We’re excited to shine a spotlight on a recent collaboration with one of YouTube’s most trusted voices in off-grid energy and solar technology: Ben Gilmore, the creator behind the channel Minute Man Solar.
With over 60,000 subscribers, Ben has built a loyal following by providing honest, hands-on reviews and insights into solar installs, battery systems, and all things green energy. As both a solar installer and an advocate for sustainable living, Ben’s content speaks directly to people who care about resilience, independence, and real-world performance—not hype.
A Day in LA: Real Access. Real Stories.
Ben spent a day on the ground with the Komodo Systems team in Los Angeles, CA, where he got unprecedented access to our operations.
From the moment he arrived, Ben’s camera was rolling—capturing everything from product testing to team interviews, manufacturing walkthroughs, and even off-road demos of the Komodo All-Terrain Power Station.
Our entire team—from engineers and designers to the warehouse crew—was proud to pull back the curtain. We believe in transparency, and Ben’s journalistic approach aligns perfectly with our mission: building next-generation energy solutions that don’t just work on paper—they work when it counts.
What to Expect From the Upcoming Videos
Ben is currently producing several high-value videos based on his time with us. Here’s what’s on deck:
🔋 Komodo Full Breakdown / Review
The Komodo is a beast—and Ben’s full review will break down every detail, from its 100kWh battery capacity and 18kW inverter, to its 360-degree maneuverability, towing strength, and EV charging capabilities. If you’ve ever wondered what makes the Komodo truly unique, this is the deep dive you’ve been waiting for.
The Komodo video will be released on 4/18
🧪 How the Cells are Manufactured
Ben’s behind-the-scenes access gave him an up-close look at how we process high-quality lithium cells, reducing waste and breathing life into every watt. He’ll take viewers into the lab, through the assembly process, and explore how we test each battery for safety, reliability, and performance before it ever leaves our doors.
⚡ Walrus G4 Review
The Walrus G4 is BatteryEvo's latest compact home backup solution—and Ben’s review will focus on its real-world use cases, from home power outages to portable solar integration. Expect honest feedback on setup, features, and the benefits of going off-grid without sacrificing convenience.
Why Minute Man Solar Matters
In a crowded space of paid endorsements and surface-level reviews, Minute Man Solar stands out. Ben’s reputation is built on credibility, and his viewers trust him to test products in real-world environments, not just unbox them.
By partnering with creators like Ben, we hope to bring unfiltered, honest information to the people who matter most—our future customers, DIYers, homesteaders, contractors, and eco-minded homeowners looking for power they can count on.
Stay Tuned — Big Videos Are Coming
We’re honored to be part of Ben’s journey as he continues to explore the frontier of solar power and energy independence. We believe his upcoming videos will serve as an educational tool and inspiration to those who want more control over their power—without compromise.
