IAAEE... It is just a capacitor.

In principle, adding a large capacitor to your battery would smooth out any short dips or clamp any short pulses-- in the same way that people add capacitors with high power audio systems to prevent voltage drop under load...

I don't believe you could get a large enough capacitor to make an appreciable difference for 25$... so I doubt it will have much effect...
