How Long Does an EcoFlow Power Station Last?

EcoFlow power stations are a great way to stay powered up when you're on the go or when the power goes out. But how long do they last?

The runtime of an EcoFlow power station will vary depending on the size of the power station, the wattage of the device you're powering, and the efficiency of the device. Here is a table of approximate runtimes for some popular devices:

EcoFlow Portable Power Station Runtimes for Every Day Devices
*The data marked in orange is the power consumption time when the X-Boost function is used. In the X-Boost state, the host uses the highest rated power to output. For example, the rated power of RIVER is 600W, and X-Boost is 1800W. When X-Boost When it is turned on and supplies power to a 1600W device (such as a hair dryer), the calculation of the device usage time is based on the 600W rated power calculation.

How long will each EcoFlow Power Station run my devices?

The RIVER 2 Pro will run a refrigerator for 6-12 hours
The DELTA 2 will run a refrigerator for 7-14 hours
The DELTA Pro will run a refrigerator for 24-48 hours

The RIVER 2 Pro will run a 50" TV for 5 hours
The DELTA 2 will run a 50" TV for 7 hours
The DELTA Pro will run a 50" TV for 27 hours

The RIVER 2 Pro doesn't have a large enough capacity to run a 2000W electric heater
The DELTA 2 will run an electric heater for 0.4 hours
The DELTA Pro will run an electric heater for 1.5 hours
EcoFlow Portable Power Station in Action

Still not sure which model to go for?

Can't decide which EcoFlow power station to get? Use our runtime calculation below to find out how long each model will power your devices!

How to work out the runtime

By using the following calculation, you can work out the estimated runtime you can get for your other everyday devices using each EcoFlow power station.
 
Watt = Volts x Amps
Watt-hours = Watt x hours
Also, Watt-hours = Volts x Amps x hours
 
For example:
If a Samsung TV input specification is 50V, 4A, then its input is 200W.
DELTA 2 has a capacity of 1024Wh. So the run time in this case, is DELTA 2 capacity divided by TV input. 1024Wh divided by 200W, so the result is around 5 hours.

Mitre Saw:

The input of a Mitre Saw is 1200W. DELTA Pro has a capacity of 3600Wh. Then theoretically, the run time is 3600Wh divided by 1200W, that is 3 hours.

Makita Battery:

A Makita Battery capacity = 5Ah x 18V = 90Wh. RIVER 2 Pro has a capacity of 768Wh. Then theoretically, 768Wh divided by 90W = 8.5, which means you can use RIVER 2 Pro to charge it around 8.5 times.
 
Please note that the real run time will be less than theoretical value, because:

There is efficiency factor for both the AC and DC output ports
Inverters have their own power consumption
