EcoFlow’s Valentine’s Day sale returns DELTA Pro bundle with two 220W panels and bag to $2,374 low

EcoFlow is showing its customers the love with its newly launched Valentine’s Day sale through February 23 that is taking up to 57% off units, while also providing $100 in bonus savings for every $2,000 spent, as well as an extra 5% off sitewide discount. One notable return is the brand’s DELTA Pro Portable Power Station bundled with two 220W solar panels and a protective bag for $2,374.05 shipped, after using the code 25EFVDAFF at checkout. You’d normally be pressed for $5,096 for this package at full price, but the $2,722 in savings here provide a second chance at the lowest rate we’ve tracked, which beats out even recent Black Friday and Cyber Monday pricing.

One of the most popular and expansive power stations under the brand’s flag, this EcoFlow DELTA Pro solar generator bundle is a great starting kit for your backup needs, able to cover trips, outdoor events, and even appliances during blackouts. The LiFePO4 batteries start with a 3,600Wh capacity that you can further expand up to 25kWh with future investments in add-on equipment. Its 14 ports dish out 3,600W of power output, which will cover most appliances, with things surging up to 7,200W to ensure essential devices stay running.

Plugging the power station into a wall outlet will have the station’s battery recharged in 1.8 hours, or you can refill its capacity in 2.8 hours should you have the maximum 1,600W of solar input available (with the 440W here obviously taking more time). Keeping track of its settings and monitoring charging statuses doesn’t have to keep you nearby either, as the companion app gives you the full array of remote smart controls you’d expect, it just takes a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection.

***Note: The 5% sitewide coupon has not been factored in to the prices below, make sure to enter the code 25EFVDAFF at checkout to score the maximum savings!

EcoFlow Valentine’s Day sale gift picks:

  • Two RAPID 5,000mAh 30W Magnetic Power Banks: $80 (Reg. $140)
    • 15W wireless charging, 30W built-in USB cable

Lectric ONE e-bike

Grab Lectric’s premium ONE long-range e-bike with $308 in free gear and bonus extra battery savings option at $2,199

As part of Lectric’s ongoing Valentine’s Day sale, which you can check out in full in our original coverage here, the brand is offering its ONE Long-Range e-bike at $2,199 shipped with $308 in free gear thrown in too. It seems Lectric is keeping this e-bike down at $2,199 since cutting the price back during October, with this entire package valued at $2,507. While it’s not the largest bundle we’ve seen on this model, it is among the more sizeable ones, with you getting a free rear cargo rack, fenders, mirrors, and an accordion-style folding bike lock along with your purchase. As a bonus offer, Lectric is even taking $200 off the cost of an extra battery (found on-page) that would double its travel distance to 120 miles. You can also save 40% on the Wag-Along Pet Trailer during this sale at $107, down from $179.

The ONE long-range e-bike is Lectric’s premium commuter, sporting upgrades unseen on other models, like the Pinion auto-shifting gearbox, the Gates CDC 113-tooth Carbon Drive Belt System, and the 24A potted motor controller for effortless peaking to its maximum output power. The equipped Sutto 750W rear hub-motor (peaking at 1,310W) provides you with a top speed of either 20 or 28 MPH, depending on your state’s laws, while the 48V 14Ah battery keeps things running for up to 60 miles on a single charge (which increases to 120 miles if you take advantage of the extra battery discount). There are five PWR-supported pedal assistance levels with this model, with lag times between the system cut down thanks to the 96 magnet cadence sensors.

Pure electric cruising is possible thanks to the additional thumb throttle inclusion, with your riding experience further improved from the 20-inch puncture-resistant city tires, an integrated headlight and taillight – plus, hydraulic mineral oil disc brakes, and a new color LCD display. Its sleek look is kept organized via the hidden cable routing, with cargo-hauling needs met thanks to the included free gear, and it never hurts to have a sturdy bike lock if you’re one to want to stop off at the store while you’re out, among the other bonus gear.

Check out the full lineup of Lectric’s Valentine’s Day savings with up to $654 in bundled gear while they last – and passenger packages being offered on the brand’s best-selling XP 3.0 e-bikes.

Greenworks 80V 24-inch two-stage snow blower

Clear an 18-car driveway with Greenworks’ 80V 24-inch cordless two-stage snow blower at $1,400 (Today only)

Coming in via its Deals of the Day, Best Buy is offering the Greenworks 80V 24-inch Cordless Brushless Two-Stage Snow Blower with two 4.0Ah batteries for $1,399.99 shipped. This heavy-duty package would normally cost you $2,000 at full price here and $2,100 direct from Greenworks, with mostly these one-day-only sales being the main source of savings that we’ve seen over the last year, the biggest of which took things to the $1,300 low in February 2024. You can take advantage of the 30% markdown here today to score $600 in savings at the second-lowest price we have tracked – $100 above the all-time low. It’s also beating out Greenworks’ direct pricing, which has it down at $2,000.

Plenty of folks in the Northeast and Midwest are aware that the snow season isn’t over yet, and this 80V heavy-duty solution from Greenworks makes an excellent companion for clearing it out of your way. The digitally-controlled brushless motor comes powered by the two 4.0Ah batteries to clear out an 18-car driveway on a single 60-minute charge using the dual-port turbocharger (with the blower offering a third slot for any existing batteries you may already have). It clears a 24-inch wide path at up to 18 inches deep, tossing the snow up to 50 feet out of the way with its 200-degree rotating chute. There’s also the zero-turn self-propelled hub motor wheels that won’t be bogged down in the powder or ice – plus, the LED lights provide visibility for those darker hours that you’re working.

If you’re looking for a less advanced snow removal device to handle clearing out occasional snowfall, or you just want to save some money over the above unit, you can check out the discounted equipment being offered direct from Greenworks’ site here.

Waymo outlengths Tesla: Elon’s phallic Robotaxi map backfires in Austin’s expansion battle

Waymo outlengths Tesla: Elon's phallic Robotaxi map backfires in Austin's expansion battle

Tesla started a dick measuring contest with Waymo, and it is losing. The Alphabet company is expanding its service area in Austin beyond Tesla’s recently updated penis-shaped service area.

Waymo is taking a few shots at Tesla in the announcement, too.

Last month, Tesla launched its ‘Robotaxi’ service in Austin.

As we have often reported in the last few months, the service is primarily for optics after years of being wrong about Tesla launching unsupervised self-driving in its consumer vehicles, CEO Elon Musk needed a “win” and therefore, Tesla launched a limited service in a small area of Austin, Texas with Tesla employees being in the cars at all-times ready to stop the vehicles.

Advertisement – scroll for more content

The service falls short of the promise that all Tesla vehicles built since 2016 would achieve unsupervised self-driving capabilities, and it’s also not comparable to Waymo’s service, which operates in Austin and several other cities without supervisors inside the vehicles.

Despite the situation, Tesla shareholders are hoping that the automaker is going to be able to scale faster than Waymo and eventually catch up.

They claimed victory when Tesla expanded its service area in Austin this week, but we noted that the expansion, which Tesla intentially made penis-shaped without any practical benefit, did more to illustrate the seriousness of the effort than anything else.

With the joke, Tesla inadvertently start a dick measuring context that it is now losing.

Today, Waymo announced its own service area expansion in Austin and it now covers 90 square miles:

After a successful four months serving riders together, Waymo and Uber are expanding our service territory in Austin – spanning North Austin to South Austin. Starting tomorrow, riders can take fully autonomous rides across 90 square miles of the city, including new neighborhoods like Crestview, Windsor Park, Sunset Valley  Franklin Park, and more, as well as popular destinations like The Domain and McKinney Falls State Park.

Waymo’s service area (blue) is now much bigger than Tesla’s (black):

But more importantly, Waymo’s service operates completely autonomously without any supervisor with a finger on a killswitch inside the vehicle like Tesla.

Waymo is well aware of the difference and poke Tesla in its announcement of the service area expansion:

We’re proud to offer the only fully autonomous, 24/7 experience for anyone in Austin, and are excited to offer more destinations across the city – no waitlists or caveats. In Austin, customers have been enjoying their experience, giving their Waymo trips 4.9 out of 5 on average. There are more than 100 Waymo vehicles on Uber in Austin, and that number will continually grow to hundreds over time.

By “fully autonomous”, Waymo means that it doesn’t have employees inside the vehicles. It also mentions “24/7” as Tesla’s service closes at midnight and also doesn’t operate in some weather conditions.

Waymo now serves more than 700 sq mi across the US, and it continues to expand fast.

Electrek’s Take

Waymo keeps doing its thing. It’s going to take some time, but at one point, Tesla shareholders are going to have to admit that Tesla has the same limitations in expanding its robotaxi service as Waymo does.

The main difference is that Waymo is already way ahead as it completed the phase with in-car supervisors years ago and already operates in a 10x bigger area than Tesla in the US.

It also has about 100x more vehicles.

The idea that Tesla will catch up by mid next year, which is what CEO Elon Musk claimed, is completely ludicrous.

Our readers can score EcoFlow’s most expansive DELTA Pro Ultra station with $2,038 in exclusive savings to new $3,761 low

We’ve secured a great new exclusive deal from Wellbots for our readers on the EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra Portable Power Station for $3,761.10 shipped, after using the exclusive code 9TO5DPU10 at checkout. While it normally goes for $6,098 in full direct from EcoFlow, its starting rate at Wellbots is lower at $5,799. We last secured a similar exclusive cut to $3,799 back in April, which is getting beaten out by the combined $2,038 markdown here, landing down at a new all-time low price for this expansive whole-home backup solution from one of the most popular brands in the game.

EcoFlow’s DELTA Pro Ultra power station is the brand’s best option to gain whole-home backup support due to its modular design that allows you to bolster its capabilities with expansion over time. This unit starts with a 6.1kWh LiFePO4 battery capacity and max 7,200W output ability, which can be expanded upon with added equipment up to a massive 90kWh capacity and 21.6kW output. For context on what this starting setup can do – you’ll get up to two days of essential appliance backup power, which can climb up to 15 straight days when its been invested into a full expanded setup – and that’s not even taking solar charging equipment into mind, which only extends its coverage for even longer with regular sunlight exposure. There’s also the smart home integration that comes once you’ve added the brand’s Smart Home Panel 2 to your home setup, allowing for smart power analysis and roof panel connections.

The DELTA Pro Ultra station’s solar input is also an expandable feature, as it can go from 5.6kW to 16.8kW, or you can recharge it to full via a wall outlet in just two hours, while also having hook-ups for EV piles and generators too. As a note for future plans, investing in its fully expanded system (three Ultra Pro stations + expansion batteries) while also having the maximum solar setup recharging it would give you the power you need to run your entire home for a single day off just one hour of sunny conditions. It also comes with a dust-proof and splash-proof IP54 construction, as well as the durability to stand against severe temperatures from -4 degrees to 113 degrees, making it ready for travel plans to campsites, on RVs, and more.

Rivian announces new East Coast Headquarters coming to Atlanta, Georgia

Rivian headquarters

American automaker Rivian has shared its second release outlining expanded offices this week. Earlier today, Rivian shared plans for a new East Coast Headquarters coming to Atlanta, Georgia. The headquarters will operate near its massive new EV production facility being erected outside the city.

We’re almost having déjà vu on the Rivian news beat this week.

Just yesterday, we shared news that Rivian was planning to open a new international office in London, UK, which will become an AI-centric development hub.

At the time, we pointed out that Rivian currently operates out of a headquarters in Palo Alto, California, alongside its main production facility located in Normal, Illinois. Furthermore, the American automaker is currently in the process of building a second production footprint capable of housing 7,500 employees, located about 40 minutes outside of Atlanta, Georgia.

Other US locations currently include offices in Irvine and Carson, CA, Wittmann, AZ, and Plymouth, MI. Outside of the US, Rivian operates out of offices in Vancouver, BC, Canada, Amsterdam, Netherlands, and Belgrade, Serbia.

Today, Rivian announced a further investment in Georgia, making Atlanta the new home of its East Coast Headquarters.

Rivian’s new headquarters to open in late 2025

Rivian’s second headquarters was announced this afternoon alongside Georgia Governor Brian Kemp and Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens.

The new office space, which is expected to support 500 employees, will occupy the lobby and top floor of the Junction Krog District building, located at 667 Auburn Ave NE, near the Eastside Trail of the Atlanta Beltline. The new headquarters will enable Rivian to operate closer to its pending production facility in Stanton Springs North, outside Atlanta.

With a growing footprint and investment in the Peach State, Rivian has already shared intentions to develop relationships and partnerships with universities, technical colleges, and local, regional, and state institutions. Governor Kemp spoke:

Georgia is a prime location for any company headquarters, and we’re glad to see Rivian will soon join the growing list of brands not only operating in our state but also wholly or partially based in our capital city. They recognize the unmatched value of Georgia’s talent and the location of their East Coast Headquarters in Atlanta is the latest demonstration of their commitment to the Peach State. I look forward to that commitment translating to new jobs and opportunities for hardworking Georgians.

Per Rivian, the new East Coast Headquarters is expected to officially open in late 2025 and employ around 100 people before expanding to 500 employees when fully built and operational.
