Today we’re seeing some incredible discounts on everything tech, from laptops to smart home appliances, so be sure to check out the Black Friday deals. Huge retailers are cutting prices on absolutely every category, so if you have a piece of tech in mind, check out the Amazon Black Friday Deals. Right now, this MYQ-G0301 smart garage door opener, from Chamberlain, is available for only $17. That’s $23 off its regular price of $40. That’s an incredible deal!

Chamberlain is a phenomenal maker of smart home gadgets, and we named this to our list of best smart garage door openers for its much-improved design, connectivity, and its customization abilities. This is really one of the smartest and easiest garage door openers out there, so seeing it available for only $17 was more than enough impetus to inform readers right away.

The MYQ-G0301 can do much more than just open and close your garage door, from anywhere, any time. Through MyQ’s apps and devices, you can learn the status of your garage door. You’ll know if someone (maybe even you) left it open by accident, even just halfway. You’ll also have the ability to schedule your garage door opening at specific times of day, which can be a lifesaver if you have guests, for when the kids get home from school, for package deliveries, and so much more. We also love it that the Chamberlain MYQ-G0301can connect to Google Assistant. There is a subscription fee for this service, of one dollar per month, but it allows you to operate your garage door with just your voice, and link it to your smart home system.

When you talk about a big-capacity home battery, your first thought might be a bulky unit set against a garage wall. But Anker is putting wheels on it to make it a little more mobile. The new Anker SOLIX S5000 is a 5,024Wh portable power station that pairs 4,500W of rated output with 120V and 240V support, built-in wheels, and a telescoping handle.

As per official claims, a single unit can keep a collection of essential household devices running for 48 hours during an outage, while additional batteries can expand the system from 5kWh all the way to 30kWh.
