First, EcoFlow has continued its seasonal savings with its latest Power-up Your Spring Adventure sale that is offering up to 59% discounts on power stations – some continuing, some new – with plenty of low prices, multiple ways for extra savings, free gifts, and more. Among the offers, we spotted the brand’s DELTA 2 Max bundle with two 200W solar panels and a protective bag hitting a new $1,424 low. Right behind it is Heybike’s St. Paddy’s Day sale, which is adding new deals every few days and is currently offering popular bundles like the Ranger S Folding Fat Tire e-bike and $198 in free gear for $1,099. We also have an exclusive $2,900 in savings on the Mango Power E Portable Power Station that sports CATL battery cells hitting a new $899 low, as well as another collection of EGO Power+ lawncare tools, this time led by the 56V 26-inch Cordless Hedge Trimmer that has fallen to its $199 Amazon low. Plus, all the other hangover Green Deals are in the links at the bottom of the page, like yesterday’s massive $2,598+ launch savings on Anker’s new F3800 Plus Portable Power Station, Rad Power’s Spring e-bike Sale offers, and more.

EcoFlow shifts to Spring Sale’s second phase, increasing savings with new lows, free gear, more – all from $50

It seems EcoFlow’s spring savings are not finished yet, as the brand has switched over to its Power-up Your Spring Adventures sale through March 26 with up to 59% discounts across its power stations, some being continuing deals, while others are fresh additions – plus, there are plenty of bonus savings and free gifts. Among the returning offers, we spotted a new low price on the DELTA 2 Max Portable Power Station bundle with two 220W solar panels and a protective bag for $1,424.05 shipped, after using the exclusive code 25SSAFF5 at checkout for an additional 5% off. Coming further than ever off its usual $3,276 MSRP, we saw it during the previous spring offers only coming down to $1,519 (with the code). In this new iteration of the sale, it’s getting a larger $1,852 cut from its tag, landing it at a new all-time low.

Like we’ve seen previously, there are a few ways at extra savings during this sale, starting with the exclusive sitewide 5% off discount you’ll get with the code 25SSAFF5 at checkout. On top of that, you can also get an additional 3% off on orders over $2,000, which can be bumped up to 6% once you’ve reached an order total of $5,000 or more. The 2x EcoCredits promotion has been extended from a select few offers to the whole of the sale now while also still offering a free RAPID 20W GaN charger with a 60W cable on orders between $400 and $2,000. EcoFlow has added free Power Hats accompanying select offers, as well.

Your spring adventuring will be well supported with this EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max bundle, which provides you with a 2,048Wh LiFePO4 capacity to start, but can be invested into over time to expand up to 6,144Wh with the appropriate expansion batteries. Most of the appliances you’ll be relying on will be covered with 2,400W power output and 15 versatile port options, which you can ramp up to 3,400W output by activating its X-Boost mode. You can connected two solar inputs at once, up to its 1,000W maximum, giving you the means to charge via the sun – or you can gain an 80% battery with a standard outlet in 1.1 hours, which can drop to 43 minutes by using its dual AC and solar capabilities, among others.

Heybike Ranger S folding fat tire e-bike

Heybike’s St. Paddy’s Day Sale kicks off with $500 e-bike discounts and $198 in free gear starting from $999

Heybike is launching the first flash savings of its St. Paddy’s Day Sale that is slated to run through March 20 with up to $500 being taken off a selection of e-bikes along with including free gear. Among the bunch, we’re seeing the popular Ranger S Folding Fat Tire e-bike down at $1,099 shipped and coming with $198 in free gear. This package would normally cost you nearly $1,700 at full price, but the combined 35% markdown here is putting $598 back in your pocket while the limited savings last (the countdown clock states two days for this round at the time of writing this). Although we’ve seen the price go as low as $899 back during Black Friday, we haven’t seen it or its $999 flash-sale rates since, with this being the third-lowest price we have tracked and the only price we’ve seen so far in 2025.

Heybike’s Ranger S Folding e-bike is one of the brand’s most popular and best-selling models, and it’s not hard to argue why when it is so regularly down at these low rates. You have two options for motor sizes here, with the standard 750W rear hub motor (peaking at 1,400W) coming stock, which you can upgrade to its 1,000W counterpart (1,800W peak) for $200 more. Utilizing their five PAS levels, you’ll hit top speeds of 28 MPH with the standard motor (supported by a cadence sensor) and 32 MPH with the upgraded motor (supported by a torque sensor), while both house a 692Wh battery for up to 55 miles of travel on a single four-hour charge.

That faster charging time is thanks to the improved 4A charger that accompanies the e-bikes, which is twice as strong as the average chargers we usually see. Along with the included free large basket and front basket that has an iron bottom, you’ll also enjoy some quality stock features: a folding step-thru frame, a hydraulic front suspension fork, hydraulic disc brakes, an integrated rear cargo rack (which one of the baskets attach to), 20-inch fat tires with fenders over each, an LED headlight, an LED taillight with brake lighting, and a smart LCD display.

Heybike’s other St. Paddy’s Day flash e-bike offers:

  • Mars 2.0 Folding Fat-Tire e-bike: $999 (Reg. $1,499)
    • 28 MPH for up to 45 miles
    • 1,000W motor (32 MPH speed) costs $100 more
    • comes with free front basket and large basket
  • Cityrun Urban Commuter e-bike: $999 (Reg. $1,599)
    • 21 MPH for up to 55 miles
    • comes with free front basket and large basket
  • Horizon Full-Suspension e-bike: $1,399 (Reg. $1,999)
    • 28 MPH for 55 miles
    • comes with free front basket and large basket

    • comes with free large basket
Mango Power E portable power station

Save an exclusive $2,900 on the Mango Power E 3,500Wh station with CATL batteries while it’s at a new $899 low

Wellbots is giving 9to5Toys some exclusive savings on the Mango Power E Portable Power Station that drops the price to $899 shipped, after using the code 9TO5MANGO at checkout for an additional $600 off. Already down off its full $3,799 price tag, this is some serious savings we’re getting here, which starts already discounted to $1,499 that gets all the better with the bonus $600 we’ve scored for our readers. You’re looking at a massive 76% markdown that gives you back $2,900 in savings and drops things further than ever to a new all-time low, beating the former lowest price we can find by $415.

Mango’s Power E unit sports a slightly different build than we’re used to seeing in power stations, with CATL battery cells that are typically found in EVs from Mercedes Benz, Tesla, BMW, and more. It provides a 3,500Wh capacity that can expand to 7kWh with an extra battery or 14kWh with two – plus, its starting 3,000W output expands to 7,000W with the two extra battery setup. There are 16 output port options too: four ACs, six USB-As, two USB-Cs, two DCs, one car port, and a RV port. By pairing the station with the mSocket Pro accessory, it even becomes a split-phase generator capable of covering the power needs for larger heavy-consumption appliances like heaters, dryers, water pumps, and more.

There are a few different recharging methods to choose from, starting with a standard wall outlet that can reach an 80% battery in just one hour, while you can also connect up to its 2,000W solar input for charging via the sun’s rays, as well as a maximum 3,000W input for any generator you might have. It appears as though you can even apply for a 30% IRS tax credit once you have secured this device for yourself, according to the brand, only adding to your overall savings.

EGO Power+ 56V 26-inch cordless hedge trimmer

Get shrubbery back in shape with EGO’s 56V 26-inch cordless hedge trimmer at $199 Amazon low

We’re seeing some amazing EGO Power+ deals while the brand’s Power+ Savings event continues, with Amazon now offering the brand’s 56V 26-inch Cordless Hedge Trimmer for $199 shipped. Coming down off its usual $249 price tag, which it’s been keeping to since early June’s fall to the same rate, this is the first savings we’ve seen on this popular model in 10 months. The deal here comes in the form of a 20% markdown that saves you $50 off the going rate, dropping costs back to the lowest price we have tracked on Amazon.

Spring cleaning isn’t just about clearing out the dust that has gathered inside your home, but also getting your outdoor spaces back into shape – including your hedges and shrubbery. You’ll have a reliable means to shape up those unruly plants with EGO’s 26-inch cordless hedge trimmer, which comes with a 2.5Ah battery for 60 minutes of continuous use. The dual-action blades will make cuts at up to 3,400 strokes per minute, with a five-position, 180-degree rotating handle for effortless control and comfort. There’s no need for concern about getting caught in April’s coming showers either, as the IPX4 build helps protect it from sudden weather changes while you’re working.

Other notable EGO garden care deals:

If you’ve been looking for a new riding mower, we’re seeing a bunch of low prices across EGO’s lineup of models right now, starting with the T6 56V 42-inch Cordless Riding Lawn Tractor that has fallen to a new $3,499 low, along with the brand’s zero-turn models in the same post. If you’d prefer a more standard push mower, you’ll still find the 56V 21-inch Cordless Self-Propelled mower that comes with two 6.0Ah batteries for a 100-minute runtime down at its $700 low.

Honda launches 2025 Prologue deals: Here's how you can snag some savings

Honda-2025-Prologue-deals

Honda’s electric SUV took the US by storm, becoming the top-selling EV in the US outside of Tesla in the final three months of 2024. This year, Honda is making the Prologue even more attractive, upgrading it with over 300 miles of range. With 2025 Prologue models now arriving at dealerships, Honda wasted no time launching new deals this week.

2025 Honda Prologue EV deals and offers

After the first models were delivered last March, the Honda Prologue quickly became one of the best-selling electric vehicles in the US.

In the second half of 2024, the Prologue was the second best-selling electric SUV, trailing only the Tesla Model Y. This year, it boasts even more driving range and power.

Since Honda didn’t raise prices, it’s essentially a free upgrade (well, sort of). The 2025 Honda Prologue (2WD) now has a “top-class” EPA rating of 308 miles, up 12 miles from the outgoing model. It also packs 220 horsepower (+8) and 243 lb-ft of torque (+7).

The Prologue is still available in single-motor (2WD) and dual-motor (AWD) versions in three trims: EX, Touring, and Elite.

The AWD version now has a range of 294 miles (+13) for the EX and Touring trims and 283 miles (+10) for the Elite. It also now packs 300 horsepower (+12) and 355 lb-ft of torque (+25).

With DC fast charging speeds of up to 150 kW, the electric SUV can add 65 miles of range in around 10 minutes.

The 2025 Honda Prologue starts at $47,400, but with the $7,500 EV tax credit, prices could fall to under $40,000. And that’s for the EX single-motor version with up to 308 miles of range.

On Honda’s website, the 2025 Prologue is listed with a promotional rate of 2.99% APR for up to 60 months. Lease prices for the base model are not yet available, but the 2025 AWD EX is listed at $599 for 36 months with $4,299 due at signing.

Although the deals on the 2025 models are not nearly as good as the 0% financing and leases as low as $269 per month for the 2024 Prologue, Honda had to make up for the upgrades somewhere.

Trim Drive Configuration Pricing EPA Ratings
MSRP After Federal EV Tax Credit Plus $1,450

EX Single Motor (2WD) $47,400 $39,900 $41,350 308 113 / 94 / 104
EX Dual Motor (AWD) $50,400 $42,900 $44,350 294 108 / 90 / 99
Touring Single Motor (2WD) $51,700 $44,200 $45,650 308 113 / 94 / 104

Honda is sweetening the deal with a charging package included in the Prologue’s price. You can choose from a free Level 2 home charger, a portable charging kit, or a $750 public charging credit.

The 2024 Honda Prologue is selling out fast with ultra-low lease and financing rates, while the 2025 model promises even more. Ready to try it out for yourself? You can use our link to find deals on the 2024 and 2025 Honda Prologue in your area today.

Block bets on lending expansion after stock slump

Block bets on lending expansion after stock slump

With its stock down more than 30% this year and revenue growth slowing, Jack Dorsey’s Block is going bigger in lending.

The company on Thursday said it secured approval from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to originate loans through its banking subsidiary, Square Financial Services, allowing it to offer small-dollar consumer loans directly rather than relying on external banking partners.

It’s an expansion of Cash App Borrow, the company’s short-term lending product. But it comes at a time of increased concerns surrounding consumer credit, with President Trump’s expansive tariffs and widespread government job cuts raising talk of a potential recession.

Transaction losses in Block’s lending segment jumped 39% last quarter, and while the company claims its underwriting model is strong, small-dollar lending is inherently risky.

“Cash App Borrow is designed to provide short-term cash flow in a simple and accessible way when alternatives are notoriously expensive and difficult for consumers to navigate,” Block said in the press release. The company added that the average Cash App Borrow loan was under $100 and about a month in duration.

Block didn’t immediately provide a comment.

In getting approval to operate the lending business out of its own bank, Block says it will be able to offer the product nationwide.

Last month, Block reported quarterly results that missed Wall Street expectations, with revenue growing just 4.5% from a year earlier. The stock plunged 18%, its worst one-day drop since 2020.

Around the same time, Block rolled out Afterpay, its buy now, pay later product, on the Cash App card. Chief Financial Officer Amrita Ahuja told CNBC that the launch aimed to provide customers with more credit options, and positioned Cash App as a banking alternative for some customers. Block acquired Afterpay, which competes with Affirm, for $29 billion in early 2022.

Also this week, Block announced a big investment plan in artificial intelligence.

The company said on Wednesday that it will deploy Nvidia’s AI systems with its latest Blackwell chips to power open-source AI research. Block didn’t say what specifically it’s looking to achieve through its AI buildout, but noted in the press release that it will “start exploring novel solutions for our customers.”

Kia's first electric van looks even better in person [Video]

Kia's-first-electric-van-PV5

Kia is launching its first electric van, the PV5, later this year. If you liked how it looked in pictures, wait until you see it in real life. A production PV5 was spotted in Korea for the first time, giving us a closer look at the futuristic van. See it for yourself in the video below.

Kia’s first electric van spotted in Korea

After teasing it for what seemed like forever, Kia finally took the sheets off the PV5 at its 2025 EV Day event last month.

With its hard-to-miss futuristic design, the PV5 is a near replica of the concept shown at CES last January. The mid-size electric van is set to kick off Kia’s new Platform Beyond Vehicle (PBV) strategy.

The PV5 will initially be available in Passenger, Cargo, and Chassis Cab setups, but with “unprecedented flexibility,” you can expect to see more options soon. Two of the first will be the PV5 Crew, with additional cargo securing options and a Wheelchair-Accessible Vehicle (WAV) version.

After that, Kia will follow it up with Drop Side, Box Van, Freezer, Box, and Prime variations. It plans to launch a Light Camper conversion.

With sales kicking off in the second half of 2025, Kia’s electric van was spotted in Korea for the first time without camouflage. A new video from HealerTV gives us a better idea of what to expect when the PV5 hits dealerships later this year.

The PV5 maintains its techy, almost ahead-of-its-time design. Two exterior body colors were shown: white and a darker grey or black. As the reporter notes, it actually looks like an upgrade from the concept.

Kia did what it could at the back so it didn’t look like a bus, giving it more of a rounded overall shape. You can see how it stands apart from most MPVs you see today.

Like the Volkswagen ID.Buzz, Kia’s PV5 looks more like a minibus. At 4,695 mm long, 1,895 mm wide, and 1,899 mm tall, Kia’s passenger electric van is slightly smaller than the European ID.Buzz model (4,712 mm long, 1,985 mm wide, 1,937 mm tall).

It will be available with 51.5 kWh and 71.2 kWh battery packs, good for up to 400 km (249 miles) WLTP range. The PV5 can also fast charge (10% to 80%) in about 30 minutes. In comparison, powered by an 84 kWh battery, the ID.Buzz now offers up to 293 miles WLTP range.

Kia will launch sales in Korea and Europe later this year, followed by other global markets in 2026. Pre-orders will open soon, so check back for prices.
