The EcoFlow River 2 Pro has been one of the best portable power stations for camping or light emergency backup solutions, however the market is constantly growing with new competition! EcoFlow is known for making some of the best larger units (like the Delta Pro and the Delta Pro Ultra), but when it comes to smaller ones, we think there's some room for improvement, especially when comparing it to the all new Anker C800X. We would also LOVE to try out all the testing that EcoFlow did when they filmed their video thrashing on the River.. so if this video gets to 1,000 Likes, we will re-create that video! 👨🏼‍💻 The Solar Lab: www.thesolarlab.com We maintain an affiliate relationship with some of the products reviewed, which means we get a small percentage of a sale if you click our links, at no cost to our viewers.

No light? Use a phone a flashlight or headlamp. You’re going camping everyone carries head lamps when you camp

Good vid..you don't need to break things but real world stuff would be helpful. Like normal drop tests, ie. Falling out of a truck to the ground. Maybe some moisture tests for humid days and humid tents and light rain or a drink spill. Dust and dirt. And environmental hot and cold conditions and any effects it may have. Thanks keep up the good info!

200 watts of solar is plenty. Works great to quickly charge my larger Delta Pro 2. Bring your own flashlight. River is small unless the price is right 🎈

I got the normal River 2 (with 300w inverter and UPS, I use it for my wifi and TV) for basically free. I did some extra work looking after kids last summer and the local government gave me a ton of gift cards at the new year. That price was right!

The fan was ramping up and down @6:47 because the load was increasing and decreasing. Pretty simple. More load requires more cooling. If you plugged it in to something that was a constant load, the fan runs at a constant speed according to the load.

Pretty much every Power Station today has an Xboost type feature and they all basically work the same. Its primarily useful for handling spikes when an appliance is turned on. So your main drawbacks noted are: is ugly, boost feature works as advertised. This "review" reads as an advertisment for Anker. The fact that the Anker is a good bit larger really undermines the comparison since the River series is about portability. This entire review really misses the mark.

I was looking at getting the max as it was closer to my budget (on sale for $279) but ended up getting a used Pro from ecoflow on ebay for $299. Hopefully it hasn't been used for the last 8 years 😂

Try turning the screen on in a dark room and you'll find the light! I use mine as a UPS, I had to put electrical tape over the screen. It's blurry, but can still be read quite clearly through the tape!

Who’s buying this for the Xboost? This shouldn’t even be a negative. Just buy something with more watts

Hi, I am curious. It seems that the river 2 pro and I suspect others self drain rather quickly as in 80% over 2 months. Is this due to the bluetooth /wifi searching for a connection, can it be turned of in a hibernation setting ? Thanks

Anker is 7lb heavier and it's bigger. Compare it to the D2. I'll still take the R2P for camping over this Anker.
