EcoFlow puts the emphasis on portable power with its good-looking River 2 power station. Can it keep up with our local load shedding?
PROS
LiFePO4 battery provides more recharge cycles, 1 hour recharge, good looks, low noise
CONS
Perhaps not as powerful as one would like, only one 3-point connection
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.
