VERDICT
For R6 000, EcoFlow provides a premium looking device with the River 2, which includes a LiFePO4 battery, app connectivity and portability to match. Its quiet nature is a big benefit, but even more so is the one hour recharge time and the life cycle of the LiFePO4 battery. Perhaps the cherry on the top is the 5-year warranty that EcoFlow provides locally for the River 2.
