Power Dad’s needs with EcoFlow’s select power stations and accessories at up to 49% off + extra savings – deals start from $299

Through June 15, EcoFlow’s Father’s Day Sale is offering up to 49% off a selection of power stations and accessories, complete with 2x EcoCredit rewards and bonus savings, including up to a $1,000 off coupon code for first-time subscribers (free to sign up, more info below). Among the bunch, a more compact, yet still solid camping/road trip support is the RIVER 2 Pro Solar Generator bundle with a 160W panel for $531.05 shippedafter using the extra 5% off code EFFDAFF5 at checkout. Normally costing you $1,098 at full price, we’ve mainly been seeing it keep above $599 with discounts in 2025, while 2024 saw it fall the lowest in initial savings to $549 during Black Friday and Christmas sales. You’re looking at a combined 52% markdown here, which only gets better thanks to the extra savings, giving you a total $567 price cut to the lowest price we have tracked. It’s even beating out the brand’s Amazon storefront, where discounts have only taken things down to $601.

EcoFlow’s Father’s Day Sale has a few more ways to score extra savings aside from using the sitewide 5% off code, EFFDAFF5 at checkout. To start, all the offers on the main sale’s page land you 2x EcoCredits that can be exchanged for discounts and free gear, as well as the member-only pricing (sign up is free) that gives you a little more in initial savings. On the note of membership – first-time subscribers will get an email for two coupon codes, one allows for 5% off on any orders (not stackable with the sitewide code), while the other gives you $1,000 off orders of $10,000 or more. These coupons are non-stackable, and are not valid “on flash items, app-only products, member-only products, power kits, and recommended accessories.”

You can connect up to a maximum of 220W solar input, putting it back at full via the sun’s rays in 3.5 to 4.5 hours.

Rad Power RadTrike e-bike

Dad can enjoy leisurely commutes, errands, and more on Rad Power’s RadTrike at $1,499 (Rare discount)

As part of Rad Power’s ongoing Father’s Day Sale through June 25, which has given us a new $999 low on the RadExpand 5 Folding e-bike, we wanted to shine a spotlight on the rarely discounted RadTrike that is down at $1,499 shipped. Coming down from its usual $1,699 price tag, we saw it get its first discount in over a year back in February, with that same rate coming back around this month for a second-chance savings opportunity. It’s otherwise been keeping at its full price, even during Black Friday, with the deal here giving you a solid $200 markdown and landing it at the second-lowest price we have tracked.

The Rad Power RadTrike makes a great leisurely option for Dads of all ages, especially older and first-time riders. It provides more stability from its three-wheel setup, while also giving you some versatility outside of just getting around, thanks to the integrated rear cargo rack, which makes it ready for errand-running. It comes equipped with a 750W brushless-geared hub motor and a 480Wh battery, maxing out at 14 MPH top speeds with five PAS levels supporting you for up to 55+ miles of travel on a single charge. There is also the half-twist throttle for electric-only riding, though its travel range is lessened when relying solely on this feature.

There’s also plenty of other features that make your journeys all the more relaxing and worry-free, like the puncture-resistant tires, full fender coverage, an LED headlight, an integrated taillight that offers brake lighting, and a simple display for adjusting settings and checking battery levels as you cruise along. It even comes with reverse throttling, letting you back up when needed for added maneuverability.

Be sure to check out Rad Power’s full Father’s Day e-bike Sale lineup, with up to $600 in total savings across five e-bikes.

Greenworks 60V CrossoverT 30-inch riding tractor bundle

Greenworks’ 60V CrossoverT 30-inch riding tractor with bagging system, wall charger, 8.0Ah and 20.0Ah batteries at $3,500

Amazon is offering the first chance at savings on the Greenworks bundle that gives you its 60V 30-inch CrossoverT Riding Lawn Tractor with four 8.0Ah batteries, one 20.0Ah battery, a wall charger, and a rear add-on bagger system for $3,499.99 shipped. This new bundle would normally run you $4,500 at full price, but you’re saving a sizeable $1,000 here while this deal lasts. We don’t often see the brand’s 20.0Ah batteries or the bagger system bundled along with any of the riding mowers, making this all the more exceptional of an offer, especially when considering that the usual bundle on this mower with the 8.0Ah batteries and wall charger normally goes for this same rate at full price. What’s more, it’s beating out the brand’s direct website, where this package is seeing no discounts.

The most compact of Greenworks’ riding mowers, this 60V 30-inch CrossoverT riding lawn tractor package brings even more to the table thanks to the extra 20.0Ah battery, wall charger, and bagging system. The four 8.0Ah batteries give it enough power to tackle up to 1.5 acres (while the additional 20.0Ah model bumps things as high as 2.8 acres) on a single charge that is cut down thanks to the wall charger over the typical port chargers. It has a heavy-duty stamped steel deck with an integrated deck wash port, making it easier to clean out its underside. There are 7 cutting height positions (1.5 to 4.5 inches), as well as the functionality for bagging, side discharging, and mulching – the latter of which can be switched to immediately with its on-demand lever.

But that’s not all that’s been packed in here, as its also sports the brand’s SmartCut Technology that auto-adapts to your grass conditions so that performance is optimized for the best possible cut on a single pass. Other features include the LED headlights for working in low-light conditions, a customizable comfort seat, a cup/phone holder, and USB (type A and C) charging ports to keep your devices juiced up as you ride – great if you prefer listening to music or some other media as you work.

EGO Power+ 56V 5.0Ah Battery

Gain more interchangeable power for your EGO Power+ arsenal with the 56V 5.0Ah battery at $199

Amazon is offering the EGO Power+ 56V 5.0Ah Battery for $199 shipped in a limited-stock Lightning deal. Normally fetching $299 at full price, we’ve mainly seen discounts keeping things above $224 recently, though there have been a few falls lower to $210 that have popped up, most recently in April. While we have seen it fall lower by a few dollars in the past, you’re otherwise looking at the best price we have tracked in 2025, which gives you $100 in savings at the third-lowest price overall – just $4 above the low.

One of the greatest features across most of EGO’s electric tools is the interchangeable 56V batteries that can be swapped out for longer runtimes and added convenience, especially if you’ve built up a sizeable arsenal – and the deal here is the perfect way to stock up. This 5.0Ah model is a solid mid-range size option that provides ample juice for various jobs, complete with a fuel gauge indicator light to keep you informed of its remaining levels as you work. Keep in mind that you won’t be getting a charger along with it, but you can check out all the available sizes and bundle options for this brand’s batteries on the landing page here.

EGO Power+ 56V 15-inch Cordless Carbon Fiber POWERLOAD String Trimmer

EGO’s carbon fiber 56V 15-inch cordless POWERLOAD string trimmer hits best price of the year at $239

Amazon is offering the best price of the year on the EGO Power+ 56V 15-inch Cordless Carbon Fiber POWERLOAD String Trimmer with a 4.0Ah battery for $239 shipped. Coming down from its $269 price tag, this feature-packed model has not seen any savings from Amazon since July 2024, when it fell $10 higher. Today’s deal comes in with $30 cut from the price, which lands costs at the best price we’ve tracked over the last year, and the third-lowest overall – just $40 above the low.

This string trimmer from EGO comes sporting a carbon fiber split-shaft design for maximum durability, complemented by the IPX4 weather-resistant build that can stand up to sudden weather changes while you’re in the middle of a job. It provides you with a 15-inch cutting swath, with broken string lines all the easier to replace with the POWERLOAD tech, which automatically winds things as you feed a new line in at the press of a button. There’s also the variable speed control for quick speed adjustments based on the conditions you’re working in/around, as well as the included 4.0Ah battery and charger coming protected from overheating by their fan-cooled charging systems.

Tesla Semi efficiency improves in real-world trucking test covering 4,494 miles over 3 weeks

Tesla Semi efficiency improves in real-world trucking test covering 4,494 miles over 3 weeks

The Tesla Semi, Tesla’s electric Class 8 semi-truck, saw its efficiency improve in a new real-world trucking test covering 4,494 miles over three weeks.

The Tesla Semi underwent significant changes over the years of delays.

Tesla officially unveiled the “production version” in 2022, but the vehicle never entered volume production. It is expected to finally happen at the end of the year at a new factory in Nevada.

When unveiling the “production version”, which turned out not to be the final production version, Elon Musk said that the Tesla Semi has an efficiency of 1.7 kWh per mile.

In September 2024, Tesla reported improvements in its own fleet after covering 250,000 miles. It claimed to be achieving 1.6 kWh per mile.

Last year, two Tesla Semi customers got closer to what Musk claimed in 2022. DHL got 1.72 kWh per mile in their own test, and Saia got 1.73 kWh per mile.

Now, Tesla Semi appears to have improved quite a bit in a new real-world test by logistics company ArcBest.

The company claims to have put Tesla Semi through regular operations, varying from lane dispatch to regional runs over three weeks:

Over a three-week period, ABF operated a Tesla Semi across typical dispatch lanes, including over-the-road routes between service centers in Reno, Nevada and Sacramento, California. The pilot also included regional runs in the Bay Area and rail shuttle operations.

ArcBest claims that Tesla Semi averaged 1.55 kWh per mile during the three weeks:

The electric Semi logged 4,494 miles, averaging 321 miles per day with an overall energy efficiency of 1.55 kWh per mile.

Efficiency in the trucking business varies considerably based on several factors, including the load, but it is nonetheless an impressive performance.

Dennis Anderson, ArcBest chief innovation officer, commented on the test program:

“Freight transportation is a vital part of the global economy, and we know it also plays a significant role in overall greenhouse gas emissions. While the path to decarbonization presents complex challenges — such as infrastructure needs and alternative fuel development — it also opens the door to innovation. Vehicles like the Tesla Semi highlight the progress being made and expand the boundaries of what’s possible as we work toward a more sustainable future for freight.”

Tesla says that the truck should enter volume production toward the end of the year and customer deliveries are expected to start next year.

While the efficiency of the electric truck has improved, we previously reported that its price has increased significantly.

Range Rover finally has a logo, just in time for the brand’s first electric SUV

Range Rover finally has a logo, just in time for the brand's first electric SUV

Range Rover now has its own logo for the first time. The luxury automaker is unveiling a sleek new look as it gears up to launch its first electric SUV later this year.

Since it launched its first vehicle in 1970, the Range Rover badge has become an iconic status symbol. You can’t miss the classic Range Rover look.

With its first EV due out later this year, the luxury automaker is preparing for a new era. JLR revealed the new Range Rover logo, a first for the luxury automaker, during an investor presentation.

The new logo is a stark contrast to the “Range Rover” badge we are accustomed to seeing, featuring a minimalist design similar to the Rolls-Royce emblem.

JLR told Autocar that the new logo won’t replace the signature Range Rover badge at the front or rear. Instead, it will be used to complement it.

“The Range Rover Motif has been developed as a smaller symbol for where our familiar Range Rover device mark does not fit, such as on a label or as part of a repeating pattern, and within event spaces where an emblem is more appropriate,” the company said.

With Range Rover’s first electric SUV set to hit showrooms later this year, will we see it featured on the new EV? JLR confirmed in May that the Range Rover Electric now has over 61,000 clients on the waitlist.

The company claims the new EV is undergoing “the most intensive testing any Range Rover vehicle has ever endured” ahead of its big debut later this year.

According to Thomas Müller, Range Rover’s executive director of product engineering, the electric SUV is already outperforming some of its top gas-powered models.

JLR has already begun testing new EV production lines at its Solihull, UK, plant in preparation for the new Range Rover model. Next year, the luxury brand is expected to introduce the smaller Sport and Velar EV models.
