About Us

Home / About Us

Summit Technology was founded in 1992 by Ken Kious with an ambitious idea. “Why not make a smaller, cheaper power analyzer that could be used anywhere, on anything, without becoming obsolete?” … Why not? … Ken was a successful electronic engineer and small businessman who knew what he valued when he bought or rented measurement gear. At that time, analyzers were the size of personal computers, cost an arm and a leg, and had limited capabilities. Since that time much has changed, but the PowerSight brand remains an expression of our core values:

We are committed to your success.
