Charging a laptop during a camping trip is a different job from running appliances through an outage. These four Amazon power station deals cover both, starting with a compact $113 Bluetti and reaching more than 3kWh of battery capacity at the top end.

Bluetti Elite 10 Mini – $112.98 (43% off)

Sometimes the missing feature on a power bank is simply somewhere to plug in a laptop charger. The Elite 10 Mini supplies that outlet in a compact package for $112.98, with USB-C charging available too. It’s suited to small electronics on a desk or at a campsite, but the 200W AC limit puts larger appliances out of reach.

AC output200W
USB-C outputUp to 100W

Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 – $499.99 (17% off)

The C1000 Gen 2 is where I’d start for camping trips and occasional outages. At just under $500, it can power equipment the little Bluetti can’t handle, without stepping into the pricier models below. Anker also claims a full recharge in 49 minutes, handy between trips, though that requires enabling UltraFast charging in the app.

Key spec/featureDetails
Battery capacity1,024Wh
Battery chemistryLiFePO4
AC output2,000W continuous; 3,000W peak
Fast chargingClaimed full recharge in 49 minutes with UltraFast mode enabled in the app
Device connections10 outputs

DJI Power 2000 – $759.99 (41% off)

The DJI Power 2000 packs twice the C1000’s battery capacity for another $260, making it a substantial upgrade without crossing $800. Its 3,000W continuous output is the highest in this lineup. Our DJI Power 2000 review covers its performance with appliances and outdoor gear, though its roughly 48-pound weight makes this a deliberate carry rather than a casual grab.

Key spec/featureDetails
Battery capacity2,048Wh
Battery chemistryLiFePO4
Continuous AC output3,000W
AC chargingClaimed 0–80% recharge in 55 minutes
WeightApproximately 48 pounds

Bluetti Elite 300 – $1,098.99 (27% off)

The Elite 300 stores roughly 47% more energy than the DJI, but costs another $339 and has a lower continuous output limit. That makes it the capacity-first choice for running suitable equipment over longer periods. Actual runtime depends on the load and efficiency; the DJI remains the less expensive option for appliances that need more than the Bluetti’s 2,400W ceiling.

Key spec/featureDetails
Battery capacity3,014.4Wh
Battery chemistryLiFePO4
AC output2,400W continuous; 4,800W surge
RV connectionTT-30 outlet, subject to the station’s output limit

Apple Welcome Home product launch event event scheduled for October 13

Apple has another hardware event on the calendar, and the name is doing very little to hide where the company is looking next. Apple’s Senior Vice President of Marketing Greg Joswiak says the “Welcome Home” event will take place on October 13, putting the spotlight squarely on the company’s long-rumored smart home plans.

Three products look like the obvious candidates. Apple is expected to reveal a second-generation HomePod mini, a refreshed Apple TV 4K, and the long-awaited Apple home hub. It could be Apple’s biggest home push in years.

Smart lighting is one of those upgrades I find surprisingly easy to justify. You don't need to remodel a room or buy new furniture. Sometimes, adding a colourful lamp in a dark corner is enough to make the whole space feel different.

Amazon Prime Day 2026 has some interesting smart lighting deals, and I’ve picked five that caught my attention. There’s everything from a simple Alexa-controlled light to recessed ceiling lights, a Govee RGBIC floor lamp, and Philips Hue’s HDMI Sync Box.
