Carbon fiber makes its way to Bluetrek’s lightweight headset

Carbon fiber is perhaps one of the coolest product materials out there. If your product is made with real carbon fiber, you instantly add masculine, technical appeal, not to mention durability. While Bluetooth headsets are a necessity for most businesspeople in fast-paced environments, we wouldn’t exactly say they have much of a cool factor. Until they are small enough that we can simply touch our ears to answer a call like spies on TV, Bluetooth headsets aren’t high on the list of coveted tech accessories. Combine the two and you may not have the most futuristic must-have, but you do have the very first carbon fiber Bluetooth headset by Bluetrek, ($70). It’s not the most eye-catching design we’ve ever seen, but Bluetrek’s use of carbon fiber makes this headset extremely lightweight and thin, a combo that is appealing for any avid user. The headset features Bluetooth 3.0, Noise Lock noise canceling, easy pairing, advanced voice prompts, and a battery status readout that appears on your iPhone. Multipoint technology also allows user to connect to two different Bluetooth devices simultaneously. The headset comes with four different size earbuds, making that annoying ear-hook attachment unnecessary.

Update 11/6/24: Though this is our first iteration of such a list for the 2024 Black Friday season, we're already quite happy with it. Apple showed up with an affordable Apple Watch (which has fitness tracking that, though on the simpler side, we actually like better than some of its more complex siblings) and the Peloton Guide is $100 off. Plus, we were able to find smart tracking in stationary scale format for just $23, an entry-level price anybody can afford. This is a great start and we're excited to see what is to come...

Despite lingering stereotypes, the tech space and fitness space are quite closely related. And so, for this Black Friday season, we know you may be interested in some great fitness gear. Luckily, while Black Friday officially starts on November 29, you can go ahead and get started on your fitness resolutions way early with early Black Friday deals. That means that if the early Black Friday headphones deal you picked up happens to be a good pair of running headphones, now is a fantastic time to pick up an exercise bike or treadmill. Alternatively, now is also a great time to pick up an excellent fitness tracker with early Black Friday smartwatch deals. No matter what your goals, however, the following deals are ripe and ready now, not in a few weeks, so there is no reason to delay your plans.

BLUETTI’s latest Elite 200 V2 portable power station gets a discount for launch
BLUETTI Elite 200 V2 portable power station deal -- hero

Typically, when a new launch happens you don't see a significant discount for a while, and for good reason. But perhaps because it's so close to Black Friday and the holiday discounts, BLUETTI just dropped a new release and an incredible deal. The brand-spanking-new Elite 200 V2 is $900 off the regular price. That means you can take home the Elite 200 V2, a 2073.6-watt-hour portable power station, for $1,099, instead of $1,999. That discount is good until December 3rd, so don't wait around if you need one. With another storm brewing off the coast of Florida, now's a good time to get a backup power solution if you don't already have one.
