Ahead of Black Friday, This 1,000W Solar-Panel Power Station Is at Its Lowest Price Ever

Black Friday is right around the corner: in just a few short weeks, we will be inundated with huge deals on home goods and electronics. It’s typically an excellent time to finally purchase that big ticket item you’ve been toying with getting for the better part of a year.

But what we’re here to tell you now is that if that big ticket item you’ve been waiting to be on sale was specifically an outdoor portable power station, well then you don’t have to wait for after Thanksgiving to finally make that purchase. Amazon is running a limited time deal on a Bluetti 1,000W AC70 power station that doubles as a solar generator (with a 100W solar panel included). It’s 39% off which brings the price down from $899 to just $549.

This 1,000W power station can be recharged over AC power and reaches 80% from zero in just 45 minutes and reaching 100% in an hour and a half. However, if you are outside with it be it camping or on the beach or anywhere else that doesn’t have an accessible wall outlet, the power station includes a 100W solar panel. You can fully recharge the power station in a few hours. You can also charge the generator off of a car socket. That can range between three and seven hours to get fully charged depending on your car’s output.

Monitor the status of your Bluetti AC70 portable generator with the display on the front or through the companion smart app on both iOS and Android. In emergency situations, power can switch over to the power station with a switching time of 0.02 seconds. This allows for your most important devices such as a computer in the middle of a task being able to continue to run without interruption in case of a power failure. Even though the Bluetti AC70 is a 1,000W power station, it can be switched to powerlifting mode to provide a purely resistive load. This is useful for needing to use power intensive devices such as a hairdryer or kettle.

The power station has a massively long life to it as its designed to be able to keep working efficiently after having gone through over 3,000 charging cycles. That’ll be many, many years of charging and recharging before you run into issues.
