Do you wish you could increase the amount of solar power your RV collects throughout the day? Well, on today’s podcast, we have Tom Gacka, co-founder and CEO handling product development, and Masoud Vaezi, co-founder leading controls, software, and electrical engineering and together they make up, Roboteos. This is a robotics tech company manufacturing high-efficiency, single and two-axis solar tracking systems to dramatically increase energy capture for off-grid RVs and camper vans. Their patent pending multi-axis solar panel system has a non-moving footprint that uses GPS to track the sun for optimal power generation. Here how Tom and Masoud went from working together to teaming up and starting their own business, to quitting their full-time jobs and putting 100% of their efforts into Roboteos. 

“Roboteos is made up basically two different words, robot plus Eos. EOS is the Greek goddess of the dawn who was charged with bringing the dawn to the Greek world every morning. At our core, Roboteos is a tech robotic company. We plan to identify and find the problems that have been ignored and use state of the art tactics to attack those problems and solve them.” – Masoud Vaezi Co-Founder of Roboteos

Looking for a way to cook in or out of your RV without the need of propane, charcoal or even the need to be plugged in? Today we are talking with the owner and founder of Newr, Chad Mollman and their revolutionary cook top named “Chef”.  This idea of this new portable, battery-operated cooktop came to Chad one day while cooking in his kitchen at home while looking out his back window at his grill. He thought to himself why do I have two of the same thing at my home, why can’t I have one cooktop that I can use anywhere?

As he developed Chef, he realized that its small size and power lithium battery would be great for campers, overlanders and RVers as well. The Newr Chef is small enough to fit in a backpack, but powerful enough to cook full meals. The built in battery pack makes it an all-in-one device, making set up very easy, it also has multiple charging solutions, including plugging in a solar panel and you can use Chef even while charging. 

With Chad’s help we will also uncover the behind-the-scenes process from concept to production, the commitment to local manufacturing in Indianapolis, and the company’s vision for the future of portable cooking.

To learn more about Chef visit their website here, they also have a YouTube channel where you can see demos of the Chef in action.
