Built through curiosity and experience.

Our story

Before SQ Depot, there were seven Sony Walkmans.

As a child growing up on an island, Sulthan Hameed had limited access to technical equipment, spare parts, and structured learning opportunities.

What he did have was curiosity. He began taking apart portable cassette players, studying their components, and trying to put them back together. He broke seven before he learned how to repair them.

Each failure taught him something the previous attempt had not. With no laboratory and few resources, the devices became his classroom.

“Learning things means having the courage to go beyond failures. I learned how to fix things by breaking up 7 Sony Walkmans.”— Sulthan Hameed, Founder

Curiosity became practical knowledge, and practical knowledge developed into professional electrical work. Over time, his work expanded to building installations, distribution systems, resort villas, solar energy, energy auditing, transformers, battery storage, and HV and LV connections.

SQ Depot grew from that journey. Its foundation is the same island resourcefulness that taught Sulthan to make the most of what was available—the capacity to make something beautiful and valuable from very little.

His childhood experience also inspired The Talented Child, a separate initiative dedicated to practical technology learning.
