Location: St. Ann Catholic Church
System: Butler County
Test time: 1st Wednesday of the month at noon

For the first Wednesday of April, we carpooled Benicio with us to the southernmost Thunderbolt in the city of Hamilton. This 'bolt is located right by a church, and is ironically just across the street from the address of 666 Hooven Avenue, hence why it has been given the nickname "Satanbolt". Tommy and I have had this one on our record list for a while, especially after getting word that it was apparently louder than properly-wired Tunnelbolt. Initially, I was somewhat skeptical of these claims, but any doubts I had immediately vanished once we finally got to experience this in person. This thing was genuinely loud as absolute hell, and I'm not just saying that as a pun. This is one of the loudest Thunderbolts I have ever heard, probably ranking at 2nd place behind the 6M 1000 in Marshall, MO. It peaked my meter at 124.1 dBC from in front of the church, and it rattled every bone in my body when it faced me. This was definitely a fun test, and I'm glad to have finally crossed Satanbolt off my record list. Enjoy!
