EcoFlow’s next 24-hour flash sale is here and is now offering two different backup power deals at a significantly reduced price. One is a bundle direct from the brand’s site while the other, the new RIVER 3 Portable Power Station is coming to us via its official Amazon storefront at $169 shipped – plus, you get a free backpack valued at $79. This is the second official time we have seen this model drop down from its $259 price tag, with the first occurring right along with its official release on September 10 to the same rate, albeit without the gifted bag. To claim this deal, be sure to add both the power station and the backpack to your cart, where the discount will be automatically applied.
The next in EcoFlow’s line of compact backup solutions, the RIVER 3 delivers a 245Wh LiFePO4 battery capacity alongside X-GaNPower technology for increased efficiency by “delivering double runtime for appliances under 100W while reducing the size and controlling the volume to less than 30 dB at a distance of 1.5 ft.” It comes with six output options to cover charging needs: two AC ports, two USB-A ports, one USB-C port, and a car port. After draining it to empty, the battery can quickly be recharged in just a single hour plugged into a wall outlet, or hook up a 110W solar panel to refuel in up to 2.6 hours.
There are tons of protections and safety measures built into its design here too, like the X-Guard tech that combines an advanced algorithm with a cloud-based battery monitoring system for 40+ safeguards against various currents, voltages, temperatures, and circuit risks. The most prominent addition though is the X-Boost tech that lets it run larger 600W heating appliances while only using 300W of power, which is a big changeup for folks who prefer these smaller units. The whole thing also arrives waterproof, fireproof, and drop-resistant for better case scenarios when the unexpected unfortunately happens.
The other deal in this flash sale is on the tried and true DELTA 2 Portable Power Station that comes bundled with a smart extra battery and a free waterproof bag for $899, down from $1,798. You’ll get a 2,048Wh capacity with this combo, which you can expand with more extra batteries up to 3,000Wh. It can be recharged via solar charging or get an 80% battery in about 50 minutes through a standard wall outlet. It dishes a reliable output of 1,800W of power to cover a wider array of devices and appliances, with 15 ports to choose from: six ACs, four USB-As, two USB-Cs, and three DCs.
EcoFlow’s Prime Big Deal Days sale will be running through October 13 giving folks up to 50% off its lineup of power stations, bundles, and accessories – with deals on the brand’s new DELTA 3 Portable Power Station too, which are worth checking out. You can browse the entirety of the sale on the landing page here, or head to our Green Deals hub for all the similar sales that are leading up to Amazon’s upcoming 2-day event, with Jackery having a parallel sale running the same timeframe and Bluetti having a short-term sale this week that ends Saturday.
