You've probably at least considered investing in a portable power station by now. Also known as a solar generator or backup home power, these reliable and movable power sources can keep your essentials up and running when you don't have access to standard wall power. Of course, they don't come cheap. But for a limited time, a special discount code knocks over 50% off one of our favorite options: the Anker Solix C1000.

As of Jan. 21, when you use the coupon code ANKER610 at checkout (enter it under payment method), you'll knock an extra $90.99 off the Anker Solix C1000 bundled with a 200W solar panel. Already on sale for just $689.99 from $1,299.99, that brings the final price down to only $599. That's a total savings of $700 or 54%, marking a new best-ever price for the bundle.

This do-it-all power station is a Mashable Choice Award winner, thanks to its portability, versatility, and impressive performance. It weighs less than 30 pounds, which is kind of like carrying around a stocked cooler — not exactly lightweight, but maneuverable. Its up to 2,400W output and 11 versatile ports (two USB-C, two USB-A, and six three-pronged AC outlets) can keep plenty of your essential gadgets up and running during tailgates, camping trips, or even if you lose power at home. It's not going to power up your entire home, but it'll deliver power to a space heater, coffee maker, and even a refrigerator. It recharges in less than an hour via wall power, but you can also connect it to the included solar panel if you're off the grid.

Even at full price, our reviewer thinks the Solix C1000 is worth it — at less than half price, it's a helluva deal.
