Why You Can Trust CNET Forget Prime Day, Save $80 Off This Anker Portable Power Station Today Only
A reliable power station could be essential both inside and outside your home, and now you can get one for less than $190.
Choosing the best portable power station for your needs can be the difference-maker when keeping the lights on during a power cut or getting the party started when you're camping. Choosing the right one means finding the model with the right capacity and ports for your needs while size and weight are also obvious considerations to make. Price is also an important factor, and a deal on the Anker Solix 522 portable power station that slashed the pick up for just $189 is a good place to start. The usual asking price is almost $70, but this limited-time Great Summer Sale deal won't last for long -- Best Buy says the price will go back up to its usual level at the end of the day.
There are often generator deals to be had, but this one has plenty going for it, not only due to the price. The Anker Solix 522 has a 299Wh rating and a degree of portability that isn't always offered by other power stations.
Despite the size, you'll still get plenty of power options. Those include two AC outlets, a USB-A port, two USB-C ports and a DC car port for good measure, so you should be able to use it to charge most of your electronics. Another added benefit of this power station is the quiet-running feature, making it perfect for use at home and outdoors with no nasty fumes or noise to worry about.
If you need a way to take power with you wherever you go or just want to make sure that you aren't left without juice when there's a power cut at home, this could be the perfect solution, though you only have until the end of the day to snag it at this price.
