“I'm not just an investor in Base, I'm also a member. Since switching to Base, I'm saving over 20% on my power bill at my home in Houston.”
Base is building a different kind of power company — one that combines affordable energy with reliable home backup.
39.2 kWh in every Base Core, making it one of the largest home batteries available.
Approx. 36-72 hours (1-2 batteries) of backup duration. Extend duration with built-in generator recharge port or connected solar (not required).
Tested for -22 to 122°F, flash flooding, and submersion-rated to 3 feet.
Automatic, whole-home backup without the five-figure cost of a generator or solar.
Base helps the grid when demand is high. When the power goes out, Base helps keep homes running.


The grid needs extra power at certain times of day. Base helps fill the gap, which helps keep electricity more affordable and reliable.

I've spent my career believing that when people count on you, you show up.
That's true on the field, and it's true at home.
Your power should be there when you need it. It should be simple, reliable, and affordable. That's what stood out to me about Base.
Home backup shouldn't be something only a few homeowners can afford. It should be something every homeowner can have.
When I saw what Base was building, I kept coming back to the same thought, “It's so simple. Why wouldn't anyone get Base?”
That's why I invested, and why I'm a Base member.
