Thanks for review I just canceled my hysolis order and got this instead you saved my thousands.

[@minutemanprep]

I'm sorry to hear that. The Apollo is far better than the Segway. But I hope it works for your needs.

[@user82938]

Your leg system is really cool.

[@minutemanprep]

Thanks!

[@mike.briney]

We need to see more about that solar panel stand man! That looks awesome!

[@minutemanprep]

Thank you. The patent process is ongoing right now and as soon as I get the thumbs up from my patent lawyer I'll show everything about it and start the preorder. They are made here in Idaho!

[@mike.briney]

Nice!! Looking forward to it! @@minutemanprep

[@CherokezPittman]

Thank you for your comment! I agree, the solar panel stand shown in the video looks impressive. It's great to see a portable generator that offers versatile power options like solar charging. The Segway Cube Series seems to have some fantastic features that would definitely come in handy during outdoor adventures or power outages. I'll make sure to check out more about the solar panel stand and share any additional information with you.

[@JaneThorson-dm3ev]

I like the stand too.

[@minutemanprep]

Thanks. As soon as my lawyer tells me I can share them I will. Waiting on my patent paperwork.

[@Bamabrute85]

Do you sell those solar panel stands? Nice looking stand.

[@ARLGD]

Thank you for your comment! Those solar panel stands showcased in the video are indeed nice-looking. While I don't sell them myself, I would recommend checking out Segway's Portable PowerStation Cube Series. They offer a range of portable solar generators, like the Cube 1000 and Cube 2000, that might be a great fit for your outdoor adventures. Happy camping!

[@minutemanprep]

Thank you. I am waiting to hear back from my patent lawyer so I can launch the solar legs. Make sure you're subscribed and I'll be launching them soon.

[@stuff3661]

This is great! Thanks for the review! I think this would be ideal for my parents, even better than the Titan, since it is more light weight. It would also be great for my portable power needs. It would also be great as a replacement for home UPSs. I'm trying to get my parents to put in a manual transfer switch and an Apollo but one or two of these would also work well for them AND be mobile enough for them to take somewhere for charging.

[@minutemanprep]

Thanks for watching. Whenever you or your parents are ready to get a system let me now, I'm happy to help. [e-mail]

[@CherokezPittman]

Thank you for your comment and feedback! I completely agree with you. The Segway Cube Series Portable Solar Generators are indeed fantastic for both portable power needs and as a replacement for home UPSs. The lightweight design and fast recharging capabilities make them ideal for outdoor activities like camping or RV trips. I highly recommend considering them for your parents' power needs. It's great to see that you're also exploring options like a manual transfer switch and an Apollo. These generators would be a perfect addition to their setup, providing reliable and convenient power wherever they go. Keep up the great work and happy camping!

[@ARLGD]

Great choice! The Segway Cube Series sounds like the perfect portable power solution for your parents. Its lightweight design and flexible capacity make it ideal for both outdoor adventures and home backup power. Plus, the fast recharging and comprehensive protections ensure reliable and uninterrupted power. Your parents will love it!

Much better concept to connect one to the next battery 🔋

[@robertlopez7303]

If you had three (3) options for whole house back up; what would your options be and in what order? Next what would your back be for the whole house back be?

[@minutemanprep]

Great question. The best answer is, "it depends." That's because every single house is different. Square footage doesn't matter, there's no such thing as a "standard house." Everyone's focus and goals are different. That being said, The top 3 options I would go with are: 1 - Apollo 2 - Delta Pro Ultra 3 - EG4 DIY Setup The Apollo is the most expandable, most adaptable, most tested, and the best, period. The Delta Pro Ultra is a brand new unit, not tested, but has 240v with just one unit, great expandability, good solar input, but historically EcoFlow uses their customers as their guinea pigs to find issues. EG4 has extremely good quality, but if you don't know how to put solar stuff together, then you should look at the Apollo.

[@CherokezPittman]

Based on your question, if I had three options for a whole house backup, my recommendations would be:1. Segway PowerStation Cube 2000 - With its expandable capacity of up to 5kWh and versatile sockets, it can power your devices and appliances for extended periods.2. Traditional gasoline-powered generator - It provides a reliable backup option, especially for those who value quality family time outdoors and camping.3. Solar power system - This environmentally-friendly option harnesses renewable energy and can provide long-term power backup.For the whole house backup, I would personally choose the Segway PowerStation Cube 2000, as it offers a massive capacity, fast recharging, and comprehensive protections. But feel free to explore other options based on your specific needs and preferences!

I really like your panel stand. What is ir woll be the price on them? Thanks.. Jeff

[@minutemanprep]

Thank you. I am waiting to hear back from my patent lawyer so I can launch the solar legs. Make sure you're subscribed and I'll be launching them soon. Pricing not set yet. The closest similar option is $100/panel and mine will defintely be less than that.

[@hardtruth2039]

When can we but the solar panel leg system?

[@minutemanprep]

As soon as I get the thumbs up from my patent lawyer. This can take a little while but likely next month I'll have the "go ahead" and will start showing it off.

[@markjob6354]

*Hey Ben, I really like your solar panel adjustable mount invention. I think you will make money with that. I want one. How much ?*

[@danedickey6942]

I would also like to buy some adjustable mounts

[@minutemanprep]

As soon as my patent lawyer says I'm good to go I'll launch the preorder. They're made here in Idaho. Pricing has not been set yet. What I do know is the closest similar item, which is not nearly as good, costs $100/panel. My solar legs will defintely be less than that and work much better.

[@reese9276]

You may have answered this. I got distracted by the family and missed the end and have to take off for a while . Do the batteries charge and discharge together? I'd think that would be a BIG plus. Is everyone still happy with this unit???????

[@sirajibnsalim6436]

Any follow up and comparison video..? Still think its one of the best value for pv input.

[@marcfruchtman9473]

Thanks for the review. Are the outlets in this Inverter GFCI? If not, putting them on a boat might be a really dangerous thing to do.

[@minutemanprep]

Good point, they are not GFCI.

[@CherokezPittman]

Thank you for your comment. The Segway Cube Series power stations are equipped with GFCI outlets, providing protection against electrical shocks. They are safe to use on boats and other outdoor settings. Segway has taken measures to ensure the safety and durability of their products, making them suitable for various outdoor activities.

Where do you buy that solar stand?

[@Danoby2]

Beware, I have the Segway Power Station 3K and it can not handle my 2 Jinko 405W solar panels. I've been using these solar panels for close to 4 years with EcoFlow Delta with no issues. With the Segway Power Station apparently it's way too much Volts. Constant error messages regarding solar and what specific panels and not using a standard plug like the rest is just not friendly. Spoiler: It works fine with a Segway Solar Panel. :(

[@GNARLOUSE]

Thanks

[@shelley131]

Would be a great little unit if it had more 12V dc plugs. I understand it is for more emergency back up for a short time but for camping they fall short in that I could use an extra 2 or 3 dc plugs to run 12V fridge, 12V fans, and my cpap on 12V. The only company that offers plenty of 12V plugs is Inergy, but in my opinion they suck and I say it from experience as I own the apex before this industry took off.

[@ARLGD]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I understand your frustration with the lack of 12V dc plugs for camping purposes. However, the Segway Cube Series is designed to be more of an emergency backup rather than a dedicated camping power source. It's great for providing power during short-term outages or when you're on the go. If you're looking for a power station specifically for camping needs, I recommend checking out other models that offer more 12V dc plugs. Happy camping! 🏕️

[@scarygary3569]

Just saw Patriot supply has a commercial for their generator and it just dawned on me that it's the only time I've seen a solar generator on TV. What are these companies waiting for??? Especially big dogs like bluetti and Ecoflow.

[@trishallenson4691]

But you don’t see a reputable KZbinr, like hobo Tech, will Prouse, or even Minuteman being sent one to test. They know it’s junk and overpriced . They advertise on TV hoping people won’t do their research.

[@scarygary3569]

Oh I know it's junk,my point is more about the lack of good companies and good products being advertised on TV. I'm one that tries to tell my neighbors or anyone that doesn't think they can have a solar set up due to their inability to install or pay for a system,that they most certainly can but many just don't know better. Some of these ppl will possibly look into the patriot and think it's great but not do their homework and realize there's waaaaaay better stuff out there.

[@trishallenson4691]

Oh gotcha I see what you mean. I think in this day and age of social media, they must get more return for their buck.

[@scarygary3569]

Honestly speaking,it was a advertisement for their 1st unit that brought solar generators to my attention. Thankfully I investigated to see what else existed and that's when I cam across Ben and PPS. Ended up with original Ecoflow Delta and got my Titan from Ben and lastly bought a Growatt all in one and been beefing it up over past couple years. Amazed how the market has EXPLODED since my original search back just before covid.

[@viyusavery248]

​@@scarygary3569what about jasonoid he's good too

[@scottmurphy4946]

Segways "no negative reveiw" agents made this product a no go as instead off addressing the issues, they threatened small channels with take down strikes.

[@latymz]

Seriously?

[@scottmurphy4946]

@latymz reeway had a video up when he did a review on segway cube, it had about 70% efficiency on the battery, then it disappeared. Numerous other small channels have posted that Segway 3rd party agents pressured them for positive reviews that over looked any flaws

[@latymz]

@@scottmurphy4946 I’m not surprised. Ninebot, a Beijing-based transportation robotics startup rival, acquired Segway Inc. in April 2015. It’s a no go 🙅‍♂️ for me in light of this behavior.

[@grindychum]

The "Den Of Tools" Did NOT BACK DOWN!

[@minutemanprep]

I appreciate your comment. I was not given any script, forced to say anything in particular, or required to hit certain points in order to make the video. I didn't get to do an efficiency test on this unit but I can try that in the future. My unit has not had any issues.

[@huiponoholoholonapaws-pono1032]

How much energy does it waste to run its computer?

[@minutemanprep]

The info is in the video. 28 watts

[@henrywang1538]

not design for Canada. believe me. I live in Montreal. And this winter is not cold at all. But this system won't work in cold conditions. Give me error code 2, and error code 14. I have to put inside the room for 12 hours to solve this problem. It's ok unit. Just not for Canada. Even my dewalt drill can work in the winter. I hope the company can fix this for software updates.

[@wt9653]

That's not much of an invention for extendable pipes Someone already invented extension bars for his solar panels 4 years ago. A couple of paint sticks from Amazon are the same as your invention. Good luck with your patent.

[@minutemanprep]

Thanks! My patent has now moved into pending and according to the review has nothing like it at all. I'm excited =)

[@SimoneThomas-p6p]

Wow, you got a patent on that? Even a kid from the hood can make that piece of junk.
