Is the river 2 a good battery charger?

The River 2 series is designed to be very portable, and is great for any charging or power needs when out and about. Not just for recreation either – it’s well suited for professionals who need to run equipment in the field – especially since it can be combined with solar for charging anywhere.

How does a river 2 power station work?

Here’s how it works. The River 2 is a great little power station that combines a very useful range of features and outputs. It’s portable enough to throw in a backpack or carry to a picnic, but powerful enough to run a camping fridge from solar, or recharge tools and other gear during a day of work or fun.

Can I use a USB-C charger with a river 2 fan?

A workaround is to use a USB-C charger in the 12V socket, but it would be great if the River 2 had a USB-C input only port on the rear. The River 2 fan won’t kick in for USB-C use, but will spool up to high speed if fast charging via AC, or running something that uses a significant amount of the 300W available.

What is the smallest ecoflow power station?

The River 2 is the smallest in EcoFlow's ultraportable River 2 power station series and it has a 256Wh capacity. Note that I tested the Australian spec model, but aside from a different AC plug depending on the country it's sold in, the underlying capabilities are the same.

How fast does the river 2 charge?

When plugged into the wall, the River 2 charges at up to 360W. That's fast, and means it can go from dead flat to full in just an hour – an incredibly handy feature when you need to recharge in a hurry.
