How to compare power station prices and sales

Power station prices can change throughout promotions and product updates. A store's advertised discount shows the reduction from its list price; recent price history helps you see how today's offer compares with what the model has typically cost.

We record prices daily from the official Anker SOLIX, Jackery, BLUETTI, and EcoFlow stores, so you can compare current prices, recorded lows, and battery capacity per dollar in one place.

Three ways to compare value

1. Put today's price alongside its recent history. We compare each model's current price with its trailing 90-day median: the middle of its recorded daily prices over that period. Price-history verdicts begin once we have at least 30 tracked days.

For example, a $450 price is 10% below a $500 median. That gives you a different view of the offer from the store's advertised discount, which uses the list price as its reference. Both comparisons describe the same offer using different starting points.

2. Check the recorded low. Each product page shows the lowest price in our record and when it happened. This helps you see how close today's price is to a previous buying opportunity. A model can return to the same low regularly, so read it alongside the recent median. A recorded low that is also at least 10% below the median receives the Unusually low badge.

3. Compare battery capacity per dollar. Cost per Wh is the current price divided by rated battery capacity in watt-hours. For example, a $500 station with 1,000Wh costs $0.50/Wh; a $600 station with 1,500Wh costs $0.40/Wh. The second offers more rated battery capacity per dollar.

Use the home page value table to compare within a product type and capacity range, or open the full comparison table. Features, build quality, and warranty coverage also affect value; $/Wh measures the battery capacity you get for the price.

What the badges on this site mean

  • Building price history: fewer than 30 tracked days.
  • Unusually low: at least 10% below its own 90-day median.
  • Below recent norm: at least 1% and less than 10% below its 90-day median.
  • Normal price - matches recorded low: at the recorded low while within its normal range.
  • Normal price: otherwise within its normal range.
  • Above normal: more than 10% above its 90-day median.

Where a store advertises a discount, we show it alongside the comparison with the 90-day median so you can see both reference points.

How to use the site

Start with prices below recent norms to find offers that stand out in their own history, or use the value table to compare battery capacity per dollar. Open a model's page for its price chart, recorded low, and link to the store.

Daily snapshots can miss short promotions, so confirm the current price and availability at the store. The methodology page explains our sources, calculations, and coverage in more detail.
