Black Diamond’s 400-lumen headlamp offers adjustable brightness, a red night-vision mode, and an IPX8 waterproof rating for wet nights.

Original price: $35 | Savings: $7
Owala’s FreeSip Sway, a staple in our gift guides and my personal daily driver, is on sale at Amazon and Target in several bright colors for $27.99 ($7 off), matching its lowest price to date. I consider the 30-ounce vessel the best of both worlds—it features a built-in straw and a wide-mouth spout for when you want a proper swig. It’s also tapered just enough at the bottom to fit in standard cupholders, which was my biggest gripe with previous models.

Eve Energy Smart Plug (Matter/Thread) — $30
Original price: $40 | Savings: $10
The Eve Energy smart plug supports Matter and Thread for rock-solid connectivity, energy monitoring, and seamless HomeKit integration—no hub required.
