Think of it as a bonus feature: if the power goes out, the speaker will still work without needing to be plugged into a UPS.
Thanks, I'll check it out.

That was how I read it, too, but it still didn't sound as generous as a flat $2 credit, depending on your order of course. For smaller orders the $2 credit could be significantly more than 7% of the total.
If you didn't take Prime delivery, you still got 6% back for using Prime Visa. What Amazon was doing was offering you an extra 1% for no-rush shipping. You'd have to spend $200 for that 1% to equal a $2 digital credit.

Amazon was pulling a fast one with that 7% offer (in reality, an extra 1% over the guaranteed 6%). In my case, Amazon was telling me that it would be cheaper for them to ship it no-rush and for the longer delay in getting it, they were going to give me an extra $0.19.
