While spring doesn’t start officially until next month, it’s time start looking at ways that we can work on cleaning the house when the weather fully warms up. Sun Joe’s 1,550 PSI electric pressure washer is up to the task of blasting away winter grime and salt built-up from both your vehicle and home, and is currently on sale for $77. This is 23% off its typical rate of $100 and Amazon and marks the best price that we’ve seen since January when it fell to $67. We also have a wide selection of Tesla and e-bike discounts in today’s New Green Deals, so you won’t want to miss that either.
Blast winter away with this electric pressure washer
Amazon is offering the Sun Joe SPX205E-MAX 1,550 PSI Electric Pressure Washer for $77.01 shipped. Down 23% from its typical $100 going rate at Amazon, today’s deal marks the best price that we’ve seen since back in January when it fell to $67. Today’s deal is also within $10 of the historic all-time low that we’ve seen. With spring just around the corner, it’s about time to work on blasting away winter grime from your home. This electric pressure washer features an 11A motor that can generate 1,550 PSI at a maximum flow rate of 1.4 GPM. This is more than enough power to blast away salt, grime, and other winter build-up from your car or home. There’s also a wheel and rim brush that makes cleaning your vehicle even easier once spring and summer rolls around. Plus, not a single drop of gas or oil is required for this electric pressure washer to function, and the total stop system turns the pump off when the trigger isn’t being pulled to create less idle noise and increase the life of the system.
Go off-grid this spring with Jackery’s portable power station
The official Jackery Amazon storefront is offering its Explorer 1000 Portable Power Station for $797 shippedonce you clip the on-page coupon. For comparison, you’d typically pay $1,097 for this power station and today’s deal comes in at an additional $52 below our last mention from September. In fact, it’s the lowest that we’ve seen since Black Friday when it hit $769. Prepping you for a completely off-grid experience, this portable power station has a lot to offer. For starters, there are three pure sine wave AC outlets which are capable of delivering up to 1,000W of electricity. Then, there are two 18W USB-C ports as well as dual 2.4A QuickCharge USB-A outputs. You’ll also find support for recharging from an AC outlet on the wall or through DC with a solar panel, which is how it can function completely off-grid like we’ve already mentioned. Of course, zero gas or oil is needed for it to function and this power station runs essentially silent since there’s no motor to run. Check out our hands-on review to learn more.
Gotrax’s just-released Eclipse Electric Scooter sees first discount to $595 (Save $105)
After just launching back in January, Amazon is now offering the first chance to save on the new Gotrax Eclipse Electric Scooter. Dropping down from its usual $700 going rate, today’s offer amounts to $105 in savings thanks to today’s $594.99 shipped sale price. This is the only markdown we’ve seen in the roughly month that it has been on store shelves and is of course an all-time low. Stepping up to a more capable feature set from many of the Gotrax releases we’re accustomed to covering here at 9to5Toys, the newly-revealed Eclipse model comes centered around a 500W motor that can handle cruising at 20 MPH. The built-in 432Wh battery delivers a 28-mile range, while the 10-inch pneumatic tires come paired with other comforts like a front headlight, rear tail lights, and an onboard LED display for monitoring range, speed, and other riding stats in realtime.
The Gotrax GXL V2 on the other hand is a much more affordable way to get in on the electric vehicle action ahead of spring. It currently drops down to $339.99 when clipping the on-page coupon, delivering $40 in savings from the usual $390 going rate. This model isn’t quite as well-equipped to handle more demanding riding requirements, but will get you around the block at up to 15.5 MPH.

The Top Gear TV show might be over, but its tamed racing driver – a masked, anonymous hot shoe known only as “the Stig” – lives on … and his latest adventure involves pitching the 1,400 hp electric Ford SuperVan demonstration vehicle around the famed Top Gear test track. Sideways.
In this video from the official Top Gear YouTube channel (is Top Gear just a YouTube show, now?), the boxy Ford racer seems to have sprouted an additional 600 peak horsepower in its latest “4.2” iteration, for a stout 2,000 hp total. For his (?) part, the Stig puts all of those horses to work in what appears to be a serious attempt to take the overall track record.
I won’t spoil the outcome for you, but suffice it to say that even the most die-hard anti-EV hysterics will have to admit that SuperVan is a seriously quick machine.
SuperVan 4.2: How fast can a 2000 hp transit go?
[SPOILERS AHEAD] Even with 2,000 hp, instant torque, and over 4,000 lbs. of aerodynamic downforce, the SuperVan wasn’t able to beat the long-standing 1st and 2nd place spots held by the Renault R24 (a legit Formula 1 race car) and the Lotus T125 Exos (a track-only special that sure looks like a legit Formula 1 race car), but after crossing the line with a time of 1:05.3, the Ford claims third place on the overall leaderboard.
You can check out the video (above) and watch the whole segment for yourself, or just skip ahead to the eight-minute mark to watch the tire-shredding sideways action promised in the headline. If you do, let us know what you think of Ford’s fast “van” in the comments.
Swedish multinational Sandvik says it’s successfully deployed a pair of fully autonomous Toro LH518iB battery-electric underground loaders at the New Gold Inc. ($NGD) New Afton mine in British Columbia, Canada.
The heavy mining equipment experts at Sandvik say that the revolutionary new 18 ton loaders have been in service since mid-November, working in a designated test area of the mine’s “Lift 1” footwall. The mine’s operators are preparing to move the automated machines to the mine’s “C-Zone” any time now, putting them into regular service by the first of the new year.
“This is a significant milestone for Canadian mining, as these are North America’s first fully automated battery-electric loaders,” Sandvik said in a LinkedIn post. “(The Toro LH518iB’s) introduction highlights the potential of automation and electrification in mining.”
The company says the addition of the new heavy loaders will enable New Afton’s operations to “enhance cycle times and reduce heat, noise and greenhouse gas emissions” at the block cave mine – the only such operation (currently) in Canada.
Electrek’s Take
From drilling and rigging to heavy haul solutions, companies like Sandvik are proving that electric equipment is more than up to the task of moving dirt and pulling stuff out of the ground. At the same time, rising demand for nickel, lithium, and phosphates combined with the natural benefits of electrification are driving the adoption of electric mining machines while a persistent operator shortage is boosting demand for autonomous tech in those machines.
European logistics firm Contargo is adding twenty of Mercedes’ new, 600 km-capable eActros battery electric semi trucks to its trimodal delivery fleet, bringing zero-emission shipping to Germany’s hinterland.
With the addition of the twenty new Mercedes, Contargo’s electric truck fleet has grown to 60 BEVs, with plans to increase that total to 90. And, according to Mercedes, Contargo is just the first.
Contargo’s 20 eActros 600 trucks were funded in part by the Federal Ministry for Digital Affairs and Transport as part of a broader plan to replace a total of 86 diesel-engined commercial vehicles with more climate-friendly alternatives. The funding directive is coordinated by NOW GmbH, and the applications were approved by the Federal Office for Logistics and Mobility.
