I have tried MANY portable power stations to find the right unit to run a continuous full time little power station completely running on Solar. This is probably the best, one reason is that it NEVER shuts down when power pull/usage is light. That was critical when running a small shed off the grid. However, you have got to get the thing to report even a slight power pull on the screen. I run a wifi unit and a small tempest relay for weather. They pull a light load that does not show up on the screen as usage. This is unfortunate as the battery life drains despite the screen or app showing no usage. The charging also doesn't show except when its high enough to register. Its my only issue.
We have only done brief testing of solar and AC charging but are very pleased so far. We used it to power a lamp, CD player, and a very small hot plate. I'd be happy to recommend.
So far, this unit seems to function perfectly. I've mostly been using it to power my deep sky astrophotography equipment at night and have been very happy with it. I have a four Ecoflow power stations as well as a 110W, 160w and 4x100 solar panels, and have no complaints about any of these products.
This is my 4th eco flow product! We have the River Max gen 1 and I must say I LOVE all the changes made to it in River 2! We have the River mini as well and I use it for going to the beach on my kayak etc. And at home we have the Delta Mini I highly recommend eco flow products because you simply cannot beat the Re-Charge times. If your money is funny look at eco flows REFURBISHED units and use Klarna or Afterpay! BUT GET SOME POWER IN YOUR HOUSE! You’re Welcome ☺️ ITS A COP!!!
EcoFlow RIVER 2 Max is the best Portable Power Station in competition provides AC output even during solar input charging which most competitor doesn't provide.
