We had a brownout today — probably because of the storm. Luckily, we were ready. Our EcoFlow River 2 Max kept our essentials running smoothly, from work gear to home comfort.
This compact but powerful unit can power your gadgets with the different ports available including:
-
2 AC outlets for appliances like fans or laptops
-
1 USB-C port for fast-charging phones or MacBooks
-
3 USB-A ports for tablets, cameras, or other devices
-
2 DC5521 outlets (great for routers or certain lights)
-
1 car outlet (12V) for devices like portable fridges or air pumps
It delivers up to 500W of power output, with surge support up to 1000W, and a 512Wh battery capacity — enough to last up to 13 hours in our test setup (running a fan, charging phones, and keeping the Wi-Fi online at 88% battery).
It weighs just 6.1 kg, has a sturdy, minimal design, and is very portable. I initially thought 2 AC outlets would be enough, but 3 would’ve been perfect. If you need a bit more power and one more outlet, the River 3 (700W) might be worth looking into, though it costs more.
The best thing about this is it charges up to 100% very fast just over 1 hour under 2 hours of charging.
What made us go with EcoFlow over Bluetti? Mostly the better customer support reputation and a more established ecosystem of products. While it’s not cheap, it’s a real lifesaver during power outages — and for WFH, camping, or emergency use, it’s peace of mind well spent.
Even if this brownout drags on, I’m not stressed. We’ve got the essentials running — fan, Wi-Fi, and fully charged phones. That’s all I need to sleep soundly tonight.
What about you — what’s your backup power setup?
Do I recommend it?
Yes! We are now ready to camp anywhere and if the power goes out again, it will be just like camping at home with the convenience of a chilly fan and wifi!
