Sounds like something a salesman would say. (Fact) power train (electrical) in a veichles electrical mods wont give you more power. Alternator only spins as fast as the motor spins (LEDS or no LEDS) alternator just trickle charges whats there regardless of the draw on the batterys. You have to changes drivetrain to get better fuel mileage(motor, fuel delivery, air, etc. Only thing LEDs have as a pro on is they take less off a draw on your battery or batterys and produce a brighter light.

Ok rocketscientist.. look at a generator set.. you know.. portable one.. or heck.. even pto. ever notice they will tell you fuel usage at half load, or full load. ever notice the fuel usage goes up as load goes up. simple physics.. no free lunch.. you use more electricity.. you use more fuel. if you can reduce the incandescent load on a vehicle by replacing all but headlamps out with LED's then you an reduce overall fuel consumption... sheesh.... this is high school level stuff here people.... soundguy [Reply]  [No Email]

I want to see this. Everyone is going to laugh out you. Am i being punked right now like really!? Lmao you have no idea how a car electrical system works. Your idea is there if cars came with generators WITCH THEY USED TO. Generator in old cars would recharge loss voltage. Alternator only keep batterys up to par. You are so dumb just stop while your ahead leds will get me miliage.hahahahahahahahahaha Put down the pipe sir apparently its to strong for you. Me and the boys at the shop are going to laugh about this tomarrow. Leds will make your car in to a 9 sec track car. Did you come up with the muffler bearing joke too [Reply]  [No Email]

I never said that an electricity savings would make a car go faster or dyno higher. I said that when using less electricity, it will use less fuel. it's simple high school physics. there is no free lunch. the electrical load the alternator see's is directly related to it's mechanical load on the engine. same with a generator.. I'd wager I understand motive electrons better than you.... so you have an engineering degree right? I do.... soundguy [Reply]  [No Email]
