Customer Reviews

  • Just wanted to thank you for the great service and information in helping me acquire my Kodak solar generator with flat solar panels. In sourcing the system I found your YouTube Channel very helpful and as I said service was great. 5 stars for you.

  • Ben is a valuable resource to answer any questions that may come up and ensures all components are delivered. A real down-to-earth guy, very responsive to any emails and a pleasure to get to know. I highly recommend him when considering portable solar power.

    Joel H.Greensville, NC
  • As you know Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico and we spent months without power. Finding your page and having you answer all questions and concerns I had was extremely helpful. I purchased the system and it worked.

    Paul A.Puerto Rico
  • I found Ben’s website while researching solar powered backup systems. I was impressed by his analysis and comparison of the various units on the market. He was accurate, informative and insightful in his review...I had a few questions, and Ben quickly answered each of them with a complete explanation.

  • Working with you was great! You shipped very quickly to the builders of my new camper, Phoenix Popup Campers in Commerce City, CO. They installed the generator, 3 solar panels, and an expansion battery that are now powering a National Luna 110 ltr. fridge and freezer and a Dish TV RV TO GO satellite system with a 24″ Samsung flat screen. All run great and the unit keeps things fully charged. I would rate 5 stars!

  • Benji was very responsive and delivered what he promised. Pleasure to do business with, would buy from him again.

    Charlie S.Hattiesburg, MS
  • Thanks for a truly great product. Everything arrived in rapid succession. I was able to throw a charge on with the wall charger the first time, as I was too busy to set up the panels. Glad I did! Had a small power outage right after- I was ecstatic. So I was running the LED lights, charging a phone and laptop, running a fan. What a great thing it is!

    Ed C.Staten Island, NY
  • I couldn’t be more satisfied with my [portable solar] Kit from Ben! After hurricane Irma, we were out of power for two weeks. Our gas generator was inconvenient to sustain, primarily because of the long gas station lines and cost. I wanted an alternative power source, began researching solar, and how I found Ben. His site, and videos educated me on solar...Ben promptly responded to my questions before my purchase, and after, offering me tips on best panel set-up configurations.

    Roy D.Miami, FL
  • We really like having the flexible panels because they are very lightweight and easy to move around in the carry cases that come in the kit. With floods and tornadoes that we’ve had in the past we know that we need power and the gas stations are obviously not a viable solution when those disasters come through. This allows us to be able to grab our things and evacuate if we need to. Ben was very helpful and highly recommend working with him if you need help.

  • Ben was a great help to us and quickly responded to questions. Everything arrived in great condition. Some packages arrived at different times to save on shipping costs to us (came directly from the vendor). Everything was easy to put together and all tested out just fine.

    Ken I.Oklahoma City, OK
  • Ben, I want to thank you for all of your help and guidance in my purchase of my solar system from you. You answered all of my questions and I did get the best price from you. Thanks again for all of your help, I love the system.

    Ted O.Lone Tree, CO
  • Here I found EXACTLY what I was looking for, as well as options for kits with different numbers and types of solar panels, as well as several other wonderful accessories, that allowed me to customize the kit I wanted, and at less than half the price I could find anywhere else AND it included accessories, including faraday bags!... I was a bit leery of placing a purchase of several thousand dollars to a person, rather than to a company, but I have been pleasantly surprised...Ben has been very nice and very informative and helpful in letting me know right away of any issues and options. I am very happy with the service I have received and rate it at 5 stars.
