Just stumbled across this, Made me laugh thought i would share.

It plugs into your cigarette lighter and instanlty save you 20% of you fuel. And saves the earth ahah,

Do people actually buy this shit?

anyone else think it works by lighting a light whenever it gets a certain amount of supply voltage due to increased revs, or by the same technologly as iphones and sensing how hard you accerate, therefore making you more aware of your driving style?

thats the only logical way i think it could help with economy.

nope, totally wrong. i found some stuff on the net about them. have a read/laugh for yourself

NEOSOCKET REVIEW

After scouring the internet for fuel saving products and researching them, I finally found the product that lived up to all I was looking for. All I needed to do was simply plug-in the Neosocket into my car's 12 volt lighter/accessory adapter and I immediately began to save money on gas and improved my fuel economy.

Since very few people have the financial resources to convert their cars to natural gas or fuel cell technology, Neosocket has developed a simple and inexpensive way to improve the cars we already drive. The cost of hybrid cars is not at a level we can all benefit from yet, so clever devices like this will definitely make an impact for the millions of cars already on the road today.

You won't need to go under you hood to install anything or disassemble your interior which is always a plus. It has also been proven safe for use in any car that uses a 12 volt system and will not damage your onboard computer.

HOW DOES NEOSOCKET WORK ?

The Neosocket is a new application of an old technology. Basically, it acts like a small battery that helps your car's electrical system perform better. 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. (capacitors are also commonly used to power the electronic flash in cameras)

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. You will also get better horse power, acceleration, and a smoother running engine despite daily driving conditions.

The fact is that fuel mileage will fluctuate in any car due to driving habits, lack of maintenance, traffic conditions and many other factors. All these factors will rob the fuel efficiency your car was meant to achieve. The main purpose of Neosocket is to help your engine consistently maintain its designed fuel efficiency despite of all these unpredictable situations.

basically they say it's a capacitor that supplies extra charge to the electrical system, taking strain off the alternator. unless you have a dynamo off a pushbike in the place of your alternator, and a few AA batteries in the place of your car battery, i doubt you will see any difference in fuel economy.

You will also get better horse power, acceleration

seems legit :ninja: , also all p plater should get this if that claim is true.

so whos stepping up and testing this for sau?

surely there has to be some law against shit like this???

i honestly cant believe that 7 people were dumb enough to buy this magical fuel saving dildo

There is a law against it. A law that has very severe consequences...

I believe it is called natural selection.

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
