About Us
Black Box Power Systems is a company we developed directly from our personal experiences with losing household power, specifically driven by having no real cost effective options to maintain power to a refrigerator during a power outage.
We are a company comprised of twin brothers from Central Pennsylvania who have been drafting up product ideas for years. What makes this product line unique for us is that it directly relates to our years of experience in the energy industry ranging from Engineering to Operations to Maintenance.
Our product line was born from the fact that in September 2011, we both lost power due to a severe weather system and had to stressfully try and figure out how to save our expensive food products before they spoiled.
All the research we performed showed us that no cost effective products were available to support the basic needs during a power outage. Most consumers have no desire to spend thousands of dollars for a gas-powered portable generator or stand-alone home generator to manage a typical power outage that normally gets restored within 12 hours. Add in the fact of having to deal with the external fuel source, physical handling to get the generator set-up and the “hope” that it will work long enough until the power is restored.
This research and ultimate conclusion is what motivated us to develop our own product line to solve these problems. Over the past 13 years we have created multiple prototypes, tested each product and incorporated many lessons learned over multiple power outages to reach our final product, ready for use by any consumer.
We have selected and perfected the correct components to ensure reliability, safety, longevity, portability, and affordability. We designed our products to be a plug-and-play power pack that can be placed out-of-sight providing you with the peach of mind knowing that it will work when called upon.
Imagine you are away from home, such as at work or an event, and you get a notification that your home just lost power. With a Black Box Power System in place and connected, you can rest assured that power will automatically transfer from the Black Box to your device without having to take any action! Once power is restored to your home the power is automatically transferred back and the Black Box will recharge back to a ready state.
Today’s market currently has multiple battery pack options available for purchase however our product line is the ONLY product line that supports:
Automatic Transfer
Slim Design
Ease-of-handling
Couple these benefits with the simple fact that our products are affordable to the everyday consumer, offer viability to utilize in many different situations, and have the ability to incorporate additional battery packs to extend the power life for longer duration power outages, the choice is clear - Black Box products are ready to provide you with the peace-of-mind you need during a power loss!
