1$239.00 save 48%$124.87 at AliExpressUse code 'IFP3TXY'The Ecoflow River 2 is a 256WH power station designed for off-grid use, perfect for both in-home portable backup and outdoor or camping adventures. It features two AC outlets with a capacity of 300W each (600W surge), two USB Type-A ports, and one USB Type-C port. Recharging is quick, taking about an hour with traditional AC power, or you can use solar panels with a maximum input of 110W.

While the 256Wh battery may not replace a full generator, it's more than capable of powering your mobile electronics, including laptops, for several hours to days. The River 2 employs advanced LiFePO4 cells, which are safer and offer a longer cycle lifespan compared to the NCM cells found in the original River model. These cells also age better over time, although they do come with the trade-off of lower energy density, resulting in a slightly heavier unit. Despite this, the River 2 remains lightweight at only 7 pounds, which is impressive for its capacity.

The River 2 isn't designed as a UPS for your electronics, but it does include an EPS function that automatically switches to battery power during outages with a minimal shutoff delay of less than 30ms, suitable even for sensitive devices like PCs. Note that you'll need to manually switch back to AC power once it's restored. For dedicated UPS needs, a model with a replaceable battery might be better, but the River 2 serves well in emergencies.

Additionally, the River 2 comes equipped with smart features and wireless connectivity. You can monitor its status, download updates, and remotely control outlets using a mobile app. Ecoflow is known for its robust product support and regular firmware and software updates.
