Questions about EcoFlow River 2 (EU)

Digitec support answered that 2 years is the correct and 5 years only maybe if EcoFlow is contacted directly.

What does the maintenance charger consume?

Attention, this Ecoflow has a maximum of 110W at the DC input. https://de.ecoflow.com/products/river-2-portable-power-station You can connect the panel (with the XT60 on MC4 connector), but it is quite possible that the Ecoflow will not charge, because in the "extreme case" too much power is supplied by the panel. Considering the size of the 160W panel (we have 2, these are "feiechli" big paddles), I would rather recommend the 110W panel (you won't reach the maximum with 110W anyway) - it is a bit smaller than the 160W...

Due to the price mistake last year, there was a very large queue. We hope to supply all those waiting as quickly as possible.

Yes, this product can be recharged using solar energy. EcoFlow offers portable solar panels to recharge its power stations, so you can take advantage of renewable energy outdoors.

Yes, this product can be recharged using solar energy. It is compatible with portable solar panels, allowing it to be recharged off-grid. Recharging time depends on the power of the solar panel used, but with a 160-watt panel it can be fully recharged in around 4 to 9 hours, depending on sunlight conditions.

I have no specific information on the possibility of connecting the car's 12V to the product in question. However, many EcoFlow power stations include the possibility of car charging, so this functionality may be supported. I recommend you consult the product manual or contact customer service to confirm.

The Powerstation can generate a noise of up to 62 dB at high power consumption. The noise may be audible in a living room, especially when the Powerstation is running under high load. Normally, however, it is quiet and not disturbing.

I haven't tried it yet, but there's nothing to be said against it!

The appliance naturally has a 230 volt AC output, but there is a standard version with the EU D plug and a Swiss version with these plugs.

CH standard means that only one of the two 220 V inputs can be used. The other is sealed. (But it can be removed and should then also work) You can use a Schuko to CH adapter and charge the laptop. It is then simply not earthed. Depending on the laptop, you can also use the USB C.

The smallest possible load is 100W. I've never charged at this power, so I can't answer your question about the fan.

Firstly, the River is empty after 1-2 days due to the standby loss. Secondly, the 12V output is not a charging output, but has a constant voltage. You would have to connect a normal battery charger to the 230V output and then switch the River on and off again from time to time.

This model is the EU version, only one AC plug is open, which must be used with an adapter for three-pin plugs. For Switzerland with three-pin plugs, I recommend the CH version.

Schucko plug works perfectly. Also Schucko adapter to 3-pin.

As in the picture. There is also a Swiss version. EcoFlow River 2 (CH version) look at the picture

The power bank delivers 1600w in X=Boost mode and the coffee machine needs 1260w. This means it should work.

Many thanks for the tip. This is the version with EU sockets. This EcoFlow River 2 Pro CH version (768 Wh, 7.80 kg) would be the CH version with CH sockets.

yes...it's the same for me......

I asked myself the same question, because they want the physical proof of purchase. And that's what I found out. Basically, your legal 2-year warranty claim in Switzerland against the seller applies. https://www.srf.ch/sendungen/kassensturz-espresso/rechtsfragen/kaufrecht/rechtsfrage-garantie-oder-herstellergarantie-welche-gilt#:~:text=The%20warranty%20(warranty)%20of%20the%20seller%C3%A4and%20may%20not%20be%20sold%C3%BCrzt%20. The manufacturer may or may not grant you a longer warranty. On ecoflow.com it says in the FAQs. https://www.ecoflow.com/de/support/faq "The warranty is valid for 500 operating hours or 2 years, whichever comes first." And here it says something about 5 years for the River 2. https://ch.ecoflow.com/pages/garantie-und-rueckgabebestimmungen?_pos=1&_psq=garant&_ss=e&_v=1.0 That's why I registered, but I've never had any problems with my devices. So I don't know how it works in practice and what is granted.

Unfortunately, we are currently unable to offer this.

The fan is only annoying when it is very quiet. Otherwise a mega device!

Yes, that shouldn't be a problem.

Yes, but this means that the battery will be used if the voltage difference between the input (which can be changed to 4 or 6A) is less than the output voltage.

Hello hobbit, There are Youtube videos that explain this. There are 2 factors. One is that you can only use part of the battery as you are not allowed to discharge it deeply. Depending on the battery installed, this can be 20-50%. The other is the losses when converting e.g. battery voltage to 230V (if you use the sockets). The fact that the 100% Wh of the batteries is stated instead of the actual usable capacity is probably the case with all manufacturers. Ecoflow performs just as well/badly as the other manufacturers. (A small note: the % display is only accurate if the power station was previously empty and is then fully charged. The more you charge a half-empty battery, the less accurately the battery display shows the capacity). Greetings M
