EcoFlow makes the miniature power station even smaller

EcoFlow has released its fourth-generation River series of portable power stations, which are smaller and lighter than previous models. These devices feature LFP battery chemistry and high-speed USB-C charging capabilities.
Why it matters
Advancements in portable power technology improve accessibility for off-grid energy needs and emergency backup solutions.
If you’re in the market for a tiny power station that punches well above its size and weight then have a look at EcoFlow’s new fourth-generation River series.
The River 260 Gen4 features a 256Wh capacity battery while the 520 Gen4 packs in 512Wh — storing about 2.5x and 5x the energy of the largest airline-approved power banks, respectively. Better yet, the batteries are built using longer-lasting LFP chemistry that’s far less volatile. The River 260 Gen4 features four USB ports, and 300W of max continuous output delivered out its lone AC jack. The River 500 Gen4 features the same USB port selection but offers a pair of AC jacks good for 500W of continuous output.
