Tenways returns new 8-speed CGO600 Pro e-bike with free gear to $1,399 low in New Year sale ($500 off)

Tenways is wishing folks a happy 2025 by launching a New Year flash sale that is bringing back some Black Friday pricing while the month is still fresh, complete with price cuts and extra savings in promo code form. The most notable model benefitting from this sale is the new CGO600 Pro 8-speed chain-drive e-bike for $1,399 shipped, after using the promo code HAPPY2025TW at checkout to save the extra $200. This new model was released back in October carrying a $1,899 price tag, which cut down costs in the brand’s Black Friday and Christmas sales – first to the $1,399 low, next to $1,599. That same low price is returning again today for the second time, saving you $500. Tenways’ more veteran belt-drive CGO600 Pro e-bike is also down at $1,399 shipped, after using the promo code, its second-lowest rate sitting $100 above its Black Friday low. There are also extra savings for medical providers, military members, first responders, and teachers, with verification slashing an additional $150 off your purchase.

Ideal for folks who enjoy active cycling but also want the option for electric support, Tenways’ CGO600 Pro e-bike weighs in at just 37 pounds, making it very manageable in urban environments. You won’t find any throttle on this model, as the cut-down weight partly comes from the smaller 350W rear hub motor and 360Wh battery, which still provide significant support via four PAS levels (activated with a torque sensor) that cover your efforts for up to 53 miles on one charge, topping out at 20 MPH speeds.

As stated before, Tenways offers two drivetrain options for the CGO600 Pro e-bikes – either the Gates carbon belt drive for quieter operations or the new 8-speed Shimano drivetrain (which also gets the brand’s newest motor too). Aside from those big differences, you’ll enjoy the same features elsewhere on the bikes, with internally routed cables for a streamlined look, LED lighting, puncture-proof tires, Tektro dual-piston hydraulic brakes, and a compact OLED display for controls. You’ll also be getting $118 in free gear in the form of lightweight mudguards and a kickstand.

***Note: The prices below have had the additional $200 promo code factored in – but be sure to use it (HAPPY2025TW) at checkout to maximize savings!

ALLPOWERS New Year power station sale

ALLPOWERS is helping folks prep for the rest of the year with its New Year sale through January 26 that is taking up to 48% off its backup power units, with orders also getting an additional 10% struck from the price thanks to the promo code AF2025 being used at checkout, as well as some bonus gifts. One of the brand’s best-selling solar generator packages, the R2500 Portable Power Station paired with a 200W solar panel has been dropped to $1,043.10 shipped, after using the promo code AF2025 at checkout for the additional 10% in savings. This combination would normally cost you $1,599 at full price, with this sale dropping it lower than we’ve ever seen direct from ALLPOWERS. While we have seen it go lower at third-party dealers over on Amazon, this is still a solid $556 in savings, dropping it amongst the lowest tracked rates there.

As we’ve seen with similar sales, aside from the 10% off promo code for your total order, ALLPOWERS is also giving away free gifts at certain thresholds while its New Year sale continues. You’ll receive a free 100W solar panel on orders over $1,800 or a free 200W solar panel on orders over $2,800.

Ready to cover your trips out of the home or even support appliances through blackouts, ALLPOWERS’ R2500 power station offers a 2,016Wh LiFePO4 capacity housed within a streamlined formfactor. It’s capable of power output up to 2,500W regularly through its 14 port options, able to peak up to 4,000W for larger appliance needs. There are four ways to recharge the unit’s own battery, with an AC wall outlet taking 1.3 hours to refill its capacity, or you can solar charge in 2 hours with its maximum 1,000W solar input connected. That timeframe can be cut down further to just one hour if you take advantage of its dual AC and solar capabilities, or you can hook it up to your car when you’re in a bind to fill it by the other means.

***Note: The additional 10% in savings has not been factored into the prices below, as the discount takes the percentage off your cart’s entire order – don’t forget to use the code AF2025 for the best prices!

Camplux electric tankless water heaters

Keep it steamy with Camplux’s 18kW and 27kW electric tankless water heaters at lowest prices from $240

Through its official Amazon storefront, Camplux is offering its 18kW Electric Tankless Water Heater at $239.99 shipped. This unit would normally cost you $350 at full price, with discounts often keeping prices above $280, aside from the one previous drop to the $240 low at the end of summer. Today’s deal is cutting $110 off the going rate, giving you a second chance at the lowest price we have tracked.

Nothing beats a nice hot shower, especially in the middle of winter. Camplux’s 18kW unit not only ensures things stay steamy, but its compact form factor ensures far less space is taken up compared to traditional water heaters. Once installed, according to Camplux, you won’t have to “wait more than 3 seconds to get plenty of hot water,” with the fast-heating low-consumption heating rods boasting “efficiency up to 99.8% and saving 60% water heating costs for your home.” There are plenty of safety protections built right in, like against overheating, anti-dry heating, water-electricity separation, and more. Do keep in mind though that it requires a minimum 0.66GPM water flow to activate, as well as two double-pole 40A breakers, a wire gauge of 2 x 8 AWG, and a 3/4-inch NPT connection.

Of course, depending on your home’s size and the number of people expected to use the shower, or even how many water sources will be supplied from the unit, you may want to consider something bigger. Right now, you can instead grab the Camplux 27kW model down at a new low of $259.99, a drop from its usual $450. Not only does it promise round the clock hot water delivery, but it’s also rated for multiple points of use over small models.

Anker SOLIX C200 DC power bank station

Anker’s new SOLIX C200 DC 60,000mAh power bank station falls to $100 low

Anker’s official Amazon storefront is offering a return to the best rate on its latest SOLIX C200 DC 60,000mAh Power Bank Station going for $99.99 shipped. Normally this newer model would run you $170 at its full rate, which has seen a few discounts since releasing a few months ago, the biggest of which saw a drop to the $100 low with Cyber Monday savings. With this deal coming in today, you’re getting another shot at its Cyber Monday pricing, saving you $70 as it returns to the lowest price we have tracked. It even beats out Anker’s direct website right now, where it is priced at $110.

Anker’s SOLIX C200 DC power bank station is a smaller and more compact version of the brand’s new C300 DC and AC models, coming in with a slightly smaller 60,000mAh/192Wh LiFePO4 capacity. It delivers up to 300W of output power to your devices through its five port options (two USB-As, one 140W USB-C, one 15W USB-C, one car port). You can refill the units own battery via three ways, with its 140W USB-C port giving you an 80% charge in 1.3 hours through a wall outlet, or you can utilize up to 100W of solar input or the car port for 80% in 1.6 hours.

You’ll also find the larger 90,000mAh C300 DC and C300 AC models matching their direct Anker discounts at Amazon for $180 and $200 at the moment. Not only are you getting the expanded 90,000mAh LiFePO4 capacity here, but they also come sporting different variations of built-in lights for camping trips. You can get the full rundown on its other capabilities in our launch coverage here.

Charging network IONNA is partnering with Casey’s, one of the US’s largest convenience store and pizza chains, to bring DC fast charging to EV drivers across the Midwest.

Starting this year, Casey’s customers can plug into IONNA’s 400 kW charging stations while grabbing a slice or stocking up on road-trip essentials. Eight “Rechargeries” are already under construction in six states and are expected to open in 2025:

  • Little Rock, Arkansas
  • Vernon Hills, Illinois
  • McHenry, Illinois
  • Terre Haute, Indiana
  • Parkville, Missouri
  • Kearney, Missouri
  • Blackwell, Oklahoma
  • Waco, Texas

The Casey’s deal pushes IONNA past 900 charging bays in construction or operation — more than double what it had just three months ago. IONNA says the partnership will “expand,” but doesn’t provide specifics.

“This partnership with Casey’s is key to expanding our presence in America’s heartland,” said IONNA CEO Seth Cutler. “With a shared respect and commitment to delivering quality customer experience, we are pleased to add Casey’s to our growing network of partners.”

Google and Anthropic announce cloud deal worth tens of billions of dollars

Google and Anthropic announce cloud deal worth tens of billions of dollars

Google, Anthropic agree to cloud deal worth tens of billions of dollars

Anthropic and Google officially announced their cloud partnership Thursday, a deal that gives the artificial intelligence company access to up to one million of Google’s custom-designed Tensor Processing Units, or TPUs.

The deal, which is worth tens of billions of dollars, is the company’s largest TPU commitment yet and is expected to bring well over a gigawatt of AI compute capacity online in 2026.

Industry estimates peg the cost of a 1-gigawatt data center at around $50 billion, with roughly $35 billion of that typically allocated to chips.

While competitors tout even loftier projections — OpenAI’s 33-gigawatt “Stargate” chief among them — Anthropic’s move is a quiet power play rooted in execution, not spectacle.

Founded by former OpenAI researchers, the company has deliberately adopted a slower, steadier ethos, one that is efficient, diversified, and laser-focused on the enterprise market.

Anthropic launches Claude Sonnet 4.5, its latest AI model

A key to Anthropic’s infrastructure strategy is its multi-cloud architecture.

The company’s Claude family of language models runs across Google’s TPUs, Amazon’s custom Trainium chips, and Nvidia’s GPUs, with each platform assigned to specialized workloads like training, inference, and research.

Google said the TPUs offer Anthropic “strong price-performance and efficiency.”

“Anthropic and Google have a longstanding partnership and this latest expansion will help us continue to grow the compute we need to define the frontier of AI,” said Anthropic CFO Krishna Rao in a release.

Anthropic’s ability to spread workloads across vendors lets it fine-tune for price, performance, and power constraints.

According to a person familiar with the company’s infrastructure strategy, every dollar of compute stretches further under this model than those locked into single-vendor architectures.

Google, for its part, is leaning into the partnership.

“Anthropic’s choice to significantly expand its usage of TPUs reflects the strong price-performance and efficiency its teams have seen with TPUs for several years,” said Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in a release, touting the company’s seventh-generation “Ironwood” accelerator as part of a maturing portfolio.

Claude’s breakneck revenue growth

Anthropic’s escalating compute demand reflects its explosive business growth.

The company’s annual revenue run rate is now approaching $7 billion, and Claude powers more than 300,000 businesses — a staggering 300× increase over the past two years. The number of large customers, each contributing more than $100,000 in run-rate revenue, has grown nearly sevenfold in the past year.

Claude Code, the company’s agentic coding assistant, generated $500 million in annualized revenue within just two months of launch, which Anthropic claims makes it the “fastest-growing product” in history.

While Google is powering Anthropic’s next phase of compute expansion, Amazon remains its most deeply embedded partner.

The retail and cloud giant has invested $8 billion in Anthropic to date, more than double Google’s confirmed $3 billion in equity.

Still, AWS is considered Anthropic’s chief cloud provider, making its influence structural and not just financial.

Its custom-built supercomputer for Claude, known as Project Rainier, runs on Amazon’s Trainium 2 chips. That shift matters not just for speed, but for cost: Trainium avoids the premium margins of other chips, enabling more compute per dollar spent.

AWS outage ripples across internet, puts pressure on Amazon ahead of earnings

Wall Street is already seeing results.

Rothschild & Co Redburn analyst Alex Haissl estimated that Anthropic added one to two percentage points to AWS’s growth in last year’s fourth quarter and this year’s first, with its contribution expected to exceed five points in the second half of 2025.

Wedbush’s Scott Devitt previously told CNBC that once Claude becomes a default tool for enterprise developers, that usage flows directly into AWS revenue — a dynamic he believes will drive AWS growth for “many, many years.”

Google, meanwhile, continues to play a pivotal role. In January, the company agreed to a new $1 billion investment in Anthropic, adding to its previous $2 billion and 10% equity stake.

Critically, Anthropic’s multicloud approach proved resilient during Monday’s AWS outage, which did not impact Claude thanks to its diversified architecture.

Still, Anthropic isn’t playing favorites. The company maintains control over model weights, pricing, and customer data — and has no exclusivity with any cloud provider. That neutral stance could prove key as competition among hyperscalers intensifies.

JB Straubel’s Redwood snags 0M to deploy more US-made battery storage

Redwood Materials, founded by former Tesla CTO and cofounder JB Straubel, has raised $350 million in new funding to scale its US-made battery storage systems and critical materials operations. The company is ramping up to meet surging demand from AI data centers and the clean energy sector.

The oversubscribed Series E round was led by Eclipse, with participation from NVentures, NVIDIA’s venture capital arm, and other new strategic investors.

As global supplies tighten, the US is racing to secure domestic production of critical materials like lithium, nickel, cobalt, and copper. In July, Redwood and GM signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding to turn new and second-life GM batteries into energy storage systems. Redwood launched a new venture in June called Redwood Energy that repurposes both new and used EV battery packs into fast and cost-effective energy storage systems.

Redwood says large-scale battery storage is the fastest and most scalable way to enable new AI data center rollout while unlocking stranded generation capacity and stabilizing the grid. Battery storage also helps industrial facilities electrify and balance renewable energy output. The company aims to deliver a new generation of affordable, US-built energy storage systems designed to serve the grid, heavy industry, and AI data centers, reducing dependence on imported Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries.

Redwood will use the new capital to expand energy storage deployments, refining and materials production capacity, and its engineering and operations teams.
