rust prevention by electronics - anyone using?

sacrificial anode ... i.e. a more reactive chunk of metal that you attach to the car. These ones sort of work... its like a half arsed version of gavanising. To make these work properly you need to put one on each panel as they don't cover a very large range. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=50138&item=4551986720&rd=1



I had a "Rust Arrestor" brand on my Pajero and never had a spot of rust in the 8 years I owned it -



I have had the RODE electronic rust protection on my hilux 4x4 since 1991.The ERPS system is supposed to be very good as well

Ships, boats, yatchs... they all have it especially if they use bronze propellers.

It can be DIY, very simple circuit design.

[oldskool]

I used to have one of these on my KE55. I don't actually know if it worked or not, I think it did because the electrodes got oxidised etc. But then the main control unit malfunctioned (went into error mode) and then it didn't work anymore...

I thought i posted something like this sometime few months ago. Someone was selling it in Zth also. I remember that time lelong also got someone selling it for RM399. That time no one seems to be interested as his advertisments seem to target only classic and vintage cars. There were another seller at lelong too where he states his anti-rust product as ECU safe. That was soooo few months ago.
