A kitchen table discussion, during Victoria's 2020 Covid-19 lockdown, resulted in the design and construction of the first Frankenstein-like "Power-Droid" by former film and television stuntman, Purven Pather, aided by his business partner and wife, Jessica Gower.

The arrival of the Power-Droid was followed by the creation of the company, Equoria, which is about "Powering your production with portable, renewable power sources".

The Power-Droid, a mobile box of just over 80 kilograms, looking smart in its new finery and remote from its Frankenstein-like elder, was on show at the recent "Australian Cleantech Showcase 2025."
