Wildfires, tornados, hurricanes, floods, extreme weather. Not to be a fearmonger, but a lot is going on that warrants having a backup or emergency plan for your family. Many of us are beholden to the power grid, for example. When the power goes out or there’s a major event it can be devastating. You can’t use your phone, electronics, appliances, you name it. That is, unless, you’ve planned ahead and secured yourself a backup power solution like a portable power station or solar generator. A solution like the Anker SOLIX F2000 solar generator, which is currently being sold at a discount and in a bundle with a 400-watt solar panel. 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.

Here’s why you might want the Anker SOLIX F2000 solar generator bundle

The best thing about portable power stations and solar generators like the Anker SOLIX F2000 is that they are incredibly versatile. You can use them as a power backup solution in a traditional family home, to power your RV or van adventures, at a campsite, or pretty much anywhere you need. Want to power some tools at a remote job site? You can do that. Need to power a stereo system in your backyard for a family barbecue? Yep, that’s possible too.

The Anker SOLIX F2000 specifically can be connected to the included 400-watt solar panel to charge the device entirely with renewable energy. If you need to charge it faster or via a regular power outlet, you can do that sure, but it’s not necessary. That removes a lot of the limitations you’d have with traditional power. You can travel, explore, or venture anywhere and always have power at the ready.

The Anker SOLIX F2000 has a 2,048-watt-hour capacity with four AC outlets and support for up to 2,400 watts of output. That’s enough to power up to twelve devices at once. It also has an RV port, USB-C charging ports, USB-A, and car outlets. Even use it as a UPS or uninterruptible power supply for your mission-critical electronics or medical devices like a CPAP machine.

The rugged wheels and telescopic handle make it super easy to move around or transport, which is going to make a world of difference at a campsite or while exploring the great outdoors. But more importantly, the bundle is available at a huge discount today. Usually $2,898, the bundle is down to $1,599 so you’ll save $1,299. If you don’t have a portable power system at home, I’d highly recommend getting one. You never know when you’ll need it.

Planning a visit? These national parks will require reservations in 2025
Don't lose your chance at a bucket list national park visit this year
Reflections of mountains at Yosemite National Park

It's one of my biggest nightmares that I'll plan an amazing adventure but accidentally miss a permit or reservation for a bucket list activity. These days, permits and reservations are becoming commonplace at some of our most favorite national parks due to the influx of visitors, so it can sometimes be difficult to keep track of everything. As outdoor enthusiasts gear up for the 2025 season, it's always a good idea to check out which national parks require reservations this year. Here's our top list.
Rocky Mountain National Park resumes timed entry reservations

Starting May 23, 2025, Rocky Mountain National Park is resuming its timed entry reservation system. Last year, there were two types of reservations available: the timed entry and the timed entry plus Bear Lake Road, which offered visitors access to all the destinations along the Bear Lake Road Corridor, including Moraine Park, Sprague Lake, the Glacier Gorge Trailhead, and more. Rocky Mountain National Park will continue these reservation packages into 2025.

Visit Yosemite’s Firefall in 2025 — without a reservation
No reservation? No problem. Here's how to see the Yosemite's Firefall in 2025
Yosemite Firefall at Yosemite National Park in Winter

Every February, Yosemite National Park experiences a Firefall, a natural phenomenon that appears at Horsetail Fall (and one of the reasons winter is a great time to visit). When conditions align, the waterfall glows in vivid orange and red hues at sunset, making it look like the water is on fire. Yosemite needs clear skies, sufficient water flow, and the proper sun angle for this to happen. With this extraordinary event taking place next month, Yosemite National Park is once again implementing a reservation system during the weeks ahead to manage the influx of visitors and protect the park's resources.

50% of these reservations were released back in November, with the rest set to trickle through in the days leading up to the event. However, if you're unfortunate enough not to snag a reservation, here's how you can experience the Firefall in 2025 without one.
