EcoFlow’s New Year phase 2 deals see DELTA 2 Max solar generator with two 220W panels and bag hit $1,472

We’re out of 2025’s gates and EcoFlow is switching over to phase 2 of its ongoing New Year sale through January 19, with new site-exclusive deals, with the free gifts being traded for extra savings at certain cart thresholds. We’ve spotted some first-time offers today, like the brand’s DELTA 2 Max Portable Power Station that is coming along with two 220W solar panels and a protective bag for $1,471.55 shipped, after using the continued sitewide coupon 25NYAFF5 at checkout for an extra 5% off. This travel-ready package is seeing $1,804 cut from its $3,276 full price, setting the bar for future discounts. We have seen this solar generator combo without the transport bag being offered for $1,659 back during EcoFlow’s Prime Day sale, but you’re getting the bag added in at $187 lower – making this New Year deal all the sweeter.

During this next phase of EcoFlow’s New Year sale, members will continue receiving 2x EcoCredits on select offers, which you can redeem for added savings at checkout. The savings don’t stop there, as all customers will benefit from the extra 5% off on orders over $2,000, as well as the extra 7% being taken off orders over $5,000.

EcoFlow’s DELTA 2 Max power station provides you with plenty of juice for out-of-the-house adventures, as well as home backup support in times of emergency. The 2,048Wh LiFePO4 capacity here can be further invested in to expand up to 6,144Wh with additional extra batteries. Its 2,400W power output should handle most of your appliance needs through its 15 port options, though you can always activate its X-Boost mode to bump that to 3,400W output for larger ones. It allows for two solar inputs to be hooked up to reach a maximum of 1,000W for recharging, or you can take advantage of its dual-charging capabilities using solar alongside a standard wall outlet for 80% battery in 43 minutes, among other options.

***Note: The prices below have not had the additional 5% sitewide coupon or the extra 5%/7% savings factored in, be sure to use the code 25NYAFF5 at checkout to maximize savings on orders under $2,000!

LG washer/dryer for easier laundry

Save $1,000 on LG’s all-in-one electric ventless washer/dryer combo with inverter heat pump at $1,999

LG is offering its All-in-One 5.0 Cubic-Foot Electric Ventless Washer/Dryer Combo for $1,999 shipped. Usually going for $2,999 direct from the brand, with higher starting rates elsewhere, this is the second-lowest price we have seen on this eco-conscious and efficient model, only beaten out by July 4th sale when it dropped to $1,500 for a short period. Today’s deal saves you $1,000, which you can use to further invest in other home upgrades or treat yourself. You can also find it at Best Buy for $2,000 at the moment, with bonus savings up to $1,000 when buying multiple appliances together.

LG’s ENERGY STAR-certified all-in-one washer/dryer combo brings intelligent functionality into your life for easier living and far less hassles during laundry duties. Alongside the obvious smart controls you’ll gain through the app, its been given a built-in smart system that can detect what fabrics you throw inside and just how soiled they may be, with the system then adjusting its own settings to give them the optimal wash. This lets you save some memory space from having to memorize what cycles and settings are best for your clothes and fabrics.

There are two notable features here above the rest, the first being the ventless design that lets you install it anywhere on top of the inverter heat pump tech increasing efficiency “using up to 60% less energy with every load ”over other models. The second standout is the ezDispense reservoir that offers enough capacity to dish out up to 31 loads of detergent, with an option to split things between detergent and fabric softener. There are some accessories available to expand its capabilities, like the pedestal washer or the storage drawer, which you can find on the same page.

EGO Power+ 56V 21-inch snow blower

EGO Power+ 56V cordless snow blower with two 5.0Ah batteries hits best price in years at $549

Amazon is helping with snow-clearing responsibilities by offering the EGO Power+ 56V 21-Inch Cordless Snow Blower with two 5.0Ah batteries for $549 shipped. This model with this combination of batteries usually fetches $700 in full, and has seen very few discounts over the last year compared with the 4.0Ah battery package that usually sees most of the savings attention. You can grab one for your household or business with a 22% markdown here, saving you $151 off the going rate at the best price on Amazon in the last few years.

Bigger and more heavy-duty than other budget models, this 56V snow blower from EGO Power+ utilizes a brushless motor to clear out a 21-inch wide path through piling snow, tossing it up to 35 feet out of the way. The two 5.0Ah batteries gives you plenty of juice to clear up to 8-inch high snow from a 10-car driveway on a single charge, with a variable speed control for improved handling and two bright LED headlights for increased visibility at the top and bottom of the day. It also starts up at the push of a button, making pull strings a thing of the past – especially considering having to deal with them in cold weather, which is never pleasant when they act up.

Heybike Mars 2.0 Folding e-bike

Kickstart 2025 adventures with Heybike’s Mars 2.0 e-bike at $999 with free bonus gear in New Year sale (Save $500)

Normally carrying a $1,499 price tag, this e-bike mostly sees sales take things down to $1,099, with occasional drops lower to $999 while its Black Friday sales saw it go as low as $899. You can gear up today with a $500 markdown that knocks the price to its second-lowest rate that we have tracked, with you also getting both a free front basket and larger rear basket along with your purchase.

A popular means for aspiring riders to step into the e-bike market without shelling out huge amounts of money, the Heybike Mars 2.0 e-bike provides you with a commuter that tops out at 28 MPH speeds for a solid 45 miles of travel on one full charge.

U.S. and Britain to sign flurry of major nuclear power deals during Trump’s state visit

U.S. and Britain to sign flurry of major nuclear power deals during Trump’s state visit

The U.S. and U.K are expected to sign a flurry of major new deals during U.S. President Donald Trump‘s state visit to Britain this week, seeking to kickstart a “golden age” of nuclear power.

Some of the multi-billion-pound agreements set to be inked include plans by U.S. and U.K. companies to build up to 12 advanced new modular reactors in Hartlepool, a port town in northeast England, and a push to develop data centers powered by small modular reactors (SMRs) in Nottinghamshire.

The cross-Atlantic partnership is hoped to generate thousands of jobs, speed up the process of building new nuclear power stations and unlock billions in private investment.

U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Monday said the two countries were “building a golden age of nuclear” that would put them “at the forefront of global innovation and investment.”

The deal announcement reaffirms both the U.S. and U.K.’s embrace of nuclear power, particularly when it comes to fueling the energy-intensive data centers needed to train and run massive artificial intelligence tools.

X-Energy, a U.S.-based company aiming to develop high-tech nuclear plants, and British Gas owner Centrica said the Hartlepool plans would generate enough power for up to 1.5 million homes and create up to 2,500 jobs.

The companies also estimate the overall program could deliver at least £40 billion ($54.25 billion) in economic value.

U.S.-based Holtec meanwhile said plans to build advanced data centers powered by SMRs in Nottinghamshire would be worth around £11 billion. The project is set to be jointly developed by Holtec, EDF and Tritax.

SMRs promise to have smaller and lighter footprints than traditional power plants, potentially making them cheaper and quicker to build when they are fully commercialized.

Amazon and Google both signed deals last year to develop SMRs in the U.S., as tech giants increasingly turn to nuclear power to fulfill the growing energy demands of data centers.

‘A true nuclear renaissance’

Some of the other deals expected to be signed as part of the agreement, known as the Atlantic Partnership for Advanced Nuclear Energy, include plans to establish the world’s first micro modular nuclear power plant.

“With President Trump’s leadership, the United States is ushering in a true nuclear renaissance – harnessing the power of commercial nuclear to meet rising energy demand and fuel the AI revolution,” U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright said on Monday.

As it is low-carbon, advocates argue that nuclear power has the potential to play a significant role in helping countries generate electricity while slashing emissions and reducing their reliance on fossil fuels.

Some environmental groups, however, warn that the nuclear industry is an expensive and harmful distraction from cheaper and cleaner alternatives.

E-quipment highlight: Greenworks 60V cordless electric chainsaw

E-quipment highlight: Greenworks 60V cordless electric chainsaw

Clear storm debris with Greenworks’ 60V 16-inch cordless chainsaw kit at $190 annual low (Reg. up to $300)

Greenworks’ latest 60V cordless chainsaw delivers performance that rivals many gas models, but without the harmful emissions or annoying pull cord. Whether dropping saplings, pruning thick limbs, or clearing up trails after a storm, this battery-powered tool is ready to work.

First released at last year’s CES show in Las Vegas, Greenworks’ 60V li-ion battery packs enough power for 100 clean cuts of the saw’s 16″ blade, and its lightweight, 12.5 lb. frame, tool-less chain tensioner, and automatic oiling system come together for convenient maintenance and easy-to-control power.

When it’s time to get to work, the chainsaw’s brushless electric motor can spin the chain at more than 10,000 rpm with (the company claims) about 20% more torque than a 42cc gas chainsaw for fast, confident cuts through hard woods while keeping noise and vibration to a minimum.

That low-noise and fume-free operation makes Greenworks’ chainsaws an upgrade for both the operator and the neighborhood.

Greenworks’ 60- and 80-volt batteries aren’t just for chainsaws, either. Greenworks’ batteries can power more than 75 indoor and outdoor products – including hedge trimmers, leaf blowers, even riding lawn mowers, and the STEALTH fat-tire electric mini-motorcycle that made its debut earlier this year.

“Greenworks is proud to offer comprehensive battery-powered solutions for everyone, from homeowners and outdoor enthusiasts to major commercial landscaping contractors,” Klaus Hahn, Greenworks’ President, explained at its launch. “These innovations further our company’s vision of building a more powerful future with clean energy, and they illustrate our tagline ‘Life. Powered. By Greenworks.’”

Greenworks 60V chainsaw specs

  • up to 100 cuts on a single charge with the included 2.5Ah battery on 4×4 wood
  • 20% more torque and faster cutting than a 42cc gas chainsaw
  • no prime, no choke, no pull with no aggravating pull cord
  • 2.0 kW (2.7 hp) max output
  • brushless motor provides more power, longer run-times, and extended life​

The Greenworks 60V 16″ brushless cordless chainsaw, a 2.5Ah battery, and charger are available online for $299.99 – but it’s on sale for “just” $189.99 (or $192.49, with the 18″ arm) on Amazon through September 18th.

If you needed another reason to check it out, the company claims using the electric chainsaw instead of a gas unit saves as much carbon emissions as driving 11,000 miles.

107 global partners back XCMG push to electrify the mining industry

107 global partners back XCMG push to electrify the mining industry

XCMG unveils global zero-carbon mining declaration with 107 partners

Heavy mineral and metals mining is one of the dirtiest industries on the planet, but Chinese equipment giant XCMG doesn’t think it has to stay that way. To prove it, the company has unveiled a sweeping pledge to electrify and decarbonize mining — and they’re dragging over 100 global partners with them.

Along with with 107 global industry partners from 26 countries, Chinese equipment brand XCMG has issued a Joint Declaration on Global Zero-Carbon Smart Mining, aiming to electrify, automate, and otherwise decarbonize international mining. The pledge addresses 12 key areas including electrification, autonomous operation, net-zero emissions, circular economy, technology sharing, international cooperation, and smarter maintenance strategies.

“As a global leader in zero-carbon smart mining solutions, XCMG is committed to addressing industry bottlenecks through integrating new energy equipment, intelligent control systems and full-lifecycle services,” said Yang Dongsheng, chairman of XCMG Group. “We have resolved the four core challenges of energy infrastructure, new energy equipment portfolios, smart mining management systems and financial support, aiming to help our customers achieving both business growth and environmental wins.”

It’s always great to see efforts like this to decarbonize. But those efforts mean millions of new equipment assets to replace the millions of existing diesel assets deployed currently.

As luck would have it, XCMG is perfectly positioned to offer those zero-emissions equipment assets. The company says it has, “the complete mining equipment solutions for open-pit and underground mines, as well as its smart construction ecosystem.”

XCMG will sell you the future, today

Multinational mining companies like Fortescue are saving up to $400 million per year on fuel costs alone with the few assets its electrified (or repowered) already, there are more than environmental reasons to push for a coalition like this — especially if you’re XCMG, whose BYD-developed battery swap technology puts them a step or three ahead of even the excellent equipment options from Volvo CE.

With a strong hand in the autonomous haul truck race and ultra-competitive pricing to back their electric plays, it seems like XCMG is about to get serious as it expands its reach into the Western world. It’s no wonder the legacy brands are running scared and hiding behind the bogus “messy middle” propaganda!
