ECOVACS’ new Goat O1000 RTK robot lawn mower sees its first discount to $900

We’re seeing the very first chance at savings over at Amazon on ECOVACS’ new Goat O1000 RTK Robot Lawn Mower that is dropping the price to $899.99 shipped, while also matching directly from the brand’s website. This model was only recently released following its unveiling at CES 2025 carrying a full $1,000 price tag, and it’s nice to see it already getting some cash savings in the early spring months ahead of those warmer days when plenty of folks will be much more concerned with getting their lawn care routines back to normal. You’re looking at a solid $100 discount here while the savings last, setting the bar for future discounts down the road.

First introduced at CES 2025, ECOVACS’ Goat O1000 is one among several new robot mowers from the brand, with this one more tailored for folks with smaller lawns up to 1/4-acres in size. It’s been given a compact and narrow 1.31-foot design to better fit into tighter spaces where normal mowers couldn’t go, complete with an IPX6 waterproof rating to stand up to unexpected weather changes. You’ll get remote smart controls via the companion app, with an editable 3D map that lets you “add, merge, split, or delete areas, giving you full control over your lawn layout,” along with the usual setting adjustments to tailor its performance for your grass’ needs.

Equipped with advanced AI tech, the ECOVACS Goat O1000 robot mower sports RTK navigation (so no perimeter wires here) to keep track of where it’s been and where it needs to go, as well as integrated AIVI 3D obstacle avoidance – not just for everyday objects and debris it might come across, but also small animals too, even at night. It even has a LiDAR (3D-ToF) and a fisheye camera for better support, especially should it enter under heavily shaded areas where the satellites can’t directly find it. The TrueEdge mowing “smoothly follows along your set boundaries for zero-edge cutting, providing a clean, professional finish.” There’s also the LELS navigation that drives it in a U-shaped path for better efficiency and so that you won’t have to hop in for manual touch-ups in select spots.

Anker PowerCore Reserve 60,000mAh Power Bank Station

Anker’s 5-pound PowerCore Reserve 60,000mAh power bank station is a totable backup companion at $90

As part of its now live Big Spring Sale, Anker’s official Amazon storefront is offering its PowerCore Reserve 60,000mAh Power Bank Station for $89.99 shipped. Coming down off of its usual $150 price tag, it’s spent most of the last year keeping above $100, though we have been seeing more frequent drops to $90 since Black Friday sales, with 2025 seeing a fall per month along with several short-term Lightning deals. Today’s deal marks the second we’ve seen in March, coming in with a $60 price cut to the second-lowest price we have tracked – just $10 above the all-time low, which we haven’t seen again since Christmas sales. You’ll also find it matching in price directly from Anker’s website.

Anker’s PowerCore Reserve is a 5-pound totable companion for your out-of-house travels, whether you’re heading out of town on a trip or just getting through your day-to-day schedule. It starts off by offering up a 60,000mAh/192Wh battery capacity, with two USB-A ports and two USB-C ports that deliver up to 60W charging speeds. It’s even been equipped with a pop-up light on the top of its form factor that works great for camping trips, providing you with two brightness levels alongside an S.O.S button for emergencies. You’ll also have two options to recharge its battery – either via a wall outlet or connecting up to its 60W solar input maximum to take advantage of the sun’s rays.

Hiboy S2 Pro electric scooter

Hiboy’s S2 Pro e-scooter with regenerative brakes falls to $425 in Big Spring savings

As part of its Big Spring Sale, Amazon is now offering the Hiboy S2 Pro Electric Scooter for $424.99 shipped. You’ll usually find it sitting at a $650 rate here at Amazon while it carries a higher $736 tag direct from Hiboy, though we have been seeing it keep down at $450 throughout 2025 so far. While it has fallen lower in price in the past, especially during Christmas sales, you’re looking at the best rate we’ve tracked so far in the new year, with today’s deal putting $225 back in your pocket while equipping you with a reliable means to get through your commutes as the spring weather blooms.

An affordable means to enjoy your commutes around town, to school, and more, Hiboy’s S2 Pro e-scooter has been given an 11.6Ah battery for up to 25 miles of travel on a single charge while the 500W hub motor provides top speeds of 19 MPH. Momentum is even recycled to help extend that travel time thanks to the downhill and regenerative braking here, recharging the battery whenever you activate braking or coast down hills/slopes. It’s also been built with an IPX4 water-resistant design, complete with the folding body you’d expect of a scooter, as well as an LED headlight, taillight, and sidelights. You’ll have access to the full array of smart controls via its companion app too, allowing you to adjust settings and even remote lock the scooter when it’s not in use.

Other Hiboy Big Spring Sale deals:

Husqvarna Power Axe 350i 42V 18-inch Cordless Chainsaw kit

Husqvarna’s Power Axe 350i 42V 18-inch cordless chainsaw kit falls to $384

Amazon is offering the Husqvarna Power Axe 350i 42V 18-inch Cordless Chainsaw Kit for $383.99 shipped. Coming down off its usual $480 price tag, we don’t usually see too many discounts on this brand’s equipment, with it keeping up at its MSRP for most of 2025 so far, with one previous discount in January taking things to $449. While we have seen it go as low as $335 in 2023, over the last year it’s mostly kept above $399, with today’s deal being a 20% markdown that cuts $96 off the going rate, landing it among the lowest prices we have tracked – $49 above the all-time low.

Coming with an included battery and charger, which is rare as Husqvarna more often discounts its tool-only deals over kits and combo packages, the Power Axe chainsaw is a lightweight 18-inch model that houses a brushless motor for “more durability, high efficiency, and quiet operation.” It’s been given the brand’s X-cut chain that retains its sharpness for longer periods, as well as a tool-less tensioning system so you can make slack adjustments faster and without much effort. Its power can even be ramped up by 25% in its boost mode with a simple press of a button. You’ll also be able to switch out the battery for other tools in the brand’s 40V ecosystem.

Trilogy Metals shares soar nearly 200% in premarket after U.S. takes stake in minerals explorer

Shares of U.S.-listed minerals explorer Trilogy Metals jumped as much as 205% in premarket trade on Tuesday, shortly after the White House said it would take a 10% stake in the Canadian company.

The stock was seen trading 183% higher in premarket deals at 9:54 a.m. London time (4:54 a.m. ET).

The White House on Monday announced a partnership with Trilogy Metals as part of a push to unlock domestic supplies of copper and other critical minerals in the Ambler mining district in Alaska.

The partnership included a $35.6 million investment, which makes the U.S. government a 10% shareholder in Trilogy Metals.

Trilogy Metals welcomed Trump’s decision to grant permits to enable the development of critical minerals in Alaska, saying the Ambler mining district is “home to some of the world’s richest known copper-dominant polymetallic deposits.”

The company said in a statement that Trump’s order, which reverses the Biden administration’s rejection of the Ambler Road project, “reflects a renewed federal commitment to responsible resource development in Alaska and highlights the Ambler Road as critical infrastructure under federal policy.”

It added that the move would help to secure domestic supply chains for minerals including copper, cobalt, zinc and lead, highlighting the importance of these resources in energy infrastructure, defense technologies and manufacturing.

GEM eX launched as fully street-legal electric UTV

GEM eX launched as fully street-legal electric UTV

Waev Inc. has just unveiled the GEM eX, a new electric utility vehicle designed to bridge the gap between street-legal low-speed vehicles (LSVs) and true off-road work machines. The company calls it the most versatile electric work UTV yet.

Unlike most golf cart–based UTVs or high-speed recreational rigs, the GEM eX is purpose-built for commercial, industrial, and government fleets that need to move between city streets, job sites, and rough terrain, all while staying emissions-free.

The vehicle features a top speed of 25 mph (40 km/h) and is said to be DOT street-legal as an LSV on roads up to 35 mph (56 km/h), giving it a clear advantage over most off-road-only competitors.

Power is provided by a 6.5 kW motor in a rear-wheel drive setup with a limited-slip rear differential. An 8 kWh battery provides enough juice for a claimed maximum range of 85 miles (137 km).

The eX comes with several fleet-focused safety and utility upgrades, including 3-point seat belts, roof crush protection, backup camera, mirrors, pedestrian noise emitter, and a robust bumper system. It rolls on street, winter, or all-terrain tires, and the chassis features 9.5 inches (24 cm) of ground clearance, 6.5 inches (16.5 cm) of suspension travel, and a 50-degree approach angle for climbing curbs or crossing uneven work terrain.

Hill-hold assist and single-pedal descent control make it easy to handle on slopes, while a limited-slip differential helps maintain traction without chewing up turf.

In the back, a 1,250 lb (567 kg) composite dump box can fit a full-sized pallet and comes with gas-assist or electric lift options, while towing capacity matches that at 1,250 lb (567 kg). Optional hard doors, roll-down windows, and HVAC with heat and A/C turn it into a true all-weather workhorse.

The lithium iron phosphate battery pack is said to provide a long lifespan for extra durability in extreme climates from –20°F to 140°F (–29°C to 60°C). Charging is flexible via 120V, 240V, or J1772 public stations, and Waev backs the battery with a 7-year warranty – on par with many passenger EVs.

“We field-tested the GEM eX everywhere from Arizona deserts to Minnesota winters,” said Sven Etzelsberger, Waev’s Director of Engineering. “Every piece of customer feedback went back into this vehicle. The result is a work UTV that’s refined, reliable, and ready to go.”

The GEM platform has expanded significantly over the years, from its humble beginnings as a simple people mover to more recent adaptations into everything from ambulances and emergency vehicles to the new GEM eX electric UTV.

Priced at $24,955, the higher purchase price may be one of the few downsides to the quieter, cleaner, and easier to maintain alternative to traditional gasoline-powered UTVs.

Electrek’s Take

Waev’s new GEM eX seems to hit a sweet spot that’s been missing – a street-legal, electric work UTV tough enough for real jobs yet affordable and easy to maintain. For fleet managers juggling both paved and off-road environments, this could be a serious game-changer.

While the price is high, it comes in at significantly less than other well-known models like Polaris’ Zero-powered electric RANGER UTV.

At the same time, there are still more affordable options like those from KANDI that offer more power for a lower price. However, without GEM’s storied brand legacy and increased national support, cheaper options may not have the staying power to compete.

So sure, it’s expensive, but at least I’m glad to see more options coming to the market, especially from brands that have been around for years. Here’s to hoping for more affordable options in the future.
