(expired: sold out)

RavPower 30,000mAh battery pack with one 90W USB-C power delivery port and one QC 3.0 USB-A port. Add one to the cart for $80, apply coupon code RR232 in the cart, then proceed to checkout. The price is $56 with free shipping.

Charges with a 60W USB-C power adapter (not included). They sell one for $24 with coupon RC33, and must be purchased in a separate order since RavPower.com accepts one coupon per order.

Understand your risks when bringing this to an airport. The 30,000mAh battery exceeds the limit allowed to carry on an airplane. If this device is packed in a carry-on bag, you may be denied entry through security at most airports worldwide.

Ravpower.com - RavPower 20,000mAh Portable Charger with 60W USB-C PD $27
RavPower PD Pioneer 20,000mAh Portable Battery Pack with
- 60W USB-C power output, capable of charging laptop computers and tablets that are compatible with 60-watt (or less) USB-C power delivery.
- 18W QC USB power output.
Includes a USB-C cable.

Price is $54, and code RP21 applies 50% off during checkout:
1. Add one to the cart.
2. View the cart, and type code RP21 in the coupon box
3. Press "Proceed to Checkout"
4. Shipping is free.
This deal beats the previous best price by $7, when it was $34 briefly in April, and the price had previously been steady at $40 to $50 for the last two years. Normal price for a portable battery with 60W USB-C output is about $50, so this deal is 46% off. Other quality battery packs with high-power USB-C output sell for about $75.

Backed by a 30-month warranty. Beware that RavPower has taken a hit since their products were removed by Amazon. As much as we like RavPower and hope their business continues to thrive, it is tough to predict whether they will be around for 30 months.

This power pack needs a 30W USB-C power adapter to charge. If you own a laptop computer that accepts USB-C power, you probably have a compatible power adapter. Tablet owners that have a USB-C power adapter will want to check its specs for 30W or above.

Otherwise, a power adapter is available for $24 with code RC33, and must be purchased in a separate order since RavPower.com accepts one coupon per order.

Also, a RavPower 15,000mAh Battery Pack is available for $20 with code RB231 . Charges up to 3 devices simultaneously.

Newegg.com - Polycom OBi200 Home Telephone Internet Adapter for $40
(repost)

The Polycom OBi200 Voice-over-IP Telephone Adapter is on sale for $40. Normally about $50-60.

The OBi200 connects a regular old telephone (or, cordless phone) with Internet-based telephone service. Uses a free Google Voice account which includes a free phone number, free unlimited calling within the US and Canada, and voicemail with text transcribing.

Note that you can get the same free service by turning an old mobile phone into house phone, by using its wifi. Without paying for mobile phone service or buying the Obi200, join your old phone to your home's wifi network, and download the Google Voice app.

Beware that 911 emergency service does not work with free Google Voice service, but E911 can be added onto the Obi200 for an annual fee of about $20 on the Polycom website when configuring your account. E911 is worth considering for the time-saving (and potentially life-saving) feature of transmiting your home address to dispatchers when someone dials 911 from your phone.

Ecobee.com - Smart Thermostat With Alexa for $200
(repost)

About 2 or 3 times per year, Ecobee drops the price of their Smart Thermostat With Voice Control (formerly titled Ecobee 5) from $250 to $200 for just one week.

The $200 price is available until end of today direct from Ecobee, at Amazon, at Best Buy, at Newegg, and at Lowe's.

Ecobee.com - Smart Thermostat With Alexa for $200
About 2 or 3 times per year, Ecobee drops the price of their Smart Thermostat With Voice Control (formerly titled Ecobee 5) from $250 to $200.

The sale price is available for a limited time direct from Ecobee, at Amazon, at Best Buy, at Newegg, and at Lowe's. If choosing Amazon, you may get $10 off when paying with at least one American Express Membership Rewards point.

This model has an Alexa voice-operated smart speaker built-in. Use your voice to control the thermostat, plus it can play music and answer questions just like an Echo smart speaker. If you already own an Echo or Google smart speaker, those can control the Ecobee too.

Our favorite feature of the Ecobee has been the remote temperature sensor, giving better temperature control where people want it. We put our sensor in our bedroom near where we sleep, and the Ecobee has kept the bedroom temperature consistent at night. Without the temperature sensor, the hallway-located thermostat would rely on its built-in sensor which would often be a different temperature than in our bedroom.

A popular alternative is the Nest Thermostat for $199. A remote sensor can be added for $39. Other than the price, the main difference between Nest and Ecobee is how they are controlled, and the Nest does not have a built-in smart speaker.

Some US states and municipalities are also having tax holidays and energy rebates for people who purchase a product like the Ecobee. The quickest way to find these is to log-in to your Best Buy account, visit Best Buy's Ecobee product page, and look for messages directly under the $199.99 price. For example, Best Buy says that people in Texas get this product tax-free if purchased today (May 31), and other local municipalities also may be giving rebates on Energy Star products when submitting proof of purchase to your electric company.

Also, be sure to look at your electricity provider's website for deals. Some local electric companies sell smart thermostats like the Nest and Ecobee at heavy discounts to their customers, because their comfort features can help save energy.

Ebay.com - Cyberpower 450VA UPS for $38
Electronic Express, a popular Ebay seller with over 99% positive feedback, is selling a CyberPower 450VA (260W) Battery Backup (UPS) for $44. Add one to the cart, begin the checkout process, and apply code PICKSUMMER15 on the page that asks for your payment information (before clicking Confirm & Pay).
