Magnum introduces charging system for the electric car

Autos No Comments »

 

Magnum is one of the world’s leading battery charging systems for electric car conversion. Since the advent of the electric car, they have been developing battery charging systems specifically for use by these cars. They have been able to set up these systems just like gas stations and charging cars.

The Magnum system is very effective and will protect the batteries that they charge. Before they apply the current, the system will first determine the voltage level of each battery. It will then charge the lowest one first before it comes to the next above it. This way, the system will charge all the batteries to a basic current before it begins a full charge.

Water For Gas: It’s Not Fantasy Anymore.

Autos No Comments »

If I was to hear someone tell me they used water to improve their gas mileage just a few months ago, I would have snuffed it off as sheer fantasy.

But not anymore. The technology actually exists, and has existed for nearly 100 years, to utilize water in a way to increase miles per gallon in motor vehicles.

How? The answer is basic chemistry.

Water is made up of hydrogen and oxygen and by separating the two elements via electrolysis, the resulting gas is a highly efficient gas additive.

Wow, running water for gas. That doesn’t sound like fantasy anymore.

Pre-loss condition of your vehicle still entitles you to the diminished value in California

Autos No Comments »

Many people do not know the different levels of diminished value in California which insurance companies use to determine the value paid. True pre-loss condition is just what is says. The repairs to your vehicle will be made in order to restore it to the condition it was in prior to the accident. This must be completed in all areas that are related to the function of the vehicle, appearance, safety and for matters of warranty preservation. As the owner, you are entitled to be compensated for the loss of retail value in your vehicle, regardless of the extent of the repairs. If you tried to sell your car, you would not receive the full value because it was in an accident.

I am really clueless when it comes to cars so when my brother came up to me last week asking me if I wanted my car converted to H20 I looked at him like he was from Mars. He said he wanted to give my car fuel cell a makeover so my car would not only run on gas it would run on water too. He said it would save me time and money because I wouldn’t be going to the gas station as much and it would also be helping the environment because the water helps your car burn a lot cleaner.

In response to the meteoric rise in gas prices putting millions in a financial crunch, many automobile manufacturers are slimming down the size of their vehicles for greater fuel economy.

One of the latest cars to hit the economy car market is the smart car.

They’re small, but they do great on gas which is why I decided to buy one.

The first place I looked was on one of the local used car websites and searched for a used smart car for sale by owner.

Even though they’re great on gas, I’m sure somebody is willing to part with theirs.

CDW insurance: To buy or not to buy

Autos No Comments »

Most people are unaware if car insurance laws require them to get the CDW (collision damage waiver) insurance when renting a vehicle. If you have collision coverage on your personal insurance policy, it is not absolutely necessary for you to pay extra for the CDW coverage. Of course, this depends on your auto insurance policy and where you will be driving the rental. Also, you might consider paying the extra amount just in case your insurance does not pay the full amount of damages. Therefore, you must become familiar with your insurance policy before getting a rental. Some policies will not cover a rental that you drive in another country.

Boy Racers

Autos No Comments »

How many times on a Friday or Saturday night on the streets of Britain do you see boy racers in their cars driving at top speed up and down the main streets? Typically these cars will be sporting huge exhaust pipes and body kits in an effort to make what was a relatively inexpensive car go much faster and look different from the original manufactures design. One of the most common cars to “benefit” from these kind of ill thought out makeovers is the Vauxhall Corsa. The reason the Corsa is often selected for this kind of thing is that they are cheap and common enough to be able to get extra parts and kits for.  To me it’s a real shame that people do this to a perfectly good car.
