NorthStar Touts Automotive Batteries' Performance in 'Torture Tests'


Feb 14, 2013 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- NorthStar announced its Ultra High Performance Batteries proved to be the best of the best after outperforming the competition through two brutal 'torture tests'.

According to a release, the 'Winch' and 'Boombox' tests were conducted by JP Magazine for their March 2013 issue, using Group 34 size batteries from all of the top manufacturers.

In the 'Winch' test, the NorthStar G34M Battery pulled a jeep weighing 6,500 lbsa distance of 471 ft. That's almost 100 ft further than the closest competitor battery, made by Odyssey, which could only manage 382 ft. The Die Hard Platinum managed 352 ft and the Optima Yellow 307 ft.



In the 'Boombox' test, the NorthStar Battery had enough power to run a custom-made 40 amp sound and lighting system for 95 minutes. Again, the Odyssey could only last for 92 min, the Optima 84 min and the Die Hard Platinum 81 min.
