I have owned and used the Ecoflow wave 2 with the battery in my van for 2 years. I just now figured out the BEST (imo) setup. I park the unit in my garage where I have an AC plug for when I’m on shore power or for when I run the inverter while alternator charging (driving). I vent the hoses out my back door…yes, it will not close and use the long extra hose to snake up to my bed. That long hose can be stretched to force air into my living area and then retracted to force air on me while sleeping. Bottom line, this unit is NEVER going to cool the entire van, but I am very comfy if I position the back end in shade, put my awning out, etc. I discovered that I can run the thing on eco ALL night and still have more than 50% battery left. It took about 1 hour driving to fully charge the battery again. This setup is so much easier than lugging the thing inside and venting out the drivers window and leaves the van so much tidier and it is just as comfortable.

[@ThatguyBBQ]

Hey, just found out a neat trick. Ordered the Wave 2 without the battery. I also ordered just the Delta 2 Max extra battery. I took a chance and sure enough, the Wave 2 charges the extra battery. I wanted more juice than what the Wave 2 battery had. So know I’ll take the extra battery and Wave 2 with me camping. Should last me through the night.

[@Rurik1967]

Great product for Semi Truck drivers. This system a lot cheaper then the $15;000 ThermoKing. Buy a couple batteries, or a 5KW rack battery. Charge while driving run all night on battery power, recharge in morning.

[@deetrucker869]

I run with a Predator generator and charge my Eco Flow Delta Max and extra battery. I’m still using the original Wave and I’m very happy with my set up. Although the original Delta Max has NiCad batteries, it is a beast. I use it for all of my hotel loads.

[@billbradley2480]

I purchased a Wave2 last summer. Used it for cooling my electronics room and during winter I’ve been using it to heat my bedroom. It works great and sips power.

what does "sips power" really mean? I am a scientist so knowing how many wh to cool would help.

[@HOBOTECH]

The original review covers power use.

[@dogishappy0]

​@keithjansen1734 AC units are major energy hogs. The Wave 2 uses two Heat Pumps to heat/cool, and heat pumps are extremely efficient compared to other methods of air conditioning.

[@Rurik1967]

@@keithjansen1734looks like you need to watch the in depth review and all your questions will be answered. I’m not a scientist, BUT I have 6 years of college, and the definition of sipping power, I learned way back in 6th grade era. Sip meaning only consuming little bit of something, thus sipping power means not requiring much power to operate.

I hope so! Ecoflow should add a water purification system to utilize the condensation for drinking in emergency situation. I've been using the wave 2 full-time in a 23ft Winnebago for about a year. I'm definitely happy with its performance. Though additional air circulation is key.

[@terryboomershine6812]

Waste of money..

[@hivetyrant7]

I'm pretty bummed about this, I've always trusted Hobotech reviews but the original video he references multiple times clearly shows that the price was always what is now the "sale" price. It's still $1199 so they just bumped the price to reduce it for a sale. Very shady.

[@RustyCoon]

Thank you for clarifying that the battery is REQUIRED to be able to power from an alternate DC source

[@JerrySmith-q1k]

Yeah that's really no deal. I own the Wave 2, with battery, the original Delta (great purchase), the Delta 2 with extra battery. I wished I had purchased the Delta 2 Max with extra battery but at the time I needed the extra money to purchase the Wave 2 w/battery. I purchased 4x200 bifacial panels to charge the Delta 2 and Wave 2. With the help of this channel and othersI like Will Prowse, I have built several Solar back-up systems (home and hunting camps) and DIY solar generators; often with the help of Hobotech's channel. THANK YOU for your advice. I really do enjoy this Channel. Oh by the way I started watching your Channel years ago, when you were doing electric bikes. Entertaining. Now on my way back home to Alaska (from Georgia), looking forward to seeing your next video.

[@soctnights]

I would buy one of these if I could use the Eco credits I have accumulated to reduce the price another $100-$200 but not allowed due to anniversary sale. You don’t find out until you try. Currently, the Wave 2 is the only EcoFlow product I don’t own. Otherwise no complaints.

[@jbeasty30]

Living in the SW i love my ecoflow...keeps me from roasting in my van.

[@duncanfoulds4603]

We have been following you for years! Because of you we found jackery products! Question? We have a Cessna 182 airplane that we wanted to consider using EcoWave2 to cool the plane in our tough Texas summers. I can vent out the tail the exhaust and water drip, I need to design or come up with how to interface the diameter of the Ecowave2 hoses to mate up a smaller diameter vent hose that will exit the plane underneath if anyone’s has used this in their plane please share. 2nd Question does the EcoWave 2 unit need to be primarily level? Obviously flying will have some degree of pitch and roll axis movement. Thanking you in advance. Appreciate all suggestions and direction. Blessings, Duncan

got the wave2 delivered today....but the battery shipped separately, so cant test it yet

[@BUYBOTH]

I got the Wave 2 last year and it got me through the hot summer when I was in my jeep. It works even better when you block your windows with reflective shades. One little issue I noticed is the air flow comes out at an angle instead of straight out the front. The other little issue is the app that controls the Wave 2 is bloated with marketing and requires logging in.

[@Hansen710]

you can fix that with a cheeaper option, just get a aircon installeed 🤯 how much doees your jeep cost this story is amazing, you can get a car for the price of this thing and yop find it to be the best option to get ???

[@BUYBOTH]

@@Hansen710 Oh sorry, I should have been more detailed. I was working 12 hours shifts last summer and the only place I could shelter from the sun was in my parked jeep. Summer temps sometimes reached 100 degrees. At first I was simply running the jeep A/C for about 6 hours a day. As you can imagine this uses a lot of gasoline. I then purchased the Wave 2 with the optional battery, but a nice neighbor let me plug into his outdoor outlet so I could run the Wave 2 without needing the battery. The sun shades and the Wave 2 kept me cool. As to your second question, the jeep I purchased brand new in 2015 for $31.275.

[@mr.wannabe2786]

I looked at your last year review and the price then seems to be about the same as the discount price today. Am I missing something? The discount cost is now $1,199 with the battery.

[@9a8c]

@mr.wannabe2786 I also noticed the same issue with the pricing from May 2023 video and this current video. @HOBOTECH - are we missing something about the pricing from year ago to the current pricing?

[@reginapetty2042]

(updated) MISSING PARTS. I ordered the Wave 2 with add on battery and car kit. I received the Wave 2 today. They did not send the battery and car kit. Nor is there any indication that these will be arriving separately. I have emailed them and am waiting for a response. I’ll edit this post with updates. Update 5-13-2024: Ecoflow responded within 12 hours of my email to them and gave me the shipment tracking details for the battery. Battery arrived separately 2 days after the main unit. The free car kit is out of stock and will be sent later this month.

Wondering what kind of heat it puts out and how you set it up for heat. Im in Northern Ontario, Canada. I'm in a trailer 30' Terry Dakota, till November and we get snow in October sometimes

[@Wherstead]

I find that the fan at low speed consumes only 14 watts. Very efficient for its size.

[@junkerzn7312]

I wound up getting a Wave 2... been looking for a portable AC for a long time and I was intrigued by the battery option. As a light A/C unit it works well on AC and I am happy with the operation. It is by no means the best portable heat pump out there, but its decent. My only nit on operation is that it would be even better if we could dial in a specific wattage target instead of having all the weird modes. Still, I can get decent operation with it averaging roughly 330W. The ECO mode (200-250W on average) is basically unusable, but at 330W it is decent. That said, I made the mistake of getting it with the battery and IMHO the battery is basically worthless. It won't mix solar charging and AC consumption at all. So you either run it on AC, or you run it on solar, but not both. Which is really too bad. And I didn't realize the battery was NMC rather than LiFePO4. I really don't like having large NMC batteries in the house. That was my bad. For camping I'd just assume take the efficiency hit and run it off of AC from a power station, since I need to have the power station anyway for other things. The other huge problem is that the battery is totally proprietary. The unit would be far more useful if it could be run from a non-proprietary DC source and the battery would be far more useful if the solar was integrated into it instead of integrated into the main unit. Ah well, live and learn! -Matt

[@michaelmartin9022]

Heating doesn't work on mine, has "high voltage", apparently. Still I'd rather have a "Wave 1.5" (as the original didn't have heating mode) than deal with returning it via the Japanese post office. I have the battery but barely use it, I just run it on AC through the Bletti, but soon I'll get another BougeRV 200w panel, then we'll see!

[@WisconsinWanderer]

I’m looking for a portable A/C only not both and really don’t need another battery to maintain 😊thanks for this video

Well done sir! Excellent explanation of the solar & battery options.

5 of these would save me $5,500 a year on my energy bills, thats the extra money we spend on electricity to cool in the summer, and what we spend to heat our home in the winter.

[@OfftoShambala]

You might want to consider a mini split for your home… the venting out the window is a problem. Don’t go all in. There are better ac and heating options for a home. Just get one and try it.

[@YourOldPalFernbark]

Not compatible with the Delta Max extra battery port, which sucks for me. Delta 2 Max: yes Delta Max: no. Thanks Ecoflow.

Hello Professor Great video. Thank you for this video and information. Is this product geared more for camping, van, or RV, instead of home use? Please let me know. Thanks

[@HOBOTECH]

"Portable" is in the title...

[@dogishappy0]

Try looking up channels that specifically focus on VanLife, RV'S, camping, etc. I found roughly 2 of each around a year ago when I was researching buying one of these. I'm sure there's more now. The only real things I remember are how the Wave2 costs less and uses less power than those rooftop AC's you can get on cars at the cost of cabin space, and it doesn't take this thing long to turn camping into glamping. Me? I used it to heat my bedroom above the temperature I set the rest of the house to this winter. Those 5 degrees more in my bedroom would have been roughly equivalent to an additional 15% on my heating bill each month but were free for me thanks to my solar powered Wave 2. I hope this helps with your cost/benefit analysis!

[@turbocurbo6017]

So do not go over the 13 Amperes on solar? I thought the unit would only “pull” what amps it needs.

[@im24wdgaming74]

How long does it take to fully charge it with the added battery just plugged in with the wall charger. Thanks

[@smashbother5684]

Can the Wave 2 choose power source separately between operation and charging? For example, can it run itself on wall outlet power while charging using solar panels? If not, is there an Ecoflow combination that enables this?

[@mats77]

I've been thinking about snagging one of these during the anniversary sale and wanted to see what people may advice in my specific situation. This product is a no brainer camping in a minivan (Sienna) for cooler temperatures during the night in hotter climate (Texas etc). I understand the limitations of the product but would only need it to keep temperature comfortable overnight in the warmer months of the year. My plan would be to use the vans own AC to cool it before bedtime, and then run the Wave2 in eco mode to keep things at a comfortable level while sleeping. It looks like it's perfect for this. The ONE concern that I have is the battery and being able to use it more than one night without shore power.. I'm assuming it will drain most of the attached battery over night, and while I have 2 solar panels, it's only 230w (100 + 130). Will this even be close to enough to top up the battery for night 2 and onward or will the capacity just get smaller for each night ? lol? Is this a scenario that makes sense if I'd need to use it for several night out in the middle of nowhere? I do see that they sell the 800w alternator charger, so I guess that could be a way to recharge it while running the car for faster top up, but then you do have to run the car a long time... What say y'all?

[@greengooseman]

I bought the window kit all by itself. It arrived yesterday. TBH, I have no idea how im going to make it work yet.

[@kr639]

I’m confused it looked like the xt60 plugged directly into the unit not the addon battery? My question can it run off solar without addon battery or solar with ac …. and use less ac in doing so

[@notestonetworking9020]

This being 800 now on the site, it's not probably more viable than a mini-split installation in my trailer.

[@FirebrandChris]

I wish they would have added a solar or car charging option, with the ability to control how many amps it will pull, into the settings option

[@michaelmartin9022]

Connecting the battery but setting the times it charges via AC would be great. I'd love to have it AC charge from my solar setup for just a couple of hours at midday and peak output.

[@SherwoodTravels]

I bought the Wave 2 and the add-on battery after seeing your original video. Thank you for the education! I have a Bluetti AC200P and when I plugged the Wave 2 with the add-on battery into the AC200P’s AC source, somehow it drains the AC200P from 100% to 50% in about 30 minutes but the Wave 2’a add-on battery barely charged (it was at 1 light out of 4 after this). Is this normal?

[@michaelmartin9022]

Was the battery connected? It runs off the battery, then uses AC to charge the battery back up at 800w. If you disconnect the battery the AC draws more like 350-400w

[@SherwoodTravels]

@@michaelmartin9022 The battery was indeed connected, because that’s the only way this add-on battery can charge, from what I understand? Basically the add-on is connected to the Wave 2 and I had to plug the Wave 2 into a power source in order to charge the add-on battery. So it goes from power source (in this case a Bluetti), to Wave 2, and then to the add-on battery. True I could operate the Wave 2 without connecting the battery. I will be trying that next. What I was trying to do was to charge the add-on for later use (the Wave 2 was turned on but I wasn’t using it for AC and even the fan was off), so it surprised me when I saw 1,000W drain after a short time and the add-on battery barely charged. Hopefully Professor Hobo can do an experiment? 😅

can I power and or charge my eco flow wave A/C with my bluetti ac1800 generator? or do I have to use the eco flow delta 2 to power and charge the A/C

[@HOBOTECH]

You can run the Wave 2 on any 120v AC inverter.

[@daryljones3139]

Thank you Hobotech for your quick response and all your very informative and helpful videos!!! I have one more question, my wave 2 is coming with one of the new eco flow alternator chargers and I'm wondering if it will work on my Bluetti AC180? or is the alternator charger only good with the eco flow batteries? I'm seeing that there are other dc-dc chargers out there but I don't know which one to get for my Bluetti? I purchased all these on the recent amazon prime days and hoping to set up my tundra for camping. Please keep up the good work! and clean out that cat box!

[@diygman1648]

Until the battery can be charged separately from the unit it's a hard no for me.

[@whydontyouaskme]

You can’t update hardware. Low IQ prob

[@pje3325]

Can you run the wave 2 off of an ecoflow power kit directly wo using the “ac”input?

[@HOBOTECH]

No

[@Sgt_Church]

there is one thing that I simply can not find anywhere. When you run the wave 2 WITH the external battery, is the xt60 \ 400 watt enough to run this unit indefinity when set to max ac?? Their own specs say it consumes 550w so it doesnt seem like it should work. This is the only information holding me back from buying one. I do not have the overhead ability to provide with 110vac. The xt60 is my only means of charging and using it. I have a massive battery bank and the ability to provide 400w dc to that port, but if the wave 2 eats more power then the xt60 can provide, the wave 2 will still die eventually. Please, can someone confirm if the xt60 can run this thing indefinitly?

[@HOBOTECH]

It will use 550w in bursts but once the compressor is running it uses under 400w. Watch my original review.

[@john-j7e7e]

very interested because of the sale. how many watts does this ac need to run? i wouldnt run heat off it just ac. the 6% code isnt working.

[@HOBOTECH]

The original video covers power use.

[@weswalker1208]

Looks like you got a new neighbor in Arizona Bob Wells bought 20 acres

He's nowhere near me.

[@TheStevehn]

If I don't have the addon battery or the EcoFlow Power Station then can I connect the Wave 2 to the 12-24v house batteries w/o going through the inverter?

[@HOBOTECH]

I answered that in this video.

[@GMC-qo9xi]

I believe it’s not possible. Need their battery attached in order to connect the solar port to your batteries.

[@whydontyouaskme]

2:50 @TheStevehn lazy POS

[@loucinci3922]

Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing

[@AutomotiveAvocation]

😂 the Star Trek clip 😂

[@tadarnold]

Thanks for the info. Could you clarify... in this video you say it will run on any external "12-60 v source". Will the unit actually heat/cool directly from the XT connector, or does it run only the fan as other youtubers have stated in various videos?

[@HOBOTECH]

It runs from the battery, not the xt60.

[@Juicememelord]

​@@HOBOTECHso does an external DC power source charge/power the battery or does it directly run the unit?

[@davesigz]

Pls check link. Not working for me.

[@youtube7076]

how many watt hour is the battery? i ask because i would use my ebike batteries to power it on bikepacking trips and want some idea of runtime..?

[@HOBOTECH]

Watch my original review.

[@josephjarvis8228]

I want to like the wave 2. However I’ve had to return 2 now for all of them having developed the same exact high pitched non mechanical screeching sound. I am on my 3rd unit now, that’s not very good odds

[@michaelmartin9022]

That's the water pump overreacting and trying to pump an empty tank. Let it dehumidify a bit more and fill the tank.

[@GPTLeader]

It was $999 with the portable battery 🤷🏻

[@jebadaiah1228]

1200 bucks is still a little steep

[@hershey022390]

Your code didn’t work

[@davesigz]

Good info. Thanks.

[@wt9653]

I would rather sweat like a pig than pay 1200 for AC and 1 hour capacity battery. Over 2100 for a regular price 😂 I would go to home Depot and pick up a portable AC for 250 and beef up my batteries and solar panels.

[@alaska-bornfloridaman]

6% code isn't working.

[@markkenton4945]

Is it a LifeP04 battery?

[@HOBOTECH]

NMC otherwise it couldn't run 8 hours.

[@Nicker000]

recently got a wave2 delivery, one of the side fairings vibrate and rattle, noise will stop when i apply pressure. is the remedy to return the unit or JerryRig something?

[@GMC-qo9xi]

Yes? (You already answered the question…) Putting pressure on it stops the vibration… therefore put something where the vibration is causing noise… like use a shim (cardboard?) someplace that can put pressure on the panel… Tape could be used to fix this issue in at least a half dozen different ways. Let the “jury-rigging” begin!

[@GMC-qo9xi]

You could likely use some (clear) silicon caulking to great success, as well! Just don’t get it everywhere…

[@floridaprepper751]

Another great video sir.

[@AndrewSheldon]

800watts. That's pretty inefficient. Portable refrigerators run at 60-80watt no?

[@HOBOTECH]

This isn't a refrigerator, it's an air conditioner. Who ever said it takes 800 watts? Watch my review. It uses 300-400w.

[@Hansen710]

even with 40% of its still more expensive then other options

[@quartamile]

This product has a 7.2EER, which is pathetic (worse than most window units). Its battery barely lasts 8hrs and has to be in eco mode to achieve it, so more battery and solar is needed for most folks. I recommend investigating some of the 20EER 48VDC mini splits.

[@pearlrival3124]

does not work at all when the sun is out in march/april.
