Voltage Stablisers

[rcalsop]

In a recent conversation with a Thai petrol head he went to great pains to show me his Voltage stabliser saying what great benefits it had , I have also seen on the car club web sites in Thailand , Malaysia , Singapore similar devices being recommended ,and some DIY fitting instructions .

This one is new to me does any body know about them , has any one got one and why ? or is it another gimic toy ? ..

I would presume that it is to stop voltage fluctuations effecting their sound system much like the capacitors that they have.

Can't see any other benefit for one.

I remember years ago that you could get spark plug wires with built in rf filters to keep the electrical noise out. With current cars & technologies I suspect they are well stabalized already.

You already have one voltage stabiliser built into the dashboard to make sure the gauges give an accurate reading .

So what were the advantages your guy told you about ?
