Did you know that Monster Trucks are empowering and therapeutic? #MonsterTrucks

Hi Guys,

They are! Here’s why:

Have you ever considered that playing with Hot Wheels Monster Trucks is not only fun, but also a beneficial activity for your kids? Monster Trucks can be an excellent stress reliever for your child. The feeling of control they have over the truck and the power it possesses can be empowering and therapeutic. It can help them blow off steam and ease any pent-up frustrations they may be feeling.

Monster trucks can also be a great way for your child to get some exercise and fresh air. Running around, pushing, pulling the truck, and playing in the dirt can help them burn off some calories and improve their cardiovascular health. Plus, getting outside and soaking up some Vitamin D from the sun can boost their mood and immune system.

The physical benefits of playing with monster trucks can also help your child develop problem-solving skills. As they navigate obstacles and create their own jumps and ramps, they'll start to develop critical thinking and spatial reasoning abilities. They'll also learn how to adjust and adapt their strategy as they encounter new challenges.

Hot Wheels Monster Trucks can help improve your child's hand-eye coordination. Manoeuvring the monster truck around obstacles and slamming it into things takes a lot of precision and control. Over time, they'll develop better hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills, which can transfer to other areas of their life, like sports or playing musical instruments.

Also, they can be a great way for your child to bond with friends and family. Whether they're competing in races, creating obstacle courses, or just smashing things together, the stress relief, shared experience, and light mood around playing with monster trucks, in general, create connections that benefit everyone as they create lasting memories.

So, why not consider adding monster trucks to your child's playtime activities? Let their imaginations come alive and conquer any obstacles in their way while they get some exercise, improving problem-solving and hand-eye coordination skills. Sounds like the ultimate birthday gift.

Till next time...Aashish

Thanks! Cheers!!!

Author of The Billionaire Mindset Daniel Strauss Launched New Book and Talk Show

Hi Guys,

Daniel Strauss, author of the best-seller, The Billionaire Mindset, will be releasing a brand-new book on 5 May 2023, which will be available online and in all good bookstores nationwide.

The Billionaire Career tells the story of Dan, an employee who lives from paycheque to paycheque.

He dreams about starting his own business and being his own boss but faces various challenges. How will he start a successful business without any money?

One day, Dan is confronted with a big decision that changes his whole future... It is important to note that his latest offering reads like a novel, and differs completely from his first book, The Billionaire Mindset, and is therefore not a sequel.

Author of The Billionaire Mindset Daniel Strauss Launched New Book and Talk Show

In The Billionaire Career, Strauss shares useful, practical advice that all entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs will benefit from through Dan’s journey. The story contains valuable information on how to create wealth, how to learn more about yourself, give back, and build sustainable business systems.

Readers will easily relate to Dan, especially entrepreneurs or those in the early stages of owning their own businesses or who are still dreaming of starting their own companies.

Strauss successfully communicates complex business terminology such as shareholder value, risk vocabulary, and mentoring through Dan’s story, making it easy to understand by painting a beautiful picture that brings perspective and clarity and pushes you out of your comfort zone.

As in his previous book, the business term “Think above the line”, which Strauss created, comes into play once again. This time, it becomes even more clear what it means to “think above the line”, and you easily identify with Dan as an entrepreneur.

Daniel also incorporates the natural beauty of South Africa into the story and writes about seven beautiful places, the seven “weekend wonders”, that Dan must visit, which will inspire readers to look up these destinations and add them to their own bucket lists!

Strauss is a successful entrepreneur who invests in small- and medium-sized businesses to help them grow faster. He is the Strauss in the investment company, Stocks & Strauss and grew up in a small South African town called Keimoes on the banks of the Orange River, about 40 km from Upington and about 800 km from Cape Town.

He sold newspapers to earn an extra income when he was young. He promised himself that one day he would give back and use his knowledge to teach people how to open their minds and increase their chances of success.

Daniel Strauss believes that we are the strong people who create good times and that we have authority over our circumstances.

If there are enough entrepreneurs who come together and think at the same level, it can make a huge difference, he believes. It can help grow the economy, reduce unemployment, and build a better South Africa for everyone.

He talks to influential businesspeople like Christo Wiese, Dr Chris van der Merwe and Jo-Ann Strauss about this and the life lessons they’ve learned in his new TV talk show, Meer as net ’n loopbaan, which will be airing on VIA from 8 May 2023.

BLUETTI Launched in South Africa to Help Buffer Load-shedding @bluetti_za

Hi Guys,

Due to the failure of additional power-generating units and the delay in returning other units to service, Eskom announces load-shedding to stage 6 from 16:00 on Sunday, 7 May 2023 and expects to continue implementing this level of power cuts throughout the coming weeks.

“This is the first winter Eskom will enter with its Koeberg nuclear power station completely offline,” Bheki Nxumalo said, Eskom’s head of generation. He also said the power utility’s lack of generation capacity would likely make for a challenging winter this year.

Switching out certain home appliances or optimizing their consumption may help you survive power cuts or slash your electric bills. Yet, you can also make arrangements for alternative energy suppliers, such as a solar generator, to fend off load-shedding in the upcoming winter.

For many, that means equipping their homes with backup power sources and renewable energy. The leader- BLUETTI, in solar energy-powered generators, has a new model offering incredible power in a modular and mobile package.

BLUETTI Launched in South Africa to Help Buffer Load-shedding @bluetti_za

Introducing BLUETTI

As an industry-leading energy storage company, BLUETTI is dedicated to delivering clean energy to empower communities and individuals. Now it has a wide range of product lineups, including portable power stations for outdoor adventures, backup power stations for outage protection, whole-house battery storage systems for a total off-grid lifestyle at home or business scenarios, and an array of solar panels to make solar energy easily accessible.

With over 10 years of research and innovation, BLUETTI has expanded its reach to over 100 countries and gained the trust of millions of customers worldwide, including North America, Asia, Europe, Australia, etc. BLUETTI AC500, a modular power station that debuted in November 2022, eventually raised over $12 million from 5,183 backers on the fundraising platform - Indiegogo, breaking the world record for any portable power station fundraising event.

BLUETTI is about to make its presence in South Africa, offering various energy storage solutions to every household. Let’s have an in-depth preview of some of the most popular models in the BLUETTI store.

BLUETTI EB3A - Pint-sized dimensions, out-sized capabilities

While considering a portable emergency power backup for load-shedding, BLUETTI EB3A bears the brunt due to its compact size and impressive capability. The 600W output power (1,200W surge) and versatile outputs can juice up numerous essentials during sudden power cuts, such as laptops, lights, TVs, cookers, and more.

EB3A adopts the advanced LiFePO4 battery cells to ensure ultimate reliability and deliver over 2,500 life cycles before reaching its original capacity of 80%. Designed for entry-level users, EB3A makes a constant power supply within handy reach as it supports up to 430W dual charging via AC and PV, so it only takes about 30 minutes to recharge it to 80% capacity, and 45 minutes to 100%.

Thanks to the intelligent BLUETTI App, you can remotely control and monitor the power consumption and charging status with a few clicks on your phone. A convenient handle is also included for grab-and-go power whenever and wherever it’s needed.

BLUETTI EB70 - Mobile power with peace of mind

Once the stage 6 load-shedding has been announced, no one in South Africa can be isolated from the grid to be exempt from rotational blackouts.

As a portable solar generator long-loved by a large group of loyal customers, EB70 is nicely designed with superior features and unparalleled performance to help you survive an outage effortlessly.

EB70 boasts a capacity of 716Wh and 1,000W continuous AC power for most devices at home or in the wild. You can flexible to recharge it via AC outlets, solar panels, and a car port. The following recharging time is for your reference:

AC outlets (200W): 4-4.5 hours
Solar panels (OCV 12-28V, 200W): 4-4.5 hours
12V car port: 7.5-8 hours

Measuring 12.6 x 8.5 x 8.7in (LxWxH) and weighing only 21lbs, the sleek design of EB70 can spare you a world of hassle when moving it from one place to another.

BLUETTI AC200MAX - Expandable Power Beast for Every Need

With sufficient backup power in hand, you don’t have to rely on the state-owned utility exclusively to power your home. Now, another highly recommended power station - AC200MAX, with a maximum output of 2,200W (4,800W surge) and 2,048Wh capacity, is sure to save you from frustrating blackouts.

Moreover, the capacity can grow up to 6,144Wh and 8,192Wh while pairing with 2*B230 (2,048Wh per pack) or 2*B300 expansion batteries (3,072Wh per pack), respectively. AC200MAX supports 7 ways to efficiently recharge, though, most customers prefer solar charging that allows a max input rate of 900W or 1,400W fast dual recharging via solar panels and AC outlets simultaneously. Rest assured that your life won’t be interrupted by load-shedding in any way.

Final Thoughts

According to Eskom, South Africa has a shortfall of 6,000MW of electricity, which means load-shedding will be a part of life for at least five years.

Optimize your household power consumption with BLUETTI’s reliable and innovative solar generators and get well-prepared before winter sets in, rest assured that your life won’t be interrupted by load-shedding in any way.
