The Ecoflow River 2 is a 256Wh power station perfect for off-grid adventures, whether you need a small in-home portable backup or a reliable power source during your camping trips. It features two AC outlets with 300W each (600W surge), two USB Type-A ports, and one USB Type-C port. Recharge it quickly in about an hour using traditional AC power or opt for solar panels with a maximum input of 110W.

While its 256Wh battery won't replace a full generator, it's more than capable of powering your mobile electronics, including laptops, for several hours to days. The River 2 utilizes advanced LiFePO4 cells, offering safer chemistry and a significantly higher cycle lifespan compared to traditional NCM cells. They also age better over time. The only downside is their lower energy density, which results in a slightly heavier unit. However, weighing in at just 7 pounds, the River 2 is impressively lightweight for its capacity.

The River 2 isn't designed as a UPS, but it does come equipped with an EPS function that automatically switches to battery power during outages with a minimal shutoff delay of less than 30ms. This feature is ideal for keeping sensitive electronics like PCs running. However, you'll need to manually switch back to AC power once it returns. While a dedicated UPS with a replaceable battery is ideal, the River 2 can serve as a capable backup.

One of the standout features of the River 2 is its smart functionality with wireless connectivity. You can pair your smartphone with the power station via the Ecoflow app, enabling you to monitor its status, receive updates, and even remotely control the power outlets. Ecoflow is known for its excellent product support and regularly releases new firmware and software updates, ensuring your device stays up-to-date.
