The environmentally-conscious savings also continue over to Jackery’s just-released Explorer 2000 Plus power station at $400 off, as well as the best e-bike discounts around and more.

Stay cool and save some cash with discounted ductless split mini AC units

Highlighting all of today’s best discounts, Woot is offering some ways to not just save cash up front, but also over time. Afterall, making the switch to more environmentally-friendly gear isn’t just good for the Earth, but also for your wallet. Now a collection of electric Tosot split air conditioners are on sale for some of the best prices to date. Amongst an assortment of ductless offerings and Wi-Fi-enabled models, shipping is free for Prime members. A $6 delivery fee applies otherwise. Our favorite of the batch is this Turbro Ductless Split Mini AC at $629.99. Normally selling for as much as $1,100, today’s offer now lands with an extra $50 in savings to hit the 2023 low at $470 off.

Those nearly 40% in savings carry with it a capable way to beat the heat this summer and beyond with a 12,000 BTU design. The Greenland mini split AC is also a ductless model, which is far more efficient than your average run of the mill model. There’s an outdoor element that connects in with the actual interior vent, which can cool up 750-square feet. On top of just being far more quiet than an in-window unit, these are designed to cool just a single room at once. So you’ll also be saving money by not having to set the same temperature for your bedroom as the family room. And last but not least, Turbro brings Wi-Fi support into the mix so you can command the 230V system right from your iPhone.

Shop everything in the sale right here, which includes some higher-end models that arrive with as much as $550 in savings attached.

July 4th savings land on Jackery’s new Explorer 2000 Plus

Earlier this spring, Jackery expanded its lineup of popular portable power stations with the new Explorer 2000 Plus. Doing far more than just adding some extra ports and higher battery capacity into the mix, this new release marks the company’s first release in the march to transition over to LFP batteries. Now it’s on sale for the very first time courtesy of the brand’s official Amazon storefront.

Right now, the Jackery Explorer 2000 Plus sells for $1,999 shipped. You’re looking at $400 in savings from the usual $2,399 price tag that it just launched with back in the middle of June, as well as the first chance to save since the original pre-order phase ended.

Everything with Jackery’s latest starts with the Explorer 2000 Plus itself. The new power station finally makes the switch away from the NCM batteries that have long been used by Jackery over to the longer lasting and safer LFP standard. Relying on that new battery tech means that Jackery has been able to pack 3,000W of power output into its latest release. The LiFePO4 battery supports 4,000 charge cycles at over 70% capacity, while fans opperate at a quieter 30dB than other models in the brand’s stable. It has a starting 2kWh capacity, which can be expanded up to 24kWh, too. 

As for how you’ll actually be able to leverage all of that power, the Jackery Explorer 2000 Plus comes outfitted with the kind of flagship roster of ports you’d expect from its latest and greatest. There’s four full AC outlets+ an RV friendly TT-30, as well as dual USB-A slots, a pair of 100W USB-C outputs, and a 12V car jack. Then with inputs, there’s the ability to plug in as many as six of the brand’s SolarSaga panels for truly embracing that off-grid lifestyle.

One of the hallmarks of the new Explorer 2000 Plus is that it also pairs with some expansion batteries for those who need even more juice. Those bundles are on sale, too, with Amazon taking $350 off the new Explorer Kit 4000 at $3,449. Be sure to clip the on-page coupon to lock-in the savings. This too is a new all-time low and extending just how long the battery can keep gear going during power outages, tailgates, and campouts.

WORX delivers a more capable electric mower at $673

We’ve seen a lot of electric lawn mower discounts go live throughout the spring and even some off-season savings back over the winter. But if you’ve needed something a bit more capable to help tame your unruly lawn and those price cuts just didn’t do it for you, Amazon is stepping in to deliver a notable price cut on the WORX Nitro 80V 21-inch electric mower as one of the best July 4th Green Deals. Dropping from the usual $800 going rate for the first time since March, today’s offer lands at $672.82. Those $127 in savings deliver the first offer in months and the third-best price of the year. It’s also $25 under our previous mention.

This WORX electric lawn mower is said to deliver gas-like power without all of the fossil fuel usage. It comes centered around the brand’s 80V ecosystem, powering the brushless motor with four of its 5Ah Pro batteries. There’s a 21-inch cutting deck to pair with a self-propelled form-factor backed by rear wheel drive, an adjustable height to pick from seven different positions, and dual mulching or bagging capabilities. 

E-bikes, a summer favorite!

Other new Green Deals landing for July 4th week

The Independence Day savings this week are also continuing to a collection of other markdowns. To the same tune as the offers above, these all help you take a more energy-conscious approach to your routine.

Can-am Outlander Electric first drive: ATVs are better with a battery

Can-am Outlander Electric first drive: ATVs are better with a battery

Can-Am, a subsidiary of BRP, has officially entered the electric age. After bringing their electric motorcycle to market, they electrified another segment of their line-up: ATVs, starting with the Outlander Electric.

Last month, I visited Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to test out the electric ATV, and I came away impressed by the experience.

Can-Am Outlander Electric

The new Outlander Electric is built for work, and its specs back that up. The electric motor delivers 47 hp and 53 lb-ft of torque, providing instant and silent power. But the headline feature is its impressive 1,830 lb towing capacity, which surpasses even high-end gasoline-powered ATVs from competitors and Can-Am’s own lineup.

The ATV is powered by an 8.9 kWh battery, which is relatively small, offering a range of up to 50 miles (80 km).

While this might not seem like a massive range for recreational users, it’s more than enough for a day’s work on the farm or for hunters and park rangers who need to move quietly through natural environments, which is the intended use of this ATV. It’s not a trail vehicle.

When it comes to charging, the Outlander Electric supports Level 2 charging, which can replenish the battery from 20% to 80% in just 50 minutes. You can also recharge the ATV on a regular 120-volt outlet overnight.

Can-Am has also included several features tailored to the needs of its customers. The Outlander Electric has three selectable ride modes: Normal, Sport, and Work, allowing the rider to adjust the power delivery to the task at hand. It also comes equipped with a 5-inch color display, XPS Recon Force tires, and a full skid plate for protection.

Priced at US $12,999, the Can-Am Outlander Electric ATV is now available on Can-Am’s site and from its dealers.

Outlander Electric First Drive

I’ve been pushing for electric ATVs for years. They make so much sense. Suppose you are using a vehicle to experience nature. In that case, it makes sense that the vehicle doesn’t pollute the nature you are trying to experience, whether this pollution is from emissions or noise.

The near-silent operation of the electric motor is a game-changer for many applications. The lack of engine noise is a significant advantage for farmers working around livestock, hunters who don’t want to scare away game, and anyone who wants to enjoy the outdoors without the disruptive roar of a gas engine.

Speaking of the lack of noise, Can-Am did its homework in this regard. Just like legacy automakers making electric cars for the first time, they realize that the vehicles are noisier than expected, as their internal combustion engines bury some of the quieter clicks and rustles.

At lower speeds, I couldn’t hear a thing coming from the Outlander Electric. Only at higher speeds can you start to hear the winding of the electric motors and the tires throwing back dirt.

Here I was just having fun on the trails near the Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming:

It is the level of polish and refinement that you’d expect from Can-Am – it just happens to be electric.

The Outland Electric is also very capable. With the electric torque and the speed limiter, you find yourself easily pulling heavy loads without even feeling it.

Here I was pulling heavy tree trunks, and I had to look back to make sure they were still attached:

Electrek’s Take

This is a significant move from a major player in the off-road vehicle market. For years, we’ve seen smaller startups and conversions in the electric ATV space, but a full-fledged electric model from a brand like Can-Am signals a real shift in the industry.

The focus on utility and work is a smart one, as Can-Am limited itself to the same powertrain as on its electric motorcycles.

While the 50-mile range might be a sticking point for some recreational riders who want to spend all day on the trails, it’s more than adequate for the target audience of this vehicle: ranchers, farmers, and small farm owners.

The high towing capacity and quiet operation are killer features for anyone who needs to get work done, and the instant torque of the electric motor will be a welcome advantage on the farm or in the field.

The starting price of $17,799 is certainly a premium, but it’s not out of line with high-end gas-powered utility ATVs. When you factor in the reduced maintenance (no oil changes, filters, or spark plugs) and the lower cost of electricity compared to gasoline, the total cost of ownership could be very competitive.

Jeep’s new Grand Wagoneer is America’s first range-extended EV, and it can drive 500 miles

Jeep's new Grand Wagoneer is America's first range-extended EV, and it can drive 500 miles

Jeep’s flagship SUV will be the first range-extended electric vehicle (REEV) in the US. The 2026 Jeep Grand Wagoneer is more powerful, more electric, and more stylish than ever.

Jeep Grand Wagoneer becomes first extended-range EV

The Grand Wagoneer, Jeep’s biggest SUV, has undergone a significant overhaul for the 2026 model year. Jeep updated the SUV with more than just a stylish new design.

The 2026 Jeep Grand Wagoneer will arrive next year as America’s first range-extended EV (REEV), bringing a few changes to the lineup.

For one, Jeep is dropping the smaller Wagoneer name with all 2026 models unifying under one name: The Jeep Grand Wagoneer. Previously, Jeep offered Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer models, each with different trims, which made things too confusing for buyers.

Every Grand Cherokee will now wear the Jeep badge up front as part of its refreshed design. Jeep updated the front face with a slimmer grille and full-length LED lights.

The 2026 Jeep Grand Wagoneer will be available in two powertrains, an REEV or a 3.0 Hurricane Twin Turbo engine.

Jeep said the REEV version will draw power from a liquid-cooled 92 kWh battery pack that lies flat on the floor, helping to preserve interior space.

Power is transferred from a 3.6-liter V6 engine to a 130 kW generator. When the battery gets low, the gas engine acts as a generator, extending the driving range to upwards of 500 miles in total.

Jeep said the Grand Wagoneer “sets a new benchmark in flagship performance.” With an estimated 647 horsepower and 620 lb-ft of torque, the big body SUV can move from 0 to 60 mph in five seconds, making it the most powerful Grand Wagoneer yet.

The 2026 Jeep Grand Wagoneer will be offered with three trims: an entry-level, Limited, and Summit, starting at $62,145.

Summit Obsidian NA $93,390 NA $96,390
2025 Jeep Grand Wagoneer prices by trim (*Excludes $2,595 destination and options)

The Limited trim starts at $71,140, while the Summit will cost at least $93,390. Upgrading to the long wheelbase (LWB) version costs an extra $3,000.

Jeep will begin production later this year of the 2026 Grand Cherokee with the 3.0 Hurricane engine. The extended-range EV version will be built at the Warren Truck Assembly Plant in Michigan alongside its ICE counterparts.

Meanwhile, Jeep has yet to reveal prices or when it will begin production on the REEV version. We should find out soon.

Following right along in the same fashion as yesterday’s Green Deals, today’s edition is led by another pre-sale offer on upcoming tech, with EcoFlow offering a way to score a super early-bird $1,000 discount on its soon-to-release DELTA Pro Ultra X Whole-Home Power Station. Behind it is Heybike’s Halloween Sale, which is not only continuing some Prime Day lows, but also dropping the Hero Carbon-Fiber All-Terrain 1,000W e-bike to a new $1,899 low. We also have EcoFlow’s final extended Prime Day 48-hour flash sale on two extra battery units and a Smart Home Panel 2 – all starting from a $349 low, and more waiting for you below – plus, many more available to browse in our Post-Prime Day Green Deals hub here. And don’t forget about the hangover deals from yesterday that are collected together at the bottom of the page, including the early-bird savings on Anker’s new SOLIX C2000 Gen 2 Portable Power Station, and more.

Here’s how to score $1,000 savings on EcoFlow’s upcoming DELTA Pro Ultra X power station

Right alongside its ongoing Prime Day Sale that has been extended through October 15, EcoFlow has launched the super early-bird savings promotion for its upcoming DELTA Pro Ultra X Whole-Home Power Station (1 inverter and 2x batteries) ahead of its release on November 3, 2025. At this time, pricing information is surprisingly limited, with the brand simply offering the deal of a $500 deposit made between now and November 2, scoring you a $1,000 discount upon its launch from November 3 to November 30. The predecessor model carries a $6,098 tag at full price, with it regularly keeping under $5,000 most of the time, so it’s safe to say that this new model’s MSRP will land somewhere around those rates. Along with the initial discount, the brand is also promising up to $1,000 in installation subsidies when grabbing the station bundled with the brand’s new Smart Home Panel 3. Head below to learn more about this all-new backup power solution.

If you thought EcoFlow couldn’t get more expansive with its whole-home backup solutions, think again, as the new DELTA Pro Ultra X station starts with the same 6,144Wh LiFePO4 capacity (though it seems the base model may be a 2x battery setup starting at 12,288Wh) that you can scale upwards with future investments as high as 180kWh (over the standard DELTA Pro Ultra’s max 90kWh capacity). Like the older model, this one also boasts an expanding output rate from 12,000W to 36,000W, and provides a wide array of output ports to cover devices, appliances, your RV, and so much more – especially if you plan to utilize it to cover your at-home breakers with the new Smart Home Panel 3.

That new Smart Home Panel 3 comes as a 200A hub that can be installed to cover up to 32 circuits in your home, allowing you to easily turn off non-essential loads when the grid fails. Recharging information for the DELTA Pro Ultra X so far shows inputs for an AC outlet, as well as gas generators, solar panels, and even EV chargers – plus, it supports Time-of-Use to automatically charge and discharge the battery based on your regions real-time pricing and electrical forecasts. We will update you with more information as it becomes available to us, and in the meantime, be sure to check out EcoFlow’s introductory video for its DELTA Pro Ultra X station here:

You have through October 15 to take advantage of EcoFlow’s extended Prime Day deals seeing up to 65% discounts, which start from $169. Another new release that is still live with up to $2,000 launch savings is the brand’s DELTA 3 Max and Ultra power stations, plus they get some FREE gear too, all starting from $759.

Heybike offers Hero carbon-fiber all-terrain e-bikes at best prices starting from new $1,899 low, more

Heybike has launched its Halloween Sale with up to $800 savings on e-bikes and some FREE gear accompanying models, which coincides with the launch of its newest Helio F Smart Classic e-bike, which you can learn about in our initial launch coverage. Among the bunch, the largest discount is hitting Heybike’s Hero Carbon-Fiber All-Terrain e-bikes, which are seeing a new low on the 1,000W rear hub model at $1,899 shipped, while the upgraded 750W mid-drive model is keeping to its $2,299 shipped rate we saw during Prime Day. These two e-bikes usually fetch $2,599 and $3,099 at full price, with the latter having sat at this all-time low for the first time during the brand’s Prime Day Sale, while the former is dropping under its previous $2,099 low from that sale for an even better-than-ever deal.

Save up to 56% on EcoFlow DELTA 2 and 3 Pro expansion batteries or a home hub starting from a $349 low for 48 hours

As part of its soon-to-end extended Prime Day Sale, EcoFlow has launched a 48-hour flash sale on three different units to either expand or upgrade your backup support, with prices starting lowest on the DELTA 2 Smart Extra Battery for $349 shipped, which beats out Amazon’s pricing by $60. This add-on unit normally carries a $799 MSRP direct from the brand, though it can often be found down around $599 on average, with discounts having usually dropped the costs further between $449 and $409, save for the one-time fall to this rate we spotted during the 2-day Prime event last week. Now, EcoFlow is bringing that low price back for the remaining days of its extended promotions, giving you a second-ever opportunity at $250 off its going rate ($450 off the MSRP) for the lowest price we have tracked. Head below for more on this and the other two units in this flash sale.
