Anker is a favored brand for outdoor enthusiasts looking to make the most of their power, and at a media event today, Anker Innovations made several announcements that campers, van-lifers, and those who love having a little extra juice at home should take note of. In addition to the debut of new products, the company focused on three key areas: sustainability, community, and eco-innovation. To prove that they mean business, they have pledged to go 100% plastic-free with their packaging by 2027. They are also on track to offset a whopping 30,000 tons of CO2 emissions.

No matter where you live, Anker is on a mission to free you from the clutches of the power grid. The company launched Anker Solix, its entrance into the home energy market. This new brand will include a line of solar balcony solutions (aimed at apartment dwellers) and modular solar battery storage systems. Anker’s existing PowerHouse portable power stations will now be part of Anker Solix’s portfolio.

Of course, what you’re probably wondering most about is Anker’s recently launched offerings —here are a few of their new products.

Get pulsating, punchy beats with 9dB of power, up to 30 hours of battery life and customized equalizer modes through the Tribit app.

 
Why we love the Tribit StormBox Flow for outdoor adventures
First, it's a Bluetooth speaker, and you can't have a decent speaker without good sound. Outperforming many comparable options, the Tribit StormBox Flow sounds incredible, and you don't even have to bother with the Tribit app. It sounds great out of the box. That's thanks to clear treble and pounding bass, which is surprisingly impressive for such a small device. That's made possible by Tribit's proprietary XBoss tuning DSP technology, which helps boost the bass to a 9dB power rating. If you know nothing about specifications, all you need to know is that it's powerful, pulse-pounding and has exceptional audio fidelity.

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.
