The Jackery Explorer 100 Plus is the smallest portable power station in the range, but it still packs a punch. It has a 31,000mAh battery, around three times the size of most handheld power banks, and it puts out a maximum of 128 watts at a time through its three ports. The Jackery Explorer 100 Plus is a perfect travel companion | Jackery Rechargable through USB-C, it even has a small version of Jackery's brilliant LED display, which lets you know its capacity, how many hours it'll last for, or how many hours it'll take to recharge. It's also incredibly compact. Compared to the other Jackerys in the range, this is seriously small. That's basically because it doesn't have an inverter, so there's no AC output, but its 99Wh battery is made with the same LiFePO4 technology, so it's just as safe and has similar longevity. Normally these units cost around £140, so it's a real surprise to see one for just £79. This is a limited-time deal, and we don't know how long it'll last for. But if you can get one before they sell out, you'll have an incredible bargain.

‘Fastest ever' Kindle that 'makes reading a joy' now £28 off on Amazon
"Brilliant buy. It goes everywhere with me." E-books have taken the world by storm over the past decade or so, and more and more readers are turning to reading on Kindle instead of paperback books. With unlimited literature at your fingertips, it's no wonder that keen readers are deciding to modernise their libraries by going digital. Lucky for those finally looking to branch out into e-reading, or for people looking to update their current Kindle, Amazon's 'fastest ever' e-reader is currently almost £30 off on the retailer's website. The Certified Refurbished Amazon Kindle Paperwhite usually retails at £143.99, but savvy shoppers can currently catch it on a generous 20 per cent discount, for a cheaper £115.19 for the black model. The Kindle is also available in pink for the full price or green for the same discount as the black version. Its seven-inch glare free screen promises an optimum reading experience. Amazon promises that the new Kindle is the company's fastest ever, with a higher contrast ratio on the display and 25 per cent faster page turns, to make sure readers can stay in the moment rather than deal with a lagging screen. Certified Refurbished Amazon Kindle Paperwhite £143.99 £115.19 Amazon Shop Product Description Its thin design makes the gadget easily portable, meaning it won't take up room in bags when on public transport or travelling distances, unlike a bulky paperback or hardback novel. The Kindle doesn't have any social media or annoying notifications, meaning readers can remain fully immersed in their literature. But it's worth noting that this Kindle comes with ads which will be displayed when the gadget is on sleep mode. Its display also comes with adjustable options, so readers can easily see pages in the sun or in the dark with its amber light mode. And for holiday-goers, the Kindle is waterproof, meaning a good book can even be enjoyed on the poolside this summer. Books can be purchased on the Kindle through the Kindle Store, and readers can consider subscribing to Kindle Unlimited for access to an additional wide range of titles at no extra cost. Those considering alternative e-reading devices may consider the Kobo Clara BW 16GB Wi-Fi E-Reader at a slightly pricier £129.99. Or, those after a fancier Kindle may opt for the Amazon Kindle Scribe 2024 10.2In 16GB Wi-Fi E-Reader for £379.99, which allows users to write directly onto documents and pages with a stylus. But the refurbished Kindle Paperwhite is blowing customers away, and it has scored an overall rating of 4.4 stars out of a possible five. In fact, one of our own reporters adores her Kindle so much that she has already read 35 books on it this year. One happy reader said in the Kindle's reviews: "Never been a reader, but a time I tried listening to pages forgot where I was losing book marks. So I thought I would give a kindle a try because I wanted to read more and it was recommended by a friend. With the kindle it a joy to read and easy to use." Another said: "Kindle was well packaged and fast delivery looks brand new." Yet a less happy shopper wrote: "You can't download ALL your books at once, I don't have time to download one by one or even 25 at a time, neither add my 500 books one by one to a new collection and download the whole collection. What's the point of 16gb if you need to download a SINGLE book before read it, if that's the intention then Amazon could sell a 4gb version for less." But another pleased reader said: "Brilliant buy. It goes everywhere with me." The discounted Kindle is available on Amazon. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!
