To get a electric supercharger strong enuff to do any goodyou would have to compleatly fill the bed of your truck with batterys to run it for a couple of miniutes.

These things are completely worthless.A supercharger uses about fifty HP to pressurize the cylinders on a V8 engine.Yes I said fifty HP.That's why turbochargers make more power than superchargers.
They might get a few HP just from installing a computer chip but the electric supercharger is nothing but snake oil.
