About Me

Hi! I'm Robert and this blog started with my journey of learning about battery banks, generators, and power outage preparations. I've been an avid hobbyist in these fields for nearly a decade and I enjoy sharing what I've learned in a way that's geared for beginners and those just getting their foot in the door with small engine repair and prepping. I've been doing maintenance and handyman work for the last several years and I'll be including little home and garage tips and tricks that I learn along the way as well. Thanks for stopping by!
