Amazon Didn't Sell Enough During Prime Day, So Now It's Offering Google Nest Thermostats at Zero Profit

Gizmodo2 days ago
Prime Day may be finished but Amazon is giving even more this weekend with some of its strongest deals yet. If you missed out earlier in the week and want to save lots of money, now's your time. If you want to save on energy costs and add a bit of comfort and smarts to your living space, the Google Nest thermostat is among the wisest decisions you can make.
Better still, it's now selling at an all-time low—just $85, versus the typical $129.

The Google Nest thermostat is designed to keep you comfortable while saving you energy. As an ENERGY STAR certified device, it's built to waste less and make your home more efficient. One of its best points, perhaps, is that you can schedule an energy-efficient mode directly from the Google Home app for both Android and iPhone. The thermostat turns off automatically when you're away so you're never warming or cooling an unoccupied house. The small adjustments year after year can add up to significant cost savings which makes the Nest Thermostat a worthwhile investment.
It's simple to install in most homes as the Nest thermostat integrates with most systems without the requirement of a C wire. For more specific heating and cooling units (like heat only, cool only, or heat pumps), you may require a C wire or an equivalent power accessory but most people will find it simple and quick. Then, you can command the thermostat from anywhere.
The Google Nest thermostat also features a Savings Finder which looks for even more ways to save. It can provide you with suggestions on changing your schedule as well as help you take advantage of deals and rebates from your energy provider. The unit also comes with HVAC monitoring and keeps an eye on your heating and cooling systems and notifying you if something seems out of place.
The Nest thermostat is compatible with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and all Matter-certified voice assistants so you can easily change the temperature with a simple voice command. If you already have a smart home setup or are just beginning to build one out, this thermostat will be a seamless addition. With the Nest Renew feature, you can also make a contribution towards clean energy efforts by automatically scheduling your energy use when power is cleaner or less expensive.
If you wish to make your home wiser and more efficient, the Google Nest thermostat is something you wouldn't want to pass up.

This Prime Day Deal Slashes $30 Off EcoFlow's Wireless Power Bank

It's always a good idea to have a power bank on hand, and the EcoFlow Rapid Power Bank lets you have it both ways -- you can charge wirelessly or with a USB cable. And with a $30 discount available for July's Prime Day sale, the original price of $70 is now down to $40. That discount is currently available in silver, blue and black colors. This power bank's Qi2 15-watt wireless charging technology allows it to charge two times faster than Qi1 7.5-watt charging. It also has a built-in cable, so you don't have to worry about carrying extra cords. The included 30-watt cable allows you to recharge the power bank from zero to 70% in less than 33 minutes, which is handy when you're in a rush. For wireless charging, it's compatible with the iPhone 12 and later, while wired charging allows it to work with the iPhone 8 and later; Samsung S8 and later; MacBook Pro and Air; the iPad Pro, Mini and Air; and the Apple Watch and Apple AirPods. As a reference, it can charge an iPhone 15 Pro to 50% in 44 minutes. It can also hold enough power to charge that same phone 1.1 times. Thanks to its lightweight, sleek design, the power bank is easy to carry around wherever you go. It has a built-in kickstand so that you can use it hands-free while allowing it to double as a desktop stand for your smartphone. It also comes with a two-year warranty. This is the lowest price we've seen on the 5,000-mAh EcoFlow Rapid Power Bank, and it's available in three colors, so you have some options if you're trying to match it with your phone. With wireless and wired charging available, this model has everything you'd need for charging on the go.
