Power-Miser Off The Grid

Off The Grid

When the lights go out
Will you still be able to Compute?

Want the low power consumption of a notebook computer but need the power and reliability of a REAL computer? If so Power-Miser is the computer for you.

Power-Miser Runs on Either 12 or 120-Volts.
Our Power-Miser computer system comes with a 12-Volt to 120-Volt inverter, so you can run this full-size computer, monitor, printer and even a scanner on regular house power or from a 12-Volt car battery. This is truly the best computer for the unpredictable times ahead of us.

Unlike those wimpy little notebook computers that are delicate, prone to breaking and have small hard to use keyboards and displays, Power-Miser is a full-size computer with full-size computing power but uses much less electrical power than other full-size desk-top machines.

The most for the least!
We are the only manufacture producing a truly low power consumption computer with all the features of our best full-size machines. With Virtual-Video our 15 inch flat panel display gives you a virtual 30 inch work area.

Lifetime Support
The Power-Miser comes with our lifetime support. As long as you own one of our computers you can always call on us for answers to any computer question you may ever have.

Dual Drives End Hard Drive Crashes
Even the best hard drives will eventually fail. Viruses, misbehaving programs, user misadventure, or mechanical failure will eventually take it’s toll, and cause loss of programs and data.

The Power-Miser computer is equipped with dual removable hard disk drive modules and our special backup software. With our Dual-Drive system, hard drive or data problems can be corrected in less than 30 seconds.

Perfect for Home-Schooling
Extra hard drive modules are available for other members of your family, or a separate game drive can be had to effectively give you two, or more, computers for the price of one.

Big screen computing
The Power-Miser computer includes our unique Virtual-Video system. Virtual-Video makes the monitor appear four times larger. When working in Windows it seems you never have enough screen space. Open two or three programs and they are all hiding behind each other, or are too small to use. Our Virtual-Video allows you to have up to four programs open full size and not overlapping or hiding behind another. This is the finest video system ever produced!

World class Internet surfing!
Our Power-Miser computer is equipped with the fastest modem available, and the best Internet software, so you can surf the Internet like a pro.
