The Neosocket is a fake fuel saver that has been doing the rounds for a very long time under various other names. It's a scam product that makes bold claims of 10 to 30% fuel savings due to smoothing the power of your vehicle's electrical system.
It does contain a token gesture capacitor, but the value is so low in relation to your vehicle's electrical system that it is irrelevant. The other components are basically an LED and more resistors than are needed to make it look more technical.
The one redeeming feature of this scam is that the case seems to have been custom designed for it. That's quite impressive for a fake product. Especially the shaped surround for the pointless capacitor and the luxurious translucent dome for the LED. It's supposed to be a blue LED but this cloned version is fitted with a red one - probably because cheap blue LEDs are less reliable than cheap red ones, and they didn't want to refund people for units that stop lighting up, since that's all the thing really does.
It's quite amusing that this is one of many fake products that have been cloned en-masse in China, where they will drop-ship them on demand for the new generation of online scammers. (The scammers just send a list of addresses and the Chinese warehouses post them to the customers directly.)
Nice case though. It might have other uses.

Quite amusing that your exposing another scam device and YouTube play an advert for one of those ECO devices that plug in to the OBD socket.
Reminds me of a St. Christopher's plaque. Which is meant to prevent car accidents.
lol fuel saver
"As seen on TV" Wow! Who knew I could save on gas with two resistors, a fuse, a capacitor and an led!
Amazes me the flaming responses when you call them out on their shite.
This product has the same potential to improve your car's performances as inserting a USB flash drive has to make your computer run faster! I know there's a sucker born every minute, but how ignorant would a person have to be to think their car's power outlet is actually connected to the engine, fuel pump or valves?!
I'm as thick as two short planks and even I know that's a piece of crap, why a Neo, socket, Neo as in The Matrix?
some people have no shame…
Could have sworn these work by regulating your power but to such a tiny small degree all they technically do is waste a minimal amount of power
What I don't get is. We live in a age of mandatory education. Yet, we still have people that believe something that drains electricity from your car with no access to your engine or onboard computer will somehow change how much fuel your car will use for the better. It makes as much sense as downloading an app on your smartphone to improve your digestion.
Thea's fuel saver things have been around since the 1970's. There was one you plug this box into your battery, and it generate steam and you plug the steam pipe into the car manifold, or some were, and it will save your fuel bill. Does it work, YES. Does it save fuel NO
Perfect for preventing hysteria…
LOL yeah esp if it just connects to the cigarette lighter outlet, that's strictly power, no connection to the computer. for that it'd have to connect to the OBD2 port
