Ecoflow River 2
The Ecoflow River 2 I have added to the “Nice to have” items. However for me it is an essential. This is because I work from my motorhome and some items have to be mains powered. So if I don’t have an electrick hook up, The Ecoflow solves the problem for me.
It’s not going to power your airfryer, hairdryer or kettle, although larger power stations are available that will. Such as this one on Amazon. However, if like me, you need to power a few low wattage items, such as printers. The River 2 works perfectly.
This unit provides a selection of power outputs. Including USB, USB-C, 12v and 240v AC. There are also several ways to charge this power station as well. Including 240v mains (which only takes 1 hour to charge) or 12v from your vehicle cigarette lighter socket.
The dispay is very informative, showing how much power is being used and how long it can continue to provide that power until the battery is depleted.
I frequently use this power station to run my Surfcae laptop, thermal printer and ID Card printer. When all 3 of these items are connected to the 240v output, they draw just over 100 watts in total. This leaves the option to connect several other devices and still get nowhere near the max output.
Another plus to motorhome owners, is the fact that this unit only ways 3.5kg it is also quite small and compact. Making it easy to store.
