System standby power: 10W (17% of total draw)
Provides 4× BS 1363 (230V) (120V 60Hz).
Pure sine wave inverter output. Safe for all standard household appliances.
Electronic/resistive load with 1.1× start-up profile (96.9% surge margin).
Wall AC fast charge at up to 940W (55m to 80%, 70m to 100%).
Safe envelope verified: Starting surge (50W) remains comfortably below the 1600W surge trip line, with steady-state operation settling into the safe continuous zone at 45W.
About 13.1 hours on AC power, with the home network rack averaging 45 W (Fiber ONT + Wi-Fi 6 router + 4 PoE IP security cameras + NVR recorder (45 W)). The EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro then draws about 59 W from its battery, including 10 W for the inverter itself. Best case: about 18.1 hours (Fiber ONT optical modem + managed 8-port gigabit switch (30 W)). Worst case: about 8.4 hours (Managed 16-port PoE switch + 8 cameras + local NAS storage server (75 W)).
Yes. Using the 12V DC Regulated Terminal / Barrel Power Kit on the EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro's 12 V car socket, the home network rack runs about 17.6 hours instead of 13.1 hours on AC, 35% longer, because it skips the inverter's conversion loss and its 10 W idle draw.
That simple division gives 17.1 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 17% 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.
It can act as a backup supply: with the home network rack plugged into the EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro and the EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro plugged into the wall, it switches the home network rack to battery in about 30 ms when the grid fails (EcoFlow calls this EPS mode).
