There's nothing quite as panic-inducing as a sudden summer storm knocking out your power (and possibly your trees), only to leave you sweating in the dark and praying that your phone battery holds out and the milk in your fridge doesn't rot. The only way to make sure this doesn't happen is to buy a generator.

And, right now, you can get Bluetti's newest solar generator kit for just $698.98, down from $899, at Amazon. It hasn't even officially hit the market yet (it releases on July 20), so getting it for 22% off right off the bat is a pretty good deal.

It features a 1024Wh capacity and a 1800W output, which is enough to run 90 percent of your everyday essentials — think laptops, mini-fridges, drones, or a coffee maker when you're desperate. It also has a built-in 10ms UPS switchover, meaning if the power grid fails while you're working from home, it automatically takes over fast enough to keep your WiFi router and PC from crashing. Plus, it only takes 70 minutes to reach a full charge.

If you're completely off-grid or dealing with an extended blackout, you can plug in the included 200W solar panel to get it to an 80 percent charge in about four hours.
