Amazon Prime Day 2024 has concluded, but select deals on useful camping gear can still be found if you know where to look. Great discounts on Merrell hiking shoes , Gerber survival knives , and even sleeping pads are still up for grabs, but select portable power stations can still be found for hundreds less, including this Amazon top 5 bestseller that's an astounding $220 off.

The EF Ecoflow River 2 Pro Portable Power Station is still on sale on Amazon for $379—a 37% discount on the normal $599 price tag. This top-selling unit has earned 400-plus five-star ratings from shoppers who have called it a " game changer " for camping and powering up when the electricity goes out. It's also been purchased over 3,000 times in the last month. And, if you don't want to have to rely on charging it in a wall socket, it's available in a package deal with a 160W solar panel for $220 more—the same price as the power station without the discount.

EF Ecoflow River 2 Pro Portable Power Station, $379 (was $599) on Amazon

The River 2 Pro is an 800-watt power station that is capable of pumping out 1,600 watts of power thanks to EF Ecoflow's X-Boost tech. On a full battery, it can charge up a phone 57 times and even run small appliances like a blender for up to an hour. It features 11 total ports, including four AC outlets, three USB-A ports, two DC outlets, a USB-C port, and a car outlet. You can recharge the unit with solar panels, a USB-C cable, and even with the car, but if plugged into an AC outlet, it'll charge from 0-100 in a lightning-fast 70 minutes.

EF Ecoflow makes a variety of power stations, but one shopper who compared it to the bestselling Delta 2 model said the River 2 Pro might be the best one. "Amazing compact powerhouse for true remote work and adventures," they said. "It was awesome to see that you can use all the ports at the same time and have it chug along with no problem. I was able to charge my iPad Pro, MacBook Pro, Asus G14, Panasonic Camera, Phone, a small battery bank, 12-volt fridge, and even a toaster…Its power capacity, portability, and versatility make it an essential addition to any remote work setup, weekend camping, or emergency preparedness kit."

Many shoppers have turned to the River 2 Pro to keep appliances running in the face of outages. "This battery provided enough power to run a French door refrigerator that my neighbor owns who did not have any backup power during the Houston hurricane power outage," a shopper shared. "This battery provided power for their refrigerator for approximately 5 hours and then they brought it back over to us to recharge it, and back and forth it went for several days. I also used it on a camping trip to supply power for my Bi-PAP machine and it worked great."

Whether you're planning a camping trip or expecting a power outage as summer rages forward, having a fully-charged portable power station like EF Ecoflow's River 2 Pro can make a world of difference. This one won't be on sale forever, so make sure to scoop yours up before it shoots back up in price.
