Going off the grid
What started as an idea has grown into a movement, a way of thinking. The idea that people want to get off the grid and get back to nature or a more minimal state without the complexities of modern technology is not new. But now we are at an era where we are defining what will be important for the future.
We aim to be your trusted advisor both off and on grid. offthegridit has been an advocate of open source hardware and software to educate and innovate. While being a great way to inspire, open source also opens the doors to the democratization of new technologies and the power to level the playing field for smaller innovators.
While we do constantly adapt and stay current with the latest technology, the principles we employ are focused on helping people and saving the planet. We advocate and practice the principles of reduce, reuse, and recycle.

offthegridit Timeline
It was an idea. People want to go off the grid. But they still need modern tools, and a way to communicate with the grid.
We worked with hardware and software developers to better understand the technologies that are coming. Supporting a mixture of Mac, Windows, and Linux in enterprise environments at mass scale was a way to expand our vision.
After 10 years, many of the technologies we support (that have been in development) are coming to fruition. It feels like we are entering a historic period where the technologies are being defined right now that will be so important for society going forward.
