EcoFlow: Power Stations Go from Portable to Home Backup!

Load shedding, a recurring challenge for many South Africans, often requires juggling power stations and relocating appliances. But now, there’s a game-changer on the horizon. EcoFlow has introduced a groundbreaking enhancement to its DELTA Series and RIVER Series power stations. This upgrade allows you to seamlessly integrate these advanced power stations into your home circuits with the help of major transfer switches. Say goodbye to the inconvenience of moving power stations around; it’s time for a single-plug solution.

Easy Operation, Seamless Integration

Joy Wu, Head of LAMEA&APAC at EcoFlow, explains the significance of this compatibility, “This empowers users to effortlessly connect EcoFlow portable power stations to their homes, suitable with a variety of transfer switches on the market. In the face of relentless load shedding, this innovation provides an energy-efficient and time-saving solution. Users no longer need to shuffle power stations or appliances around to maintain essential functions. With a single switch, power will course through your home circuit.”

Setting up this home backup power solution is a breeze, taking only about 20 minutes with the assistance of a professional electrician. Once connected to your home’s main panel of electrical circuits via a transfer switch, your EcoFlow power station becomes a reliable source of power for your entire home. From the living room to the kitchen, bathroom, or bedrooms, this solution operates seamlessly, eliminating the need for complex wiring or redundant operations.

Accessible and Reliable Home Power Solution

One of the standout advantages of EcoFlow’s portable power solutions with transfer switch compatibility is their affordability. Joy notes, “The additional cost for a transfer switch in the market is approximately R500-1000. Compared to traditional home power solutions, the EcoFlow combo provides an economical entry point for families seeking dependable backup power.”

Both the DELTA Series and RIVER Series portable power stations are part of this solution, offering up to 10.8kWh of capacity to power an entire home, from critical appliances to lighting and communication devices. The built-in BMS (Battery Management System) provides multiple protections against overload, overvoltage, overheating, and more, ensuring a worry-free experience even during unstable grid power situations.

Limitless Application, Anytime and Anywhere

Aside from their cost-effectiveness, these power stations present a safe and eco-conscious alternative to noisy and polluting fuel generators, making them suitable for household use.

Another noteworthy feature is the portability of EcoFlow’s power stations. Designed for plug-and-play convenience, users can effortlessly unplug their power stations and carry them anywhere, providing adaptable energy solutions for outdoor activities, travel, and emergency situations.

Joy Wu sums it up well, “This innovation marks a significant step forward in the field of home power solutions, simplifying households’ ability to maintain uninterrupted power supply during outages.” For a limited time, the combo of a portable power station and a free transfer switch is now available on EcoFlow’s official website.

Note: This compatibility is applicable to both the EcoFlow DELTA series and the RIVER series; however, the actual performance may differ based on the capacity and rated power of the respective power stations. This solution is not advisable for the RIVER 2 model.
