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.
