About

My name is Bob Rapoport, I am the designer of the breakthrough emergency power system system you will learn about here. If you've been a consumer of high performance audio or HDTV video components, you will recognize my name because I've been a technology leader since the early days of the hi fi industry.  I've been awarded two patents, am listed in Who's Who of American Inventors, won Innovations at CES for the best new speaker in the world in 2002, and have led the way in the adoption of the digital throughput for HDTV via  HDMI, and Blu-ray for music.  In 2012, I wrote an article for the leading trade magazine Residential Systems called The Holy Grail of High Fidelity, ranked as the top story of the year.http://newpower-usa.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/residentialSystemsLogo.jpg

In the last decade I spent a lot of time working on power quality management for high performance AV systems, selling the most advanced power conditioners on the market.  Consumers who invested in top of the line AV gear found those systems failed to reach their potential or meet their specs because the power from the utility grid was so noisy, distorted, and unstable.  The best solution I found turned out to be from the IT industry, a device called an Online UPS.  The solar system I designed works the same way, replacing the grid power with a cleaner source.

In early 2012 I began to design a similar type device for the whole house, using the sun as its primary power source.  Battery technology to store the sun's power became the key to making this work.  Suffice to say, Google did not have the answer I was looking for, I had to dig deep to find the right hardware and manufacturers, no solar re-seller or installer had what I wanted to buy.  After Hurricane Sandy struck the Northeast, with millions of homes losing power for several weeks, I quickened my pace and finalized the system you will read about here. This site will show you how to secure your energy future at home to keep you and your family safe when the utility power fails. You will never lose power again and contribute to a sustainable energy future based on the most abundant power source in the universe, the sun.
