Save $500 on ENGWE’s E26 dual-suspension all-terrain e-bike at $899 and get free gear

Checking back in on ENGWE’s Halloween sale, which is taking up to $600 off a lineup of e-bikes and giving away some free gear for two more days, we noticed a particularly good deal on the brand’s E26 Dual-Suspension All-Terrain e-bike for $899 shipped. Normally priced at $1,399 these days, we’ve mainly seen costs taken down somewhere between $999 and $1,199 more often, with today’s deal giving you a solid $500 off the going rate at the lowest price we can find. You’ll even get $69 in free gear too, with a bike lock, a phone holder, and a helmet with a face shield. It’s the best place to buy this model at the moment, with Amazon having discounted it to a higher $999 rate. You can learn more below or in our hands-on review.

ENGWE’s E26 all-terrain e-bike arrives with either a step-over or step-thru design as an affordable option for folks with longer-distance commuting needs. It comes stocked with a 750W brushless motor (peaking at 1,000W to provide up to 70Nm of torque) and a removable 48V 16Ah battery that provides a 28 MPH top speed alongside a rated 86 miles of travel distance on a single charge when utilizing the pedal assistance. While real-world performance will likely not reach the 80s range of distance, you’ll definitely get 40+ miles out of it, with throttle-only use shortening that range to around 30+ miles, give or take. For such a low price, this e-bike offers some solid additional features too, with its dual-suspension, hydraulic disc brakes, LED headlight and taillight, a 7-speed Shimano drivetrain, fat tires with fenders over each, a rear cargo rack, and a large LCD color display.

Exclusive Bluetti AC180P portable power station low

Save an exclusive $400 on Bluetti’s 1,440Wh AC180P LiFePO4 portable power station at new $499 low

You can now score a 9to5Toys-exclusive low price from Wellbots on the Bluetti AC180P Portable Power Station for $499 shipped, after using the code 9TO5EARLYBF400 at checkout for $400 off. Normally fetching $899 here, with a greater $999 price tag from Bluetti and other retailers starting it as high as $1,099, there hasn’t been many discounts on this model so far this year. When it does get discounted, it often drops from the higher pricing that I mentioned to $899, which has held out as the lowest price. It’s being beaten out here by an additional $400, giving you a larger-capacity backup power solution at the best rate we can find anywhere.

Bluetti’s AC180P power station arrives as the largest capacity model in the AC180 series, providing a 1,440Wh LiFePO4 battery capacity and dishing out power at up to 1,800W (surging to 2,700W), making it a considerably strong companion for outdoor enthusiasts who might also want to have a backup option in case of emergencies too – especially with it able to hold its charge for three to six months at 80%. It also sports far more outport options than its counterpart models, with four ACs, four USB-As, one USB-C, one DC car port, and even a wireless charger.

With its turbo-charging tech, you’ll be able to reach a full battery in up to 1.8 hours plugged into a wall outlet (with 80% taking only 45 minutes), while hooking up to its maximum 500W solar input allows for a recharge in up to 3.3 hours – plus, you can connect it to your car to recharge in 12.5 hours too. Of course, you’ll also have full smart controls over its settings and performance, as well, all accessed through the companion app.

Segway Ninebot S MAX self-balancing scooter

Hop on Segway’s easy-to-ride Ninebot S MAX self-balancing scooter for $500 low while it lasts

Browsing through Segway’s ongoing Halloween sale that is taking up to 60% off a lineup of its EVs through November 2, you’ll find the Ninebot S MAX self-balancing scooter down at $499.99 shipped for the time being. Normally priced at $1,200, this model is getting one of the largest discounts of the entire sale with $700 being cut off the price tag. While the savings last, you’ll be able to add this fun self-balancing scooter to your commute or general joyrides at the lowest price we have tracked, with it currently only available in used condition at Amazon at a much higher rate too.

Segway’s Ninebot S MAX scooter arrives stocked with dual 500W motors (1000W nominal power peaking up to 4800W) and a 432Wh battery that increases the speed and travel range over its predecessor S series self-balancing models, able to hit 12.4 MPH for up to 23.6 miles on a single charge. And if you’ve never climbed aboard one of these types of scooters, have no fear, as its companion app delivers step-by-step guidance for newcomers alongside smart controls. Not only does it keep itself balanced for you, but the Leansteer tech gives you precision response times in 0.01 seconds, meaning there won’t be any lag time that might cause you to fall off. There are also rear customizable LED lights for some personal flair while riding, and its compact design is easy to transport when not being directly ridden.

If you’re looking to grab an affordable commuting solution from this sale, there’s quite a few entry-level e-scooters that start from much lower prices:

Be sure to check out our full coverage of Segway’s Halloween sale to get a complete rundown of EV discounts that will be around until November 2, like the Ninebot MAX G30LP KickScooter that boasts regenerative braking for extended travels.

Rexing J1772 to Tesla EV charging adapter

Gain wider charging access with Rexing’s J1772 to Tesla EV adapter at $45 low (Today only)

Through its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is offering a return to the best rate on Rexing’s J1772 to Tesla EV Charger Adapter for $44.99 shipped. It is normally priced at $80 most days, with most of the discounts coming in the form of these one-day sales and dropping costs to $50 on average, with only one fall further to the $45 low back in July. Today though, this rate is returning for a second time, giving Tesla drivers a handy adapter at the all-time lowest price we have tracked.

Despite the wide coverage of Tesla charging stations across the country, they haven’t necessarily spread out evenly, and no one wants to get caught without any juice to go. Well, this adapter supports you through the problem, as it gives Tesla drivers a wider access to level 1 and level 2 EV chargers. It comes rated for a maximum 80A input and 240V output and stores right inside a glove box for easy keeping, making it perfect for sudden stop-offs at unaffiliated J1772 EV stations or for when you may be visiting non-Tesla friends/family who have a non-compatible home or portable setup.

At the moment, you can also find Rexing’s CCS to Tesla Adapter down at $149.99 from its full $200 price tag, offering an additional opportunity for drivers of a Tesla S, 3, X, or Y. Adding this adapter right along with the above adapter will offer further compatibility for your EV journeys, giving you access to over 5,000 CCS level 3 fast charging stations at up to 250kW or 250A speeds.

Anker EverFrost Dual-Zone Portable Electric Cooler

For the rest of the day you can save $330 on Anker’s 53L EverFrost dual-zone portable electric cooler at $619

Coming in as part of its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is offering the Anker EverFrost Dual-Zone Portable Cooler 50 for $619 shipped. This is the largest of the three EverFrost models, often keeping near its $949 price tag, though we’ve been seeing a growing trend of discounts over 2024 that has periodically dropped the price down between $699 and $799 on average, with a few falls lower to $619 and one drop to the $600 low back in March. For today only, you can score this dual-zone model at a $330 markdown that lands it at the second-lowest price we have tracked – just $19 above the all-time low from spring. You won’t find it over at Amazon right now either, as its been out of stock for some time.

You won’t need to worry about ice with this dual-zone cooler from Anker, sporting a 53L storage capacity alongside an internal 299Wh battery that can keep your food and beverages refrigerated and/or frozen for up to 27 hours before needing to be plugged in. You can even take advantage of its solar-charging capabilities with a maximum 100W solar input (along with some additional charging options) to further extend the battery’s lifespan. It also features two USB-A ports and one USB-C port to recharge your personal devices when you need some backup power. It’s been designed for portability, with an EasyTow handle and two 6-inch wheels alongside an extendable table, a built-in bottle opener, and remote smart controls through the Anker app.

While it is currently not benefitting from Anker’s direct Halloween sale, you will find its two smaller 33L and 43L models getting discounts, with the dual-zone deal above beating out the price on the latter of the two by $30. You can check out more information about Anker’s sale, which ends November 3, by following the link here.

YMX Logistics deploys 20 new Orange EV electric yard trucks

YMX Logistics deploys 20 new Orange EV electric yard trucks

YMX Logistics and Orange EV Join Forces to Deliver Zero Emission Transportation Solutions to Yard Operations Across North America

Leading yard operation 3PL YMX Logistics has announced plans to deploy fully twenty (20) of Orange EV’s fully electric Class 8 terminal trucks at a number of distribution and manufacturing sites across North America.

As the shipping and logistics industries increasingly move to embrace electrification, yard operations have proven to be an almost ideal use case for EVs, enabling companies like Orange EV, which specialize in yard hostlers or terminal tractors, to drive real, impactful change. To that end, companies like YMX are partnering with Orange EV.

“This relationship between YMX and Orange EV is a significant step forward in transforming yard operations across North America,” said Matt Yearling, CEO of YMX Logistics. “Besides the initial benefits of reduction in emissions and carbon footprint, our customers are also seeing improvements in the overall operational efficiency and seeking to expand. Our team members have also been sharing positive feedback about their new equipment and highlighting the positive impact on their health and day-to-day activities.”

This Orange looks good in blue

One of the most interesting aspects of this story – beyond the Orange EV HUSK-e XP’s almost unbelievable 180,000 lb. GCWR spec. – is that this isn’t a story about California’s ports, which mandate EVs. Instead, YMX is truly deploying these trucks throughout the country, with at least four currently in Chicago (and more on the way).

“Our collaboration with YMX Logistics represents a powerful stride in delivering sustainable yard solutions at scale for enterprise customers,” explains Wayne Mathisen, CEO of Orange EV. “With rising demand for electric yard trucks, our joint efforts ensure that more companies can access the environmental, financial, and operational benefits of electrification … this is a win for the planet, the workforce, and the bottom line of these organizations.”

We interviewed Orange EV founder Kurt Neutgens on The Heavy Equipment Podcast a few months back, but if you’re not familiar with these purpose-built trucks, it’s worth a listen.

One of the US’s first solar peaker plants – with Tesla Megapacks – just came online

Arevon Energy has kicked off operations at Vikings Solar-plus-Storage – one of the US’s first utility-scale solar peaker plants.

The $529 million project in Imperial County, California, near Holtville, features 157 megawatts of solar power paired with 150 megawatts/600 megawatt hours of battery storage.

Vikings Solar-plus-Storage is designed to take cheap daytime solar power and store it for use during more expensive peak demand times, like late afternoons and evenings. The battery storage system can quickly respond to changes in demand, helping tackle critical grid needs.

Vikings leverages provisions in the Inflation Reduction Act that support affordable clean energy, strengthen grid resilience, boost US manufacturing, and create good jobs.

The Vikings project has already brought significant benefits to the local area. It employed over 170 people during construction, many local workers, and boosted nearby businesses like restaurants, hotels, and stores. On top of that, Vikings will pay out more than $17 million to local governments over its lifespan.

“Vikings’ advanced design sets the standard for safe and reliable solar-plus-storage configurations,” said Arevon CEO Kevin Smith. “The project incorporates solar panels, trackers, and batteries that showcase the growing strength of US renewable energy manufacturing.”

The project includes Tesla Megapack battery systems made in California, First Solar’s thin-film solar panels, and smart solar trackers from Nextracker. San Diego-based SOLV Energy handled the engineering, procurement, and construction work.

San Diego Community Power (SDCP) will buy the energy from the Vikings project under a long-term deal, helping power nearly 1 million customer accounts. SDCP and Arevon have also signed an agreement for the 200 MW Avocet Energy Storage Project in Carson, California, which will start construction in early 2025.

Vikings is named after the Holtville High School mascot, and Arevon is giving back to the local community by funding scholarships for deserving Holtville High students.

Arevon is a major renewable energy developer across the US and a key player in California, with nearly 2,500 MW in operation and more than 1,250 MW under construction.
