Why we like it: Completely automatic with one press! Very sustainable if you already have a La Croix addiction

Ecoflow River 3 Wireless Boost Combo (Costco Exclusive) ($279)

We've owned a lot of power stations, this one is several cuts above the pack for it's additional features. At only 286 kwh, it's not the largest, but it more than makes up for it. Ecoflow sells a few versions of this battery but the Costco variant has a killer feature: the inclusion of (2) 5000 mah Ecoflow Rapid phone battery banks on top. This smaller battery banks are actually slightly differentt than the equivalent pack you'd buy separately, because they includes pogo pin plugs to charge off the main battery. That means you just drop it's slot and it charges up. This means it's easy to always have a handy phone battery charged. While it's in place, you can simply set your phone on top to charge off the magsafe pad on top! While this combo is easy to one hand at just 13.5 lbs, it still features an AC outlet capable of 600W! Capable of responding in less than 10 ms in the case of a power outage, this battery can actually be used as an uninterupted power supply (UPS) for any essentials.

But wait there's more! This combo can be combined with Ecoflow's extra battery to up it's capacity by another 286 kwh or 572 kwh. Tip: the best price for the extra batteries is through Costco's Next program.

Did we mention it has a flashlight on it as well? Perfect for camping, or in a power outage.

Why we like it: Comes with our favorite phone bank, is incredibly versatile

$300+ — Splurge-Worthy

Go big or go home

Brane X Speaker ($449)

If you want to blow someone’s mind with a gift, get them the Brane X. This thing looks like a normal portable speaker, but the first time it hits a bass line, you realize it’s playing in an entirely different league. Brane’s force-balanced subwoofer tech delivers jaw-dropping low end that feels like it shouldn’t be physically possible from something this size—deep, tight, chesty bass without distortion. It’s wireless, it’s room-filling, it’s audiophile-level sound you can carry around the house. If you want to give a speaker that makes every other portable speaker feel boring, this is the one.

Why we like it: We can't emphasize enough, this speaker puts out INSANE bass. It's mind-blowing. Just buy it. As a bonus it can also stream over WiFi so you're not tethered to bluetooth range at your next party.
