[@rbengraff]

So happy I found you. I am an avid RV'er and early adopter of all things 12 V and solar, and there is a real lack of knowledge out there unless you really dig. And if you're lucky enough to find it, it's generally complicated. You have a calming tone and a great way of teaching and I'm grateful for your content and style. A new subscriber is born!

[@TechMadeEzy]

Very nice to have you on the channel. I’m very glad you found us. I will tell you I love doing reviews. I don’t know everything, but I make sure I do my research. I love new technology. Also, I’m looking forward to talking to you soon.

[@johnnymoore6730]

Since this power station only needs sixty minutes to fully charge, it is literally the fastest charging power station ever.

[@proper_gander3608]

Important if power system is faulty/intermittent and you only get a small window of time to grab as much charge as you can...

[@danvilla2956]

Well I just purchased a River 2 Max blind without any research and then instantly worried that I might regret my choice as they aren't cheap here in the uk, after watching your in depth review I know that I can breath a huge sigh of relief! And I'm happy that this power station is absolutely perfect for all my camping needs and also in case of power outages in the home. Your honest real world review has been invaluable in reassuring me that I haven't just wasted £550 haha, many thanks for all the information 😀

[@CB-kd3dn]

What I love about this power station is that is uses LFP batteries which means it would definitely last very long.

[@victorforzani3433]

last longer but will not run most appliances how many flash light can you purchase for 500 dollars..

[@DoritosResidue]

This runs my dc fridge for more than 2 days. The test i did was more enough for me to be satisfied. When camping season is in I will use this with my dc fridge and solar.

[@pennyroyal3813]

Three things stand out for me: 3,000 cycles, 60 minutes charging and the five year warranty. The Bluetti EB70S is also very nice,I prefer its power, but a 3-4 hour charge isn't ideal with rolling blackouts/intermittent power. Plus at the moment only a two year warranty is available. The ideal model is the River 2 Pro but as yet is unavailable. With this mild winter let's hope power outages are fewer. A very detailed, great review.

Very good video. I like how you explain things for beginners without talking down to them. Great job. I use a battery backup for CPAP and it carried me through all the rolling blackouts that Texas had in February 2021. I am not in the market for the small. I am considering a whole house with a DIY setup or the Delta Max with the 240V hub. I really like what EcoFlow has come out with. I wanted to purchase one back when they were crowdfunding and the delay seemed to be like they would never shop one. Good to see they are no longer up against those issues. Again, great video.

[@TechMadeEzy]

Thank you very much keep in mind a double voltage hub only works with the Delta Pro. I'll put two links below one of them is on the Delta Pro the other one is on the double voltage hub.

Not sure what portable solar panel I'll pair it with yet, looks like i'll be watching a few more videos! Thanks again from North QLD

Based on your video I purchased the River 2 Max Absolutely a great product I have the 160 Watt Solar Panel and it has pulled as much as 143 watts

[@TechMadeEzy]

Well thank you I’m glad our video helped and the 160w is performing very well 👍🏼

[@metalheadmalta]

Excellent review... as a European, the thing which blows my mind everytime (and it has little to do with the MAX), is how you need a 1400W coffee maker to make a cup of coffee... We just use a kettle on our gas stove, or (for your research), a BIALETTI using pre-ground coffee beans... definitely BETTER in every way than what a coffee pot maker can do. PURE Italian coffee the way it was meant to be.... Anyway, thanks to your review, I am getting one of these. :-) Superb presentation, clear and easy to understand.

[@TechMadeEzy]

Thank you

[@linuxmonkey]

Thank you for a very thorough test. I've been wondering if my Max will be able to accept power from 220w panel. I mainly using it for outdoors specifically for my ice maker which draws around 150-160w. The runtime was around 2-3 hours. With your review i think 220w would be best for me to prolong the battery life on a hot sunny day with nice iced beverages. 😁 Update: Brooklyn makes me subscribed to the channel.

[@VengD]

Good on your for testing it as an actual UPS for the fridge. Every other channel that shows a fridge, tries to run it like you're plugging in a warm fridge that needs to be cooled down... And then going "Nope! It can't handle it! It overloads!" I'm sure it does... But who would eeever try to completely cool down a fridge with one of these? I very much expect my fridge to already be cold if I need this solar generator to take over if the power goes out...

[@AmusedKelpie-tc9du]

I'll give you more than a thumbs up, you saved me my usual trial and error which has a substantial price tag. By the way, I did subscribe...😊

The 5 year warranty that Ecoflow has on the River 2 Max is enough reason for me to get one for myself.

[@andrewfong4216]

Nice review. I saw one of these for sale, and did an impulse buy because the specs looked good. Glad to see your detailed review. You know what you're talking about. I have older chest type freezers that pull about 900w at startup, so I'm not sure I can use it for that, but I do have other applications, and I have a couple of 100w panels not doing anything at the moment, so I think this is a good fit for me.

[@TechMadeEzy]

Thanks Andrew

I feel like you made this for me 😆 I am really impressed with this unit. I am so glad I didn't go with the Ostation from Olight or Jackery. Good to know about the accessories, I like the light! I didn't think it would run a fridge that long! I do have a question, if you left this unit plugged into the wall and ran other appliances through the power station, would it be bad for the battery in the power station?

[@TechMadeEzy]

It does have eps mode but you’d have to contact EcoFlow on that question [e-mail]

[@ttwatt3027]

I know Ecoflow will read this comment. Please update firmware for the Delta 2 to be able to plug two Delta 2s together to not only add battery capacity, but to also allow 240v split phase like its bigger brother the Delta Pro. It would make off grid camping and van life so much better . The Delta Pro at 100lbs is too heavy but two Delta 2s is very manageable. Cmon Ecoflow, you're leaving money on the table here and would really stick it to your competitors like Bluetti or Jackery. 😃

[@Bacnow]

I 100% agree! They could sell them as a package and dominate the market! I’m buying a Delta2 but would definitely add a second when needed!

The reason why I like this power station is that it has a 3000 charge cycle which does mean it would work for around 10 years before it loses power.

[@patriciajackson8764]

Just bought this on Amazon. plus we have champion generator. but this for our internet. we occasionally lose power. not a lot.but we normally lose power for a couple hours.our power company get the power back on quickly. plus we bought these out door solar lights that work great as lamps so we have light .but sometimes waiting for power to come on we have no internet.

Really don't understand why Ecoflow dropped the light. It's minimal cost yet is a very functional feature depending on the use-case. Come on Ecoflow!

[@marklewus5468]

Unless you have a resistive load like a heater, don‘t use X boost. It drops voltage until the power is reduced to 500W. It does not at any time output 1000W. If you use it for devices with a switching power supply (ie computer) or a motor, like a refrigerator, you can do serious damage to the device. It’s best to just leave this “feature” turned off. Also, for maximum battery life set the app to charge at no more than the 2 hr rate (~250W).

Hi there It won’t run long on this power station because that is a lot of power 400w you might get a little over an hour, but the one thing that you need to check into is what is the surge for the juice blender because if the power surge is more than 1000w well this power station won’t run it at all.

Hi Amen you can plug one into the other, but it won’t give you more power. It’ll just allow you to have a little more runtime because you’ll be using one to power stuff and the other one will just become a battery.

[@eddiet3026]

Previous River Max was not LFP, but it was 720Wh.

[@TechMadeEzy]

That’s the River pro 720Wh plus the optional battery

[@eddiet3026]

@@TechMadeEzy you're absolutely correct. When I bought the River Pro, I kinda forgot the specs on the other River models. Now I'm wishing I had waited for the River 2 models.

[@honeztearthling987]

Does this charge space heaters?

[@TechMadeEzy]

Space heaters normally require alot of wattage (power) and if you run them long even more battery capacity. I don't think this would work but check your running wattage and surge wattage then get the matching power station

[@wimdewyngaert2999]

Can I charge a Efoil battery with the powerstation?

[@TechMadeEzy]

If you can plug it in and it’s under the rated power output it probably can but then it also depends on the efoil battery capacity.

[@atorbtech]

Did you test the UPS mode with a PC? Some youtubers were saying that the River 2 max doesnt work in UPS mode as claimed. That the switch over delay is causing the PC to shutdown. Can you please confirm

[@TechMadeEzy]

Hi they call it EPS because it’s not as fast as a UPS, it’s around 30ms so for a computer it would be slow and you can lose data if the power goes out.

[@atorbtech]

@@TechMadeEzy Thank you for the reply. I heard the river 2 pro a well as the River 2 models have a 15ms delay which is ok for computers. Delta 2 and River 2 max models have longer switch over delay.

For SUV camping heat, will this power a full size Delonghi 1500 watt oil radiator heater set at the 700 watt minimum heat level? If so, for how long?

[@TechMadeEzy]

This is 500w so no it won’t,before you think about buying a power station you need to know the surge wattage also that’s important. With wattage like that you might need a delta 2 or maybe to be extra safe a delta 2 max links for videos are below Delta 2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqfHpHyKrKyShbMsi=Pi4bebDYFCnX87r2 Delta 2.

Thank you, The River 2 Max was on sale at Sam's Club for $339 on 1/19/24. It might still be on sale for a few weeks. They had two on the shelf. Pretty good deal. I want to try some car camping in my Mazda CX5 SUV to avoid hotel costs.@@TechMadeEzy​

[@TechMadeEzy]

@Ncharlestun I understand but definitely buy something that meets your needs that's good for phones maybe laptops, the battery is really small you're not going to get much run time

[@Ncharlestun]

That Delta 2 Max looked great. I don't have a definite need for any products right away. Just learning about the car camping techniques and strategies. I have subscribed to you, thank you. @@TechMadeEzy

[@TechMadeEzy]

@Ncharlestun My pleasure

[@bobb6299]

Do you think it will run a small window unit

[@TechMadeEzy]

I don’t think so, but you would definitely need to know the wattage and any type of surge. Also, the battery in this unit is small so even if it could, it would only run it for a very short time.

[@Texg1rl_]

How do I get it to pair with iPhone?

[@TechMadeEzy]

Download the EcoFlow app and make sure Bluetooth is on, the app will find it

[@bootangy]

what beats this river 2 max?

[@TechMadeEzy]

A ton of power stations out there, delta 2 would be the one I would choose but you can wait for the River 2 pro coming soon

[@bootangy]

[@TechMadeEzy]

If you have the money, the Delta 2 is amazing and it’s expandable when you need it to be. See this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGexlpmOo7iml6M

[@fanech14]

Can this thing handle a 700 watt microwave ???

[@TechMadeEzy]

I’m not gonna know for sure, but I don’t think it would because I believe that microwave has a good surge. You might want to look at this the Delta 2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHjYmaqIhbWdp7ssi=fxr90wcZxWdVCQ6n

[@evarlast]

oh no! don't use the XBoost on a fridge!

[@TechMadeEzy]

Yup and it’s not needed as well

[@eisvogel8099]

I have no idea what a CPAP is.

[@TechMadeEzy]

a method of respiratory therapy in which air is pumped into the lungs through the nose or nose and mouth during spontaneous breathing, used in the treatment of sleep apnea and other respiratory disorders. "I had to sleep with a CPAP machine at night"

[@Jake-ve3ro]

Why do you need to buy a watt reader when ecoflow shows u as well?😂

[@Nisie23]

Why do you keep saying this is a 600W unit? It's not, it's 500W !!

[@Francoisdp82]

They nerfd the River. Sad. The only great upgrade is the LFP battery. The inveter and xboost is downgraded form old model.

[@dunerinaz]

This is hardly a "medium" sized power station. Medium would be in the 1khw range. This is a SMALL compact power station every day, all day.

[@victorforzani3433]

I purchase this generator and now I have buyers remorse, the power is not sufficient to even run a refrigerator for more than 2 hour, that is a shame how many time power goes out for more than 4 hour..

[@TechMadeEzy]

Sorry to hear this you must have an older refrigerator as you can see during my refrigerator test I showed the specs of my refrigerator it is really efficient

[@victorforzani3433]

@@TechMadeEzy yes and your fridge can only run for 2 hour , so that is my question and is no new...

[@TechMadeEzy]

@victorforzani3433 did you watch the video? My test lasted much longer than 2 hours

[@MrApplegummy]

@@victorforzani3433 i have a fridge like his and mine lasted 8 1/2 hours while opening the fridge a few times a day. Although i did remove the light bulb, my fridge is pretty efficient.
