  • Pulsstar spark plugs

    There are a lot of pretty cool graphics on this site.
    I saw their add in popular mechanics.
    Wonder if the 25.00 price tag is worth it? guess it would depend on longevity.

    might be just snake oil but improvements in technology are always interesting.

    Do you want it done right or do you want me to do it?

    Read thru their site.
    Sounds impressive but the price tag puts em out a reach.
    I do not like the wording used for the in house vehicel testing.
    Sounds as tho they may have cherry picked some of the results.

    "If" can change something 180 degrees

    Maybe someone here will give em a shot and let us know if there worth it.

      Very impressive site, BUT

      HONEY - I SHRUNK THE COILS!

      Our coils are 3 ohms, on 12VDC, draw is 4 amps or 48 watts, so their 50 watt claim is close. Wonder how they can get a MILLION watts out of the same current draw? Increase the voltage 20,000 times? Our iggy coils do that same job, but takes a coil of wire as big as your fist to accomplish. Wonder how they shrunk all that into the size of a spark plug insualtor? Must be magic.

        Interesting. I am certainly no electrical guy but it appears to be some sort of onboard capacitor that is collecting and storing the energy until the spark is needed. Seems like a good idea but is it practical or really needed? I would be very skeptical of their amp claims.

        Once you un-can a can of worms, the only way to re-can them is with a bigger can.

          Sounds like cold fusion to me...a load of hooey. it says it stores unused electricity, but the only time there's energy in that circuit, is when the plugs are firing (anyone feel free to correct me if I am mistaken), so where does the "wasted" energy come from? I suspect it's bunk, but what do I know, I'm just a shade tree mechanic that fumbles about till I figure it out.
