
Weather will also affect gas mileage. It also appears to me that most of the positive reviewers are being paid by the promoter of this scam product. Capacitors in parallel do decrease high frequency noise, but the electrical system in the car is already designed to deal with electrical noise which is normally present voltage regulation has to be included in the designed in order for the system to work as intended, and the car battery itself acts as a capacitor.
Anyway, if you are in doubt, find an automotive or electrical engineer, and ask them if a adding small capacitor to an automotive electrical system would make any difference, anyone worth their salt will be very skeptical. People who install stereo amplifiers to cars often add huge capacitors thousands of times bigger than the one in this device right at the amplifier, on heavy wires, in order to give the audio system overhead just look it up , and none of these millions of automotive audiophiles seem to notice a sudden increase in mileage.
The mileage claims for this device is complete bunk, and the marketer preys on the million U. To bad you all took art appreciation, home economics or 4 years of gym instead of actually getting a high school education. Looks like the decent into Idiocracy is at hand.
If only my morals underpinning would allow me to take advantage, I would get wealthy selling snake oil, or god, but alas, like many atheists I am just too damn ethical to take advantage of the ignorance of others. Oh yeah, if you want better mileage; assuming you have plugged your vacuum leaks, and other normal tuneup items like replace old spark plugs, distributor, plug wires, so the vehicle is running correctly you know like when the check engine light is off!
Plan ahead not to use your brakes as hard or as often and you will get better mileage. This I absolutely guarantee. So I know that few changes in your driving habits would get you part way there. All in all, if you have money to spare, give it a trial and post your experience. As a matter of fact,av came across series of fuel saver but this Fuel shark really work,I used it in my Kia rio model and it work very fine,I lived in Nigeria and a lot of people have been begging me to get it for them,av also came across one friend or two that are using it too.
Never understood why or how it works, but now after reading the review I can appreciate that with voltage regulation the car will perform better and thus save fuel. That technology has nothing to do with this type of scam product.
