Iran Said No Again, and the Pentagon Is Getting Ready

We’ve been at war with Iran for seven months.

The fighting has slowed...

...but now Iran’s security chief calls America’s latest peace offer “insufficient.”

And Iran won’t budge on its demands.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon told commanders to get ready to fight again.

No date is set yet...

...but families who never pictured war here are watching.

So is every cop I know.

Hackers Tied to Iran Are Already Inside American Water and Energy Systems

The FBI and six other federal agencies have been warning us.

Hackers tied to Iran are breaking into the controls at American water and energy plants.

The goal, they said, is “to cause disruptive effects within the United States.”

This summer it stopped being a warning.

The FBI confirmed attacks on water plants in at least seven states.

A group tied to Iran claimed them.

It said it meant to “warn America to back down.”

Then the head of the FBI went before the Senate.

He put it in writing: Iran, Russia and North Korea are...

“...pre-positioning on U.S. critical infrastructure for use in a future crisis or conflict.”

Kash Patel, FBI Director

In plain words, they’re getting in now so they could switch off our power later.

The Military Is Guarding Its Bases at Home, Not Your Street

Defending our soil is now the Pentagon’s first job.

It picked lasers and microwave weapons to stop drones over five US bases.

And it handed out up to $4 billion in contracts for a “Domestic Shield.”

But that shield guards military sites.

The substation that feeds your lights?

It usually has only a fence and a padlock.

Sign #4

The President Declared a National Emergency Over Our Power Grid

This summer the President signed an emergency order over our power grid.

It says out loud that foreign actors are “exploiting vulnerabilities” in it.

It even warns of “sabotage.”

So if the grid goes, who comes for your family?

FEMA answers that one itself.

“After an emergency, you may need to survive on your own for several days.”

Then it lists what to keep: a flashlight, a battery or hand-crank radio and a “cell phone with chargers and a backup battery.”

In other words, light, news and a working phone.

A family runs out of all three when the grid stays down.

You could see where that ends in last winter’s ice storm across the South.

Police went checking on older people their families couldn’t reach.

And for those who stayed home, they helped charge phones.

The third day of an ice storm: a tree crushed through a carport onto the car beneath, an iced power line hanging into the yard, and a deputy on the frozen steps checking on an old woman at her door

When the Power Stays Off

In 2022, someone shot up two North Carolina substations.

Tens of thousands sat in the dark for days, and nobody was caught.

One rifle did that.

Hackers could do the same, with no fighting on our streets.

So could an EMP from a nuclear bomb set off high in the sky.

I’ve seen what happens when it’s off that long.

The phones die one by one, then the radio’s batteries give out.

The flashlight dims...

...until your family sits in the pitch dark, with no news and a dead phone.

The One Thing Most Families Overlook

Smart families keep flashlights, spare batteries and a power bank charged before a storm.

That covers a night or two.

But here’s what most families overlook.

Once those run down, the outlets are already dead.

So nothing in the house can fill them again.

Some say a charged phone won’t matter, because cell towers go down too.

Sometimes they do, and no battery fixes a tower.

But phone companies truck in generators to bring the towers back.

Often that happens while homes are still dark.

Then only a phone with charge left can get the emergency alerts or reach your family.

What Keeps Your Family Safe When the Grid Fails

None of us can stop a war or guard the grid.

But you can make sure of one thing.

When it goes down, your family has light, news and power of its own.

That’s the job of TerraCell, a battery that refills itself from the sun.

It holds up to five full phone charges, and it has its own built-in LED light.

It even runs a radio by cable.

So nobody in your house sits waiting for the grid to come back.

TerraCell opened like a book on a frosted porch rail on a plain winter morning, its four solar panels facing the sky, a coffee mug beside it

When it runs low, open it like a book outside in direct sun.

Then it puts the charge back.

That’s called Four-Panel Solar Capture™.

Most solar chargers have just one panel to catch the sun, and TerraCell has four.

Every other battery in the house dies for good...

...but this one’s charge keeps coming back.

So your family isn’t left in the dark.

And it costs far less than a generator.

Why Backup Power Fails When a Family Needs It Most

One buyer of a one-panel solar charger wrote:

“I have the single panel version an got to say it let me down big time.”

In beaming sun, its one small panel barely put any charge back.

But one woman got through a five-day ice storm on a TerraCell.

Each sunny morning it sat on her porch rail.

And every night, its LED light, her radio and her phone kept going.

Whatever she used after dark, the next day’s sun put back, so it was ready again every night.

The difference is four panels instead of one.

That gives TerraCell 4x faster sun charging than a one-panel charger like that.

So as long as the sun is in the sky, your family’s power keeps coming back, night after night: the light, the radio and the phones.

And it’s weather-sealed, so it can sit out on a porch rail all day.

Rain, snow, mud, even a dunk in a puddle won’t hurt it.

Charging off a generator or a running car fails too.

Both burn gas, and the stations can’t pump gas without power.

And a generator’s fumes can kill indoors.

TerraCell burns nothing and makes no sound.

So it can sit right beside the bed...

...and your family gets through the night on its own.

So however long the grid stays down, your family is never left helpless in the dark.

What Keeps a Family Ready When the Grid Goes Down

So what would actually keep your family ready?

Something that:

That’s exactly what TerraCell is, and it checks every box:

A man's weathered hands opening a TerraCell like a book on a backyard picnic table on a grey winter day, snow and houses behind

“Won’t It Be Dead When I Need It?”

Most people worry about that with any battery sitting in a drawer.

One person posted this the night the power went out:

“realized it was on 2%.

I never charged it after the last power outage.”

Someone posting the night the power went out

With TerraCell, a low battery isn’t the end of the story.

Set it out on any sunny day, and the sun puts charge back, so it’s ready before the storm.

And if the power’s already out, the next morning’s sun starts bringing it back.

On top of that, it holds up to five full phone charges.

It has its own built-in LED light, and it shrugs off rain, snow and mud.

A generator runs hundreds of dollars, and it serves one house.

TerraCell is something you can hand to everyone you love.

Because when the grid goes down...

...light and power shouldn’t belong only to people who can afford a generator.

What People Remember About Their Nights in the Dark

“33 days without power after hurricane Michael...

It was horrible.”

★★★★★

“Five days without power after the ice storm.

It sat on the porch rail every sunny morning.

Every night, its LED light and our radio kept going.”

Shirley beside her mother on a floral couch under a crocheted blanket, a TerraCell open on the coffee table in front of them
★★★★★

“My mother is 91 and lives alone.

Every storm, I used to lie awake wondering if she was sitting there in the dark.

Now there’s one by her couch.

When the ice storm took her power, she had its little light on and her radio going.

She told me she was fine.

First storm in years I actually slept.”

★★★★★

“My girls each live two hours from me, so each got one and I kept one.

When the storm took our power last winter, all three houses still had the radio on.”

One for Every Person You’d Worry About

A TerraCell in your house keeps your own light, news and power going.

But it can’t do a thing for your mother across town...

...or your daughter two states away.

Four TerraCells laid open on a kitchen table, each over a strip of masking tape labeled Mine, Mom's, Tasha and Glove box

That’s why most families don’t stop at one.

They get one for every person they’d lie awake about.

Think of your parents, above all if one of them lives on their own.

Your kids, wherever they happen to be that night.

And the car, for the night you’re far from home.

Then when the grid goes down, every house you love has its own light, news and power.

And nobody you love sits alone in the dark.

A generator costs far more.

And it does nothing for any house but the one it sits beside.

Even If the War Never Reaches Us

Maybe the talks with Iran end in a deal.

Maybe none of it ever comes near your street...

...and I hope it never does.

If it doesn’t, your TerraCells still earn their keep.

Because ice storms and hurricanes still take the power for days.

And cars still break down on dark roads.

But if it comes, you’ll want them already put away.

The night the lights go out is too late to find out you needed them.

Because by then, the shelves are bare.

And every outlet in the house is dead.

Nobody in your house can stop a foreign government or guard the power grid.

Nobody can say when the next emergency comes.

But when it does, you can decide what your family has.

Light, news and power of its own.

And there’s no risk in it.

Each TerraCell comes with our 120-Day Money-Back Guarantee and a 1-Year Warranty.

You have 120 days to try it with your family.

For any reason at all, every penny comes back to you.

The Only Problem: Stock Can Run Short

More than 10,000 families keep one.

And whenever war or a blackout makes the news, more order at once.

That’s how our last shipment sold out.

So we ordered the biggest restock we’ve ever made, and it all landed at once.

The warehouse charges us for every month it sits there.

We’d rather not pay to store it.

So we cut the price up to 70% off to move it fast.

If the button below still shows, there are units left at this price.

When this restock sells out, the sale price ends.

And the next shipment is weeks out.

Order today, and your family has theirs before the next headline.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it work in winter?

Yes. On any sunny day, set it outside on a porch rail or a step. Its four panels put charge back, with nothing to plug in and nothing to fill. It fills best outside in direct sun. And rain, snow and mud won’t hurt it.

How many phone charges does it hold?

Up to five full phone charges from a full battery, depending on the phone. It has two USB ports and a USB-C port, so three devices charge at once. And fast charging gets a dead phone going again sooner.

Does it have a light?

Yes. TerraCell has its own built-in LED light. The moment the power dies, your family has light in hand. It has three modes: a steady light, a strobe, and an SOS flash to signal for help. And the sun keeps it charged, so it never depends on batteries you forgot to buy.

I already have a generator. Why would I want this too?

A generator is for the fridge and the furnace. It has to run outside, away from the windows, on gas you have to go and get. TerraCell keeps your family’s light, news and phones going right beside them in the house. It needs no fuel and makes no noise. And it folds small enough to go with you.

What if the cell towers are down?

TerraCell keeps your family’s phones charged, so they’re ready the moment service comes back. In the meantime, the radio and the light keep going.

Can it sit out in the rain?

Yes. It’s weather-sealed: rain, snow, mud, even a dunk in a puddle won’t hurt it.

Is it sold on Amazon or in stores?

No. TerraCell is only sold here, not in stores and not on Amazon or eBay.

What’s the guarantee?

You get 120 days to try it with your family. For any reason at all, every penny comes back to you. Every TerraCell also carries a 1-Year Warranty.
