Temple iPad 2 Smart Case made with WWII canvas and oiled saddle leather

With the iPad out for purchase today, more and more of the brands we love are jumping onto the bandwagon with cases designed specifically for the iPad 2. We love Temple for their quality construction and nostalgic look, and the company’s iPad 2 case combines all of that with details fit to protect and make the most of your iPad 2. The Temple iPad Smart Case ($179) is made from repurposed WWII canvas and oiled saddle leather, making for a rugged look that will set your iPad 2 apart from the sea of bright or black neoprene. A 1/8 inch of closed-cell foam padding makes sure your pad is fully protected, and khaki twill lining adds to the look. A magnetic closure keeps the case secure when not in use, and turns into a multi-purpose stand for both viewing and typing when folded back. Like any smart design, the Temple case allows for maximum functionality of your iPad, with a precision cut-out for the speaker port and a brass eyelet to allow full use of the iPad 2’s new onboard camera.

More BLUETTI Black Friday deals for home power backup and more — Save over $200

Continuing coverage of BLUETTI Black Friday deals, including one of its latest portable power stations the Elite 200 V2, we have a few more callouts worth taking a look at. Where before the main focus was home battery backup or a solid portable power option for off-grid, these deals are smaller in scope. The BLUETTI AC180 solar portable power station, for instance, features a 1,152-watt-hour capacity, which is not nearly as massive as what you get with the Elite 200 V2, but that's the point. It's manageable, has 11 outlets to power multiple devices simultaneously, and has a built-in MPPT charge controller and 500-watt solar input for fast charging via solar. It's best for use on the go or on the road, just like the BLUETTI Charger 1.

Enough about the gear, let's talk about those deal prices. As an aside, right now you can use code DT01 for an extra 5% discount on top of all sale prices. That code is exclusive to Digital Trends readers and applicable to all products on BLUETTI's website.
