Deploy Security Cameras Anywhere — No Grid Required

The Gridless off-grid security camera power system is a compact, solar-charged, battery power and communications kit that lets law enforcement agencies deploy surveillance technology anywhere — including locations where grid power is unavailable, impractical, or cost-prohibitive.

Pole-Mount Ready

Mounts directly to any existing pole or structure — no trailer, no footprint

Truly Self-Contained

Operates continuously without fuel, external wiring, or recurring rental costs

Works With What You Have

Integrates with any major camera brand or VMS platform

Flexible Power Configurations

Also available in grid-tied AC configurations for locations with existing power

From crime hotspots and transit corridors to parks, parking facilities, and rural patrol areas — Gridless gets eyes on the locations that matter most, faster and at a fraction of the cost of traditional deployment.

Why Law Enforcement Agencies Choose Gridless for Solar-Powered Surveillance

Tackle crime with your technology.

Deploy the security tech your department already uses or prefers — video surveillance, License Plate Recognition (LPR), alarms, speakers, sensors, and more. Gridless powers it all without dictating your camera brand or VMS platform.

Eliminate trenching and infrastructure costs.

Skip the expensive, time-consuming process of running conduit, pulling permits for buried cable, or paying for grid extensions to remote locations. Gridless is self-contained and ready to mount.

Go from approval to deployment in days.

No infrastructure dependencies means no waiting on utility companies, permit queues, or construction crews. Once a Gridless unit ships, deployment is fast — measured in hours, not months.

Do more with the force you have.

Put advanced surveillance technology in more locations without increasing headcount. Gridless gives your officers better situational awareness — more eyes on more ground, even in areas that were previously impractical to cover.

Deter criminal activity in vulnerable areas.

A visible, professionally installed camera system signals to would-be offenders that a location is actively monitored. Gridless makes it economical to cover the spots where deterrence matters most.

Get real-time information from the field.

Connected via cellular or point-to-point, Gridless-powered cameras deliver live video and data to your officers before they arrive on scene — so they’re informed, prepared, and ready.

Want to deploy License Plate Recognition cameras without grid power?

LPR technology is only as effective as where you can put it. Gridless removes the infrastructure barrier — providing solar-charged, off-grid battery power and connectivity so your LPR cameras can go anywhere: intersections, parking lots, community corridors, and locations where running power was never an option. Monitor vehicle movement, identify plates and patterns, and get immediate alerts — without limits.

Capture plates and solve crime in a split second.

Every Gridless battery unit comes with gMS™, our remote management system for advanced monitoring and troubleshooting.

The Gridless gMS remote management system is included with each battery unit, enabling continuous monitoring of your off-grid security camera power infrastructure.

Powered by intelligent analytics, gMS provides real-time visibility into system performance, supporting optimization of efficiency, lifecycle, and operational safety—while helping reduce the need for on-site technician visits.

This transforms Gridless systems into fully managed, data-driven power assets for remote deployments.

Manage all your units in one simple platform.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Gridless require existing infrastructure or internet access?

No. Gridless makes off-grid security camera power stations — they combine solar, battery storage, and connectivity in one field-ready case, so cameras can be deployed without trenching, wiring, or permanent power. Constant AC and Intermittent AC options are available for tapping into existing power infrastructure.

Can one Gridless unit power multiple cameras at a single site?

Yes. Capacity scales across the gS0 through gS4 configurations, so a single site with more than one camera — covering multiple approaches to an intersection, or traffic entering and exiting a shopping center, for example — can be matched to a configuration sized for the full camera load. Our team uses a custom solar model designed by our engineers to size each deployment, so the system is built to your specific site and camera setup rather than a one-size-fits-all estimate.

Can Gridless power License Plate Recognition (LPR) cameras?

Yes. Gridless systems are compatible with LPR cameras, making them a fit for corridor monitoring, checkpoint deployments, and other LPR-specific use cases where running power and connectivity to the site isn’t practical. With Gridless, LPR cameras can also be easily paired with context cameras, so you see the full picture — not just the plate.

How is footage or data secured on a Gridless-powered system?

Gridless only provides the power and connectivity layer for your camera and LPR equipment — it doesn’t store footage, process plate reads, or set data-retention policy. Those functions live with your camera and VMS/LPR software, so your existing data governance and retention policies apply exactly as they would with a grid-powered installation.

Is Gridless compatible with grant-funded security projects?

Yes — Gridless equipment can typically be purchased as part of grant-funded projects. Because grant eligibility can be restricted to specific equipment types or locations, we recommend confirming with your funding source that it applies to your department’s intended project before purchasing. Our reps may be able to help direct you toward third-party grant-writing services.

Can units be deployed temporarily and relocated?

For temporary or short-term deployments, we recommend our mast kit or trailer-mounted options — both are built specifically for units that need to move. Pole-mounted units are self-contained and don’t require permanent infrastructure, but we do not recommend relocating them frequently once installed.

Can Gridless mount on existing traffic signal or utility poles?

Yes — Gridless units can mount on existing traffic signal and utility poles, so you can typically avoid the cost and delay of installing new infrastructure. Depending on the pole owner and location, a permit from the utility company or municipality may be required before mounting, so we recommend checking with the pole owner early in the planning process.

Does Gridless work with the camera brands and VMS platforms my department already uses?

Gridless is compatible with most major camera brands and VMS platforms, including Axis, Avigilon (Motorola Solutions), Pelco, Rhombus, i-PRO, Verkada, and Hanwha, and integrates with VMS platforms like Axis Camera Station Edge, Verkada Command, Milestone, Genetec, Hanwha Wave, and YourSix — so in most cases there’s no need to replace existing camera hardware or software.
