Monsters on a Mission: A WOW Story!

WOW! WOW! WOW!

What away to start out a testimonial letter, but that’s what is WOW!

Monsters on a Mission have been fortunate to be able to use, Kinetik batteries and CTEK battery chargers for a few years, with absolute perfection with both products.  We have put these two products through more punishment in one weekend than most will do in a life time.

A brief description of Monsters on a Mission, we are a faith biased monster truck team with five monster trucks need I say more about normal wear and tear, ok I will.  Our trucks weight 10,000 lbs, have 1200-1400 horse power blown and injected methanol motors, the speed 0 to 60 is 2.2 seconds, but here is the big one “can jump 30 feet in a blink of an eye”. A 10,000 lb truck constantly jumping, landing, and pounding these incredible products.

So here is the insane WOW story.  First we have ran over the CTEK battery chargers so many times I cant count, dropped them, last second abuse I wont mention, dropped the Kinetik batteries, but the abuse during constant monster truck pounding from multitudes of car crushing is more than most would in a life time.

This year, 2011 while in Costa Rica during a monster truck show in Jaco, Costa Rica, the unbelievable happened. We finished the show like normal, but what was to happen next is so far from normal with out the pictures and video no one would believe it.  I was there and all I kept saying was, this is not real their is no way this is possible, what your saying, what? We were told by the promoter at 12 midnight we had to be tired down and loaded ready to leave by 3 AM, that is a lot of work 2 monster trucks and re-pack everything in 3 hours, then the lights got turned off, so with flash lights one set of car head lights we went to work in the dark, grass, and dirt.

Are you ready?  In a huge hurry I did not block the tires, ya you guessed it, the custom built jack, powered by a Kinetik battery and charged by a CTEK battery charger, was crushed by a 10000lb monster truck. Having just started we still had one and a half monsters to do, so we used Valco racing silicone and taped with racers tape from ISC, then maneuvered the jack to finish the first truck.  When lowering the jack the jack blew back, but not in time for the 10,000 lb monster to smash the Kinetik battery like a pancake, I mean trashed.  Now we have one more monster truck to tire down. Time is not on our side, do we pull a battery out of one of the monsters than put back to load? Remember, we are out of time, so my brilliant 12 year old son Zac changes the battery cable and uses a vice grips to attach the cable to the crushed beyond believe Kinetik battery and we finish the 2nd truck with no incident! Than we video the jack up and down with a 10,000lb monster on it repeatable WOW, the Kinetik battery and CTEC battery charger have much more than surpassed the words incredible. Please see photos and video attached.

Thank you both for products that can withstand a monster trucks punishment.
