Furthermore, the drop-proof River 2 supports Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, so you can manage it remotely from your mobile phone. It also has a smart battery management system to protect the unit from sudden spikes in voltages and temperatures.
Similar to the more expensive EcoFlow models, the River 2 gets a 5-year service warranty. This is in addition to the battery cells estimated to last 10 years with regular usage.
