Amazon Prime Day portable power station deals: what to expect
Show more
We've noticed that the competition in the portable power station market is fierce, which means many products offer extremely similar discounts across Prime Day 2024.
Six of the ten products we've covered here have discounts ranging between $30 and $60, and half of the units here have prices between $240 and $300.
Companies are clearly jostling for position, too, because there's not much stability to be found if you analyze product prices over the last few months – true to their outdoor roots, these products are jumping all over the place. Loads of them are available with coupons as businesses try to entice buyers, too.
While that does mean you're probably going to get a great portable power station deal during Prime Day, it can also make it challenging to find a genuine bargain if you're on the hunt.
To cover yourself, install a browser extension like Keepa or use a website like CamelCamelCamel to check if you're really getting a bargain – or if it's a false economy. And make sure you shop around, because other retailers get in on the Prime Day hype and offer their own deals.
We need to talk seriously about buying portable power stations, too. While many people invest in these for charging devices while camping of powering speakers at parties, they could quite easily be a bit of a lifesaver if something goes wrong on a trip or if there's a power outage at home. And that means you need to be really careful when thinking about what you need from your new device.
Make sure your new power station has a high enough capacity and enough bandwidth to charge all your devices simultaneously if necessary. Ensure it has the right ports and connections for your electronics – including USB-C fast phone charging.
Pick a power station that can be charged by the right methods, too – ideally, get one that can charge from the mains, your car, and a solar panel. Also remember that many manufacturers sell power stations with compatible solar panels as a bundle, too, which is a neat way to keep yourself covered and save a little more money.
You should think about weight and dimensions, LCD displays, flashlights and smartphone compatibility. This kind of product really benefits from delving into the reviews, where you'll likely find first-hand accounts and photographs from people who have experienced these products in real-world situations.
