Table of Contents

If you’re like me and prefer to go camping in cooler fall temps instead of the sweltering heat of summer, you’re probably in need of fresh outdoor gear. Now’s the time to stock up, thanks to October Prime Day, which kicked off Oct. 6 and continues until the end of Oct. 7.

Since camping is generally a summer activity, you’ll find even better out-of-season price drops. And we’ve already rummaged through the sale to dig out the very best camping deals, whether you’re searching for upgrades or replacements to your current gear.

These deals will get you outside to enjoy fall colors and cooler temps. Be sure to keep an eye on all of Mashable’s October Prime Day coverage as the sale comes to an end.

Why we like it

I’ve tested dozens of portable power stations while camping over the last few years, and the original Anker Solix C1000 remains a top-tier choice. Now that it’s on sale for under $450, it’s a great time to make the move to camping with power. Keep phones charged, pack the air fryer, or take your laptop workstation into the great outdoors.

The Anker Solix C1000 packs in 1,056Wh of battery capacity and a peak output of 2,400W. Anker included a massive six AC ports, dual USB-A ports, and dual USB-C ports. I also love the onboard lightbar, and it recharges back to 100 percent in under an hour.

Best cooler deal

Why we like it

Finding a Yeti cooler on sale is a rarity, so we had to shout out this 25% off deal for Prime members. The eye-catching ultramarine violet Tundra 45 hard cooler is a beast that can keep ice for days, fit 26 cans with a 2:1 ice-to-contents ratio, and last a lifetime. It’s virtually indestructible, thanks to its rotomolded construction, NeverFail hinge system, and FatWall design. It’s definitely not light; it weighs 23 pounds when it’s empty. But that heftiness is what makes it so sturdy.

Best outdoor speaker deal

Why we like it

On Mashable’s ranking of the best waterproof Bluetooth speakers, the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 4 earns the top spot as the model that’s ready for both outdoor adventures and the shower. Contributor Alex Bracetti’s review says, “The rugged mesh exterior prevents moisture and other hazards from damaging both the inside and outside of the speaker. A 14-hour charge is enough for a month of daily shower use.”

Read our full review of the Anker Nebula Capsule 3.

I pack light — as in, my one carry-on backpack comes in at under 20 pounds. Committing to an extra two pounds of tech was actually a big deal for me, but bringing the Anker Nebula Capsule 3 Laser projector to Japan earned it a permanent place in my travel bag. It projects a 120-inch 1080p display, automatically calibrates its own perfect focus (seriously, it’s undeniably gratifying to watch), and doubles as a Bluetooth speaker with “damn fine” sound quality.

Why we like it

Every great camping trip comes with a home base. The Coleman Instant Cabin is a one-minute setup tent that’s also easy to store. For October Prime Day, the four-person tent is on sale for $149.99. To make things even easier at the campsite, the Coleman tent has pre-attached poles that only need to be extended. Plus, the included rainfly is integrated into the design, making assembly simple.
