Hey guys, stay tuned for my wacky April 1st video, but here's a bonus video this week! Even if you're not in the market for a power station, give it a watch just to see my awkward marketing skills.
Will be looking forward to some video’s incorporating the power station, good review Kevin!
Yeah, should be fun on car camping trips!
Good timing i was just thinking about getting one of these
You might be able to find a plug cap at an auto parts store for the car charger Port.
Cool product
Now you need to crash test it. See how high up you can drop it on concrete before it stops working. Put it in the campfire and see how long before it cuts out.
I got the river mini wireless charge when on kickstarter. Still runs strong
Hi small plots can't wait to watch you're video soon how cool is that machine
I just bought an Ecoflow River 2 and it does have a rubber cap for the auto charging port.
Oh great! They must've forgotten mine, or added it later
I definitely will be buying mine soon. Such sage advice and a great explanation of its features and utility.
Thank you Shawn, this comment will look great for the marketing reps
I've been using an Ecoflow for car camping over the last 2 years. Mainly to run LED strip lights, a USB powered ceiling fan, (to combat the swamp ass-y Missouri summers) and charging my phone. Rock solid product
how long do the strip lights run for
@@mcdoonaldsmanager8706 the light strip I purchased only draws 4-5 watts. They'll run forever
@@mocamping74 thanks man
Ty looked at so many reviews just to see if you can hook a TV up to it.
how much wattage was the TV pulling
At end of 23'/near 2024... would you recommend the EcoFlow River 2 or the Bluetti AC2a, assuming pricing is the same? Use case is CarCamping to run heated blankets & fans, charging iPhone and iPad.
I can only speak for the ecoflow, but I've been using it off and on and it works great!
Can I just a 200 watt solar panel and it will restrict charing to 100 watts or must I use a 100 watt or less solar panel to charge this?
Great product. I didn’t like the gaping hole either. I bought a flush mount USB C charger to put in it.
Good idea Joe!
Dang, it. I wanted to stick things in that charger port!
Go Kevin! Nice product review, Small Plots 8K subs coming next!!!
Here's hoping!
Hi. You mentioned in your video that you have to turn off the ecoflow by the small button a the front?... You can set it to turn off by using the app. Have a look in auto timeout and adjust it to your needs... Hope this was of some help... Despite the fact the video was uploaded around a year ago.... 😅
Connect a projector to it and car stealth camp at an abandoned drive-in theater (legally 😉) lol. Happy Fools Eve, looking forward to tomorrow’s vid!
These are excellent to have in a power outage, I bought 2 100watt Harbor Freight solar panels to charge. It’ll be great for your camera crew 😂
Haha yeah, they can run their espresso machine on it
Kevin, the only review I’ve ever watch completely. I like it👍
Thanks, Sandy!
Can you solar charge and have a device plugged in pulling power at the same time?
Yes
Nice review ! Ask them for some free solar panels while you're on a roll .
Think I’ll get one to take on my canoe trips-the canoe I made from window screen and flex seal.
Awesome! There's a coupon code in the description for 5% off, jump on it while it lasts!
Best review ever, lol.
I had needs it didn’t meet, so I changed them.
Check out the BALDR 330.
$219.
How long can you run devices for
Depends on the device!
Thank you for your honest review, Kevin. Most people would have said oh its fine just because they sent it to them." You told the truth that the car charger port needed a cover over it. So that way, it doesn't get dusty. 🤔 I agree with you. 😮 Thank you for sharing your awesome adventures. And thanks for the honesty.
KEEP ADVENTURING
GOD BLESS YOU
🤗HUGS🤗
Thanks susan!
bro... you need to plug it with a cigarette lighter... you can you use it for camping fire or more usb ports
This thing looks pretty sick, I may or may not buy one tomorrow. For real
I like it, I am very interested to see how it helps you in the field so to speak.
Thanks man! I'll def be having it in some vids over the summer
Your hilarious!
😁
If we've used the whole charge... We just plug it into the wall! AMAZING!
WHAT!? If you have a wallplug right nearby, wtf is the point of one of these power stations? Surely the whole idea to have one of these is if you DON'T have a mains plug nearby or because of an outage?
This is a battery, not a power plant. It does not create its own power. It's compatible with solar panels, that'd be your best bet with any battery, as no known technology allows power to be created out of nothing.
How many people do you think started CZcams channels just to hopefully get FREE gear one day? Cool deal Kevin. Time to do a camp with that puppy.
goddamn it. this is like when metallica cut their hair. you jumped the shark
camping with the shawns will never be the same
Haha I'll sell out the second I can 😎
@@smallplots dammit I was hoping you'd play 39 smooth in it's entirety too
Those things are nice but I don’t think it’s practical for your type camping unless you on a car road-trip type camping
You're 100% right there! Car camps only
Guess my comment was removed?
oh no, SQWIB! Sorry about that, CZcams gets weird sometimes with comments sometimes. What did you say?
@@smallplots no problem, I was asking you to do a charge and check the battery after a week or so to see how it holds it's charge.
yes big kev nice 😂
is that a bank on your mantle? the uncle sam looking guy ?
😂kool
It suck big time. I wouldn’t recommend Ecoflow as their support is nonexistent. I purchased River 2 max and the USB-C port died in the first 30 minutes. Now it is already weeks without any solution from EcofFlow. Neither trough their chat service via the app, nor via the email support. If they are not servicing or replacing brand new defective unit, good luck getting any support from them within the promised 5 years warranty. I’m lucky I can return my unit to the shop and never ever have to do anything with EcoFlow again. I recommend you stay away from the products of this scam company too. I was also smart enough to start screen recording the useless conversations with their support team. Video is coming soon.
I think your ready to do commercials.
POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!
Woooooo!
