Headlining today’s Green Deals is Jackery’s Home Improvement Sale, which is continuing its previous flash sale offers alongside new additions, one of which being the Explorer 3000 Pro solar generator bundle with a 500W panel at its $1,999 low – plus, continuing free gifts on the brand’s newest Explorer 5000 Plus and its bundles, and more. We also have the unexpected price cut on Lectric’s XPeak 2.0 Off-Road Long-range e-bikes to a new $1,579 low, while also coming with $336 in free gear during the brand’s latest sale, as well as EGO’s 56V 765 CFM Cordless Leaf Blower with 5.0Ah and 2.5Ah batteries down at $330. Bringing up the rear is Govee’s Smart Electric Composter which has dropped down to $305. Plus, all the other hangover Green Deals are in the links at the bottom of the page, like yesterday’s latest sales from Lectric, Segway, Aventon, and more.

Jackery’s Explorer 3000 Pro comes with 500W solar panel at $1,999 low in Home Improvement Sale

Jackery has switched over to its Home Improvement Sale through March 28 with up to 50% discounts on new offers added alongside the previous flash sale offers, many of which are dropping further in price. One notable ongoing deal for the second time is Jackery’s Explorer 3000 Pro Portable Power Station bundled alongside a 500W solar panel for $1,999 shipped. This new package would normally run you $3,999 at full price, which we saw brought down to today’s rate only a few days ago for the first time, which is continuing in this longer-form sale. We did see a similar bundle with two 200W panels two weeks ago among the brand’s spring sale savings hitting $1,994, so considering you’re getting an extra 100W of solar input here for just $5 more (in the form of its newest solar panel model to boot), this deal is looking all the better. This is a 50% markdown we’re seeing, cutting $2,000 off the going rate and officially marking its current all-time low, which you won’t find at Amazon either.

If you’re dusting off your camping gear – especially if it includes an RV – or even preparing for any home backup emergency needs, Jackery’s Explorer 3000 Pro is a larger and more versatile option to cover all your bases. It starts with a sizeable 3,024Wh battery capacity, delivering up to 3,000W of power output that can surge to 6,000W for larger appliances. With 10 output port options, one of which is an RV-dedicated TT30 port, this is one of the brand’s few and best options for motor home living alongside the Explorer 2000 Plus and Explorer 5000 Plus – both of which come as modular and expandable options (see their deals below).

Recharging for the Explorer 3000 Pro takes just about 2.4 hours when plugged into a wall outlet, or it sports a maximum 1,200W of solar input that can push the battery back to full in three to four hours (so around twice as long for this bundle combo we’re seeing here). It also provides the option for connecting to your car if you’re desperate, recharging back to full in about 35 hours.

***Note: One thing we’re seeing continue from the previous flash sale is the inclusion of a free Explorer 100 Plus 99Wh LiFePO4 power station along with your purchase of the Explorer 5000 Plus station and its bundle packages. Some of these deals are matching at Amazon, though keep in mind that they won’t give you the free gift there.

Lectric XPeak 2.0 off-road long-range e-bike

Lectric’s XPeak 2.0 off-road long-range e-bikes with 80-mile range and $336 in free gear fall to new $1,579 low

Popping our head back into Lectric’s ongoing Nothin’ But Net Sale, which is offering up to $762 in free gear along with e-bike purchases, we spotted a price cut on the brand’s XPeak 2.0 Off-Road Long-Range e-bikes to $1,579 shipped along with $336 in free gear. Originally priced at $1,699 since launching in November, this is the first time we’ve seen a price cut on one of the brand’s newest models, with the bundle here normally costing you $1,915 ($2,035 at original pricing), marking a new all-time low. Along with your purchase, you’ll also be getting a rear cargo rack, fenders over both tires, an Elite headlight, and a suspension seat post. Head below for more details on this model, as well as the rest of the sale’s lineup of deals.

Lectric’s XPeak 2.0 Long-Range e-bikes sport significant upgrades from its predecessor, like the addition of a new torque sensor that pairs with the brand’s PWR+ tech for more responsive PAS support for up to 80 miles of travel thanks to the improved 20Ah battery. It also has the 750W Stealth M24 rear hub-motor (peaking at 1,310W) that provides riders with top speeds of 28 MPH, when permitted by your local laws. You can also find the standard XPeak 2.0 e-bikes with a 60-mile travel range at $1,399 shipped and coming with $316 in free gear.

All of the XPeak 2.0 models come with notable structural upgrades too, like the new hydroformed aluminum frame, a higher-end RST Renegade front suspension fork, lock-on hand grips, a larger 203 mm front disc for the hydraulic mineral oil brakes, and a new color LCD display. There’s plenty of continuing stock features from its previous generation too, including a Shimano 8-speed Altus derailleur, puncture-resistant off-road tires, a throttle for pure electric riding (though this decreases mileage), removable pedals, accessory mounting points, and hidden cable routing, as well as all the add-on accessories you’ll get from the bundle.

Be sure to checkout the full lineup of deals from Lectric’s sale in our original coverage here, especially the exclusive Nothin’ But Net cargo packages on the brand’s XP 3.0 e-bikes.

EGO Power+ 56V 765 CFM cordless leaf blower

Grab EGO’s 56V 765 CFM cordless electric leaf blower with 5.0Ah and 2.5Ah batteries at $330

EGO’s Power+ Savings event is still going, with tons of ongoing deals across an array of the brand’s electric lawn care equipment and tools. One notable inclusion that deserves some spotlight time is the brand’s 56V 765 CFM Cordless Leaf Blower that comes with a 5.0Ah and 2.5Ah batteries for $329.99 shipped. This bundle would normally cost you $509 in full, with more frequent discounts usually hitting its counterpart package with just the 5.0Ah battery that has gone as low as $293 at Amazon. Considering the 2.5Ah batteries usual $150 rate, scoring it here at just $37 more is quite the steal. Today’s deal has only been beaten in price once before in April 2023, when it last hit its $300 low.

Housing a brushless motor, this 56V leaf blower from EGO offers up to 90 minutes of averaged continuous runtime thanks to the 5.0Ah battery, with that rate bumped to 150 minutes with it at its low setting – and of course, the extra 2.5Ah battery offers extended times once swapped out. There is a variable speed control on this model for a 260 to 580 CFM range, while the turbo mode ramps that all the way up to its max 765 CFM (around 200 MPH air flow). Along with the device, batteries, and charger, you’ll also be getting a spread nozzle, a tapered nozzle, and a shoulder strap.

We’ve covered a lot of amazing deals from this sale, many of which are new and returning low prices. Be sure to check them out before the savings end:

govee smart electric composter

Turn food waste into nutrient-rich soil with Govee’s Smart Electric Composter at $305

Coming at us by way of its official Amazon storefront, Govee is offering its Smart Electric Composter for $304.99 shipped, after clipping the on-page $150 off coupon. Normally sitting up at a $500 price tag since hitting the market in October, it’s mostly been discounted to $350 in the time since, with occasional falls further to $300. Today’s deal is a 39% markdown that puts $195 in initial savings back in your pocket (plus the money you’ll save utilizing it in your life), dropping costs to the third-lowest price we have tracked – $5 under our previous mention a month ago and $55 above the all-time low that we haven’t seen since it first released.

If you’ve wanted to cut down on your food waste and/or recycle that waste to reuse as low-cost soil for your plants, you’ll want to consider adding this Smart Electric Composter to your home life. It keeps digital records of your usage so you can better track your wasteful habits, providing you with another means to save money when planning out meals.

It provides three different operating modes, complete with smart controls via the companion app and hands-free voice controls through Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri – with safety notifications even being sent to you should anything not be functioning properly. Of course, I’m sure you’re worried about smells that tend to permeate from the composting process, but this model has been given two interchangeable filters that prevent those odors from escaping and filling up your kitchen. You can find replacement filters at Amazon for $26 right now too.

Review: The ST3 Pro e-scooter brings serious suspension alongside smart controls and more as Navee’s latest flagship

As a long-time rider of Segway electric scooters, my expectations are quite high for new brands looking to climb their way up to the standard that the household-name has set in stone at this point. Only within the last few months did Navee come onto my radar, with the brand offering me the chance to test out its latest flagship model, the ST3 Pro Electric Scooter, which has been quite the surprise, to say the least. At first, it seemed like it was full of gimmicks that were destined to fail, but after riding around for several weeks now, I can happily say that Segway may just have found a new challenger. Head below to get my hands-on impressions of this high-end e-scooter that still retains accessible pricing for the stunning list of features.

Lectric launches upgraded XP Trike2 750 long-range eTrike for preorder with a $493 bundle at $1,799, more

As part of Lectric’s ongoing Labor Day Sale, the brand has officially launched its new XP Trike2 750 Long-Range eTrike with a $493 bundle for preorder at $1,799 shipped, while the standard XP Trike2 is seeing its biggest bundle yet of $242 in free gear at $1,499 shipped. The standard model only hit the market last month during the brand’s Prime Day sale with a $227 bundle, which is now increased to a $242 value, whereas the new long-range variant is starting with over double the value of bundled free gear. This new model will be getting steel-encased front and rear cargo baskets, a support seat with a backrest, an Elite headlight, a suspension seat post, a pair of mirrors, and an accordion-style bike lock. Head below to learn more about these two models or check out the brand’s full lineup of Labor Day deals here.

Lectric’s eTrikes have been among the most popular on the market, and this new generation takes everything fans have loved and goes even further with the upgrades (not to mention the wide array of colorway options). Starting with the variances, the standard XP Trike2 sports a Stealth M24 500W rear hub motor (peaking at 1,092W) and a 624Wh battery combo, while Lectric’s newer XP Trike2 750, as the name implies, comes with a more powerful 750W motor upgrade and a larger 840Wh battery. While both max out at 14 MPH top speeds, the standard can give you five levels of pedal-assisted support for up to 50 miles, while the 750 model extends that range up to 70 miles of travel. They both offer a power-limiting preset feature too, letting you take things slow and get to know your new ride before ramping up to its fastest settings.

From there, the only difference is Lectric’s standard model has a cadence sensor vs. the XP Trike2 750’s torque sensor upgrade, with them otherwise sharing the other stock features, including a Cloud 50 suspension fork for less strain on older riders’ joints. There’s also the puncture-resistant tires with fenders to go over all three, hydraulic disc brakes, headlighting/tail lighting that brings amber side lighting, turn signals, brake lighting into the mix, as well as an IPX5 water-resistance construction, parking brakes, a rear cargo rack, a TFT LCD screen, keyless riding functionality, and more.

Be sure to check out Lectric’s full Labor Day Sale lineup in our original coverage here, which includes the largest bundle on the XP4 Folding Utility e-bikes, as well as a surprise $500 price drop alongside a $220 package on Lectric’s premium ONE Long-Range Belt-Drive Commuter e-bike at a new $1,899 low, among others.

Bluetti’s latest sale drops the Handsfree backpack power stations to best prices starting from $199, more

Bluetti has an ongoing Emergency Power Sale that seems to be taking the place of any officially named Labor Day Sale, and which is taking up to 46% off the brand’s power stations. Among the lineup, we also spotted a particularly notable 48-hour flash sale that is offering the Handsfree 1 and Handsfree 2 Backpack Power Stations for $199 shipped and $299 shipped. These two highly portable power solutions normally go for $429 and $599 at full price, which have mostly dropped down to $299 and $399 during sales, save for the occasional flash events where we’ve seen these low rates pop up. You’re getting another chance to score either at the best prices we have tracked, giving you $230 or $300 in savings, and beating out Amazon prices of $349 for the Handsfree 1 and $449 for the Handsfree 2. Head below for more on these and some of the other offers during this sale.

Hyundai’s new electric family hauler is already winning over buyers

Hyundai's new electric family hauler is already winning over buyers

Hyundai's-three-row-electric-SUV

The IONIQ 9, Hyundai’s first three-row electric SUV, is off to a stronger start than most predicted. At a time when many automakers are blaming slow EV demand, Hyundai’s big electric family hauler seems to be bucking the trend.

Hyundai’s three-row electric SUV is off to a strong start

After opening IONIQ 9 pre-orders in its home market in February, Hyundai was already calling the larger SUV a game-changer.

A few months later, in March, the first models rolled off the production line at Hyundai’s new Metaplant America in Georgia.

The IONIQ 9 has only been on the market for a few months, but it’s already winning over buyers. Since launching the three-row electric SUV in February, Hyundai has sold 14,391 units globally. Of them, 4,745 were sold in Korea and 9,646 were sold overseas.

In the US, Hyundai has sold 2,086 IONIQ 9 models since it went on sale in May. Although it may not seem like much, considering it’s a higher-priced electric SUV in an increasingly crowded segment, local analysts believe it is beating expectations.

In the US, most brands are seeing an influx of EV buyers ahead of the federal tax credit expiration at the end of September.

The 2026 IONIQ 9 starts at $60,655 in the US, offering a driving range of 335 miles. However, with generous discounts, Hyundai is offering leases as low as $299 per month. The offer is for a 36-month lease with $4,999 due at signing.

Hyundai’s three-row electric SUV isn’t the brand’s only EV that’s seeing relatively strong demand. The new and improved 2025 IONIQ 5 is coming off its best sales month in the US in July and remains one of the top-selling EVs in the US.

The IONIQ 5 is also surprisingly affordable. Hyundai is offering 2025 IONIQ 5 leases starting at $129 per month. However, the best offers are mainly in California and other ZEV states.

In other states, the 2025 IONIQ 5 is still one of the most affordable EVs with leases starting at just $179 per month.

Both the IONIQ 9 and IONIQ 5 are built at Hyundai’s plant in Georgia, enabling them to qualify for the $7,500 EV tax credit. Hyundai’s current Getaway sales promotions end on September 3, ahead of the tax credit expiration at the end of the month.

Another major automaker is abandoning its big EV plans

German-automaker-EV-plans

Yet another big name in auto is pulling back on its EV plans, blaming slower than expected demand for electric vehicles.

Porsche drops in-house EV battery plans

Volkswagen’s luxury sports car brand, Porsche, announced this week that it no longer plans to build EV batteries in-house.

Cellforce, Porsche’s high-performance EV battery company, will shrink and only focus on research and development, rather than production.

In a statement, Porsche blamed “the slower ramp-up” of EVs and “challenging market conditions” in its biggest markets, the US and China, for the changes.

CEO Oliver Blume, confirmed the news, saying “For volume reasons and a lack of economies of scale, Porsche is no longer pursuing its own production of battery cells.” The staff reductions, will be handled in “a socially responsible matter,” Porsche said. Volkswagen’s battery unit, PowerCo, will take on several former employees.

Porsche plans to continue to continue offering internal combustion engine (ICE), hybrid, and all-electric options across every segment “well into the 2030s.”

Following the Taycan and Macan Electric, Porsche is still planning to launch the all-electric Cayenne and 718 models. The German automaker promises future models will still “bring trend-setting technologies in electromobility into series production.”

A separate report from German magazine WirtschaftsWoche claimed on Wednesday that Porsche is on the hunt for a new CEO to replace Oliver Blume.

German automaker Opel drops EV commitment plans

Porsche isn’t the only German automaker adjusting EV plans. Opel is one of the many brands under the Stellantis Group, alongside Jeep, Ram, Peugeot, Citroën, Fiat, and several others.

Although it was one of the many automakers to commit to offering an all-electric lineup, it’s now backing off its promise.

German-automaker-EV-plans

During Stellantis’ EV Day in 2021, Opel announced its intention to transition to all-electric vehicles by 2028, accompanied by a slate of new models. Former CEO Michael Lohscheller, now chief executive at Polestar, said, “As of 2028, Opel will only offer electric cars in our core market Europe.”

On Monday, the German auto giant abandoned its plans for an all-EV lineup, saying it will continue to focus on its current “multi-energy” strategy.

German-automaker-EV-plans

Opel is the first German auto brand to offer a fully electrified model for every vehicle in its lineup, including electric (EVs), plug-in (PHEVs), and even internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.

In response to media reports claiming it has changed its strategy, the company said in a statement, “This does not have to be limited to 2028 if the demand side requires otherwise.”

Although the company will continue to focus on EVs in specific regions, like the UK, France, and Germany, it will also offer other powertrain options based on demand.

Opel, alongside British sister company Vauxhall, is one of the top-selling brands in Europe. In Germany and the UK, Opel and Vauxhall ranked first in the ever-expanding B-hatch segment through the first half of the year.

The German auto giant becomes the latest brand to scale back EV plans or shift to hybrids, following Volvo, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, BMW, and others.
