READING, Pa., (April 2016) – EnerSys® (NYSE:ENS), the global leader in stored energy solutions for industrial applications and the manufacturer of ODYSSEY® batteries, continues as a primary sponsor of the BIGFOOT® monster truck team in 2016.

A long-time sponsor of BIGFOOT 4×4’s racing and display program, ODYSSEY® batteries provide the rugged dry-cell batteries found in the BIGFOOT 4×4’s entire fleet of monster trucks, haulers and shop vehicles.

“The punishing conditions of a monster truck race put ODYSSEY® batteries to the test. Over the years we have seen ODYSSEY® batteries deliver optimum performance and reliability when exposed to these punishing conditions.” said Maria Orlando-Krick, marketing content and sponsorship manager at EnerSys®.  

ODYSSEY® batteries feature a three- to 10-year service life and two-year storage life at 77 degrees Fahrenheit (25 degrees Celsius). They are vibration resistant, classified as “non-spillable” by the U.S. Department of Transportation and include a limited two- to four-year full replacement warranty.

“The partnership between BIGFOOT and ODYSSEY® batteries has led to many championships for our fleet of race trucks,” said Bob Trent, BIGFOOT vice president. “This partnership even led to the world’s first and only all-electric monster truck, ODYSSEY® Battery BIGFOOT #20, which will continue to appear at select events throughout 2016.

The ODYSSEY® battery logo can be seen on all of the BIGFOOT monster trucks, transporters and crew shirts.
