I test portable power stations for a living, and hear from a lot of readers who'd love to get their hands on one, either for use at home as a backup power source or in a truck or RV for camping, but the cost puts them out of reach. I understand -- they're not cheap.
Amazon's Prime Big Deals Day sale (better known as October Prime Day) may not start until Oct. 8, but EcoFlow is kicking off the sale season with some incredible Amazon power station deals on some of the best hardware on the market at prices that will make you look twice. Along with sales of up to 50% off through Oct. 13, there are also a number of daily flash sales worth keeping an eye on.
The only catch is that for some of these deals you have to be an Amazon Prime member to get your hands on the best prices. If you're a high roller and you're looking to spend even bigger bucks on power station hardware, EcoFlow is offering an additional 7% off orders over $3,000, and 9% off orders over $5,000 -- just remember to use the promo codes that are on the page. Here are the best EcoFlow deals I've found so far.
Weighing in at over 60 pounds, this system is best suited to home, RV and car/truck camping, and can power pretty much everything that you can plug into a main AC outlet. The solar panel can push a maximum of 400W into the unit on sunny days, and a good fraction of that on overcast days, so you can enjoy free power.
This is the perfect system to choose as a home backup system or if you want to harvest power using solar and use that to power your home. The system can output a whopping 3,500W of power, enough for the heaviest of workloads. But at 90 pounds this is not something you're going to want to be taking in and out of a car.
This is one of the fastest charging power stations on the market, going from flat to full in under an hour. This makes it perfect for those quick charge situations when you're out and about in an RV or when the power is intermittent. It also charges quietly -- at only 30 dB -- so this isn't going to disturb your sleep.
This is another quick-charging, quiet charging unit that is perfect as either a home backup system or a portable unit for RV use or camping. At only 27 pounds, here is a highly portable unit that you can carry around your home or camp.
This is the perfect portable power station. Weighing in at 7.7 pounds it's highly portable, and the 600W output is good enough to power a decent array of devices. This is so small that you can literally put it into a backpack and hike it to your camp or outdoor work area -- I know, because I've used it to power drones.
Cooling when you're on the move! Whether you want cold cans (a whopping 60 cans of 330ml drinks!), ice cubes, or keeping food chilled when you're off-grid, this is a perfect solution. The bundled 298Wh plug-in battery can power the refrigerator for up to 40 hours.
