Bridging Innovation: My Journey Through Lithium Energy Storage and Command & Control Systems (2013-2020) In 2013, I was invited into a pioneering collaboration with a team developing lithium-powered utility vehicles, golf carts, and electric motorized camera dollies for the film industry—including a landmark project celebrating the 50-year anniversary of the Meyers Manx, reimagined as electric for Bruce Meyers himself. This wasn’t just about vehicles—it was about redefining how energy could be stored, managed, and deployed across industries. At the heart of these innovations was a critical truth: lithium-based batteries are not passive components. They require intelligent computer interaction to manage cell balancing, charging cycles, and thermal regulation. This necessity aligned perfectly with my expertise in Out-of-Band Access and remote management—because anything computer-based demands secure, reliable control infrastructure. I recognized early on that the same principles I’d long applied to data centers were now essential to the future of mobile energy systems. Over the years, I became the go-to demonstration expert for these prototypes, conducting hands-on showcases across the United States. I hauled these vehicles myself, presenting their capabilities to prospective clients, investors, and industry leaders—capturing countless videos and moments that documented the excitement and potential of lithium mobility. These events were more than technical demos; they were immersive experiences that revealed how high-performance lithium systems could revolutionize not just transportation, but also broadcast, film, and enterprise power solutions. Among the most memorable of these showcases was a road trip I called "22 Days of Smiles," where I shuttled the electric lithium- powered Meyers Manx from its 50-year celebration in Long Beach in 2014 to Disney's Car Masters event in Orlando, FL. Disney requested the vehicle be featured prominently on the main road, and their newest movie at the time credited Bruce Meyers MANX known as Old Red as the inspiration for a character in Cars 2—an homage to the legacy of the original Meyers Manx. I’ve captured nearly 40 videos of customers driving these prototype vehicles, in addition to the 22 Days of Smiles road trip and each one is a testament to the joy, innovation, and transformative potential of lithium mobility. These videos will be featured to highlight the real- world impact and excitement surrounding these technologies.

This chapter of my career has been a privilege. It allowed me to control, and communication can be unified under a single, intelligent framework. It’s a story of innovation, but also of continuity: the same principles of reliability, clarity, and control that define OOBAXS

disciplines. My deep knowledge of command and control systems, IT infrastructure, and remote access protocols became directly applicable to the challenges of lithium battery integration. I also generation—solar, wind, and hybrid systems—which expanded my
