Anker's portable backup battery is an even better investment now it's nearly half off

"Winter storms across the country are bringing heavy snow, rain, and - in some cases, as this Californian who briefly lost power a few days ago can attest - outages. If you want to prepare, Anker's 521 PowerHouse can help keep your essential devices running and it's on sale for $129.99 ($120 off) at Amazon. That is about $2 shy of its all-time low price, and the best price we've seen since Black Friday."

"You can charge smaller electronics like phones, tablets, cameras, and laptops multiple times using its two USB-A ports and single USB-C port, but it also features two AC outlets and a car socket. That means it can power low-wattage appliances such as a mini fridge, portable fan or heater (on low), electric blanket, and other gear that draws up to 300 watts."

Anker's 521 PowerHouse is a 256Wh portable power station now priced at $129.99, about $120 off and near its all-time low. The unit includes two USB-A ports, one USB-C port, two AC outlets, and a car socket, enabling multiple charges for phones, tablets, cameras, and laptops and powering low-wattage appliances up to 300 watts. The battery is designed to last up to 10 years and comes with a five-year warranty. The unit weighs about eight pounds, features an integrated handle, a built-in display, and a car charging cable, and can be recharged with compatible solar panels sold separately. Separately, Google's 4K TV Streamer is on sale for $74.99 with Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, Matter, and Thread support, and Silent Hill 2 for PS5 is at a record low $27.39.
