Bluetti Portable Power Stations

Bluetti is the solution that I recommend for off-grid, portable power. We could discuss complicated, technical specifications until everyone has lost interest, but the bottom line is that Bluetti offers products that are better than most at a price that is equivalent or lower. Just go with Bluetti for you off-grid, portable power needs. I’m confident you will be glad you did.

One of Bluetti’s newest power stations is the AC240. We had the opportunity to test and review the AC240 recently, and it is a beast! See our video review of the AC240 to learn more.

Prints & Digital Downloads

A selection of my favorite photos are now available as prints. Additionally, photos and video clips are also available for digital download.. Drop me an email (robert.witham@gmail.com) if you don’t see a photo that you would like as a print and I will add it to the gallery.

Recommended Gear

A carefully curated selection of gear may be the difference between whether a journey is memorable for the right reasons or the wrong reasons. My approach to gear is to invest in those things that provide the most value or utility – and hopefully serve more than one function.

Phone & Internet

  • Mobile Internet Resource Center – This comprehensive site by Cherie Ve Ard and Chris Dunphy of Technomadia provides top-quality information on cell/data plans as well as devices from hotspots to boosters. This is my go-to site for accurate and reliable information on all things related to cell/data plans and related devices. Mobile Internet Resource Center is a membership site, but there is a lot of free content available. It is probably worth joining though if you are concerned with the most up-to-date and advanced information.
