The best early Black Friday outdoor deals at a glance:
Black Friday proper doesn’t actually occur until Nov. 28 this year, but as in years past, plenty of deals started rolling in in early November. You may not think of the Black Friday season as a time to grab outdoor gear, but you’d be surprised how many big price drops we’re already seeing on everything from portable power stations and outdoor speakers to coolers and hydration essentials.
Whether you want to gear up for cold weather adventures, stock up for next spring, or grab some holiday gifts for great prices, ’tis the season to score outdoor deals. We’ll be tracking all of the best outdoor deals below as we get closer to Black Friday and update the list with any new price drops. We’re still waiting to see some popular items get the real deal treatment — like LifeStraw personal water filters, Coleman tents and camping gear, and action cameras from DJI and GoPro. So be sure to check back as we get deeper into the holiday season and follow along with Mashable’s coverage of every category in our Black Friday hub.

Why we like it
A solid mid-range power station, the small and mighty Explorer 2000 v2 is lightweight enough (under 40 pounds) to carry with you on camping trips, boating, tailgating, and other outdoor adventures. It’s also equipped with 2,042Wh capacity, which makes it powerful enough to serve as a home battery backup in emergencies as well. That’s enough power to keep your fridge running for over a day, heat up a meal in the microwave, and brew plenty of cups of coffee. It packs three AC outlets, one USB-A port, and two USB-C ports, as well as a built-in light and super-charge emergency mode on board for a variety of needs. With $800 off, it’s down to its best price on record ahead of Black Friday.
Best outdoor speaker deal
$129.95
at Amazon
$199.95
Save $70
Why we like it
A quality Bluetooth speaker makes a great companion in the great outdoors and the JBL Charge 6 is our favorite. It’s powerful enough to be used for an outdoor party, but still lightweight enough at just 2 pounds to tote around. It even comes with a handy removable strap for ultra portability. Plus, as its name suggests, it can charge other devices via USB-C. We don’t love that it’s $20 more than its predecessor at $199.95, but this early Black Friday deal drops it to a more palatable $129.95 at both Amazon and Best Buy.
