Our Review Of EcoFlow Power Kits
TL;DR: Traveling full-time in a converted van, we found EcoFlow’s Power Kit crucial for our digital nomad lifestyle, powering everything from work laptops to our fridge seamlessly. Its easy installation and robust performance make it a top choice for anyone on the road.
My fiance and I have been traveling the country in our converted 2020 Ram Promaster for the past two years. We’ve logged thousands of miles and visited places like the shores of Nova Scotia, the beaches of south Texas, the rugged mountains of Montana, and the luxurious coastline of California. As digital nomads who work full-time jobs, our lifestyle relies heavily on our ability to stay connected to work while enjoying the everyday comforts of a tiny home on wheels. When given the chance to review the EcoFlow Power Kit above, we were thrilled to see if it could meet the demands of our daily power needs working from the van.
It’s Electric
Whether you're staying the night at a cozy campground or boondocking for a week in some remote off-grid location, all RVers have one thing in common, we need electricity to power all our various devices and appliances. EcoFlow has made that simpler than ever with its easy-to-setup Power Kits Everyone from Vanlife DIYers to RV owners looking for a power system update can look to EcoFlow for a robust power solution.
Usage
Our particular build works off of a 3-panel 600-watt solar system attached to the roof of the van. We also have a connection straight from the alternator to power our batteries in case of inclement weather (which happens pretty often since we spend the winter snowboarding the mountain west).
The most important devices for us to power are:
- 8 interior recessed lights that are set on a dimmer
- 2 MacBook Pros that we use for work
- 1 refrigerator
- 1 outlet to power various devices (iPhones, portable chargers, headlamps, etc.)
