Memorial Day Sale: Prime Members Can Save $30 on This Baseus Blade 6-in-1 Power Strip and Get 2 Free 45W USB-C Chargers

You can now enjoy a steep discount (and some free goodies) on the purchase of this 6-in-1 power strip if you’re quick.

If you’re constantly on your phone and laptop throughout the day, or have a bevy of accessories to keep topped up (like the dying battery on my phone I’ve been needing to replace for three months now) you know that a shortage of electrical outlets and charging ports can be inconvenient. Luckily, Baseus is behind some nifty charging devices that can help solve this issue and make sure every one of your devices can be easily recharged. The best part? You don’t have to pay the full price for a power solution right now, thanks to Memorial Day sales.

Amazon is currently offering a $30 discount on the Baseus Blade 140W charging station to Prime members as a part of its Memorial Day sale, which means you can grab it for just $70. Even better, the retailer is also including two free 45W USB-C chargers with your purchase. Not only is this a great opportunity to save on this charging device, you might also be able to avoid potentially rising costs due to tariffs on electronic devices and accessories.

This Baseus Blade charging station is a 6-in-1 powerhouse with two electrical outlets, one USB-A port and three USB-C ports for a convenient place to charge your laptop, tablet, smartphone, lamp and other necessary work devices. Its smart display also shows you how much power is being distributed per port.

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

Thanks to its GaN technology, this charging station is safe to use and is built to prevent overheating and keep your devices safe. Amazon is also throwing in two 45W charging blocks valued at $35, which makes this deal even sweeter and lets you charge even more devices. Just be sure to click on the on-page offers to add the chargers to your cart. You could also select a couple of other items with this buy one get one free promotion, like two MagSafe power banks, a MagSafe charging station and some open ear headphones.

Why this deal matters

This Baseus Blade 6-in-1 charging station is not only $30 off, it also includes two 45W charging blocks so you can expand your charging options at home or during travels. That makes now a great time to stock up and potentially save before tariffs start affecting the price of electronic goods and accessories.

When does this deal expire?

We don’t have an exact ending date for this deal, but since it’s tied to Memorial Day, it’s likely around only for a short time or until the stock runs out. It could disappear at any moment, so if you’ve been wanting to invest in a power solution, don’t wait up. If you’re looking for even more charging deals, Anker is running a few as well, but none with this level of freebies.
