What Hurricanes Harvey and Irma Tell Us about Wireless Carrier Preparedness

Disclaimer: This blog is in no way meant to diminish the concern everyone at BatteryDAQ has for every living creature in the paths of these natural disasters.  We would also like to note that there exist many other ways to disrupt the power grid, both naturally and man-initiated.

Success is Never Final – Battery Monitoring and Credit Cards


“ATTENTION TO DETAIL DRIVES EVERYTHING WE DO.”

It is a catchy phrase, sure enough.  But, like every set of words strung together, the phrase can quickly slip into nothingness as quickly as it is uttered.  Attention to detail drives everything we do.  Believe it or not, the key word in that concept is “we”.  In many cases, an individual can be driven by attention to detail.  Everyone knows someone who is meticulous in their focus. Individual greatness, while always notable, has been witnessed by the masses numerous times.  It is admired, and in some cases, emulated..at least for a while.
