Save an exclusive $250 on ENGWE’s EP-2 PRO Electric Bike at new $599 low

It’s been an exciting week of 9to5Toys-exclusive Green Deals – and it’s not over yet! Readers can now save $250 on ENGWE’s EP-2 PRO Electric Bike at $599 shipped at Wellbots, after using the exclusive code 9TO5RIDE250 at checkout. Down from its $849 price tag, with an even higher $1,099 MSRP direct from ENGWE, we’ve mainly seen this model keep between $699 and $720 during most price cuts over the last few years, with only one previous one in 2024 that went lower to $629 in March. You can now score this e-bike for your commute or general enjoyment at a 29% markdown (45% off the MSRP) which drops it to the lowest price we have tracked to date.

Engwe’s EP-2 PRO electric bike arrives stocked with a 750W brushless motor (peaking at 960W) and a 48V 15.6Ah battery that gives you an impressive 50+ miles of travel on a single charge, beating out a lot of more expensive models both in performance and price – plus, it even boasts a maximum 28 MPH top speed too! There are five levels of pedal assistance here to balance out its energy consumption options with either more travel time or faster speeds, depending on conditions and your setting selection.

It’s been given a durable build for when your trips venture off the beaten paths, with front suspension and all-terrain fat tires. There are also some decent features here (especially at this low of a price) with hydraulic disc brakes, a 5-speed Shimano gearbox, an ergonomic saddle and grips, a rear cargo rack, fenders over both wheels, and a centered LCD Display right at your fingertips.

Bundle EcoFlow’s DELTA Pro 3,600Wh power station with a 400W panel at $3,099 and get $1,000 in free gear

Checking back in on EcoFlow’s Disaster Campaign sale, which is taking up to $2,817 off power stations, bundles, and accessories through September 22, we’ve spotted a hot deal on the brand’s DELTA Pro Portable Power Station that comes along with a 400W solar panel, a transfer switch, and an 800W alternator charger at $3,099 shipped. You’d normally run up a bill of $5,316 on this particular bundle normally, but this sale is taking 42% off its usual going rate and bringing costs down among some of the lowest we’ve seen, saving you a total of $2,217.

One of the bigger contenders on the backup power market today, the tried and true DELTA Pro power station delivers a massive 3,600Wh capacity that you can expand even more up to 25kWh when paired alongside the dedicated smart extra batteries while also adding additional power station units. It’s able to provide up to 3,600W of power output that maxes out at 7,200W when surging and comes with a plethora of versatile ports to tap into for outward charging needs: five AC ports, four USB-A ports, two USB-C ports, two DC ports, and a car port.

The station’s own battery can be plugged into a standard wall outlet to fully recharge in 1.8 hours, or you can hook up a maximum of 1,600W of solar input to recharge over 2.8 hours. All the usual remote smart controls you’ve come to expect from EcoFlow is available here, accessed through the companion app when connected by Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. The included 800W Alternator Charger also allows you to charge while you drive for refueled power on the go.

The transfer switch gives you plug and play home backup support for your home and/or RV, with the unit itself arriving pre-wired for easier installation. Should a sudden blackout occur in your area, you’ll be able to have immediate continued power for selective appliances/sections of your home. Keep in mind that it is designed for indoor use with the appropriate circuit breaker panels, which you can learn more about here.

Blix launches new Sol X Comfort e-bike with a $1,799 special and bonus gift

Running alongside its latest sale, Blix is giving folks a chance at a little savings on its new Sol X Comfort e-bike that is now at $1,799 shipped. Priced at a reasonable $1,899 normally after this special, it follows the same trend that we saw on the brand’s new Vika X Folding e-bike from a few weeks ago, which is also still live for the time being. Like that release, this one is getting a quaint $100 taken off the tag, which isn’t a whole lot, but seeing as many competitors tend to take months to years before seeing first discounts, it’s appreciated. Along with your purchase, you’ll also be gifted with a free everyday bag that is valued at $89. As always, Blix offers an additional $200 discount when buying two e-bikes together and using the code RIDETOGETHER at checkout.

The Blix Sol X e-bike cruises into the e-mobility market with a 750W rear-hub motor paired alongside a 614.4Wh, delivering a 70-mile travel range which is a vast improvement over the Sol Eclipse’s 45-mile one. There are three levels of pedal assistance here with an upgraded torque sensor for expanded support. Like its Vika X sibling, this model can also actively switch between class 2 or class 3 settings, allowing you to choose either the more battery-manageable 20 MPH speeds or ramp things up to their max 28 MPH speeds – though, like always, keep in mind these higher settings will affect your travel distance. It’s also worth noting that it does all this while boasting a 400-pound payload!

As part of the brand’s X series, it’s also been equipped with optional automatic shifting that can adjust gear settings and the motor power to better match the rider’s pedaling – of course, you also have an electronic shifter to make those calls too, enhancing the bike’s convenience even further. There are plenty more features here worth mentioning too, like the auto-adjusting backlit color display, integrated 20-lux headlight and taillight that sports braking and turn signal functionality, hydraulic disc brakes, Microshift 8-speed derailleur, the rear cargo rack, puncture-resistant tires, as well as fenders over both of them.

There are also the brand’s tried and true models that are seeing discounts in the latest sale too, which are worth considering if you’re just looking for a reliable commuter at less of a price.

ENGWE EP-2 PRO Electric Bike

Segway’s 2nd-gen Ninebot S2 smart self-balancing scooter hits new $494 Amazon low

Amazon is currently offering the Segway Ninebot S2 Smart Self-Balancing Scooter at $494 shipped. Normally this newer model would run you $550 here, with a higher $600 MSRP direct from Segway these days after tariffs brought starting costs up by $100 in June. Rarely ever seeing discounts, we did see it launch at its lowest rate ever for $450 back in January, which we haven’t seen since, but today you’re looking at the best rate we’ve tracked on Amazon, beating our previous mention and its previous low by $6, the lowest its been since its pre-order launch. You can get an in-depth look at this newer model by heading below or checking out our initial launch coverage.

Whether you’re looking for a way to get around the neighborhood or even make your smaller commutes more fun, the Ninebot S2 is here with an alternative electric form than we usually cover here. It arrives via its dual 800W (1,600W total) motors that bumps its max speed up to 11.2 MPH from previous models, while the 335Wh battery provides 21.7 miles of travel per 4.5 hours of charging, with enough torque to handle 15-degree slopes without concern. It’s been equipped with rugged 10-inch off-road tubeless pneumatic tires that offer improved stability and durability when you head off the paved streets for “superior traction on any surface.”

With its adjustable design, this model can accommodate rider heights ranging from 4-foot-three inches to six-foot-six inches, while also being able to carry up to a 220-pound payload. Two notable features of this second-generation model are the built-in Bluetooth speaker that allows you to listen to your favorite tunes, as well as the wheels and taillights that offer full customizable RGB ambient lighting to reflect your personality while also providing better visibility in low-light conditions.

Greenworks

Greenworks Pro 3,000 PSI Electric Pressure Washer returns to $290 low

After first spotting this deal a few days ago in a one-day-only sale, Amazon is offering a more long-term discount on the Greenworks Pro 3000 PSI Electric Pressure Washer for $289.99 shipped. It’s normally listed at $450 most days, with Best Buy often including it in its Deals of the Day, which is where we first saw this same discount appear just a few days ago. Now folks have a chance to score it at a 36% markdown, the biggest discount we’ve seen to date, landing it back at its all-time lowest price.

This pressure washer from Greenworks typically gets a lot of buzz when discounts hit, and its no surprise as its one of the more powerful models from the brand with its systems maxing out at 3,000 PSI with a 1.1 to 2.0 GPM flow rate. Along with its obvious capabilities that we’ve discussed here in abundance, it comes with an array of versatile nozzles to tackle a wider range of jobs, which also have their own storage space. There’s 25 feet of non-marring hose, an onboard one-gallon detergent tank, and also a Total Stop System that saves you energy and money by cutting off the pump upon you letting go of the wand’s trigger.

Goal Zero

Goal Zero’s 500 Lumen Torch light doubles as a 5,200mAh solar power bank at new $30 low

Through its official Amazon storefront, Goal Zero is giving folks a great deal on its 500 Lumen Torch Light for $29.97 shipped, after clipping the on-page 40% off coupon. Normally sitting at a $50 price tag, we’ve seen a few different discounts on this device in 2024, mainly keeping above $42, with the most recent discount from May dropping costs further to $38. It’s been quiet since then though, and today’s deal comes in after over three months with the biggest price cut we’ve tracked to date, dropping costs down to a new all-time low.

Whether you’re tinkering around in a garage, working outdoors in the dark, camping in the wilds, or dealing with a sudden blackout – this Goal Zero torch can handle it all. It’s been designed for multi-functional use, with 500 lumens of bright LED light being delivered via its focused spotlight or the more wide-reaching flood light, small enough to fit right in your hand or you can use the attached bars to hang it higher up. Coming with an IP67 dust and waterproof rating, it has an internal 5,200mAh power bank and even a built-in solar panel for when you’re not near any USB-C source – plus, yes, the USB-C port on the device can also be used to recharge your phone when you need it.

Worx

Save space, time, and money with Worx’s 20V 12-inch trimmer/edger/mini-mower at $100 for today only

Coming to us via its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is offering the Worx GT Revolution 20V 12-inch Brushless Cordless String Trimmer/Edger/Mini-Mower for $99.99 shipped. Normally this 3-in-1 tool would cost you $150, today’s price cut has only been beaten out by two previous discounts this year, both dropping things further to the $89 low in June and again during Prime Day in July. For the rest of the day you can take advantage of the $50 that’s been shaved off its tag, which gives you this upgrade for your tool shed at its second-lowest rate that we have tracked.

You don’t need to buy three different tools, losing even more space in your shed or garage, especially today. Instead, investing in tools like this GT Revolution can save you space, time, and money as it comes with three different functions for your garden and lawn care routines. It effortlessly converts to either a string trimmer, a wheeled edger, or a mini-mower to tackle the jobs at hand and keep everything well-manicured. It weighs an easily manageable six pounds to start, with a telescoping shaft (one foot longer than its predecessor), 7 different handle positions, and six rotating head positions for greater versatility and flexibility. Falling within the PowerShare family, its 20V 4.0Ah battery can be switched out with over 75+ other tools in Worx’s ecosystem. With the brand’s equipped command feed system old line is replaced with a simple press of a button.

Ørsted’s largest solar farm in the world is now online in Texas

Ørsted's largest solar farm in the world is now online in Texas

The Mockingbird Solar Center, Ørsted’s largest solar project globally, is now online, next to protected prairie donated by the renewable energy giant.

This massive 468-megawatt (MW) solar farm is set to power 80,000 homes and businesses, providing a major boost to the Texas grid.

But the launch of Mockingbird Solar isn’t just about clean energy – it’s also about restoring precious ecosystems. Ørsted has donated 953 acres of the Smiley-Woodfin Native Prairie Grassland, which sits next to the solar center, to The Nature Conservancy. The donated land is now the Smiley Meadow Preserve, a protected area for tallgrass prairie that’s home to more than 400 species of grasses and wildflowers.

Tallgrass prairies are some of the rarest ecosystems in the US, with less than 1% of Texas’ original tallgrass prairies still in existence. Tallgrass prairie does a lot of heavy lifting for the environment, including storing carbon, preventing floods, and providing crucial habitats for pollinators.

“Native prairies are the rarest landscapes left in Texas – so much so that many people have never seen one,” said David Bezanson, land protection strategy program director for The Nature Conservancy in Texas. He added that preserving Smiley Meadow will not only conserve one of the best prairie remnants left but also help restore other prairie habitats and boost regional biodiversity.

The Mockingbird Solar Center, a half-billion-dollar project, is part of Ørsted’s $20 billion push to expand renewable energy production across the US. Beyond generating electricity, it will inject $75 million into local property taxes, benefiting schools and other public services. The project also created over 550 construction jobs and will continue to be supported by operations staff moving forward.

Ørsted worked with US companies, including First Solar, for solar panels and partnered with local businesses like Drake Construction and Pfifer Farms for construction materials. It also gave more than $50,000 to local volunteer fire departments in Roxton and Brookston.

With Mockingbird Solar now up and running, Ørsted has more than 6 gigawatts of onshore wind, solar, and battery storage projects either in operation or being built across the US.

Cramer names oil and natural gas stocks set to do well under Trump

Cramer names oil and natural gas stocks set to do well under Trump

CNBC’s Jim Cramer on Friday said companies related to natural gas and oil will thrive under President-elect Donald Trump’s administration and a majority Republican Congress.

“We’re hearing about all sorts of Trump trades right now, and many of these things have made insane moves in less than three weeks, to the point where, actually, they’re feeling precarious to me,” he said. “If you want a sustainable Trump trade, I say bet on the natural gas ecosystem. This is an industry that already had a lot going for it, it just needed some cooperation from the federal government, which it is about to get.”

President Joe Biden’s administration is largely opposed to fossil fuels, Cramer said, and the federal government has worked to block pipelines and paused new liquified gas export authorizations. This dynamic, coupled with a weaker global economy, caused the sector to underperform for much of the year, he suggested. But Trump has shown more favor to the industry, and Cramer pointed out that he tapped prominent oil executive Chris Wright to lead the Department of Energy.

Cramer recommended several stocks in the sector, including energy producers EQT and Coterra. The former is focused on natural gas and recently acquired peer Equitrans, raising the combined company’s valuation to an estimated $35 billion, Cramer noted. He added that Coterra is a good long-term holding and called the company “one of the shrewdest operators in the industry.”

He highlighted pipeline companies, including Energy Transfer and Kinder Morgan, and said he was especially bullish on Enbridge. Enbridge says it transports about 20% of all natural gas consumed in the U.S., and Cramer claimed the Canadian outfit has “strategically located assets.” He also named Cheniere and Sempra, saying the former is the “best play” for liquified natural gas exports.

“Seasonally, this is a good time for the commodity,” he said, pointing out that natural gas itself has climbed since the election. “But I also think there’s some optimism about the future of the industry driving this move.”

Jeep-Wagoneer-S-EV-lease-prices

Jeep’s first global luxury electric SUV will arrive at US dealerships any day. Despite its $72,000 price tag, lease prices for the 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S EV start at just $599 per month.

2024 Jeep Wagoneer S EV lease prices

After unveiling its first global electric SUV, Jeep’s CEO said the Wagoneer S “marks a new chapter” in its storied history.

Jeep claims the Wagoneer S packs “exhilarating performance.” With 600 hp and 617 lb-ft of torque, the big-body SUV can sprint from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds. Its 100 kWh battery pack also gives it a driving range of over 300 miles.

The electric SUV is unmistakably still a Jeep, but it did get several upgrades to distinguish it as an EV. The grille is now enclosed without the need to cool a massive engine, giving it a sporty, more modern look.

Jeep revamped its design with a new illuminated seven-slot grille with ambient cast lightning. It also fine-tuned its profile, adding flush door handles, a rear wing, and integrated fins for better airflow.

The first Jeep Wagoneer S Launch Edition models get exclusive dark accent design elements like 20″ Gloss Black Wheels.

Inside, the electric SUV is loaded with the latest tech and connectivity, including a best-in-class 45″ of usable screen space. The setup includes a 12.3″ center screen and an exclusive 10.25″ interactive front passenger screen.

According to Jeep, the 2024 Jeep Wagoneer S Launch Edition can be leased for $599 per month for 36 months (10,000 miles per year). The deal includes $4,999 due at signing and a $7,500 EV incentive. However, you may want to act fast, as Jeep’s offer is only good until December 2, 2024.
