ZERO BREEZE Mark 2 is the first real off-grid AC and it’s discounted right now

Zero Breeze Mark 2 real off-grid AC being carried
Zero Breeze

Last summer, and most of last year, really, was one of the hottest on record. This year looks to be just as hot, so you’ll need a reliable way to cool down. The problem with that is that air conditioners are expensive. They’re expensive to install and run, and if you’re living off-grid, you can pretty much forget about AC at all — until now, anyway. ZERO BREEZE has introduced the first truly off-grid air conditioner that’s ultra-portable — at only 16.5 pounds — and battery-powered. The 24-volt battery can last up to eight hours in sleep mode, perfect for extended off-grid use or van-living. You can even connect solar panels or plug it into DC or AC outlets to boost battery life, if and when available. The handheld and lightweight design works exceptionally well for easy transportation and travel, so you can bring the Mark 2 wherever your adventures take you. Use code SPRING15 at checkout through ZERO BREEZE for a limited time to get 15% off your purchase — good from March 15 to March 21.

What can the ZERO BREEZE Mark 2 do for you?

Zero Breeze Mark 2 real off-grid AC in use in tent
Zero Breeze

Summer can be hot and clammy, and it can even get miserably wet if you live in a humid climate.  One of the trade-offs of staying off-grid is that you’re living more efficiently, which also means you’re interested in cutting down on power usage and comparable utilities. Even if that’s not your goal, and you’re just out for an adventure, you’ll have to make the same concessions. The wilderness is, well, the wilderness. But with the Mark 2, a portable, battery-powered AC unit, you can cool off anytime, anywhere.

There is no more wasting gas in your van or wearing down its battery, no more hot and suffocating tents or cabins, and no more overheating. You can simply cool down with the Mark 2 when you need to. The micro twin-cylinder compressor achieves an ideal balance between weight and performance, mainly because it’s the size of a soda can. It ensures efficient, reliable cooling without compromising portability. Indeed, the Mark 2 is portable at just 16.5 pounds, with a built-in carrying handle, convenient power options, and rapid cooling — it can lower the air outlet temperature by 30 degrees in just 10 minutes (2,300 BTUs).

Think about how hot and miserable it can get inside a tent or temporary living quarters at night, never mind during the daytime. The Mark 2 can make it comfortable in a matter of minutes. It can quickly go from being one of the most uncomfortable adventures you’ve ever had to one of the most memorable. And if you’re trying to cut back on fossil fuel energy usage, the solar option is a huge bonus.

From March 15 until March 21, you can get the Mark 2 at a reduced price of 15% off when you use code SPRING15 at checkout. Even without that incredible offer, now’s the best time to buy before it gets swelteringly hot. Do yourself a favor if you plan to spend any time outside exploring this summer: grab a Mark 2 and secure your comfort.

We love this Tribit StormBox speaker for cookouts, beach days, more — $35 off
Tribit StormBox Flow Bluetooth speaker Prime Day deal

It's summertime, which means you may be spending more time outdoors. Maybe you'll be exploring the wilderness, visiting a beach, or doing some camping or fishing. Either way, wouldn't it be nice to have some tunes? You can certainly achieve that thanks to an Amazon Prime Day deal on the Tribit StormBox Flow. It's a fantastic option for cookouts, beach days, and camping because it's tough, waterproof, and built to take a beating. Oh, and it sounds awesome, too. Usually $80, the Tribit StormBox Flow is down to $64 for Prime Day, but you can clip an on-page coupon to get the price even lower, to $45, saving you $35. 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.
