NorthStar Powers Five New World Records

NorthStar Battery has unveiled the new SMS-AGM480 and SMS-AGM80 products to celebrate five new world records set at the United States Autosound Competition International (USACI) Texas Heatwave and INAC Isaca world finals in Alabama.

Jake Jesty, Amos Williams and Craig Meaux from Team Dip-Tex out of Texas, Chris Russ and Sam Gagliardi all set world records thanks to the unbeatable performance of their NorthStar Batteries.

Chris hit 163.4Db in the Street Beat 4 Outlaw class and 147.5Db in the Xtreme 4 Midwest SPL class. He uses a whopping 11 NorthStar NSB-AGM31 Batteries to power his monster system.

Jake recorded 153.7Db in the Street Beat 5 Outlaw class using 4 NorthStar SMS-AGM400s. Amos also reached 153.7Db in the Stock 0-1800 Outlaw class with 2 NorthStar NSB-AGM31s.

Craig hit 148.5Db in the Street Beat 2 Legal class using 4 NorthStar SMS-AGM200s.

Sam set a 151.1Db in the trunk 2 class using 2 Northstar SMS-AGM220s batteries. He beat the previous record of 149.9 that was set earlier in the day.

NorthStar’s Ultra High Performance Batteries use innovative Pure Lead Thin Plate AGM Technology to create more surface area inside the battery, which produces more power than the competition, especially in extreme applications like car audio competitions.

“I want to congratulate these world record holders on behalf of NorthStar Battery – it’s an outstanding achievement,” said John Semeniuk, Vice President, NorthStar Battery. “Our batteries are made to be the best, and every time they’re put to the test they come out on top. No one else makes a battery that can consistently deliver these kind of world record performances.”

The new SMS-AGM480 and SMS-AGM80 products expand the range of record breaking batteries designed for extreme audio and marine applications.

“The SMS-AGM480 is a monster battery,” says John. “I’m looking forward to seeing more world records broken with that one.”
