Memorial Day Sales: Save Big on Chargers, Adapters, Power Banks and More on Woot

Keeping your devices powered has never been more affordable.

From communicating to working, we all rely on our devices for just about everything, which makes it essential to always keep them powered. A good-quality power bank, a charging block or an extra cable can come in handy when you’re running low on battery, but many of these humble accessories can be pricey. If you’re looking to save, we have good news.

Right now Woot is offering charging blocks, cables and wireless chargers for as little a $6 as part of its Memorial Day sale. We’re spotting several must-haves at massive discounts, and these deals are live until May 30 or until supplies run dry — which means you need to act fast.

If you’re in need of a fast charging block, this three-pack of OtterBox 20-watt USB-C chargers costs just $12, and a single one is just $6 right now if you just need one. For reference, one of these charging blocks costs $14 at Amazon. These charging blocks don’t include a USB-C cable, but you can find a set of USB-C to Lightning fast charging cables for older Apple devices marked down to just $15at Woot. And a single one of these cables is now $21, which means you’ll get more value from this Woot deal.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

Other cool finds include this Dumterr 3-in-1 wireless charger for just $10, which saves you $17. For folks with different needs, this Anker power bank two-pack is just $25 now, which saves you $15. Woot also has more OtterBox gear, Samsung chargers and cables at massive discounts, so browse through all the options for your charging needs. We’re staying on top of every Memorial Day deal we possibly can so you can keep saving on essentials under $25 and other products too.

Why this deal matters

Woot typically sells items for far less than its competitors, and the discounts are due to overstocks, returns and bulk sales. These deals on charging accessories represent an even further discount that lets you score essential gadgets for as low as $6. Not only that, but Amazon Prime members can score free shipping, which can help maximize savings.
