Leading today’s Green Deals is EcoFlow’s second phase of Game Day Power sale deals, with increased savings up to $3,398, including continuing 15% accessory discounts, new offers, and the 5% in extra savings switching to a threshold minimum. One of the newly added offers is the brand’s DELTA Pro Portable Power Station bundled alongside a smart extra battery and a transfer switch for home breaker backup for $3,499. We also have an appliance sale from Samsung that has dropped the Bespoke AI Laundry Combo All-in-One Washer and Ventless Heat Pump Dryer to $1,999, among other models, with up to $648 in additional saving options. Lastly, we spotted Greenworks’ 60V 42-inch CrossoverT Cordless Electric Riding Lawn Mower coming with a larger bundle package of six 8.0Ah batteries and the 42-inch Bin Bagger accessory for a $4,300 low. Plus, all the other hangover Green Deals are in the links at the bottom of the page, like yesterday’s Lectric Valentine’s Day e-bike bundle offers, Bluetti’s limited-time flash sale, and more.

EcoFlow increases savings up to $3,398 and more in phase 2 of Game Day Power sale – deals start from $170

EcoFlow has switched over its Game Day Power sale into its second phase through February 9, with savings on power stations and bundle packages increasing up to $3,398, including new offers – with the sale’s bonus savings also changing (discussed further below). Of these two new flash offers joining the lineup, the most notable is EcoFlow’s DELTA Pro Portable Power Station bundled with a smart extra battery and a transfer switch for $3,499 shipped. Normally costing you $6,498, we’ve seen this particular combo rarely pop up, with August having seen the lowest rate of $3,696 during a similar sale. Today, you can score this home backup solution at a 46% markdown, saving you $2,999 off the going rate at the lowest price we have tracked. Over at Amazon, we can only find the station and the battery bundled together, with it sitting $100 higher than the price here.

As I mentioned, there’s some change-ups with the bonus savings during the second phase of EcoFlow’s Game Day Power sale. To start, the 15% accessory discounts are continuing as they were in phase 1, while members will now be getting a slightly reduced 2x EcoCredits, but on all purchases, not just those featured on the main page. The extra 5% in savings has now been given a price threshold of over $3,000, which will be automatically applied in cart – and sadly doesn’t apply to the above flash sale offer.

This EcoFlow DELTA Pro bundle is a perfect balance for out of the house trips while also being equipped with all it needs to backup your home during sudden power outages. To start, the power station alone provides a 3,600Wh LiFePO4 capacity with a 3,600W output (surging to 4,500W thanks to the X-boost tech) through its 14 port options. With the smart extra battery included, that capacity is doubled to 7,200Wh and can be further expanded all the way to 25kWh with additional equipment.

The power station’s own battery takes just 1.8 hours to recharge to full when plugged into a wall outlet (So expect about twice that time for both it and the extra battery to refill), while connecting its maximum 1,600W of solar input should get the same result in 2.8 hours (again, for the power station alone). And as always, you’ll find the usual array of remote smart controls here, all accessed through the app via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. If you want to utilize it for more solar generator needs over home backup, I recommend the bundle for the power station with two 220W panels and a protective bag for $2,499 shipped, which beats starting your journey by getting just the power station alone at $300 less the price.

***Note. The 5% threshold discount, as well as the 15% accessory discount, have been factored into prices for the first time for all offers over $3,000 (and accessories) and is automatically applied in your cart. Reminder: the extra savings don’t include the flash sale offers.

Samsung AI Laundry Combo

Samsung’s Bespoke AI Laundry Combo all-in-one washer/ventless heat pump dryer is down at $1,999 + $648 in bonus savings

Samsung is offering folks a great chance at upgrading your laundry room with its Bespoke AI Laundry Combo All-in-One 5.3 cubic-foot Washer and Ventless Heat Pump Dryer at $1,999 shipped with up to $673 in additional savings too. You’d normally have to shell out $3,324 for this unit at full price, with most of last year’s discounts averaging around $2,199, while we saw it fall as low as $1,899 direct from Samsung’s Black Friday sale while Best Buy dropped things as low as $1,700. You can grab it here today at the third-lowest price overall and the second-lowest coming from the manufacturer thanks to the 40% markdown here, giving you $1,325 in initial savings (more on the bonus savings below). If you want to save a bit more, there is an open-box option in excellent condition on the same page for $1,599. This is the lowest current price we can find, with Best Buy offering it at $1 higher.

Before we get into the washer/dryer’s performance capabilities, let’s go over the bonus savings you can currently take advantage of direct from Samsung. First, there is the usual free installation (normally $25) alongside the two-year Samsung Care+ plan for just $1 (normally $149). Next, the brand is offering a special promotion for the units on this landing page here (including the washer/dryer), which gives you $100 off when you buy two appliances together, $250 off when buying three, and $500 off when buying four or more.

Samsung’s Bespoke AI Laundry Combo comes ENERGY STAR-certified with AI supporting you through settings management and also increasing its energy efficiency by identifying and adjusting settings based on the different fabrics you place inside and how soiled they are. The AI also pairs with the dual-inverter heat pump, calculating and estimating your electricity costs to “reduce energy usage by up to 19%.” There’s also the ventless design, which allows you to place it virtually anywhere, no longer needing to be next to a dedicate exhaust vent.

The detergent tank here sports a much larger capacity, holding up to 47 loads worth of detergent so you don’t have to regularly worry about filling and refilling in between laundry loads – plus, it also has a Flex One compartment that takes that convenience to the next level as it can be split between 25 loads of detergent and 34 loads of softener. It’s also been given self-cleaning and self-drying tech to keep laundry coming out fresh, smart controls via the SmartThings app (as well as hands-free voice controls), the EPA’s seal of approval, and much more.

And of course, the biggest news surrounding Samsung right now is its new Galaxy S25 smartphones that are still open for preorder with up to $1,250 in savings while also coming with FREE Galaxy 3 Buds Pro and an exclusive $50 credit by using our links – find out how to score yours at $400 or less in our coverage here.

Greenworks 60V 42-inch CrossoverT Riding Lawn Mower

Cover 2.5 acres on Greenworks’ CrossoverT 60V riding mower with six 8.0Ah batteries and bin bagger for $4,300 low

Greenworks is offering the best rate we’ve seen on its 60V 42-inch CrossoverT Cordless Electric Riding Lawn Mower that comes with six 8.0Ah batteries and the 42-inch Bin Bagger for $4,299.98 shipped. This complete package usually sits at a $5,100 full price, with this being one of the rare discounts hitting this bundle with two additional 8.0Ah batteries (over the usual four that is more frequently cut down in price) as well as the Bin Bagger accessory too. You’ll be saving $800 off the going rate while these savings last, giving you a reliable electric riding mower at its all-time lowest price that we have tracked. You won’t find this bundle at other retailers either – with only an option for the mower with four 8.0Ah batteries at $4,297 from Amazon, while Best Buy currently offers it with six 4.0Ah batteries and the Bin Bagger for $5,600.

The Greenworks CrossoverT riding mower arrives ready to tackle up to 2.5 acres of land with its six 8.0Ah batteries, which take 90 minutes to charge with the included three dual port chargers. Sitting atop a 42-inch reinforced 13-gauge steel cutting deck that boasts an IPX4 waterproof rating, this mower comes equipped with three 60V intelligent TRUBRUSHLESS motors, the equivalent of a 24 horse-power gas motor, that can handle hills and inclines up to a 15-degree slope at a maximum speed of 6 MPH. You have seven cutting height settings to choose from, ranging from 1.5 inches to 4.5 inches. Not only can you bag your clippings, but it also offers you the options to discharge or mulch them as well.

While the mower itself sports an onboard bin storage for up to 200 pounds of clippings, with the additional Bin Bagger accessory, you’ll be getting an extra 6-bushel capacity for even more effective clipping collection, especially if you’re using it for multi-acre yards. Greenworks also offers a tip on how to gain virtually endless runtime – just keep three of its batteries in the mower while the other three charge (one per every dual-port charger). You can browse all the CrossoverT packages on the landing page here, or check out the full lineup of the upgraded zero-turn riding mowers here.

No one knows how NYC’s 15 mph e-bike speed limit will even work

No one knows how NYC's 15 mph e-bike speed limit will even work

In his latest crackdown on e-bike riders, New York City Mayor Eric Adams is pushing for a new citywide e-bike speed limit of 15 mph (25 km/h), despite the fact that no one seems to know how it would actually be enforced.

The proposal, introduced last month as part of a broader package aimed at improving safety on city streets, would make it illegal to ride an e-bike over 15 mph. But experts, advocates, and even city officials are scratching their heads about how the rule would work in practice.

Most consumer e-bikes are already sold with speed limits in place: 20 mph (32 km/h) for throttle assist and 28 mph (45 km/) for pedal assist, per classifications used in the majority of states in the US. Yet those limits are controlled by the bike’s electronics, not by any city infrastructure.

According to reporting by Hell Gate NYC, even the Mayor’s own office couldn’t explain what the enforcement mechanism would look like, and no single agency has so far been put in charge of enforcing the speed limit. Will the city mandate software modifications such as those that limit Class 3 e-bikes to 25 mph (40 km/h) in NYC? Would they rely on radar guns like traditional speeding enforcement for cars? Install speed cameras that can identify bikes? So far, there are no answers.

Citi Bike has already reduced its electric bicycle fleet’s speed limits to 15 mph, but that only impacts shared e-bikes used in the city. Complicating matters further is the fact that most delivery riders – who are clearly the unspoken target of this policy – don’t use mainstream e-bikes from the major manufacturers, or even those that can accept firmware updates to adjust speed and power. Many of them ride inexpensive, sometimes heavily modified throttle bikes purchased online or from bike shops like FLY that cater to these types of riders. Such e-bikes often lack more sophisticated software speed-limiting features, and few, if any, have any form of digital connectivity that could allow for remote speed capping.

City transportation experts note that enforcement of speed limits on e-bikes is nearly impossible without clocking and stopping each rider. Unlike cars, bikes don’t have license plates. And even if a bike is capable of going faster than 15 mph, it doesn’t mean the rider is actually breaking the law – unless caught in the act. Nearly every car in NYC can likely push close to or past 100 mph (160 km/h), despite the city wide’s vehicular speed limit of just 25 mph. Advocates have also questioned the wisdom of focusing on e-bike speed while car crashes continue to injure and kill far more people.

Range Rover’s electric SUV won’t launch this year after a surprise delay, but there’s more

Range Rover's electric SUV won't launch this year after a surprise delay, but there's more

Range-Rover-Electric-delayed

Range Rover’s first EV was initially scheduled to arrive later this year, but that won’t be the case. JLR has delayed the launch of the Range Rover Electric after telling customers they will have to wait a little longer. However, that may not be the only EV JLR is delaying.

Range Rover Electric and Jaguar EVs are being delayed

Although the electric SUV was originally due to hit showrooms in late 2025, it’s now being pushed back until next year.

The British automaker claimed it needed more time for testing while it waited for stronger demand. However, there’s more to the story. According to The Guardian, Jaguar Land Rover wrote to clients waiting for the Range Rover Electric, telling them deliveries will not start until 2026.

Sources close to the matter said the delay could also impact two Jaguar EV models, including the radical blue-and-pink Type 00 Concept. Jaguar’s electric vehicles are expected to be delayed by several months.

The news comes after JLR announced plans to cut up to 500 management positions in the UK this week. Britain’s largest carmaker was hit hard by the Trump Administration’s new auto tariffs.

JLR’s sales plunged over 15% in the previous quarter after the company was forced to temporarily halt shipments to the US.

A company spokesperson confirmed that “By 2030 JLR will sell electric versions of all its luxury brands,” adding “we will launch our new models at the right time for our clients, our business and individual markets.”

Jaguar's-controversial-EV-debut

Range Rover’s first electric SUV has secured over 61,000 customers on the waiting list. JLR claims it’s currently undergoing “the most intensive testing any Range Rover vehicle has ever endured.”

An electric version of the Velar is due for a radical new look. It’s scheduled for production in April 2026, but that could also be delayed. An electric Defender is due out in early 2027.

Meanwhile, production on Jaguar’s new EV, its first since the I-PACE, is set to begin in August 2026. Jaguar’s electric GT is expected to cost over £100,000 ($135,000) as part of its brand revamp. Its second EV may not launch until December 2027 now.
