Anker SOLIX Mega Sale offers up to 48% power station discounts + one-day-only C1000X $399 off, AeroGarden, more

A batch of home battery and outdoor gear deals is out this week, worth a look if you have been thinking about backup power for outages. Anker has launched its SOLIX Fan Fest Mega Sale, with portable power stations discounted up to 48 percent, a bonus savings code, and a free power station thrown in on some orders, with prices starting at $190. Separately, Anker is running a one-day deal on its SOLIX C1000X, a 1,024Wh power station, for $480. Portable power stations like these store electricity you can draw on during a blackout, run appliances off-grid, or pair with solar panels.

Bluetti has its own one-day deal on the AC50B, a smaller 488Wh power station, for $259 — a lower-capacity option if you just need to keep a few essentials running rather than power a whole house. Bluetti also has a broader "Emergency Backup Sale" running with several other power station discounts.

Beyond backup power, there are a few home and yard deals worth noting. AeroGarden's Harvest XL indoor hydroponic garden system (a self-contained setup for growing plants indoors without soil) is down to $81, its lowest price yet. The ECOVACS Ultramarine P1, a cordless robot pool cleaner, has hit a new low price. And EGO's 21-inch Select Cut and Touch Drive mower, bundled with two 6.0Ah batteries, is seeing a discount. None of these come with fixed end dates mentioned, so if one fits a project you already have in mind, it is worth checking current pricing soon.
