Backup battery that saves money by storing power when it’s cheap. Access emergency power when needed
blip energy is proud to say our products are made in the USA.
blipOne is a backup power station for every home. It’s designed to help in emergencies and save money.
It intelligently charges up when energy is cheapest. In the event of an outage, the 2.2kWh battery saves the day, powering a fridge for 1-2 days, or keeping the WiFi up for weeks.
This is the first home battery truly designed for portable apartment use and living. With no permanent installation you can take it wherever you live, and it can easily be used throughout your home.
After a quick account setup, plug blipOne into any standard outlet to immediately begin storing energy. It’s that simple: no landlords or electricians necessary. Set it and forget it.
Using advanced algorithms and the free app, blipOne connects to your utility rate system. It reviews your rate plan and takes advantage of electricity prices that change throughout the day.
By storing energy overnight or when the price is low, and using it to power your devices during the day when the price is highest, blip saves you money without having to turn anything off.
This can save you money when energy is expensive. Don’t pay for high cost electricity when you could be using cheap, stored power.
Don’t be caught unprepared when blackouts or emergencies happen. Power your priority devices, some for days on end.
* Listed hours are an approximation from standard device energy ratings and based on continuous use. Exact runtime for your devices will depend on the efficiency of your device.
Keep yourself, your home, and your family safe with easily accessible backup power during rolling blackouts or severe weather.
blipOne is even compatible with solar. So, if your power’s out for days, you won’t need to worry. Our team can recommend top panels and necessary equipment to turn your blipOne battery into a solar-powered device.
blip energy has worked tirelessly to ensure blipOne exceeds all safety and environmental standards. It’s undergone 40 reliability and safety tests and meets all required certifications.
AC equivalent pure sine wave provides safe, quality AC power to protect your devices and electronics. We’ve built multiple layers of safety into the power electronics of blipOne, to go above and beyond industry safety protocols.
Keep an eye on your energy usage and savings while controlling blipOne, all through the app.
Check out the blip algorithm yourself–head here and calculate the potential and projected savings you could experience. This calculator uses the same technology as the blipOne app.
By storing power, and using it during peak hours, you’ll reduce your reliance on dirty energy from peaker plants, the source of most daytime power and stressors on our environment.
Using blipOne will help reduce your carbon footprint without disrupting your daily routine. Each blipOne unit can eliminate 100kg of CO2 emissions per year on average. If we each help a little, together we can accomplish a lot.
At blip energy, we believe everyone deserves access to energy storage. Energy storage is a powerful tool for controlling your energy usage and building outage resilience for your home – and it should be widely available, not a luxury.
We’ve been working on blip energy since January 2020, and in that time have won the Clean Energy prize from ASUio, filed patents and mapped out a path to certification and scale manufacturing for our first product blipOne. We’ve built our functional proof of concept, and are now working to lock down the final bill of materials, send out for product certification testing, and manufacture our first run of product.
The team has technical and business backgrounds in hardware development and energy. Our CEO Sophia was a Mechanical Engineer at iRobot building Roomba before receiving her MBA and MSDI from Northwestern. Chance our COO has a background in Federal Policy at GE, and has worked in real estate, energy consulting, and more. Our cofounders and advisors Dennis and Thibaut both have experience in energy consulting at Bain and BCG respectively, and Thibaut holds a masters in Electrical Engineering.
