Nobody else will tell you about these limitations of the EcoFlow Wave 2 Portable HVAC Unit. After over one year of testing the system, I will continue to use it, but want to share it true capabilities.

The biggest problem with all of these type of cooling units is that if you are off grid it will be difficult to recharge the batteries day after day. Solar would have to be extremely large and you would have to have good sun all day. A gas generator would work but when you are in nature who wants to do that.

While the EF Wave 2 is the first portable mini-split solution, it is very expensive for what it can do and the proprietary nature of its power source makes it a non-sequitur for many buyers. For the same price as the Wave 2 you could get a much more capable mini-split system. For the combined price of the Wave 2 and enough power to run it off power stations and/or external batteries, you can set up that same mini-split, battery and inverter, but all of that is for stationary situations. The "portable" aspect of the Wave 2 is the real selling point. Even there, you can find other solutions, but none that are as easy to use.

TL;DR It is a solid product that does a good job of cooling or heating a single room until the source temperature hits specific "breakover" points while a charge lasts. It is flexible to setup, but there are a couple gotcha's when using solar charging, and you have to handle moisture output.

2:06 This is just not how an heatpump works. If you mean to say that i fails to work at too low outdoor tempratures you are correct (the unit is not made for that), however, having the intake inside defeats the entire point of an heatpump..

You always do the best reviews of products. Thank you.

[@OffGridAdventure]

Thank you, Joe! I recently watched your review of the Hover Drone on my TV. I appreciate your work too!

[@nikkiryan1292]

Have you tried cooling with the wave 2 inside the space and only using the exhaust tube?

[@OffGridAdventure]

I tried both ways, and the difference felt negligible to me. But, I would like to get an insulated tent and try it to see if there is a noticeable difference. Unfortunately, I haven’t experimented with the AC in a well insulated room to get the full effect.

[@neurodivergentlily]

You never think you need a ventilation system... until you do. 😅

[@OffGridAdventure]

That's true! I wanted to share that although it is a groundbreaking one of a kind HVAC system, it does have some limitations that most others don't really share.

[@neurodivergentlily]

@@OffGridAdventure very important info before buying for sure!!

Honestly, this is a huge overpriced; more trouble than it worth hunk of junk. A few of my friends brought it and threw them out because of all the hoses and changes you have to make. I mean, who want to babysit all this crap. I have a 6,000 btu air conditioner with one hose. I simply built an a 10,000 amp hour battery storage system with solar and run it all day and night. I have heat also with the air conditioner so there are so many great options. The wave 2 with the battery is well over $1,300; my air conditioner was $358 out the door. I have using it for over 10 years without issue.

[@jonstravels1085]

If you’ve been using it for 10 years it definitely burns a lot of power and weighs more than this. It’s 2 hoses, intake and exhaust. With a third to direct cold air if you want. It’s not very complicated if you take the time. The reason for 2 hoses as opposed to one is because it’s significantly more efficient than one hose. Instead of having hot and cold air traveling through one hose they each have one to travel through. It’s not for everybody but for ppl who want a stand-alone system you can bring almost anywhere without needing to haul a battery and all this is one of the only options. It’s pricey but you can either burn 1000w or 300w just depends how much you wanna spend

[@Montusama]

True, but I'm looking at this because I have awning windows that exceed the length of vent hoses in height. Its either get a Whyther unit but the parts are unavailable, void the warranty (probably on after market extensions, or have a 60-70+ pound unit at least two feet off the floor. None of these seem realistic. Niche solutions trigger niche prices.

🫣 You start off Bad Mouthing other KZbinrs who have Reviewed this... That is an Arrogant and a Horrible thing to do. I disagree with your slander of other KZbinrs reviews on this A/C Heating Unit. The Ecoflow Wave 2 is Unique it is one of a Kind. It is a 5,000 BTU Heat Pump. It does the same thing as a mini split A/C. Nothing else is this size and can do what this does. It is extremely Energy Efficient. If you use this in a room ( An insulated space.) no larger than 160 SQ Feet it will do an amazing job. It is Not going to use more than 400 Watts. On Average it will use 300 Watts.

It fails to perform when you really need it.
