The Solar Stik™ System is classified as a Tactical Quiet Generator (TQG).

It has been named "TESS" (Tactical Electric Solar System) by the U.S. Army's Rapid Equipping Force and the Testing & Evaluation Command (USATEC).

Solar Stik™ Inc. is developing a PRO-Verter™ APM 3000 that integrates with a 3000W Tactical Quiet Generator (TQG) manufactured by

DRS Fermont.

The package is being developed through a CRADA  with DoD

and is in final testing stages.

Military-grade Construction

In today's modern military, keeping ahead of the enemy is aided by tactical electronics, but it's often difficult to find spare batteries or recharging ability in the field.

The future of warfare will likely include the ability to harness power from the surrounding environment, lessening the dependence on traditional power generation and logistics. Reducing the burden of fuel storage, transport, and generator maintenance aids in streamlining operations, especially when Forces are deployed into a remote or austere environment.

Currently, a typical infantry platoon needs to carry more than 150 pounds of batteries if it's going on a five-day mission.

Modern Warfighters employ multiple devices that

require electricity

Military batteries power a laundry list of electronics such as night vision devices, image intensification devices, IR devices, laser range finders, long range & short range communications equipment, GPS, and even battlefield-ready laptop computers.

The average energy need for the soldier is rising, yet his options for recharging his equipment are often limited to traditional fuel-driven power generation, or large, folding, flexible solar panels that produce limited amounts of power and recharge one device at a time.

Solar Stik™ offers a wide variety of power generation systems designed for the warfighter. 

*  Flexible Panel Systems are designed for highly mobile applications where a small footprint & high power yield is required

*  Solar Stik™ Systems provide a power platform that is versatile, effective, and multi-faceted

Lightweight, rugged, and portable, all of our systems are designed using basic principles:

Mobility
Self-Sufficiency
Quality American Craftsmanship
Expandability
Adaptability ("Open Architecture")

All of our systems can be assembled or broken down in minutes, allowing for rapid deployment in the field.

When compared to traditional fuel-driven generators, there is no logistical support, noise, heat signatures, or hazardous chemicals.

The Solar Stik™ System is designed to work in conjunction with existing power sources such as Diesel-fueled Tactical Quiet Generators (TQG), or as an independent power supply when conditions warrant.  All Solar Stik™ Systems provide as much autonomy as is possible for any given situation.

The Solar Stik™ transports easily and can often be used in place of

fuel-driven power generation.

The system can be deployed and operational for just an hour, or indefinitely.  It is as temporary or permanent as necessary.  Additionally, the Power Pak's AGM battery bank is DOT approved for air transport, allowing for airlift of the Solar Stik™ System into a remote area for field deployment.

Customize the Solar Stik™ System with custom accessories and appliance solutions, maximizing the versatility of your particular application.

Solar Stik's™ Education section provides the operator with a comprehensive understanding of how the system can be used in any given application.  The open architecture of the system allows implementation into portable power markets where previous methods and practices often fall short of expectations.
