    Don't know about any dyno testing....
    But testing anything is a good idea!

    I asked years ago about the 'affiliate link' to a 'Water Injection' system and some anodized aluminum valve that makes your prius so much 'better' than with the stock valve.......
    Testing this snake oil crap should be easy.

    And what do they all make from posting all their 'affiliate links'? A buck and a half? Is it a taxable income? (n)

    If someone is posting links to products, that they are making a few cents, even if the products are snake oil, ...........

    Now, a modern Li-ion cells to rebuild the stock battery pack.... That should be testable.
    Fortunately, my 13 year old Ni-Mh pack is hanging in there, so I just get to watch and learn....(y)

    Good Lorde.... A Fart Can.:whistle:

    I didn't read anything. I'm sure he's claiming many great things! That can't be proven.

    I hate the noises my prius makes now. I wouldn't want it louder....

    my thought is... why is everyone putting the same capacity batteries in their car when they replace them?

    So far, I've doubled the EV range on my 2013 Plug-in to replicate the 2017 Prime EV range... next, I'm going
    to hit my goal of 50kWh using the same space as my OEM cells.

    The new super capacitors look really promising, I just need to figure out the DC fast charging conversion without needing to add or remove electrical components.

    I remember a thread where someone cut their cat out (or had it cut out/stolen), and gained a fair bit of MPG with a test-pipe - (not that I am recommending that) However I also recall there being a long-winded conversation about back-pressure being engineered into the system for either emissions reasons, efficiency, or both.

    Hi everyone. Does anybody know where I can buy a spare Nexcell? One cell in my pack went bad.

    well.. considering its a DIY project if out of warranty and you dont upgrade to sodium... he tells me they arent for usage in a road vehicle and I am taking chances but so far swapping out the board from one blade to another has worked for me personally.
