FAQs
What is the maximum number of devices I can power at once?
You can power multiple devices simultaneously as long as their total power draw does not exceed the unit's continuous output limit of 600W and peak output limit of 1200W. Refer to the device specifications for their power consumption.
How long does the built-in battery last on a full charge?
The runtime depends on the power consumption of the connected devices. For example, a 100W device can run for approximately 2.86 hours (286Wh / 100W), but with X-GaNPower efficiency for devices under 100W, runtime can be extended.
Can I charge the RIVER 3 Plus while it's powering other devices?
Yes, the RIVER 3 Plus supports pass-through charging, meaning you can charge the unit while it is simultaneously powering other devices.
What is the lifespan of the LiFePO4 battery?
The LiFePO4 battery is designed to last over 3000 cycles before its capacity drops to 80% of the original, which equates to approximately 10 years of daily use.
How do I connect an expansion battery?
Expansion batteries connect wirelessly using Pogo-pin technology. Ensure the power station and the expansion battery are turned off before connecting. Refer to the specific instructions for your expansion battery model.
What is the warranty period for the RIVER 3 Plus?
Please refer to the official EF ECOFLOW warranty documentation for the specific warranty period and terms applicable to the RIVER 3 Plus.
Can I use the unit in freezing temperatures?
The operating temperature range for discharge is typically 14°F to 140°F (-10°C to 60°C). However, charging the battery is generally not recommended below 32°F (0°C). It's best to keep the unit within a moderate temperature range for optimal performance and battery health.
Troubleshooting
Unit does not turn on
Ensure the battery is charged. Press and hold the power button for a few seconds. Check if the unit is in a protected mode; refer to the app or manual.
Device not charging from the unit
Verify the device's power draw is within the unit's output limits (1200W peak, 600W continuous). Check the cable connections. Try a different output port or device.
Unit is charging very slowly
If charging via AC, ensure the power source is stable. If charging via solar, ensure the solar panels are correctly positioned and receiving direct sunlight. Check if multiple devices are drawing power simultaneously while charging.
App not connecting to the unit
Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone. Restart both the app and the power station. Check if the unit is within Bluetooth range. Ensure you have the latest version of the EF ECOFLOW app.
UPS mode not engaging
Ensure the unit is plugged into the AC power source and the AC output is enabled. Check the app for any UPS-related error messages. The UPS function is only active when the unit is plugged into AC power.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The RIVER 3 Plus is ready to use out of the box. Simply press the power button to turn it on. Connect your devices to the appropriate output ports (AC, USB-A, USB-C, Car Outlet). To charge the unit, connect the included AC power adapter or a compatible solar panel to the charging input port.
Compatibility: This power station is compatible with most devices that draw 1200W or less (peak) and 600W or less (continuous). Ensure your device's power requirements do not exceed these limits. For expanded capacity, ensure you use only officially supported EF ECOFLOW expansion batteries (EB300 or EB600) and follow the connection instructions carefully.
Care: Keep the unit in a dry environment, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use water or solvents. Ensure ventilation ports are clear of dust and debris to maintain optimal performance and prevent overheating. Avoid fully discharging the battery regularly; aim to keep it charged between 20% and 80% for long-term battery health.
