Top features
The EcoFlow River 3 is a 245Wh LiFePO4 portable power station with a 300W AC inverter (600W X-Boost for surge loads). It features 1 AC outlet, 2 USB-A ports, 1 USB-C PD (65W), and 1 12V/10A car output. Wall recharge takes 1 hour via AC adapter; solar input maxes at 100W. Weighing 3.5 kg (7.7 lb), it's one of the lightest mid-capacity stations and highly portable for camping, van life, RVs, and home backup. EcoFlow rates the LiFePO4 cells for 3000+ cycles. Praised for fast AC charging and compact form factor, though solar recharge is slower than larger rivals and the 245Wh capacity suits light loads (phones, laptops, small appliances) rather than extended off-grid days. Strong brand reputation and clean QC record among users.
