Welcome in, everybody. National Preparedness Month. Can you imagine? Day seven already, guys. That's hard to believe. Came quick. I think it'll come and go quickly, to be quite honest with you. Today we have a special guest. Been working with Bryce for some time now, and I think you guys are going to love his company, particularly those of you in the off-grid parlance, right? This is small and effective technology that well does all kinds of stuff so we're gonna have him on today in just a moment before we get rolling i want everybody to remember that these shows are on daily okay these shows are on daily every day throughout the month of september we're going to be on here bringing you some new guests and uh their product their service their style their personality whatever it is and how it how it relates to preparedness here in america through national preparedness month so Without further ado, let's get our man Bryce Harper on with off-grid power tech. How you doing, sir? Can you hear me? I can hear you just fine. Good morning. Thanks so much for joining us. I'm powering up the internet on the back end here just in case. Excellent. Yeah, thanks for having me on. I'm excited. Yeah, no problem. You know, one thing I don't know is... How long have you guys been doing what you've been doing? I met you at the at sort of the height of the Oasis, but I never really asked you, like, when did you get started and all that? Yeah, I mean, so when we first contacted, that was about almost three years into the whole thing, starting with the Oasis. Some of you may have seen it. It was the water distiller desalinator that took the waste heat involved with that and generated power from that as well. I have a video on here still. I'll look. You keep talking. I'll see if I have a video of it still in our stream yard. So that one took about three years to develop fully. The technology, the way it works together, then developing that into a portable, user-friendly device. So now it's coming on four and a half years, just about. Something of that nature in that ballpark. And now we're introducing our second product, the HeatForce Pro. which similar to the Oasis uses that thermal electric heat harvesting technology, um, to heat a space, pushes hot air around the room, charges your devices, USB, power phone, charging, battery banks, GPS, radios, led lights. Um, and then you also have a little stove top to cook on. That's where the heat comes from. So you can cook, charge your stuff and. Heat your room. On the side, there's a fan. I saw a fan in the, uh, in the video is that inside the unit. That is inside so what it does is it heats up those and all of y'all will see in a second um it heats up the heat exchanger towers so basically heats up all these metal fins and then that fan self-actuates self-activates and pushes air through those fins so it takes the cold air pushes it through heats it up in those fins and then pushes out the hot air and pushes that around the. Room so so when you're talking hot air is that something obviously not like a heat pump heat, but will there be hot air coming out of that thing or warm air, something like that? Exactly. Yes, exactly. That's the idea. Think of it kind of like a, uh, like a wood stove fan a little bit, but a lot more advanced and a lot more, uh, efficient in pushing that heat around. It sucks the heat up and you'll see it uses, um, either canned heat. So like Sterno or something like that. Um, Or a little alcohol burner of your own that you have that's compatible with either. And basically, the Heat Force Pro sucks that heat up from those heat sources, distributes it to the air, pushes it out with that fan, and then you also get the added ability of USB charging. It comes with a little USB port up to 3 watts. Just about its average output is 3 to 4 watts. Is that the same as the Oasis? On output? No, Oasis is a little higher depending on how you're using it, but this is consistent. So as long as you're heating your room, you get that charging power at the same time. Okay. Yeah. And you know, don't underestimate that amount of wattage folks for your ability to power lights and to light up a dark room because you know, light, you know, makes a huge difference. So with that thing, could you use that thing in like the, you know what, let's, let's look at the video. And, uh, we'll show everybody kind of what the hardware looks like. And then I'll give you some questions after that. We'll talk about the Kickstarter and those kinds of things. That's good to me. The most sense. So let's get a look at the heat force pro in action. You want to tell us who these fellas are? Maybe that would be an important thing and where they're at in this video. So we got the help of some, uh, outfitters and outdoorsmen out in Wyoming. Um, some of them ran their own outfitting, uh, outfits out in Wyoming. Some of them are just avid outdoorsman hunters and such. Um, and they so graciously volunteered to be part of this video and give a little Testament of what they think of the heat force pro they used it for that day. Um, and we got some shots of them using it, cooking on it and that kind of nature. Um, and they seem to have liked it a lot. So, you know, they, uh, They're out there in Wyoming. They're out there either in the summer or in the winter. Mostly, a lot of the times in the winter, they're going out, packing. Out 50 miles and staying out there for a couple weeks. And they love the product. So we'll see what y'all think. Let's take a look. When you're off the grid or working in real winter conditions, the basics matter more than anything. Heat Force Pro. was designed around a simple idea. One product doing more than one job. Heat Force Pro turns a single heat source into three essentials. Providing warmth, a place to cook, and generating USB power through high temperature thermoelectric technology you can use for charging or powering a light source. It gets the job done cooking. Charging, heating, everything from A to B. I mean, it's a good-using product for the outdoorsman, for sure. All right, folks, the Heat Force Pro. I just realized I blocked the link with your logo. Logo's got to go to the top, not the bottom there. But for the folks watching on Rumble, the link to the heat force pro is down in the show description. Well, to the Kickstarter, we'll talk about that in a minute. And the same link is in the Instagram live stream. OK, so you see the fan, you see the cooking capability, you see the heat source at the bottom, the charging capability. Can you put that thing in a say you started a small fire like under the grate of a fireplace? Could you put that in the fireplace and operate it in there? Absolutely, you can. A big part of it, too, is I mentioned the wood stove fans earlier. You can stick this on top of the wood stove and not only push that hot air around the room just like a wood stove fan, but you also get that added charging ability from it. Oh, you just drop it right on top. Exactly. Oh, that's cool. Yeah, that's really cool. Easy. Easy and cool for sure. Yeah, I was thinking about that from the fireplace perspective, maybe even push some of that heat from the fireplace around the room. Exactly. Build a fire strategically, you probably could handle it. Is there anything that could be compromised from too much heat in that thing? Yeah, you want to moderate how much heat. That's why, you know, we designed it with the four sterno cans. That kind of outputs the perfect amount of heat for it to function properly. If you do use it on a wood stove, you just got to make sure it doesn't peak above 200 degrees of the surface temperature of that stove. That's what you want, okay. Exactly. So, you know, just being responsible with it. But if you are and you're just safe and using it the way it's supposed to be used, it'll work great. And when you're using the Heat Force Pro for cooking, you're putting some kind of pan or griddle right on top of everything? That's right. So in the video there, you saw they used a big old square cast iron pan they cooked up. Was that about eight pieces of bacon at the same time with those four sterno cans? So it puts out a surprising amount of heat. It does a pretty good job with the cooking ability. So that the design must be robust enough that it can stand some weight on top of the unit. Are there any strong limitations on that? On top of the stovetop? Not really. It is just solid aluminum construction. Okay. And yeah, no plastic parts, nothing like that. It's all it's all metal. Um, yeah, it's pretty, pretty dang strong, especially since, uh, it's just that cylinder disc shape basically. Yeah. So whatever you're cooking, you know, it's not going to. Be too heavy for it. It's not going to compromise it at all. It's going to, it'll be just fine. I like that. I like that. It's a block of metal essentially. You know what I mean? That's all it is. Yeah. Which really lends it to that sort of austere off grid kind of stick, you know, storage wise, you probably don't have to go too crazy as far as protective storing. I guess you might be a little worried about the USB connections and things like that. Yeah. Well, it'll be, it'll, when, when they do ship out, um, it'll come with a little carrying case. So a little kind of, you know, those canvas kind of deals, um, or nylon, you know? Yeah. But, um, Yeah, when it's all. Packed away inside of its specific little carrying case, everything is pretty secure and pretty safe. So even with the USB connection, it's not too much of a concern jostling it around and stuff like that. So Bryce, I don't know if I ever mentioned this to you or not, but you were one of the biggest parts of a... You were at least one of three players in a real shift in thinking of mine where I started thinking, thinking about my own kids and the fact that they could potentially, uh, you know, own their own utility systems. You know what I mean? In terms of like house to house ownership, self-reliance of utilities, looking at what you were. Yeah. Because you and a few other companies were doing things that were like in how many more years until people really are like their own electric company, how many more years until heating the house is not a, it doesn't require like an entire electric grid, you know, to do it in a way that's also convenient outside of a wood stove. Right. And I just see you guys as one of the companies that keeps pushing the pace on, on, well, really what it is is self-sufficiency, self-reliance, you know, but, so I appreciate your hard work because it had, it's really got my mind turning about how do we set the next generation up so that they're, off grid in a way that looks like they're on grid almost, you know what I mean? From the convenience and the comfort standpoint. And, uh, this is just another piece of that. I can't wait to see what you guys come up with next. Don't you have another product, the third product too? Yeah, we got some, it's still much more in the drawing board phase, but similar to the heat force pro. What's that? I thought you had one out there already. No, it's just the Oasis in the heat force pro right now, but we are working. It's called the power disc. Um, And similar to the heat force probe, instead of heating up air, it heats up water. So it's a water heater. And then it generates 40 to 50 watts of electricity at the same time. And that one's a lot more versatile. That one, you can stick on hot coals of fire, campfire, directly on the campfire, wood stove, sternal cans, you know, pretty much a very, very robust selection of heat sources there. And a lot higher power output too. So that'll be coming. That's sweet, man. So what we have now, folks, is a Kickstarter that is launching when? That is launching October 1st is the projected launch date. So just under a month. Dude, that is perfect. It's literally the grand finale for National Preparedness Month. There you go. That was all quick. That's just lined up pretty perfectly. That lined up perfect. Yeah. So you guys can put all this sort of preparedness knowledge in your head. Hopefully you use our first interview of the month, Be Prepared Solutions, and take advantage of their plan builder. Build out your emergency plan and then see is off-grid heat something you're interested in. I'll give you a hint. Off-grid heat is something you're interested in. Off-grid power, all that kind of stuff. So off-grid cooking. So the heat force pro might become a big piece of that puzzle for you. And you have until October, well, October 1st is when it begins. When do they last? Roughly two weeks, something like that a month. I don't know how long kickstarters go. It'll be about 30 days. So it'll be another month. So this is the prelaunch campaign. So if you sign up for this, um, you'll be notified on launch and you'll get that early bird price as well. Access to that. Oh, it's a great price too, man. I don't want to, I don't want to name names, but there's a, and we could talk about it after. If you don't know, you should know cause they're a competitor, but, um, There's a company out there that is charging an exorbitant amount of money. I don't know if it's the same tech, similar, whatever. I'm sure something in there is pretty similar. But the price that you're putting out is an amazing deal. It's an amazing deal. Don't say it on air. I know. I'm not going to. It would give me a heartache for no reason. But is it the rocket stove deal? No. No? No. Know you may not know them because they're a small creator you know what i mean um you would know if you knew them because they got a funny name on top of it but anyhow. I think i don't know exactly who you're talking. About avoiding controversy on the live show only because i you know i don't care that much but um the price point was just so different in my head when i saw what you guys were charging at the early bird price that i was like okay something's going on um so Long story short, folks, Kickstarter link over there at Instagram. If you're watching this post live on Instagram, then look in the notes down there at the description. We'll also be running some reels for the Heat Force Pro throughout the month with the links. Whenever you post them, just let me know. I'll share them. And also in the show description down there, whether you're watching on YouTube or Rumble or whatever, post live. You'll get that link to the Kickstarter. You've all you got to do is press a button, sign up and you'll get that early bird price, which is a hell of a deal for what this thing does. And, uh, it's, uh, tell us the price. Cause I, I want, I think I'm 95% sure I know, but I don't want to say it out loud cause I'm not 100% sure. So you'll get the, uh, the heater head. So, you know, right here actually. So the heater head, and this is the thing that goes on top of the cook stove or the wood stove. Um, You know, you could even do hot coals if you'd like to. You just got to watch it. It comes with that and the cook stove that holds the three or the four sternal cans. Oh, cool. Along with the, you know, your own alcohol burner that you already have probably in your bug out bag or your camping set. And the case, right? And the carrying case, yeah. $ 179 is the early bird price. It's a good price, man. I appreciate that. A lot of thought went into it. It's a good price, especially nowadays. Yeah, yeah. I mean, a lot of the stuff with this thermoelectric technology is just crazy expensive for some reason. I think people just like to mark it up. Yeah, it's a little snake oily, if you ask me, from what I've seen. A little bit. That's what it seems like. It's a shame, because it seems like it gives people a bad taste in their mouth about the stuff. But it is really cool technology, I think. Yeah. I don't want to get into the negativity because you've got a great product here, and I want people to go check it out. I definitely want them to use the links in the shows, in the Instagram Live. Go sign up for the Kickstarter. Hunter SF, real quick, you're getting the abridged version because we love you so much over there at Instagram. Yes, it's a, what is it you say, three watt on the heat power generation? That's right, three to four watts. So it'll charge a phone, GPS, headlamp. Radio all that deal run lights you know for your tent or your cabin. You know hunters stay tuned at the end you'll see the ad at the end the video at the end will show you what this thing's capable of but it cooks heats charges. What am i missing it's about it right there. That's it okay perfect the three-pronged off-grid attack man that's right okay So before we go our separate ways, did we miss anything? Anything else you want to tell us about the Heat Force Pro or what you guys do over at your site? Yeah, I mean, we're all about just making off-grid and basically the whole idea is making people not reliant on a centralized grid, basically. Making people more sovereign in themselves, more sovereign in their own families and their own homes and being able to live with modern type conveniences without having to subscribe to, you know, that centralized grid, basically. That's kind of our mission statement. That's kind of our goal with all of our products that we make. So hopefully you'll find some kind of value in this stuff because we're going to start coming out with a lot more products. I can't wait to see it, man. You guys always come out with cool stuff. Thanks, man. Yeah, so you may have known him from the Oasis here on PBN, the videos we released here on Instagram probably a year ago now. They're back again with the Heat Force Pro, and we're going to end the show here, and you guys will get a 60-second peek at how this thing works in real time with real, I mean, I guess they're cowboys. They sure as hell look the part, using it out there in the snowy frontier or the Rockies. I don't know. Where did you say they were from? That was a Wyoming right there. Yeah, there you go. There you go. So the proof is in the pudding on this one, folks. Bryce, it's always a pleasure, man. Thanks for everything that you do because it's, uh, I wouldn't know where to start. I'd have a hot glue gun and aluminum foil. I don't know where to begin with stuff like this. So it's a good thing. Yeah. Well, you got the time and the brains to knock it out. I'm just here to tell everybody about it. And I think we play well together. So I agree. I appreciate you, bud. Why don't you give us the home website in case people want to check out the Oasis, too? I will. Absolutely. Thanks for having me on. I appreciate this. This was fun. No problem. But what is the home website? I don't want to get it wrong. Your business's home website. It's going to be offgridpowertechnologies.com. But I believe if you just type in offgridpowertech, it should pop up there. That's usually how I do it. That's why I don't know the website off the top of my head exactly. All right, then. Appreciate it, Bryce. We'll talk soon, man. I hope a bunch of people sign up. Yes, sir. I hope so, too. All right, folks. Episode 7 in the books. Episode 8 tomorrow, 9 a.m. Eastern. I'm 99% sure, so look for us tomorrow. Every day, 9 a.m. or 9 p.m. If we're not here at 9 a.m., we'll be live with our guests at 9 p.m. All month, every day of the month. National Preparedness Month. No excuses. Get yourself prepared. Sorry, I was staring at the wrong camera. My camera's not working. All right, man. I'll talk to you guys soon. Thanks for everything. See ya.
