Fuel economizer???

This looks great!! I plug a Christmas tree light into my cigarette lighter and I get 30% better gas mileage? Too cool! I have 3 power ports in my van, if I use 3 of these, does that mean I can reduce my fuel consumption by 3 x 30 = 90%??? Wow!!! Can I get them in 3 different colours?


 I was thinking the same thing, except I want a whole string of lights! biggrin

We had two vehicles come into work this week with check engine lights on. Both had intake temperature sensor fault. Both had a cheesy "Fuel saver" device wired into the IAT circuit. Since it was so cold the device was causing the IAT to give readings that were outside the normal parameters and therefore triggered the light. $98 later we had them removed and the hacked wiring fixed...

I believe: IAT = Intake Air Temperature circuit

This looks great!! I plug a Christmas tree light into my cigarette lighter and I get 30% better gas mileage? Too cool! I have 3 power ports in my van, if I use 3 of these, does that mean I can reduce my fuel consumption by 3 x 30 = 90%??? Wow!!! Can I get them in 3 different colours?

I am SHOCKED that big oil companies haven't bought this technology and stashed it in that big vault with the 100 mpg carburetor.

So you guys don't think the 30% improvement in fuel economy with this thing is legit?

 It's like those commercials on TV (My Clean PC.com ... a company that will clean-up your computer over the internetevileye) that have "customers" saying that their computers are now 150% faster since the clean-up.disbelief Not 149% or 151%.

We should all also know the following as truth and fact......... the fairy god mother, santa claus, a hard working civil servent, the tooth fairy, elves, leprecans, martians, an honest Libreal, tinker bell, an honest used car salesman, the weather man, pixies, the headless horse man, any kind of angel, 99.8% of politicians telling the truth............ Ya sure, a blue bulb will help me save money on fuel. I have a better way to save  money........... Do not buy useless junk and garbage. Cheers. George.

 Don't laugh.......he's sold 33 of them so far & 33 people in china CAN'T be WRONG.....

 Obviously they are on the cutting edge of NEW technology........How about a cordless earwax remover????

In the right circles,this one COULD be a BIG HIT...even in America!

I think by the description it's being sold by the same people that run this restaurant.

Some grammar and spelling issues in the item description too.

Did you notice, it's shipped prepaid from Hong Kong included in the $3.65 purchase price???

I think DUaLQUAD invented the blue light thing first. Did you see the lights in the upper corner windshield area of his 64 that he has for sale? Wonder if thats how he gets great gas mileage on that beautiful car.
