Bluetti’s Christmas Sale offers up to 55% power station discounts + up to 8% exclusive bonus savings from $149

Bluetti is getting into the holiday spirit with its newly launched Christmas Sale that is seeing up to 55% discounts, free gifts, and various exclusive savings codes for our readers only. Among the lineup, one of the notable drops since Bluetti’s Black Friday/Cyber Monday event is the latest Elite 400 Portable Power Station at $1,221.06 shipped, after using the exclusive code 9TO5TOYS6OFF at checkout. This new backup power solution launched during the brand’s early Black Friday sales last month with a $2,999 MSRP that was cut down to $1,409 with exclusive savings. Now, for its second official price cut, we’re seeing an even greater $1,778 markdown to a new all-time low price. Head below to learn more about the sale and browse the entire lineup of deals.

As I mentioned, we’re seeing a number of our exclusive codes riding out through this sales event in the same manner they did for past sales. To start, you’ll be able to score an extra 5% savings on most units across the site by using the code 9TO5TOYS5OFF at checkout. Sadly, the Apex 300 code is not joining the party, but you can score an extra 6% off on the Elite 400 series of units by using the code 9TO5TOYS6OFF at checkout, while purchasing the Pioneer Na(Sodium) series benefits from 8% extra savings using the code 9TO5TOYS8OFF at checkout. You’ll also find various units being offered with FREE additional gear/gifts for even further savings.

Bluetti’s all-new Elite 400 power station offers similar starting capabilities to Anker’s SOLIX F3800 and F3800 Plus units, minus the mountainous expansion possibilities. Complete with a wheeled-and-handled design “that fits like luggage,” this model houses a 3,840Wh LiFePO4 battery setup and produces up to 3,900W to 5,200W of maximum output through its nine ports.

It comes with the usual array of in-app smart controls that you expect, along with four main ways to recharge its battery. You can get back to 80% capacity in up to 1.9 hours, or up to 2.5 hours to fill completely. It also boasts a total 1,000W solar input that can recharge it all in up to six hours, and using that solar capability with an AC outlet gets you to 80% in around 70 minutes (1.8 hours for full). There’s also the option to take advantage of the brand’s alternator charger to top it off as you drive, with it rated to take up to 7.5 hours from empty.

Ford won’t give 2026 Mustang Mach-E buyers a frunk for free

Ford won't give 2026 Mustang Mach-E buyers a frunk for free

The 2026 Mustang Mach-E will not come with a standard frunk, but Ford says you can pay for it.

Ford drops free frunk from 2026 Mustang Mach-E

Because electric vehicles don’t require a massive internal combustion engine, the frunk, or front trunk, is an added bonus.

Nearly every EV has a frunk, but Ford reportedly won’t offer one for the 2026 Mustang Mach-E, at least not for free.

Speaking with The Electric Duo on YouTube recently, Teddy Ankeny, Ford’s new Mustang Mach-E brand manager, said drivers were not using it as much as the company expected.

To save buyers a little money, Ford made it optional. Ankeny explained that Ford revised pricing across the Mach-E lineup to better align with what buyers were looking for. As a result, the 2026 Mustang Mach-E GT is about $1,000 cheaper than the outgoing model, starting at $53,395.

The 2026 Ford Mustang Mach-E Select starts at $37,795, the same as the outgoing model. A new California Edition joins the Mach-E lineup for the first time, starting at $55,890.

To give it its own identity, separate from the two-door Mustang, Ford gave the Mach-E California Edition a distinct Rave Blue color scheme.

The special edition model is built on the Mach-E GT with 280 miles of EPA-estimated driving range, 480 horsepower, and 700 lb-ft of torque.

The 2026 Mustang Mach-E is available to pre-order online and will begin arriving at dealerships in early 2026. Just how much the frunk will cost has yet to be announced.

In terms of specs, the 2026 model year is about the same as the 2025 Mustang Mach-E, but Ford is looking to cut costs anywhere it can, hence the optional Frunk.

Ford is offering other ways to save for those looking to go electric, including through its Ford Power Promise initiative.

The offer includes a free Level 2 home charger (plus standard installation), 24/7 live electric vehicle support, roadside assistance, and an 8-year, 100,000-battery warranty. If you already have a home charger, you can opt for a $2,000 cash bonus.

Interested in a test drive? With the 2026 models coming, Ford is heavily discounting 2025 Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning models with leases starting as low as $219 per month. You can use the links below to find the 2025 and 2026 models in your area.

Jackery’s newest HomePower 3600 Plus station came along to fill the gap between the previously released HomePower 3000 station and the brand’s Explorer 5000 Plus station, which boasts the most expansive capabilities amongst the bunch. It does so with a 3,584Wh LiFePO4 starting battery capacity that can climb up to 21kWh with expansion accessories added on, and delivers up to 3,600W of power (surging as high as 7,200W) through its 10 output ports.

You can also use both AC and DC charging simultaneously, connect a gas generator to take advantage of its bypass charging feature, plug into your car’s auxiliary port, or connect up to 1,000W of solar input.

Trump willing to seize more oil tankers off Venezuela coast, White House official says

Trump willing to seize more oil tankers off Venezuela coast, White House official says

U.S. preparing to seize more ships transporting Venezuelan oil: Reuters

President Donald Trump is willing to seize more oil tankers off the coast of Venezuela, a White House official told CNBC on Thursday.

The U.S. seized a tanker on Wednesday that had allegedly transported oil from Venezuela to Iran. The action comes as Trump escalates pressure on President Nicolás Maduro.

The White House official told CNBC that the Trump administration is always looking to enforce the law.

The oil market has been focused on Ukraine peace talks and so far is not indicating a risk of a major supply disruption. U.S. crude oil fell 86 cents, or 1.47%, to close at $57.60 a barrel. Global benchmark Brent settled at $61.28, down 93 cents, or 1.49%.

Sources told Reuters earlier that U.S. is expected to target more ships transporting Venezuelan crude in the coming weeks. The Treasury Department updated its Venezuela sanctions list on Thursday to include more than a dozen additional people, companies and tankers.

The tanker seized on Wednesday was a Very Large Crude Carrier, or VLCC, identified as the Skipper, Matt Smith, head U.S. analyst at energy consulting firm Kpler, told CNBC. It was loaded covertly with 1.1 million barrels in mid-November and appeared on course for Cuba, Smith said.

The tanker will be taken to a U.S. port and the oil will be seized, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters on Thursday. “However, there is a legal process for the seizure of that oil, and that legal process will be followed,” Leavitt said.

The tanker seizure comes amid a major U.S. military buildup in the Caribbean. The Trump administration has launched a series of deadly strikes in recent months on boats that it says were trafficking drugs to the U.S. Those strikes have been the subject of intense scrutiny in Congress over their legality.

Venezuela is a founding member of OPEC and has the largest proven oil reserves in the world. It is exporting about 749,000 barrels per day this year, with at least half that oil going to China, according to data from Kpler.
