≈ 0.7 days (24h/day) · Safe motor start buffer (59.4% margin).
chest freezer running (165 W max) and start-up (950 W max) draw fit the EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro's 800 W continuous / 1,600 W surge ratings.
5–7 cu ft chest freezer with lid kept closed (~29% duty cycle, 23 W avg)
10–15 cu ft chest freezer at ~30% compressor duty cycle (33 W avg)
16–22 cu ft chest freezer or warm garage ambient (~32% duty cycle, 52 W avg)
≈ 0.7 days (24h/day)
System standby power: 10W (21.5% of total draw)
Provides 4× BS 1363 (230V) (120V 60Hz).
Pure sine wave inverter output. Safe for all standard household appliances.
Inductive motor/compressor load with 5.7× starting surge (motor inrush) (59.4% worst-case surge margin).
Wall AC fast charge at up to 940W (55m to 80%, 70m to 100%).
Safe envelope verified: Starting surge (650W) remains comfortably below the 1600W surge trip line, with steady-state operation settling into the safe continuous zone at 115W.
About 16.5 hours on AC power, with the chest freezer averaging 33 W (10–15 cu ft chest freezer at ~30% compressor duty cycle (33 W avg)). The EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro then draws about 46 W from its battery, including 10 W for the inverter itself. Best case: about 22 hours (5–7 cu ft chest freezer with lid kept closed (~29% duty cycle, 23 W avg)). Worst case: about 11.4 hours (16–22 cu ft chest freezer or warm garage ambient (~32% duty cycle, 52 W avg)).
Yes. The chest freezer's start-up peak of about 650 W (up to 950 W) fits within the EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro's 1,600 W surge rating, with 41% headroom even in the worst case.
That simple division gives 23 hours, but the EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro's inverter draws about 10 W whenever its AC outlets are on. At this light load that's 22% of everything the battery supplies, and inverter conversion losses take a further share. The idle figure comes from EcoFlow.
On wall power: about 55 minutes to 80% and 70 minutes to full (EcoFlow figures). With its maximum 220 W of solar input connected, expect about 176 W in full sun, so a full recharge takes roughly 4.6 hours of full sun, about 1.2 days at 4 peak sun hours a day.
