Welcome to SurgeonTech—home of a private Arizona power plant running real house loads.

I test solar, home batteries, whole-house backup power, microgrids, inverters, portable power stations, electronics, and new technology under real operating conditions. My testing ranges from small bench-top products to a 143kWh EG4 battery system, 1000A busbars, extreme Arizona heat, heavy A/C loads, and zero-grid power tests.

My background includes I.T., electronics, electrical work, and extreme—but safety-focused—DIY. Outside this channel, I am a surgeon.

Manufacturers and developers: I welcome products of any size for independent testing and review. I can test small electronics or extremely large power equipment using multiple real-world setups. I do not require a review fee or affiliate commission.

Real equipment. Real loads. Real-time proof.

🚨 From the smallest gadgets to EXTREME DIY—SurgeonTech is just getting started!

Over the next month, get ready for more hands-on testing, more product reviews, and more step-by-step projects that show you HOW I use these devices.

Solar, batteries, backup power, tools, and home technology—we’re expanding what we put to the test so YOU can see what’s worth buying and what you can build yourself.

And here’s a change I think you’ll LOVE: honest reviews with NO commissions and NO review fees. (IMAGINE THAT) There’s no money behind getting you to buy. The products will have to earn your attention through their results.

You’ll see what works, what falls short, and whether the performance lives up to the promises.

Small upgrades. BIG builds. Real results.

Stick around—and bring someone who loves this stuff. We’re building something exciting here! ⚡ #solar #offgrid #tech

These 3 pictures tell you exactly what I am doing right this moment. (Too bad for that Ford Mustang driver, they will charge him with Stupid Driver Law in AZ). That actually exists here. ‪@AnkerSOLIX‬​ #anker #ankersolix #batterybackup #portablepowerstation

I have never looked at the sky more than after getting solar! 😀☀️. Guys, I got a few awesome ideas for videos. One is so cool that nobody has done it thus far in the solar world. It will take some time to film a quality version. I did pick up more work with seeing 60 more patients per week starting last week, so time will be tight, but I will do my best. 👊👍⚡️🔋

I think it's pretty funny for us to say "Our homes run on batteries". (But it's true). Never thought this would be possible in my life time. ‪@eg4electronics‬ #eg4 #solar

Let me know below if you expected this to be a reality in your life time.

18kpv keeps going in and out still. Just got an error overvoltage on AC side of the 18kpv in the gridboss after it ran amazing for 5 hours. Should I just get a 3rd Flexboss21 and call it a day? Or switch this 18kpv into AC coupled smart port, but that will only help me with battery charging and I lose 50amps of capable output. Another option is to throw the 18kpv into the shop and have that runnning things there. I think that both flexboss21 and 18kpv are compatible in the gridboss, but not very smooth on all levels with each other. ‪@eg4electronics‬ #eg4

New video coming out today! Maybe 2? 🫨😁 👍
Youtube says it's processing for 58 min, not sure why so long.

Nice view at night. Hoping I find some time this weekend for wire management and cleaning up that gutter. If i find time to do the bus bars this weekend, that will make me much happier. Problem is my OCD. I won't close those gutters until I transfer the bus bars. The way I want to install the bus bars will take me a few hours easy. OCD sucks in real life, but in surgery it's great for patients 👍🙂 ‪@eg4electronics‬ ‪@LearnEG4‬ #eg4

Today is a regular day. Saw 1 ER patient at 7AM, then 30 patients in my clinic, then back to the hospital for 4 more patients, and 12 procedures done. Scheduled 3 cases for tomorrow after hours. 7PM and time to do the notes on these patients. Still on call. But what I am getting to, is doing these notes is a lot more fun with new solar & tech videos in the background and complete silence from my Ankers in the shop with a 3 ton minisplit on blast. 😀 ☀️🔋 #Anker #Solar #Offgrid ‪@AnkerSOLIX‬​ ‪@AnkerCharging‬​‪@GavinStoneDIY‬ ‪@AVERAGE_JOE‬
