I have tested a ton of solar generators and, at this point, I recommend them to pretty much everyone I know. These powerful backup batteries can save the day in an emergency, or just make a camping trip or outdoor party a lot more enjoyable. Solar generators aren’t cheap, but they typically experience huge discounts on Black Friday. This year, the deals are particularly outrageous, dropping prices lower than we’ve seen this year—and some of these are the lowest prices ever. You want to buy one of these before the emergency comes along, so don’t hesitate on these deals since many of them will likely sell out before they expire.

This is a ton of battery backup for $400. The 1,070Wh capacity battery can charge a typical smartphone up to 74 times or a drone up to 20 times. It also works as an uninterruptible power supply, so you can keep your devices plugged into it, and when the power goes it, it automatically switches to battery power in just 20 milliseconds. That’s crucial for things like routers or mini fridges. This package weighs less than 25 pounds and you’ll never regret having it around when you need it.

Why Trust Popular Science

Popular Science started writing about technology more than 150 years ago. There was no such thing as “gadget writing” when we published our first issue in 1872, but if there was, our mission to demystify the world of innovation for everyday readers means we would have been all over it. Here in the present, PopSci is fully committed to helping readers navigate the increasingly intimidating array of devices on the market right now.

Our writers and editors have combined decades of experience covering and reviewing consumer electronics. We each have our own obsessive specialties—from high-end audio to video games to cameras and beyond—but when we’re reviewing devices outside of our immediate wheelhouses, we do our best to seek out trustworthy voices and opinions to help guide people to the very best recommendations. We know we don’t know everything, but we’re excited to live through the analysis paralysis that internet shopping can spur so readers don’t have to.
