Clean energy pioneer Bluetti has a lot of very decent Black Friday deals available until December 3.
Bluetti has made an impressive name for itself with its portable power solutions over the past few years, and it is having fun with its Black Friday offering this year. There are flash sales, lucky draws (spin to win!) various combo offers, free gifts and more on its special Black Friday page. There’s a lot going on, so we combed through them to find our favourites.
The Handsfree backpack is a bit of a standout here. It combines a portable power station, a versatile outdoor backpack with up to 60l capacity, and optional high-efficiency solar panels on some models. This makes it an ideal companion for photographers, drone fliers, and anyone who’s venturing off grid for a while. It feature fast charging, multiple device charging, and has some steep discounts.
There are a range of models and price points here, but you can currently pick up a Handsfree 1 from $269 and a Handsfree 2 for $369. That’s close to 40% off. The Handsfree 1 will give you 300W, 268.8Wh; the Handsfree 2 bumps that up to 700W, 512Wh. That will charge a phone approximately 18x, a camera 23x, a DJI Mavic 3 5x, and a GoPro 27x. The solar panels can charge it up fully in as little as three hours. Weight is a surprisingly decent 7.5kg / 16.5lbs.
Something less portable put packing an impressive amount of power is the Bluetti Elite 200 V2 Portable Power Station (above). This provides a whopping 2073.6Wh capacity and 2600W output, and can power up to nine devices simultaneously keeping all manner of location shoots fully juiced and on schedule. Normal price is $1999, but the Black Friday discount brings it down to $1099, which is one of the more impressive deals we’ve seen this year.
A useful addition to this and any other power stations is the Bluetti Charger 1+DC Input Cable that is perfect for charging charge your power station on the road. This is currently half price at $249 and delivers a max 560W of power—six times faster than that of traditional car chargers.
As we said, lots going on and a lot to see. Head on over to the Bluetti site for a look...
