Five weeks before Black Friday, you do not have to wait to get a good price on a power station. Seven models from Jackery, BLUETTI and EcoFlow are selling at the lowest price we have recorded since we began tracking on September 26, from a $499 Jackery to a 4kWh EcoFlow.
Three of them just hit new lows in October. The other four have held their lowest price since late September. Here is each one, who it suits, and the live price as you read this.
- Best for a first power station: Jackery Explorer 1000 v2, $499 on October 17.
- Best for whole-day home backup: BLUETTI Elite 400 or EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3.
- Black Friday may go lower, but these are the best prices of the fall so far.

These three dropped below the price they had in late September and are now at the lowest price we have seen.

With 1,070Wh and 1,500W, it runs a full-size fridge for about 6 hours or a CPAP for about two nights by our estimate, and it is light enough to carry with one hand. That is $60 below Jackery’s list price. More in our Explorer 1000 v2 review.
