EF ECOFLOW Portable Power Station River 3 Plus, 286Wh 760W

My Cyberpower quit on me, and not just that, it _silently_ quit on me: despite having NUT telemetry on the server it was keeping alive, it just cheerfully reports 100% power while behaving exactly like a stock power strip. Instead of getting another pair of acid cells as a sort of surprise-gift for myself in three years when they die again, I started looking for something using 21st century technology. This is what I found. The River 3 Plus claims to be prepared to keep my network and server alive for nine hours, and after running it for two hours that seems pretty much accurate. Bear in mind that's a 25 watt load: your mileage may vary. Plus I can take it with me as portable power. Bluetooth app, HomeAssistant integration, it's a nice bit of hardware. Power changes over fast enough to keep computers and routers alive. No regrets.

Great so far. I like the way it can charge from a car 12V , makes very handy. And able to use multiple low draw appliances, such as a portable water boiler.

I prefer to use this to power those 12 electric coolers or fridges, instead of plugging it directly to the car's 12V outlet. This has enough capacity to run one of those thermo-electric coolers for about 2 to 3 hours or a compressor type for much longer. For longer trips you can charge this from your car's 12 volt outlet. Then, when you stop for a break this will keep your cooler running so you don't have to unplug your cooler while stopped. Just unplug the River 3 Plus from the car's 12v outlet unless it's one that shuts off when the car engine is turned off. It's light weight and is ideal for this purpose. If you want to use this for power fail situations I recommend you step up to one of the Deltas.

I get it, there are manufacturer issues with every product - some don't work, some 'blow up' when plugged in, some fail after a few months of use - but I've had mine for 3 days (so take that into account) - and it's working fine. I use the River 3 Plus as a backup for my internet and TV / DVD player / firestick + one light. I checked the wattage on all devices, 113W. I wanted a backup for power outages for about 2 hours. The River 3 Plue is perfect. I have charged the River 3 Plus, plugged in all power cores - about 7 of them, and powered on. Then I unplugged the R3+ and there was no glitch - all worked fine. I was pleased. The iPhone software takes a bit to understand but a nice interface. I have no issues as long as it keeps performing as it does now. I plan to discharge the battery to 40% every few months. Then charge to 90%. It's a nice unit. update: Both my River 3+ would shut down intermittently. The AC would power off. The factory stepped up, sent me shipping labels and replaced both units - it took a few weeks but they were in constant contact with me during the process. Honestly an A+ for communication. My new units are about a month old with no issues. Yes, a slight smell when new and charging and discharging but it went away soon after a few cycles. These are quality units. Don't expect these to run your refrigerator or something that pulls 400W - and while it may for a few minutes, it will not power it very long. Consider your use, and if you are using these to power 150W or less, it's perfect. Need more power, buy an extended battery or a larger unit. Mine are working great.

I'm using this as a UPS for our modem and router, a Mac Mini, and a Raspberry Pi with Home Assistant. It's working very well. I'm using the HACS ha-ef-ble Bluetooth integration in HA to monitor the UPS. It shows a lot of detail and all basic functions of the UPS can be run from HA. A 12 volt power cable wasn't included in the box. I contacted the seller, they replied right away and said they'd send me one. It arrived today. So far, it's working great. I like it's fast and variable charging and other features.

Not a "Generator". I use it as a UPS because the battery has more capacity and is longer lived. If the power fails, I might use it for my fridge. I wish the app did NOT depend on a web connection. It should just use Bluetooth. What if the company stops service? Google has abandoned apps. Other companies too. Ecoflow might too, ending the ability to change settings or monitor the device.

This little portable power bank is packed with features. It has an impressive 600watt inverter with 3 AC outlets, plus a 12v DC output, and 100watt USB-C PD port. It charges fast from the AC input and accepts up to 220 watts of solar input. It has 10ms UPS switching, and a very well done, intuitive app. It includes a 286wh battery, but can be expanded by adding an external battery pack. It’s well suited for powering and recharging your portable electronics on the go, as well as providing emergency backup power at home. It can easily power a refrigerator for several hours. The only real issues I have with this product are the price games that EcoFlow likes to play. This has been on sale since it released and the price seems to fluctuate constantly ($299, $209, $199, $179, etc...). Also the “X-Boost” marketing feels misleading. There are not many device that require over 600watts that this could power effectively, and if/when it is able to, it will drain the battery in minutes.

This thing charges quickly at home and with a small solar panel will last me 10 days camping with charging lights and phones. So far I have used this for a year with no reliability issues. For the money you can’t beat it.

Funciona excelente, carga muy rapido y puedo conectar mi modem y un ventilador por varias horas

Muy satisfecha con el producto y un 10 de 10 con la entrega
