Together, you can keep your home, RV, campsite, or wherever, powered up and active, even during an outage. Usually $2,898, the bundle is down to $1,599 today which saves you $1,299.

Still Available: Jackery solar generator deal has two solar panels for $1,400 off

Jackery Solar Generator 2000 Plus early Prime Day deal with two solar panels

The Jackery Solar Generator 2000 Plus is essentially a 2,042-watt-hour portable power station with ultra-fast charging. However, typically, you have to buy the accessories separately when you buy the station. As part of a pretty crazy Prime Day deal, however, you can get the Jackery solar generator and two 200-watt solar panels in a bundle for a ridiculous price. Usually $3,299, the bundle is just $1,899 for a limited time, saving you $1,400. It's a fantastic option for home power backup to keep your necessities on during an outage, but you can also use it for off-grid living, travel if you're on the road, or even around your home -- like to power some electronics in your backyard. The solar panels make it even more versatile as you can charge it virtually anywhere with access to reliable sunlight.

Here's why you should buy the Jackery Solar Generator 2000 Plus bundle with solar panels
We know, we know, it's not officially Prime Day yet. That happens later this week, on July 16 and July 17. It usually makes sense to hold off on buying anything until the main event because you never know how good the deals will be. That said, in the past couple of years, most of the deals have remained the same; if not, many good deals were available early and went away. If you're interested in this Jackery bundle -- an incredible deal -- you might want to shop it soon before it's gone instead of waiting.

EcoFlow DELTA 2 from the side view.

Portable power stations or solar generators are always excellent to have in an emergency or outage situation or just for portable power while you're camping or traveling. There are quite a few options because, admittedly, the market is flooded with them these days, but a mainstay in the business is ECOFLOW. Thanks to an Amazon Prime Day deal, you can grab the ECOFLOW Delta 2 solar generator today for just $479, which is 52% off the regular price of $999. That saves you $520 if you're counting. It has a 1,024-watt-hour capacity, with an expandable capacity of up to 3 kilowatt-hours if you add expansion batteries. That's enough to power for quite a while, and the 1800-watt output can power just about anything from appliances to electronics. I have one, and I love it.

Here's why you should consider the ECOFLOW DELTA 2 Prime Day deal
At half the usual cost, you're getting an incredible deal on a highly-capable power station, or really, solar generator. You can connect solar panels to charge the system anywhere there's sunlight. That frees you from having to stay near home or outlets to charge it, but when you are home, you can charge it that way, too.
