Save up to 55% on a massive lineup of power station deals during Anker’s SOLIX Mother’s Day sale starting from $70

Anker has launched its Mother’s Day sale running through May 11, with up to 55% being taken off its massive lineup of power stations and solar generators, as well as some multi-day flash sale offers and extra savings in the form of free gear on select purchases. A notable inclusion for campers is the brand’s F2000 Portable Solar Generator bundle that comes along with a 400W solar panel for $1,599 shipped, and also matching in price over at Amazon. Coming down off its usual $2,898 price tag, we’ve seen discounts in 2025 mostly dropping costs between $1,899 and $1,599, with today’s deal only beaten out by the discount from Christmas sales that dropped things $100 lower. You’re looking at the best price we’ve otherwise tracked, which saves you $1,299 while also equipping you with a reliable means of backup power for trips and emergencies.

As mentioned before, there are some benefits you can take advantage of during this event, with three different gift offers accompanying select purchases. When you buy a C1000 and EverFrost 2 40L bundle, you’ll get a free Tritan water bottle, while any of the C300 bundles come along with a free car charging cable, and purchases of either the F3800 or F3800 Plus score you a free protective cover.

A solid mid-tier option for keeping devices and appliances running, Anker’s SOLIX F2000 power station provides a 2,048Wh LiFePO4 capacity that can deliver up to 2,400W of output on average with the ability to surge to 3,600W for larger appliance needs. Its 12 output ports give you a versatile range of coverage, including a TT-30 port to connect to your RV while out on the road and beyond. You can regain 80% of its battery in 1.4 hours by plugging it into a standard wall outlet, with it also boasting a 1,000W max solar input that would yield the same amount in 2.5 hours (and a little over 5 hours for the included 400W panel). There’s also the option to connect it to your car’s auxiliary port, as well as the usual array of smart controls available through its companion app.

EcoFlow has launched its newest portable AC/heater and electric cooler units, which are joining the lineup of power station deals we’re seeing as part of the brand’s Spring-to-Summer Sale, but will be outlasting the sale through May 25 – plus, there’s even bonus savings and free gear to be had! Things start at the base WAVE 3 Portable Air Conditioner and Heater for $806.55 shippedafter using the promo code EFWGAFF5 at checkout for an additional 5% off. This new unit will carry a $1,299 price tag once the launch savings have ended, with the combined 38% markdown we’re seeing striking $492 off the going rate to set the bar for discounts down the road. Head below to learn more about this new device and check out its many bundle deals that we’ve collected together for you.

As a bonus, you’ll also be getting some free gear along with both the AC and the cooler, with the WAVE 3 coming along with a free 110W solar panel while the GLACIER coolers are getting a free Power Hat. These offers are only slated to continue through May 2, however, with the extra savings code lasting through May 25.

EcoFlow’s WAVE 3 provides similar performance to its previous-generation model, but with some notable upgrades, like the space coverage from the previous 108 square feet to 120 to 180 square feet. Whether you’re looking to utilize it for camping in a tent, car, RV, or other enclosed space, it’s 1,800W cooling output (6,100 BTU power) is claimed by the brand to drop temperatures by 15 degrees in 15 minutes, with the 2,000W heating output (6,800 BTU power) providing a similar speed of warming a space by 17 degrees in 15 minutes. It comes with an expanded list of smart controls through its companion app, with new features like the PetCare mode that automatically starts cooling once temperatures reach 77 degrees to protect your fur-babies from heatstroke, while also sending you notifications. There are also notifications for when its water drain needs attention, as well as offering a dehumidification mode and a sleep mode that drops operating noise to 44dB so you can sleep while it runs.

Like its predecessor, the standalone WAVE 3 can be powered by simply plugging it into an outlet or power station, or you can get up to 8 hours of wireless action with its add-on LiFePO4 battery (bundles below). Of course, once its battery is attached, there are some alternative ways to keep it juiced up and going, like utilizing up to its 400W max solar input to refill the battery in up to 3 hours, which can also be split between solar and an AC outlet to cut that time to 75 minutes. You can also connect it to your car with the brand’s 800W alternator, charging to regain a full battery after a little more than one hour of charging, while connecting it to your car’s auxiliary port takes longer, at 10 hours.

Mercedes-Benz offers an exclusive first look at the new electric GLC

Mercedes-Benz is gearing up to unveil the electric version of its best-selling SUV, the GLC, later this year. With its official debut just around the corner, Mercedes revealed a few new details, offering an exclusive first look at the new EV.

Mercedes offers an exclusive look at the new electric GLC

Although we got a sneak peek of the electric SUV in March during winter testing in Northern Sweden, Mercedes is giving us a better idea of what to expect.

“We’re not just introducing a new model – we’re electrifying our top seller,” Mercedes-Benz Group CEO, Ola Källenius, said on Thursday.

Mercedes promises the electric GLC “sets new standards” with a sleek new design, advanced tech, and its new MB.OS operating system.

The new GLC EV is an upgrade over the current model, offering significantly more space and improved ride quality. Since the wheelbase is 3.1″ longer than the current gas-powered SUV, the electric version has more legroom and headroom for front and rear passengers.

With all the seats folded, the electric SUV offers 61.4 cubic feet of space. The gas-powered model features up to 56.3 cubic feet of cargo space. Plus, you get an extra 4.5 cu ft of space in the trunk (front trunk).

Källenius said that with Mercedes’ new 800V electric architecture and latest batteries, the electric GLC can regain around 260 km (161 miles) WLTP range in just ten minutes. He added that DC fast charging at over 320 kW is possible.

The GLC 400 4MATIC with EQ Technology will arrive with impressive towing capability of up to 5,291 lbs. In comparison, the Tesla Model Y can only tow up to 3,500 lbs.

Added features, such as ESP trailer stabilization and trailer maneuvering assistant, make it even easier to tow with optimized stability and control.

Källenius also teased the new electric GLC design, calling it the start of a “new era” and “a new face of the brand as the first in a family of upcoming vehicles.”

The inside is just as impressive, providing a holistic experience. A “majestically floating next generation MBUX Hyperscreen” is optional, providing a spatial experience powered by the new MB.OS supercomputer.

Mercedes will unveil the new electric GLC at the 2025 International Motor Show in Munich on September 7, 2025.

Although official range figures will be revealed at the event, according to Car and Driver, which tested a prototype model, Mercedes said it expects the new GLC to provide a WLTP range of just over 400 miles, or slightly more than 300 miles on the EPA scale, from a 94.5 kWh battery.

Prices will also be announced in due time, but given that the current GLC 350e 4MATIC PHEV starts at $59,900 in the US, you can expect the electric model to be priced slightly higher, at around $65,000.

Tesla (TSLA) pushes its shareholders annual meeting all the way to November, but why?

Tesla (TSLA) pushes its shareholders annual meeting all the way to November, but why?

Tesla (TSLA) announced its 2025 annual shareholders meeting at the very last minute, and it pushed it all the way to November, the latest it has ever held the meeting.

Tesla generally holds its annual meeting in the summer and announces it way ahead of time.

Today, the automaker announced that the meeting will be held on November 6:

The board of directors (the “Board”) of Tesla, Inc. (“Tesla”) has designated November 6, 2025 as the date of Tesla’s 2025 annual meeting of shareholders (the “2025 Annual Meeting”).

This is highly unusual for Tesla. Here are the dates of Tesla’s last 5 annual meetings:

  • 2020: September 22, 2020
  • 2021: October 7, 2021
  • 2022: August 4, 2022
  • 2023: May 16, 2023
  • 2024: June 13, 2024

At those meetings, shareholders vote on several matters, including the reelection of directors and shareholders’ proposals.

Tesla has not released any yet, but they are expected to be in the upcoming proxy statement, which Tesla should release in the coming weeks.

Why does Tesla need more time?

Electrek’s Take

I think Tesla is working on some proposals that are going to take time to put together and then to sell to shareholders – hence why the meeting is set for November.

There are two suspects: a new CEO compensation package for Musk or a merger/acquisition of xAI.

It could also be both, but I think that would be harder to swallow for some shareholders as both initiatives have a clear aim of giving Musk a bigger stake in Tesla.

I think sane investors should not want that, but Tesla shareholders don’t fit in that category. Much of Tesla’s value is attached to Musk’s lies and ridiculous predictions. The value will have to come down to reality at some point, but they are a bunch of gamblers who are enjoying the ride in the meantime.

NIO (NIO) opens orders for the new three-row Onvo L90, starting at under $30,000

NIO (NIO) opens orders for the new three-row Onvo L90, starting at under ,000

A three-row electric SUV for less than $30,000? Sign me up. NIO (NYSE: NIO) opened pre-orders for the new Onvo L90 on Thursday, starting from 193,900 yuan, or about $27,000.

NIO kicks off Onvo L90 pre-orders in China

NIO claims the Onvo L90 is the lightest full-size three-row SUV in its class, with a curb weight just under 5,000 lbs (2,250 kg). In comparison, the Lucid Gravity has a curb weight of 5,966 lbs (2,712 kg).

The new flagship model is designed as a family-friendly SUV, offering ample interior space and advanced technology.

At 5,145 mm long, 1,998 mm wide, and 1,766 mm tall, the Onvo L90 is slightly bigger than the Lucid Gravity. In China, it will go head-to-head with higher-end electric SUVs like Li Auto’s L9.

However, the L9 is an extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) and starts at around 409,800 yuan ($57,000), more than double the price of the Onvo L90.

The low price of 193,900 yuan ($27,000) applies only to those who rent the battery. Nio’s Battery as a Service (BaaS) costs 899 yuan ($125) a month. With the battery included, the Onvo L90 still starts at just 279,900 yuan ($39,000).

Nio’s new electric SUV is offered in six and seven-seat configurations. The interior features a massive 17.2″ floating infotainment screen at the center.

Other interior highlights include a three-zone climate control system, massage, heating, and ventilation for every seat, as well as an additional entertainment screen for rear passengers. And like many new vehicles in China nowadays, it even comes with a built-in refrigerator.

Powered by an 85 kWh battery, the Onvo L90 offers a CLTC range of 605 km (367 miles). It’s also based on NIO’s next-gen 900V platform, unlocking class-leading energy consumption of just 14.5 kWh per 100 km.

Buyers can choose from single and all-wheel-drive powertrains. The AWD version boasts up to 590 hp (440 kW), good for a 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) sprint in just 4.7 seconds.

NIO is offering an incentive for early pre-order holders. Those who place an order with a 2,000 yuan deposit will receive a 5,000 yuan credit off the vehicle and an extra 5,000 yuan for optional features and more. Nio plans to begin delivering Onvo L90 to customers, starting on August 1.

The L90 is the second Onvo-branded EV to arrive in China, following the smaller L60, launched last September.
