Don't worry about it, man. I dropped out of EE to major in finance so it all looks vaguely familiar...but still pretty much greek to me (and probably most people here that would read it).

Anyway it's probably all correct, but people shouldn't try so hard to make others feel less intelligent.

 

I wasnt trying to make anyone sound stupid at all. Just having a conversation! Just happens to be a field I am trained in so the geek comes out

 

Look, its all good. I dont feel like I am wrong, except for using a bad example of electrons flowing like exhaust. Maybe that was not the best example to use. I feel engifineer is correct because there is a small amount of measurable resistance in wires and I stated it as being zero. For simplicity sake, I said it was zero. So, I apologize to OP for any possible confusion.

 

Hey guyz!

I feel like all my LEDs are robbing my engine of power since they must be putting a greater load on my alternator and making my motor work harder.
I mean I love how jdm my car looks but I need jdm speed too!
You think if I added 12guage wires to the ground of each of them I would get my power back????

Thx!!

 

^^^ YES

 

I think there is more benefit from bypassing your TB coolant lines. And thats FREE!

On a side note - I gave my buddy one of those "engine stabilizers" - He put it on (installed correctly) and tottaly fried his brand new optima battery - Not sure exactly how but it did - Maybe it was because it was one of those cheap eBay one! - There I said it! not all products on eBay are ok!

 

those "engine stabilizers" from what i've seen.. are nothing more than a capacitor pack that semi-regulates voltages from changing..

incorrect installation, wiring, or a faulty unit will damage the vehicle and its battery.. unfortunately what your friend demonstrated.. and... you must've not liked your friend that much if you're the one that gave it to him.
