Anker PowerPort 4 wall charger (white), $18 with code BEST2142
Anker PowerPort+ 1 wall charger, $17 with code BEST2012
Anker’s travel-friendly PowerPort wall chargers are a great addition to any suitcase or laptop bag, and two different models are on sale today.
Most of you will be interested in the PowerPort 4, which can provide up to 8 amps simultaneously across four ports. I have one of these, and it’s extremely well built, and even includes an LED that changes colors once all of your connected devices are fully charged. Just note that this deal is only valid on the white model.
Owners of a few very specific phones may be interested in the PowerPort+ 1, which includes a single USB-C port with Quick Charge 3.0. That is not the same thing as USB-C Power Delivery, so this isn’t ideal for laptops or other high-draw devices, but it does come with a USB-C cable, which is nice.
Bose SoundLink II Bluetooth headphones, $229
Whether you own an iPhone 7 or not, it’s time to invest in a pair of Bluetooth headphones, and Bose’s around-ear SoundLink IIs are down to $229 on Amazon, an all-time low.
Reviewers say these sound fantastic, and that 15-hour battery is nothing to sneeze at. My favorite feature is a toggle switch that lets you switch between two connected devices without re-pairing, which will save you a ton of hassle if you’re, say, transitioning from a phone during your commute to a laptop at work.
Instant Pot IP-DUO Plus60 pressure cooker, $100
If you don’t own a pressure cooker, today’s a great day to fix that, as Amazon’s knocked the month-old Instant Pot IP-DUO Plus60 down to $99 today, or $20 less than usual.
