Our Review
The most affordable, packable way into solar power — 768Wh and a 220W panel that recharges it in a few hours of sun. Great for light camping, short outages, and CPAP backup; not for heavy appliances.
Specifications
| Capacity | 768 Wh |
|---|---|
| Continuous output | 800 W |
| Surge output | 1600 W |
| Battery chemistry | LiFePO4 |
| Included panel | 220 W |
The River 2 Pro bundle is the entry point to genuine solar independence: a 768Wh LiFePO4 station plus a 220W panel, ready to run off the sun out of the box. It's the lightest, cheapest solar generator we list, which makes it ideal for solo campers, road trips, and as a grab-and-go outage kit.
Its 800W output (1,600W surge) is the honest limit — it'll run a CPAP, laptops, lights, phones, and a small fridge, but not a microwave or full-size refrigerator. The included 220W panel tops the battery in a few hours of good sun, though as always, real-world solar runs below the rating (why here).
Pros
- Most affordable solar generator in our lineup
- Light and packable for solo trips
- 220W panel recharges 768Wh in a few hours of sun
- LiFePO4 battery for long life
Cons
- 800W output won't run high-wattage appliances
- 768Wh is one night for most uses, not multi-day
Who it's for: budget solar buyers and light users. Need to run a fridge or more? Step up to the EcoFlow Delta 2 Solar Generator (currently $684.00).
