We’ve got huge savings with plenty of new and returning low prices in today’s Green Deals, starting with the changeup pricing from Rad Power’s ongoing sale that is taking up to $500 off six e-bikes, as well as the continuing 50% discount on four accessories accompanying the brand’s newest models. The big shake up though is Rad Power dropping all three RadRunner e-bikes (RadRunner 2, RadRunner Plus, and RadRunner 3 Plus) to new all-time low prices starting from $999. Right behind this sale is EcoFlow’s latest Valentine’s flash sale (today only) that is offering the DELTA 3 Plus Portable Power Station with an 800W alternator charger at its $849 low alongside two DELTA Pro Ultra expansion batteries (adding 12KWh to your setup) at $4,999. Lastly, we spotted Aiper’s latest Surfer S2 Solar Pool Skimmer dropping to a new $320 low after only a month past its release. Plus, all the other hangover Green Deals are in the links at the bottom of the page, like yesterday’s new low price on Heybike’s Hauler Cargo e-bike, NIU’s 40% off KQi e-scooter sale, and more.
