Tesla universal and standard Wall Connector EV charging stations see rare discount to new lows from $420

Coming to us directly from its official Amazon storefront, Tesla is offering a rare and significant price cut on its Wall Connector EV chargers, with the Universal model down at $550 shipped. Originally carrying a $620 price tag, it permanently fell to $580 back in May and has mainly been kept at that price, while some third-party retailers have offered it at $5 to $10 cheaper occasionally. Today though, you’re looking at the best rate we have tracked to date, as an additional $30 is shaved off the tag here, giving you a rarely occurring drop to a new all-time low price.

It’s not every day that we get this kind of deal on Tesla devices, especially its charging stations, and this Universal Wall Connector delivers a customizable output of up to 48A charging speeds for you to install at your home (or any other space you may frequent), either indoors or outdoors for a completed EV setup. When you install it and set it to its maximum amperage, you’ll be getting upward of 44 miles of travel for each hour that you keep it plugged in, and it utilizes a J1772 adapter to provide recharges to non-Tesla vehicles too. By connecting it to your local Wi-Fi network, you’ll ensure that it can keep itself updated with the latest firmware, which you can also manually control through the Tesla app.

If you’re a Tesla-only household and aren’t concerned with having universal compatibility, you’ll also find Tesla’s standard wall connector at $420, down from $450. Other than the missing J1772 adapter, you’ll be getting the same performance out of this charging station as its above counterpart.

Anker’s new SOLIX C300 90,000mAh portable power stations return to lowest prices for first time from $150

Anker is offering a second chance to score either of its new C300 90,000mAh Portable Power Stations at their lowest rates since launching, with the DC model at $149.99 shipped, and the AC model at $189.99 shipped, which is also matched at Amazon, after clipping the on-page $60 off coupon. Down from their $200 and $250 price tags, We’ve only seen these prices once before during the week-long early bird specials back at the tail-end of August. Since then we’ve seen a few discounts, mainly from Amazon, with the lowest price cut keeping $10 above these low prices. Today you can score them again at their all-time lowest prices while Anker’s ongoing early fall Prime Day sale continues through October 9.

Anker’s SOLIX C300 AC model delivers a 90,000mAh capacity to cover your on-the-go charging needs while also running smaller appliances with a 600W max power output. There are three included AC ports on this model, as opposed to its counterpart DC model that mainly focuses on USB needs, with three USB-C ports, a single USB-A port, and a 120W auxiliary/car port. Unlike the DC model, this one doesn’t offer dual-recharging capabilities but does reach similar speeds when plugged into a standard wall outlet, along with solar charging options. It’s a bit easier to carry thanks to the integrated handle on top, and includes a light bar above the display screen for nighttime support, especially great for when you’re in the dark at a campsite.

The SOLIX C300 DC model offers boosted self-recharging speeds with its two bidirectional 140W USB-C ports being used together to hit 280W. Sharing most of the other qualities with its above sibling, it offers a 120W auxiliary/car port, two USB-A ports, and four USB-C ports – two of which are 140W ports, one being a 100W port, and the last one hitting 15W. It also sports a pop-up LED light in place of the carrying handle with multiple brightness levels. If you’re instead still wanting something smaller, I recommend checking out the PowerCore Reserve 60,000mAh predecessor that is currently sitting at $120.

JetCurrent Pro e-bike

Juiced JetCurrent Pro Foldable e-bike drops to $2,099

Juiced Bikes has dropped the price on its latest JetCurrent Pro Foldable e-bike to $2,099 shipped. Down from its $2,799 price tag, we’ve mainly been seeing this model keep down around $2,299 regularly, with occasional sales taking costs lower for short periods. In August, we saw it $1,954 during a similar weekend sitewide sale, with a “blink-and-you-missed-it” short-term fall to the $1,889 low recently. You’re still looking at a solid $700 markdown that gives you a chance to climb aboard at the third-lowest price that we have tracked.

Juiced’s latest entry into the EV market, the JetCurrent Pro Foldable e-bike, arrives sporting the first of the brand’s folding frames to better help riders save space when not aboard the saddle. Alongside this new feature, it also happens to be the brand’s fastest model released, as the supercharged 1,200W NeoBlade motor (peaking at 2,000W), along with the 52V battery and five levels of pedal assistance, propel the bike up to 34 MPH top speeds and provide a longer 70-mile travel distance. To better support riders, its been given joint torque and cadence sensors to reduce lag time between the system’s pick up, with a throttle included for pure electric action too. There’s an active cruise control feature here to keep speeds under 20 MPH and conserve travel distance, or you can take the opposite approach with its race track mode that turns off its electronic limits to race around at its fastest settings.

Things don’t stop there either, as its been given a 1,050-lumen Shadowblaster headlight for increased visibility at night, as well as 4-inch fat tires with fenders over each, 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes, turn signal functionality on both the front and rear sections, and a separate brake light too. In terms of add-on gear, there’s also the rear cargo rack, a folding mirror, an “automotive grade horn,” a backlit LCD display with a USB port to charge your phone – plus, it even has a security alarm with a wireless remote for your peace of mind.

EcoFlow flash sale saves you up to $1,800 on DELTA Pro and RIVER 2 Pro power station bundles from $599 lows

EcoFlow has launched the next of its 24-hour flash sales from its ongoing Early Prime Big Deal Days sale, with two power station bundles benefitting from up to $1,800 off discounts for the rest of the day. The biggest of savings is coming from the brand’s official Amazon storefront on its DELTA Pro Portable Power Station that comes with a 400W solar panel for $2,399 shipped, after clipping the on-page $1,600 coupon. Normally this package would cost you $4,199, but you’re looking at a combined 43% markdown while the flash sale continues which ultimately saves you $1,800 and gives you the best rate we have tracked to date – beating out July’s previous low by $200.

One of EcoFlow’s larger backup power units on the market, the DELTA Pro station brings you a 3,600Wh capacity that can be further expanded up to 10kWh when paired with multiple dedicated smart extra batteries, or even more to its 25kWh max with additional extra batteries and power stations all linked together. It provides up to 3,600W of steady power output that can grow to 7,200W while surging, with plenty of output ports to ensure devices and appliances remain running – five AC ports, four USB-A ports, two USB-C ports, two DC ports, and a car port. Recharging is fairly quick too, as the station can regain its entire capacity in 1.8 hours connected to a wall outlet, or you can use up to 1,600W of solar input to get a full battery in 2.8 hours.

The second bundle in the sale is on the RIVER 2 Pro Portable Power Station that comes with a 160W solar panel for a return $599 low, down from $1,048. This smaller model sports a 768Wh capacity and a power output of 1,600W thanks to its X-boost tech that allows it to “run 80% of home appliances.” Last minute trips won’t be such a worry with this unit as a wall outlet can fully recharge its battery in just 70 minutes, with additional charging options through solar (220W max), USB-C, or the car port. There’s also the four AC ports, three USB-A ports, and only one of the USB-C ports to connect your devices and appliances to.

Don’t miss out on all the great discounts that EcoFlow’s Prime Deal Days sale is offering until October 7, which you can look through in full here on this landing page.

Hiboy

Hiboy’s EX6 step-thru fat-tire e-bike carries you for up to 70 miles at return $800 low

Best Buy is offering the Hiboy EX6 Step-Thru Fat-Tire e-bike for $799.99 shipped. Normally priced at $1,580 most days, this is the first discount we’ve seen on this model come from Best Buy, after the retailer recently added a whole new array of EV brands to its marketplace in the last few weeks. We’ve only seen this same price show up twice in 2024, first in March over at Amazon, with Hiboy directly lowering costs back in mid-July. Today, you can add this affordable commuter to your garage at a 49% markdown that gives you $780 in savings and lands it at the return all-time lowest price we have tracked – even beating out Hiboy’s current sale that has it discounted to $900.

Whether you’re new to the world of e-bikes or an experienced rider, Hiboy’s EX6 Step-Thru e-bike arrives stocked and ready to support you from where you are to where you need to be – all at a significantly affordable rate too. It’s been given a 500W brushless geared motor and a removable 48V waterproof battery that hits top speeds of 25 MPH while travelling for up to 75 miles (depending on your selected riding mode).

There are three here to balance out needs, with a pedal assist mode for the best mileage benefits, a pure electric mode that does all the work for you, but does cut its travel distance to 41 miles, and a bicycle mode for when you want to get some cardio in. It’s been designed to be ergonomically comfortable for you throughout your entire journey, with additional features that include dual disc brakes, a bright headlight, a 7-speed Shimano derailleur, 20-inch all-terrain fat tires with fenders over each, a hydraulic suspension fork, a rear cargo rack, and an LCD display.

goal zero

Goal Zero’s 78L Alta 80 dual-zone portable electric fridge/freezer drops to new $700 low

Coming to us through its official Amazon storefront, Goal Zero is offering its Alta 80 Portable Fridge and Freezer for $699.97 shipped, after clipping the on-page 30% off coupon. It has spent most of 2024 sitting at its full $1,000 price tag, with only a few amount of discounts taking costs down lower, primarily to $800, while we did spot one fall to $750 during Memorial Day sales. We haven’t seen the price budge for the last three months, but today that trend is being upset by this $300 markdown that takes it further than ever before to carve out a new all-time low price.

While many might consider summer the camping season, there are plenty of folks prepping and gearing up to enjoy nature during the autumn season, and this portable fridge and freezer is a great addition for folks who are taking along a Goal Zero power station for any situation – even for worksite jobs too. Unlike its smaller Alta 50 counterpart, which can switch between refrigerating and freezing your perishables, this larger model sports dual zones to keep both functions running simultaneously. Its massive 78L capacity outsizes most competitor models on the market and holds up to 130 12-ounce cans at once, making it an ideal addition to larger family travel plans. It doesn’t have its own battery, but it does have a cable to connect your Yeti power station for power, and depending on which model you’re connecting, you’ll be able to get up to 12+ days of runtime.

This 50% recycled glass solar panel performs like brand new

Solar panel recycler SOLARCYCLE and Arizona State University just proved that solar panels made with recycled glass work just as well as new ones.

In a new collaboration with Arizona State’s Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering, the solar recycling company created a prototype solar panel – what they call a “mini module”– using 50% recycled glass pulled from end-of-life solar panels. The mini module matched the performance of panels made entirely with new materials.

The research was led by Dr. Zachary Holman, Arizona State’s vice dean for research and innovation, and his team. Researcher Kate Fisher built and tested two sets of panels: one using only new glass, and the other using a 50/50 mix of new and recycled glass cullet. The recycled material came from panels processed using SOLARCYCLE’s technology.

Using industry-standard power conversion efficiency tests, the results were clear: There was no statistically significant difference in how the two types of panels performed.

“This is exactly the kind of result we hope for when industry and academia collaborate,” said Holman. “Together, we proved that you don’t have to sacrifice performance to build solar panels more sustainably.”

This isn’t just a one-off science experiment. SOLARCYCLE says the recycled-glass panel is part of a bigger plan to make solar manufacturing more circular – and less wasteful. The company plans to build a solar glass factory in Cedartown, Georgia, next to its existing recycling factory. It’ll be the first in the world to use recycled cullet like this at commercial scale.

“By proving we can manufacture new solar panels using recycled materials that produce at peak performance levels, we’re taking a major step toward making the solar industry more sustainable, scalable, and self-reliant,” said SOLARCYCLE’s CTO and co-founder, Pablo Dias.

Trump just killed all offshore wind zones as US power needs surge

Trump just killed all offshore wind zones as US power needs surge

Trump offshore wind zones
Photo: Avangrid

Trump’s Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is rescinding every single Wind Energy Area (WEA) in US federal waters, wiping out over 3.5 million acres of zones once earmarked for offshore wind development.

This masochistic move is part of Trump’s January 2025 executive order halting all offshore wind leasing and ordering a review of wind permitting. It follows a new directive from his Interior Department — “Ending Preferential Treatment for Unreliable, Foreign-Controlled Energy Sources.”

This is pure propaganda politics, not energy policy.

Trump has spent years spreading lies about offshore wind farms, from calling them “bird graveyards” to wrongly blaming them for whale deaths. Now his administration is taking a wrecking ball to one of the country’s most promising clean energy industries – just as the aging US grid faces unprecedented strain from climate change, EV adoption, and the explosion of data centers that demand massive electricity.

Offshore wind is not unreliable. It’s already producing clean power for homes and businesses all over the world, including the US. In fact, many of the world’s most successful offshore wind developers — including European firms — have decades of experience building turbines in deep waters and tough weather. These companies work hand-in-hand with US firms, bringing expertise and creating good-paying American jobs, from manufacturing to port construction to long-term operations and maintenance.

The government’s rollback affects critical areas for future wind projects in the Gulf of Maine, New York Bight, Central Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, California, and Oregon. By removing these designated offshore zones, Trump’s BOEM is essentially canceling the roadmap for the US’s offshore wind future – one that would have powered millions of homes, stabilized energy costs, and brought climate benefits when we need them most.

Jason Walsh, executive director of the BlueGreen Alliance, released a statement in response to this destructive decision:

Donald Trump should support the country’s progress and do everything he can to foster more resources for the people. Instead, he is trying to wipe an entire sector of the energy industry off the board at a time when our electric grid is overburdened and electric bills are rising. Attacking offshore wind will put America behind its foreign competitors, kill jobs, and weaken our energy sector.

This isn’t just an energy issue – it’s a jobs issue, a climate issue, and a national competitiveness issue. At a time when we need more power on the grid, more affordable energy, and more tools to fight climate change, the Trump administration is deliberately dismantling a homegrown solution. We will all pay for it with our wallets, and our kids will pay with their futures. Europe and China’s offshore wind industries are leaving the US in the dust.
