Ready or not, spring and summer storms are here. If you tend to worry about losing power during a storm, there's a great deal at Amazon that'll help put your mind at ease while you're studying the upcoming forecast.

As of April 7, the EcoFlow River 3 portable power station is on sale for $159, marked down from the standard price of $259. That's a $100 savings thanks to the 39% discount.

No one loves when the lights flicker and then completely cut out. That means no more streaming Netflix (gotta preserve phone battery) and it's especially concerning if you haven't saved that Excel sheet recently. Instead of stressing, a portable power station can help you ride out the storm.

The compact EcoFlow River 3 is great to keep around at home, offering a 300W output. It weighs just under eight pounds, so it's easy to carry around the home to power up devices — even more so thanks to the built-in carrying handle. EcoFlow mentions this model can keep your WiFi router powered on for about 30 hours, a laptop for about 3.5, a CPAP for almost five hours, and a light for 17 hours. All of these could be a lifesaver if you end up in stormy weather that takes out power.

One of the best features from the EcoFlow River 3 is its ability recharge from 0 to 100% in just one hour on AC power. The same can be said for recharging with a gas-powered generator. It can also be recharged via solar or from your car.

The helpful LCD display shows how much battery percentage remains, the total input/power, and how much time remains before a full recharge. You can also connect the River 3 to the EcoFlow app which gives you mobile access to stats like the remaining power and the ability to turn on power-saving mode.
