Open the APP, find "Help & Feedback" under the user page, and click "Feedback"
Click "AC" on the device page of the APP, and you could turn on the "X-Boost" function after entering the page. *In order to save power, it is recommended to turn off the X-boost function when you don’t need to use it. *X-boost technology's built-in advanced algorithms lower the required output of the heavy-duty devices. That means a smart 600W inverter can run devices with up to 1200W per draw. *X-Boost mode is NOT suitable for ALL appliances. Some 600W-1200W appliances with strict voltage requirements may not function (eg. air compressor). Please test to confirm before using the device. X-Boost mode is enabled by default. You can disable it on the APP.

Initial impressions are good, it is so small and portable yet is capable of running my “man cave” lighting and radio while charging my phone and powering a laptop and occasional printing
Need to save up and buy a bigger one as daughter already has her eye on mine
Not tried solar charging as I didn’t get panels but the charging from mains takes no time
Had a small problem setting up the App but quick call to the guys soon sorted it – thanks

So I just purchased one of these. I wanted to make sure I was dealing with a proper company so I rang power2go before hand and my call was answered immediately in a very helpful and friendly manner. I put the order in after speaking to them (friday) and received it Monday with a 1hr deliver slot. I got it all setup but wa s disappointed with the fan noise and rang power2go who again answered immediately. They suggested checking the app for updates. I did this and the firmware update reduces the fan noise completely. Today I am sat in my shed running all my office equipment and the battery states I have 32 hours left! I love this thing. Compared to the cost of laying armoured cable to my shed its a no brainer for me. Really happy with the product, service and support received from this company! Recommended!

I purchased an EcoFlow river to take camping with my family, so we don’t have to rely on an electric hookup pitch to charge and power our devices. I am pleased with the quality of the device and was amazed and how fast it charges up. It came with around a 30% charge, and after plugging it into the mains, it was charged to 100% in just over an hour. I also tested charging with solar and was also impressed by the speed, definitely head and shoulders above the competition. I have a halfords electric cooler and left it connected to the River in my garden while it was being charged by solar. The battery was on 100% when I started, and when I returned late in the afternoon the battery was on 99% after powering the cooler the entire day, the simultaneous charge and discharge was precisely the functionality I was looking for and it passed the test with flying colours. I will be purchasing the additional battery soon for that extra capacity on the not so sunny days. All in all delighted with my purchase.

I love this kit. It’s perfect for our requirements with our day-van.
It’s a robust design but is light and has a small footprint.
Although its capacity is only 288 Watt Hours this is enough for our low-watt kettle to boil water for 6 coffees on a full charge.
It works just fine straight out of the box but you do need to install the associated app if you want to control some additional functions. For example, I’ve used the app to reduce the draw on the car battery when charging it via the cigarette lighter.
It’s a really solid piece of kit but I will definitely be buying extra capacity if I upgrade from my day-van to a full camper-van.

For day trips we wanted sufficient electric power only to run a small fridge for a few hours and boil a 2-mug kettle a couple of times without needing to charge on the road.
This unit delivers that power efficiently with great on-screen and in-app metrics available in real time.
We love it.
For longer trips plan to charge the unit from the cigarette lighter but we were concerned about the drain on the car battery. Using the app we set the unit to draw only 4 amps when charging from a 12 volt DC supply so that should be fine.
In the longer term we might buy the solar-panel and the extra battery capacity but now this unit is perfect.

Great product. Highly recommend Ecoflow and Power-2Go. I’ve spent a lot of time deliberating over an Ecoflow power station eventually settling on the River. It doesn’t disappoint. It both feels and looks like a quality product. I intend it for family camping and so far it has effortlessly charged Nintendo Switches, phones, Chromebooks and a DVD player. The nice thing is the quick charge-up time of the unit itself. I guess a cheeky trip to a pub for lunch and the unit could be topped up in under an hour. Ecoflow seems to have thought of everything, USB C 100w charging, expandable with an extra battery module, Mobile app and firmware updating, the list goes on. I’m interested to see how a solar module would fair in the good old UK. Might buy one just for the fun of it.

I was looking for a Portable Power Station ready for the start of the camping season and the
EcoFlow River was on my shortlist. After searching the internet I came across Power 2 Go.
Wanting to know a little bit more about the EcoFlow brand, I telephoned Power 2 Go and my call was promptly answered by Jay. He was very friendly and informative, following this call I placed
my order with confidence the following day. 24 hours later I was in receipt of my EcoFlow River
and I was not disappointed. It is compact, sturdy and finished to a high standard & very well
packaged. The charging time of the unit is equally impressive. Another great feature is the intuitive mobile app.
Next on the list is purchasing the Solar Panel to charge the EcoFlow River on those sunny UK
days and will again place my order with Power 2 Go.
