C'mon guys, nobody has ever heard of these? Check these 2 links and tell me what you think www.lsgbrisk.com www.halo-sparkplugs.com
Anything that helps with the gas $ where they are is going to be a benefit. These plugs sound interesting, but I would like to here from some guys that really know mechanics and see if these things sound like they might work.

Multiple sparks from just one ignition pulse? That's virtually impossible. Just like the Bosch +2 and +4 plugs. No matter how many electrodes they have, there's just ONE spark. I'd save my money. The only way to reduce your fuel cost is by getting a lighter vehicle. Bolt-ons like this are just going to drain your wallet even faster.

That was kinda my thought on it too. I usually don't look twice, but this co has been around since 1934 and allot of fleet services including schools and police depts (some of which are here locally)are using them so I thought maybe they were legit. I'll have to re-read it, don't remember it saying anything about multiple sparks, I thought it was just supposed to be 1 fully efficient spark. Like I said I'm not into wasting $, but if things like this work even a little they will def. pay for themselves.

If you can talk to a local fleet that is using them, maybe they'd even show them to you, pull one out so you can see its condition, that'd be nice. They've likely already done the ROI analysis, too, so maybe they've uncovered some good data.
But I don't know of even high-end auto makers (like Ferrari, Porsche, etc) who use these, so I'm *just guessing here* that they may not be what they claim. But that's not the first time that's happened, right?
If you can get good first-hand experience from a local fleet who is happy with them, and would show you their ROI data, that'd probably make me a believer, too.
