There has been an influx of power stations in recent months, and even established brands like Anker and UGREEN are getting in on the action. EcoFlow is one of the oldest players in this category, and it has been making power stations — both portable and home-focused models — for a while now. So when the brand asked if I wanted to take a look at the River 2 Max, I was intrigued.
The River series is targeted at portable use, and it includes a range of models — the standard River 2 comes with a 268Wh battery, the River 2 Max I'm looking at has a 512Wh unit, and there's also a River 2 Pro that features a 768Wh battery. All three models include long-lasting Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries that are touted with up to ten years of regular use without any degradation, feature Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, and can be charged in four different ways — including solar power.
