BOLDER Technologies Forecasts Fourth Quarter Net Revenue

    GOLDEN, Colo., Dec. 28 BOLDER Technologies Corporation
announced that the preliminary net revenue forecast for the
fourth quarter ending December 31, 2000 would approximate $2.0 million vs.
$1.435 million actual net revenue in the third quarter of 2000 and
$1.803 million actual net revenue in the fourth quarter of 1999.  For the
six-month period of July to December 2000, the preliminary projection for net
revenue is $3,435,000, compared to $1,859,309 for the same period a year ago,
according to Roger F. Warren, chairman, president and CEO.
    Warren continued, "For the year 2000, we believe we can achieve net
revenue of approximately $4,400,000, compared to $2,029,316 for 1999, an
increase of 116%.  While this represents a significant sales increase
year-to-year, the projected gain in fourth quarter 2000 net revenue is below
previous expectations reflecting the overall slowdown in the retail sector.
We anticipate substantially increased net revenue in 2001 over 2000, based on
the Spring 2001 introduction of the two new previously announced products --
the MiniMax 900 Portable Jump Starter for automobiles and the SideKick 900
Intelligent Starting Battery System for boats."
    These preliminary revenue estimates are subject to final accounting and
audit processes and, therefore, could change.
    The Mini Max 900 weighs only three pounds, starts a car with a dead
battery immediately and can be stored in a glove compartment or a side-door
panel of the vehicle.  The SideKick 900 weighs only five pounds and attaches
to an existing boat battery.  When connected to an existing boat battery, the
SideKick 900 automatically takes over the starting function, guarantees a
start under almost any conditions and extends the service life of a
traditional starting battery by up to 40%.  When connected to a deep cycle
marine energy battery, the SideKick 900 can extend battery system life by up
to 400% for most boat owners.
    BOLDER commenced shipments of the SecureStart(TM) Portable Jump Starter in
September 1999.  SecureStart(TM) is a small, lightweight, rechargeable device
that can provide an instant engine start on a dead battery in a car, truck,
tractor or boat.  It features a built-in flashlight and cable clamps for jump
starting, weighs less than five pounds, can be easily stored in any vehicle
and recharges in minutes.
