Sometimes you lose power when you need it the most. It might be when your phone dies while out on a camping trip, or it could be when the lights go out in your home during a storm. Whatever the case, you need something with plenty of juice that can go anywhere. That's why Amazon is offering the Bluetti AC180 solar generator (and more) for a neat discount.
For a limited time, you can get this portable power bank with expandable solar panels for $679. Typically listed at $1,299, this bundle is now on sale for 48% off. While the solar panels ship separately, you'll still get the cube-shaped charging station with its 11 charging ports and 1800 watt output.

The ports on the AC180 are varied: one DC/PV input, a DC output, a USB-C port, four USB-A ports, and four AC outputs. That means you can plug in everything from a laptop to a refrigerator. There's even a 15-watt wireless charging pad at the top of the station. You can harness more power with the separate solar panels that come with stands to adjust its angles. If you download the Bluetti app, you can control where power from the station goes and turn it on and off remotely.
With over 1,100 five-star ratings and 472 reviews, the AC180 has exceeded expectations. One shopper called it a "lifesaver" and a "reliable and powerful backup power solution" for their home modem and full-sized refrigerator during a power outage.
Another shopper appreciated the variety of ports and the station itself being "easy to move and transport across the room." Another customer put that portability to the test, taking the AC180 on a camping trip and noting it "had no problem running fans all night in the tent."
The Bluetti AC180 is one of the most versatile and powerful power stations you can find, especially at this price. It can be a light in the dark of home emergencies or a great accessory for wilderness adventures. Get it today before the deal powers down.
