Quote from Ion Control :
After the recent Anker deals, this feels overpriced
This switches about as fast as a UPS, so different functions. Better than the old lead acid ups's for sure.

River 3 plus does not have usb-c in to take the charge like river 2 does. But its expanded battery does have usb-c in to take the charge. Right now EB300 has $179 discount price from both wellbots and amazon. For my prime account it has EF promotion discount $8.95, so sale price down to $170.05

This is an excellent unit for traditional UPS upgrade with 10ms response time. It has much larger capacity than typical UPS so that the computer can last longer in a power outage. Since its battery can last 10 years, there is no hassle of replacing the battery like traditional UPS. This is the biggest advantage over traditional UPS such as APC.
It is also great for IoT applications with solar panel for long-term usage where the power supply is not available.
I had great experience with refurbished unit of Ecoflow from Ebay. Hope that the price can drop a little bit more since I bought brand new from Amazon for $189 last year.

These are good. I wouldn't replace a regular UPS with it but if you don't already have one it's good. Software is garbage it doesn't die up as a regular UPS

It's fast but it's still not fast enough sometimes and voltage cutoffs aren't as tight. And do not use xboost it just drops the voltage

If you are expecting to use as a UPS for a heavy gaming rig or high wattage a traditional UPS is best because it can handle that transfer and high wattage.

This is more suited to an office PC, Synology and router etc

Lifepo4 batteries can't handle it (yet) like lead acid that's why we haven't seen a huge shift in UPS batteries yet. And those that have replaced theirs have run into issues during high load cutoffs. If your gaming rig is idle it will most likely be fine, but if it's pulling 600w+ probably not

You can charge all the generators with USB C - that's why it seems only that extra batteries natively support bi directional
