This is one of the many power stations I've tested in 2023, and the striking thing about the River 2 is how light it is -- 7.7lbs feels like nothing after some of the power stations I've been handling lately. On top of that, the handle is ergonomic and comfortable.

While many power stations are fine if you keep them close to home or a vehicle, I could see this being a power station that I'd be happy to carry for a few miles if I needed that sort of power for drones, or cameras if I was on a shoot. In fact, I've taken this with me a few times, either just carrying it in my hands, or loading it into a backpack.

With a capacity of 256Wh, the RIVER 2 is small enough to be portable, but powerful enough to run a 100W load for close to 2.5 hours. The AC output can handle a sustained output of 300W (which would drain the RIVER 2 in under an hour) and surge loads up to 600W.

In my experience using it, theEcoFlow RIVER 2 is rugged and well-built and shrugs off the knocks and bumps of everyday use.
