Can a cigarette lighter fuel saver really save fuel?
2 Answers
Generally speaking, cigarette lighter fuel savers have some effect, but the effect is not very ideal, and it is basically imperceptible in terms of fuel savings. There are many types of fuel savers, and most do not meet the requirements, so it is important to understand clearly before purchasing and not be deceived by product descriptions. More relevant information is as follows: Automobile fuel saver: As the name suggests, it is a device applied to automobiles that uses certain methods or means to save vehicle fuel or reduce fuel consumption. Principle: The principle of an automobile fuel saver is to use the vehicle's own generator power supply, automatically generate the current required by the water-powered fuel saver host through a power controller, electrolyze the water in the water-powered fuel saver host into hydrogen and oxygen, and then deliver the mixed hydrogen and oxygen gas to the engine's cylinders through a safe isolation water supply device and pipelines to burn along with other fuels, thereby achieving the purpose of saving fuel.
As a seasoned driver with over 20 years of experience, I've tried those cigarette lighter fuel savers. You plug them into the cigarette lighter socket, and the ads claim they can save 10% on fuel, but in reality, the fuel gauge didn't budge at all, and it was just a waste of money. In principle, it's just a small electronic gadget that claims to optimize engine control, but the car's brain, the ECU, is already very sophisticated and doesn't need external junk to function. What really affects fuel consumption are driving habits: like maintaining tire pressure around 2.5 bar, avoiding heavy acceleration, and changing the oil on time. If these fuel savers actually worked, the world would have changed long ago. I suggest new drivers not waste their cash and instead go for a comprehensive service at the dealership—it's more worthwhile. Remember, fuel saving comes from actions, not from fake little gadgets.
