Continuing coverage of BLUETTI Black Friday deals, including one of its latest portable power stations the Elite 200 V2, we have a few more callouts worth taking a look at. Where before the main focus was home battery backup or a solid portable power option for off-grid, these deals are smaller in scope. The BLUETTI AC180 solar portable power station, for instance, features a 1,152-watt-hour capacity, which is not nearly as massive as what you get with the Elite 200 V2, but that’s the point. It’s manageable, has 11 outlets to power multiple devices simultaneously, and has a built-in MPPT charge controller and 500-watt solar input for fast charging via solar. It’s best for use on the go or on the road, just like the BLUETTI Charger 1.

Enough about the gear, let’s talk about those deal prices.

Top Deal: BLUETTI AC180 solar portable power station — now $499, was $569 12% off

The AC180 is lightweight, easily stored, and lends itself well to on-the-go or on-the-road use. It would feel right at home in the back of a van or RV for off-grid power solutions. But where it truly excels is its masterful use of solar power. Thanks to that built-in MPPT charge controller and 500-watt solar input you can charge with suitable panels in 2.8 to 3.3 hours. That’s charging via clean, green, and environmentally friendly power. Impressive.

It also acts as a reliable UPS at home, if you need one, or powers up to eleven devices across a myriad of outlets. Total output is 1,800 watts or 2,700 watts peak with a boost. As you might expect, you can increase the capacity at any time by adding an expansion battery. The BLUETTTI B80 gives you 806 watt-hours per battery, the B230 gives you 2,048 watt-hours per battery, and the B300 gives you 3,072 watt-hours per battery.

BLUETTI Charger 1 high-power auto charger for power stations — now $199, was $399 50% off

Switching gears a little bit, the BLUETTI Charger 1 increases charging power via auto and DC outlets. As you may or may not know, charging a power station through a vehicle is rather slow, especially compared to traditional grid power or even solar. This system makes it charge six times faster, and safely. It also features an auto-off to prevent battery drain so you won’t end up stranded out in the middle of nowhere with a dead vehicle battery. If you live off-grid or travel regularly on the road this is a must-have, so you can keep your power station charged at all times. Might as well charge it while you’re driving if you can, right?

BLUETTI’s latest Elite 200 V2 portable power station gets a discount for launch

BLUETTI Elite 200 V2 portable power station deal -- hero

Typically, when a new launch happens you don't see a significant discount for a while, and for good reason. But perhaps because it's so close to Black Friday and the holiday discounts, BLUETTI just dropped a new release and an incredible deal. The brand-spanking-new Elite 200 V2 is $900 off the regular price. That means you can take home the Elite 200 V2, a 2073.6-watt-hour portable power station, for $1,099, instead of $1,999. That discount is good until December 3rd, so don't wait around if you need one. With another storm brewing off the coast of Florida, now's a good time to get a backup power solution if you don't already have one.

Update 11/6/24: Though this is our first iteration of such a list for the 2024 Black Friday season, we're already quite happy with it. Apple showed up with an affordable Apple Watch (which has fitness tracking that, though on the simpler side, we actually like better than some of its more complex siblings) and the Peloton Guide is $100 off. Plus, we were able to find smart tracking in stationary scale format for just $23, an entry-level price anybody can afford. This is a great start and we're excited to see what is to come...

Despite lingering stereotypes, the tech space and fitness space are quite closely related. And so, for this Black Friday season, we know you may be interested in some great fitness gear. Luckily, while Black Friday officially starts on November 29, you can go ahead and get started on your fitness resolutions way early with early Black Friday deals.

Update 11/11/24: We know that having good home tools is important -- and how expensive they can get -- which is why we're excited to see a lot of great early Black Friday deals on cordless drills. With this update, we've added a couple of new drills that we found, as well as updated all the previous pricing on deals so you're getting the latest information. We should also mention that it's worth checking back as we update this list regularly with new and better deals.

If you're buying anything this Black Friday, there's a big chance you might want a drill/driver to go with it. A drill/driver is one part drill, one part (screw)driver, and it can help out in many situations. For example, say you take part in one of these early Black Friday TV deals, you very well might want to wall mount it. Then, say you grab an easy coffee maker from Keurig's early Black Friday deals. An extra side table in your study would sure go nice with that and a drill/driver could very well make the table's construction much easier.
Really, with so so many of your early Black Friday purchases, there might be a chance to pick up a cordless drill or driver and get to work. As such, we've compiled a list of the best cordless drill deals throughout Black Friday deals that are available now, so you can get a head start on prepping for the savings that are to come.
