The Power Problem

Critical operations can't afford downtime, yet traditional computing fails when it matters most

⚡

Grid Dependency

Remote operations, disaster zones, and developing regions lack reliable power infrastructure. Traditional laptops become paperweights without outlets.

🔋

Battery Limitations

Standard laptop batteries last 4-12 hours under optimal conditions. Extended missions require dozens of backup batteries—impractical and expensive.

❄️

Environmental Failure

Extreme temperatures, moisture, and dust destroy consumer electronics. Military, emergency response, and field research demand rugged reliability.

⚠️

The Cost of Downtime

When laptops fail in the field, missions abort, lives are at risk, and millions of dollars are wasted. The U.S. military alone spends over $2.3 billion annually on field computing equipment that fails to meet operational demands.

Meet DieselTops

The world's first diesel-powered laptop engineered for unstoppable performance in any environment
