Didn’t you know?

They add 15kw

ahhh, I see , a bit like a vortex generator...bit like hi-clone?

Do they? It that accumulative gain?
If I get 4 of them, will there be 60kw gain? Of course the space wheel won't contribute

This is still common in the States for camper trailers and jeep trailers, effectively allowing one to have a few 'active spares' if ever needed.....of course, meaning one would need to later come back for the trailer should things ever be so dire.
