Do you have any idea how it happened?

ever seen one swell?

Yup I have but then again I have seen many others (insert brand name here) do as well. If you wire up a bank that creates a current bottleneck you will have issues no matter what it is. What might work great for 3000 watts might be a bad idea for 6000+. Another factor is engine heat..

one of the 3 companies i just mentioned has an offer on the table to buy them out. and since kinetik owns stinger now i guess you know who //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif audiolife seems to to think kinetik does not make shuriken or own stinger so i just had to rub it in lolz. he thinks cuz he is supposedly a dealer he knows it all, but i am a direct distributor and it comes from the horses mouth.

They do not own stinger. Stinger is a marketing company (Call up Odyssey and ask them if they make the stinger cells).I am not a dealer I just so happened to have worked there from fall 2005 to spring 2006. I am also very good friends with Pat have been since before there was a Kinetik or HC Power. You also have said Kinetik makes XS power before to.

Kinetik does not own Stinger. Stinger is AAMP of America, AAMP also (now) owns Phoenix Gold. Kinetik is not the manufacturer of Stinger Batteries or anyone elses batteries. Kinetik gets them from a company in China with US ties (Los Angeles if I remember correctly). It's the same company that makes the Shuiken Batteries for Metra and the Audio Force batteries. If memory serves me, the Odyssey Batteries are manufactured by Hawker who makes the Stinger and Scosche batteries.

I heard something was up with Kinetik too, but haven't been able to confirm. It would ****, the guys over there are great. Rich is a bit hyper but really cool.

I think kinetiks are ok, i personally have one up front, but i have two hx400frs in the back, stock alt and voltages stays around 13.8-14 full tilt on stock alt

i think the hx400frs are better bang for buck, just my opinion though

Also..one thing I noticed that wasnt in the box were the screws that go on the top of the battery like the battery terminals or whatever..do those come when you buy the batteries? if so that guy better send me those **** things.

ccab i have a feeling you'll be making a thread saying you car burned down soon because you lack common sense

how do I lack common sense? I asked a simple question whether the battery terminals were supposed to come with the battery or not? What does that have to do with common sense? If they dont come with the battery then I will need to purchase some..if they do im going to get the guy to ship them to me...whats so hard to understand?
