SimpliPhi was founded in 2002 as LibertyPak, a company focused on providing off-grid power for movie and television productions. More than 15 years later, we continue to provide reliable, non-toxic power to the entertainment industry.

Our LibertyPaks and LibertyBelts have been widely used on movies and television shows, such as 30 Rock, Mad Men and more recently Inside Amy Schumer. James Cameron’s Cameron-Pace production company used LibertyPaks on both Avatar and Tron Legacy. In fact, the lights built into the Tron Legacy suits are powered by LibertyPak. Director of Photography Roger Deakins, famous for his cinematography in James Bond’s Skyfall, True Grit, No Country for Old Men, Jarhead and others, uses SimpliPhi batteries on all of his films.

What energy storage solutions does SimpliPhi offer the film and broadcast industry today?

SimpliPhi has a range of solutions that can be used to provide off-grid power at remote locations, from portable solar+storage Little Genny and Big Genny mobile generator kits to all-in-one PowerBank battery-powered AC generators that deliver 5,200 Watt hours of electricity on a single charge. We’re also able to provide backup power on location or in the studio to ensure that in the event of an emergency, rolling brownout or other grid disruption, you will never lose power and your valuable technology and assets will remain protected.

Can the LibertyPak products be customized to meet our production crew's particular power requirements?

Yes. SimpliPhi offers customized LibertyPak and Genny mobile and wearable power solutions for film and television productions.
