Just noticed that on the same page they sell a "Fuel Optimizer" magnet thingy.

Upon further research I found one on Amazon, and the reviews were not good. People said it was a piece of junk. The idea is good, but the one on Amazon was too small, and poorly built. The fan did not move air. I would say wiring a solar panel to your vehicle's blower fan might be a mod that could be worthwhile if...

I bought one of these gizmos at WALMART two years ago. It did not work right out of the box. What a POS.
