They mean it's guaranteed to look nearly new and not have degregation in excess of 15%
To me it doesn't make a huge difference but to others, it may.

For something like this, I would put REFURB in more than just one place in your post. Would have been appropriate to have REFURB in the title since this is a relatively recent launch and the new product prices are falling quickly (but not this quickly).

also full warranty is a bit misleading when it actually from Allstate.

Just saying.
Nice. They also have the 768W refurb, which comes out to $279 + tax.

As a UPS: am I thinking about this correctly that if you had 24.5W being pulled by a router and modem, that it would last 10 hours?

Not sure it wouldn't last a couple hours longer if you're able to continue to charge with the solar panels.

I don't post often. When I pasted the link, it automatically put the title. I'll see if I can edit it.

As for the warranty. I'm assuming Ecoflow uses 3rd party for warranty support and not their own.. It could be a good thing it's Allstate; sometimes I hear bad things about Ecoflow's warranty.

I suppose I was thinking of this purely as a "regular" UPS, in a closet or wherever. I'm trying to figure out how this price compares to lead-acid UPS units, so I know how much more expensive this is.

Yes, I have one in my rack servicing my eero WiFi and the cable modem. I'm getting 11 hrs of backup from this River 3

20ms automatic switchover is pretty slow. Lots of sensitive electronics require 10ms or less to guarantee that they won't reboot/reset/power off.

Probably more like 8-9, none of these battery/inverter units are perfectly efficient.

Lead-acid UPS capacity is often ~100Wh only so this is cheaper than most normal UPS:s for capacity. Downside is that it cannot supply as much watts as average lead-acid UPS, but not an issue with modem and router only
