1. What is "AdPower"?

As shown in the photo, it is a small sticker, and you can keep driving your car for a long time just by sticking it on the air cleaner of the engine, and you can become an eco-friendly car!

2. About the mechanism of AdPower

At first, you may think, "Does the engine really improve just by sticking such a small sticker?"

Here, I will briefly explain how AdPower works.

AdPower has a three-layer structure, consisting of a first layer using a special pigment, a second layer made of a special alloy, and a third layer of a thin, high-performance fiberglass.

This three-layer structure suppresses static electricity in the intake air of the engine and improves combustion, leading to improved fuel efficiency and reduced exhaust gas.

Especially, it is very effective for second hands cars with

reduced engine performance!

 

All 5 types of AdPower

AdPower is prepared for gasoline cars, diesel cars, and motorcycles, and there are five types in total. Please refer to the above table for prices and specifications.

Fortunately, many customers have satisfactions that the accelerator feels better from the moment the AdPower is installed!

You are reading this article, please experience the "power of cars climbing uphill", where the usual uphill slopes go swiftly after installing AdPower.

3. How to install it?

It's very easy to install and can be done in a couple of minutes!

After opening the hood, just open the air cleaner box next to the engine and stick it inside.

Even those who have never opened the hood can install it immediately!

The service life is 2 years.

Please refer to the video and attach it at home.

 

 

4. Challenge!

The AdPower movement, which started with one person at first, also obtained a patent, and the number of users and business partners gradually increased, and sales at

AUTOBACS began in September 2019. In order to visualize the effects of the products and further expand the effects,

we started joint research at the Ochiai Laboratory, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Tokai University from November 2019, and

AdPower will continue to grow without stopping. 

Please look forward to the future activities of AdPower and the useful information on our cars that will be posted on our blog.

It's a time when the rows of ginkgo trees are beautiful. I'm careful about corona measures as winter approaches, but how are you doing?

In November 2018, we were selected as an exhibitor at the Japan Pavilion sponsored by JETRO (Japan External Trade Organization) at the Lagos International Trade Fair in Nigeria. The photo above is the tent of the exhibition hall.

There are no direct flights to Lagos, and transfers in the Middle East (Dubai and Qatar) are common, taking about 20 hours. In addition, since yellow fever vaccination is essential for entry, I vaccinated at the Tokyo Quarantine Station about two weeks before departure. It was the most painful experience of injections such as vaccination against influenza.

The booth with the TV is our AdPower booth.
By the way, the right side was Toyota's local subsidiary and the other side was Honda. It was a very fun exhibition where I could interact with the local people.

With this exhibition as a trigger, we signed a distributor agreement for Adpower, and AdPower began to play an active role in Nigeria.

AdPower is also available for sale in this garage.

Even in Nigeria, there are overwhelmingly many Toyota cars. In emerging countries such as Nigeria, the ratio of aged cars that have passed more than 5 years and 10 years is high, maintenance with genuine parts is not done much, and the fuel quality seems to be inferior to Japan and other developed countries.

Therefore, the combustion efficiency of the engine is not perfect, and problems such as an increase in exhaust gas will occur.

Due to the recent corona vortex, Nigeria's trading volume is not large this year, but it is expected to grow in the young country with a population of about 200 million and a population of 15 years or younger of 40% or more.

If the COVID-19 converges,  I would like to visit again there.

How are you all doing?　This time is Mongolia, the third introduction of Adpower's contribution overseas.

Speaking of Mongolia, it is an image of a very brave people, such as the conquest of the Eurasian continent of Genghis Khan and the Mongol invasion.

However, I think there are surprisingly few people who have actually been to Mongolia. I also visited for the first time last year.

A direct flight from Mongolia departs from Narita and arrives at Chinggis Khaan International Airport in the capital Ulaanbaatar in just over five hours. Recently, Japanese companies have also entered the market, and the hotel stayed at the familiar Toyoko Inn Ulaanbaatar.

Mr. Bat, the representative of the Adpower distributor company, and Mr. Pagmaa, the wife and deputy representative, arranged this visit for the purpose of reducing the exhaust gas (PM2.5) of the Ulaanbaatar municipal bus company.

The top photo shows the actual measurement of black smoke concentration on a bus.

AdPower suppresses static electricity in the engine air cleaner (intake), increases the air flow rate to the engine combustion chamber by about 5 to 10%, and improves combustion efficiency. Since the combustion is improved, not only the PM2.5 in question can be reduced, but also the output (horsepower / torque) and fuel efficiency can be expected to be improved. In fact, the local bus drivers said, "The start is better" and "The engine noise is quieter."

In the black smoke measurement test in the field, PM2.5 was reduced by 40% or more, depending on the condition of each measurement vehicle.

Until now, it was common sense to collect exhaust gas after combustion with a DPF (diesel particulate filter) as shown in the above figure.

Of course, it is an indispensable part because it can collect nearly 100% of PM2.5 etc.

However, in emerging countries such as Mongolia, unfortunately, the quality of fuel such as diesel is inferior to that of developed countries, and the vehicles used are aged vehicles of 10 years or more, some of which are 30 to 30 to Vehicles that are 40 years old are still running.

Therefore, even if the DPF is installed, it uses diesel with a high sulfur content, which causes clogging of the DPF, and even if daily cleaning is performed, the clogging cannot be completely removed, resulting in a power down of the vehicle.

For example, in Mongolia, it seems that there are problems with the operation of buses.

And AdPower was adopted at the Ulaanbaatar Municipal Bus Company to reduce emissions (PM2.5).

And I will introduce the local meals. Exactly "meat! "was. It's a popular restaurant with locals, probably with few foreigners and crowded with locals. (November 2019 at that time) Volume of lamb and beef! The white one is like a seasoned dumpling skin, and there is a coleslaw in the middle, but it was delicious, but the amount was too large to finish, so I took it back to the hotel. Is it because of the history of the horse race and its eating habits that the people of Mongolia are powerful?

It is a long-established department store. It says 1924 in the upper left, so it was probably founded in 1924. I also bought souvenirs here.

Now, with covid-19, online meetings have become mainstream in an environment where it is difficult to travel abroad. However, it is also important to directly touch the local situation and meet in person to feel the atmosphere of the other party. The good thing about business trips is that you can enjoy delicious local meals after work, but for the time being, business trips are still difficult. I want to end it soon.
