Possiblility to increase the "percieved" efficientcy of a cell.

There is one thing that has been bothering me lately and that is the massive amount of wasted power in these cells... These cells being all the cells i have seen. Electrical current is only slowed/diminished by resistance until it hits its sink... now everyone is using seperate lines of power in order to get their cells to work, but what about efficientcy? why cant we use the "tail end" or insert something in front of the power chain for the cell. There is already a lot of amps cycling around the engine bay as it is. can we not "Tap" into one of these lines and have the power for the cell run further down stream... then the only power consumed by the cell will be the resistance of it...
example (please note that this is only an example and not to be taken as the placement as it won't work)
Battery----Cell----fuel pump (i know the fuel pump isn't always running and it doesn't have a high amp line) but you see my point... there maybe some nasty electronics needed but the efficientcy of your cell has now increased by a lot. As some of the unused current from the cell is now being used by the fuel pump. But in order for this to happen the Fuel pump needs to be on constantly...
This idea of "chaining" electrical items is not uncommon and can decrease the amount of drain on the system...
Looking at maybe placing smaller less draining cells on seperate electrical lines.
Just something i have been mulling over

resistances in series are voltage dividers.
and with resistances in series, total currents is determine by the resistance sum, each resistance having the same currents passing trough it.

if your cell has a really low resistance, you coulds try hooking it between the alternator and the battery.
but this will cause you a drop in the voltage reaching the battery.

This is a good spot except for one small problem... if you want the use of amps while your battery is fully charged then the alternator won't produce it... but the idea is there... i don't know of many cars that have a constant drain in the 10-20 amp range for any part of their car (drain on all the time)... But the idea first would need someone to test their cell to see the voltage and amp losses from each side of their cell...

i don't know of many cars that have a constant drain in the 10-20 amp range for any part of their car (drain on all the time)...

think about it again.

to where are all the electric things of a car connected too ?
are your car's head light always on when the car is running ?

but the problem still remain, no matter where you place the cell, resistances in series are voltage dividers.

ok wel obviously i am not describing my intentions well enough... i will attempt it and display results...
