Down on More Sarai Road in Anand Parbat, you’ll find Advance Power Centre at Shop No 1. It’s a busy corner of the city, and our shop is right in the thick of it. We deal with a lot of power stuff, mostly batteries and backup systems that people need for their homes or small shops. The space is filled with heavy units, so moving things around can be a real workout. I spend a lot of my time checking connections or helping people figure out why their lights went out. It’s not a glamorous job, but it keeps the neighborhood running. The walls are a bit scuffed from moving all those heavy boxes, and the floor is concrete because anything else would just break. During the summer, it gets really hot in here, so we keep the door wide open to catch whatever breeze comes off the road. Most of the people who come in are locals or guys working in the nearby industrial bits. We talk about the weather and the power cuts while I write out receipts on a small wooden desk. Sometimes the delivery trucks block the entrance, and we have to shout a bit to get them to move. It’s a regular day-to-day business where things are practical. We don't have any fancy displays, just the equipment sitting there ready to go. It’s just how we do things at 2287/40.
