Anker’s final SOLIX spring flash sale offers giant deals on F3800 power station bundles at up to $7,032 off
As part of its ongoing Spring Sale through March 31, Anker has launched the last of its SOLIX Spring Sale flash offers running through the rest of the month and taking up to 44% off in initial savings on a selection of F3800 bundles, as well as any additional savings you can score on packages that are over $3,000. Things are starting with the SOLIX F3800 Portable Power Station coming along with two 200W solar panels at $2,799 shipped. This bundle would normally cost you $4,997 at full price, which we don’t usually see featured in sales as much as we do the counterpart bundle with a single 400W panel. Today’s deal is coming in lower than we’ve tracked before thanks to the $2,198 markdown, which gives you a versatile and modular backup solution at the best price we can find. If you’d prefer the latest F3800 Plus model, be sure to check out the massive savings from its launch that have been extended alongside these deals.
Anker’s SOLIX F3800 is one of the best options for folks who want more versatility and expandability, as it starts with a 3,840Wh LiFePO4 capacity that can rise as high as 26.9kWh with future investments into its compatible expansion batteries (or scoring them in a bundle below). It puts out a normal 6,000W of output power that can surge up to 9,000W for large-scale appliances and home backup needs. There are 15+ output port options to connect to, which include dedicated ports for your RV, EV, and your home’s circuit breaker – though the latter will require either the Home Backup Kit for sectional support or the Home Power Panel for whole-home coverage and roof panel connections. You can recharge its own battery through an AC wall outlet, or connect up to its maximum 2,400W of solar input, which can refill the battery to 80% in 1.5 hours with ideal conditions.

If you’re trying to figure out which would be best for you – Anker’s SOLIX F3800 or the new SOLIX F3800 Plus, there are only a few differences to really keep in mind. First, the F3800 Plus has an increased solar input of 3,200W, as well as an increased capacity that it can take in from a generator. From there, it mainly depends on whether you’re an RV trekker or not – as the standard F3800 offers both L14-30R and 14-50R port options, while the F3800 Plus provides L14-30R and TT-30R ports, better for RV backup needs. Be sure to check out the full rundown of capabilities for the newly released F3800 Plus and its massive savings in our original coverage here.
Anker’s final SOLIX Spring Sale F3800 flash offers:
F3800 (7,680Wh) with expansion battery and home backup kit: $4,084 (Reg. $7,097)
EVOLV takes up to $400 in spring savings off four of its electric scooters starting from $1,129
EVOLV has a Spring Sale savings event going on right now, which is taking up to $400 off a selection of its higher-end e-scooters, starting with the TERRA Electric Scooter that starts at the lowest rate of $1,129 shipped, after using the promo code SPRING-SALE at checkout. Coming off its usual $1,229 price tag, we don’t see too many discounts across the lineup and when we do, it’s often in small amounts, with this model usually only seeing this same $100 markdown – including for Black Friday, which has only been beaten once over the last year when it hit a new $1,079 low in September. You’re looking at the second-lowest price we have tracked while these savings last.
The popular TERRA e-scooter sports dual 600W motors alongside a 15.6Ah battery, giving it the capabilities to reach 31 MPH top speeds and carry you anywhere for up to 34 miles on a single five to seven hours of charging. There are two driving modes here – the dual mode, activating both motors to produce up to 2,200W of peak power for maximum speed and tackling inclines, as well as the eco mode, which only utilizes one motor to limit things at 15 MPH, providing longer-lasting rides. Among its stock features, you’ll find front and rear shock suspension, dual drum brakes, dual LED headlights and dual LED taillights, as well as in-deck lights too – plus, the folding frame that conserves storage space when its not in use.

Clear yard debris by blowing, collecting, and/or mulching with Worx’s 12A Trivac at $70
As part of its Big Spring Sale, Amazon is offering the Worx WG509 12A Trivac 3-in-1 Electric Leaf Blower/Mulcher/Vacuum for $70.48 shipped. It’s coming down off its usual $100 price tag here today, with the last year mainly seeing prices drop between $75 and $95 on average, though we did see it go as low as $65 during Black Friday. While we have seen the price drop as far as $60 in the past, this deal gives you one of the best recent rates we’ve tracked at $30 off the going rate, landing it down among the lowest we have seen.
The Worx Trivac was designed with the phrase “work smarter, not harder” in mind, offering up a 3-in-1 functionality to either blow, collect, and/or mulch the debris in your yard. The standard blower settings max out at 210 MPH worth of airflow, while the included bag provides the means for collection, which is controlled via a simple flip of a switch. It boasts a two-stage metal impeller and shredder blades to complete mulching tasks, which Worx assures “takes 18 bags worth of leaves and chops it down into one.” It weighs in at only 10 pounds for easier use despite varying sizes and strengths, and sports an angled collection nozzle so you can even reach under patio furniture, your deck, and more. This is a corded model, by the way, so you just have to keep it plugged in for prolonged use rather than wait for any batteries to recharge.

The savings this week are also continuing to a collection of other markdowns. To the same tune as the offers above, these all help you take a more energy-conscious approach to your routine. Winter means you can lock in even better off-season price cuts on electric tools for the lawn while saving on EVs and tons of other gear.

Today was the official start of racing at the Electrek Formula Sun Grand Prix 2025! There was a tremendous energy (and heat) on the ground at NCM Motorsports Park as nearly a dozen teams took to the track. Currently, as of writing, Stanford is ranked #1 in the SOV (Single-Occupant Vehicle) class with 68 registered laps. However, the fastest lap so far belongs to UC Berkeley, which clocked a 4:45 on the 3.15-mile track. That’s an average speed of just under 40 mph on nothing but solar energy. Not bad!
In the MOV (Multi-Occupant Vehicle) class, Polytechnique Montréal is narrowly ahead of Appalachian State by just 4 laps. At last year’s formula sun race, Polytechnique Montréal took first place overall in this class, and the team hopes to repeat that success. It’s still too early for prediction though, and anything can happen between now and the final day of racing on Saturday.
Congrats to the teams that made it on track today. We look forward to seeing even more out there tomorrow. In the meantime, here are some shots from today via the event’s wonderful photographer Cora Kennedy.

Tesla has launched its new Oasis Supercharger, the long-promised EV charging station of the future, with a solar farm and off-grid batteries.
Early in the deployment of the Supercharger network, Tesla promised to add solar arrays and batteries to the Supercharger stations, and CEO Elon Musk even said that most stations would be able to operate off-grid.
While Tesla did add solar and batteries to a few stations, the vast majority of them don’t have their own power system or have only minimal solar canopies.
Back in 2016, I asked Musk about this, and he said that it would now happen as Tesla had the “pieces now in place” with Supercharger V3, Powerpack V2, and SolarCity:

All of these pieces have been in place for years, and Tesla has now discontinued the Powerpack in favor of the Megapack. The Supercharger network is also transitioning to V4 stations.
Yet, solar and battery deployment haven’t accelerated much in the decade since Musk made that comment, but it is finally happening.
Tesla has now unveiled the project and turned on most of the Supercharger stalls:
The project consists of 168 chargers, with half of them currently operational, making it one of the largest Supercharger stations in the world. However, that’s not even the most notable aspect of it.
The station is equipped with 11 MW of ground-mounted solar panels and canopies, spanning 30 acres of land, and 10 Tesla Megapacks with a total energy storage capacity of 39 MWh.
It can be operated off-grid, which is the case right now, according to Tesla.
With off-grid operations, Tesla was about to bring 84 stalls online just in time for the Fourth of July travel weekend. The rest of the stalls and a lounge are going to open later this year.
Electrek’s Take
This is awesome. A bit late, but awesome. This is what charging stations should be like: fully powered by renewable energy.
Unfortunately, it will be much harder to open those stations in the future due to legislation that Trump and the Republican Party have just passed, which removes incentives for solar and energy storage, adds taxes on them, and removes incentives to build batteries – all things that have helped Tesla considerably over the last few years.
The US is likely going to have a few tough years for EV adoption and renewable energy deployment.
