EcoFlow Unveils RIVER Bank: First-of-its-Kind, Airplane-Friendly, Modular Portable Power Station
Available for pre-order today, RIVER Bank offers largest FAA compliant power capacity for charging laptops, cameras, phones and more
SAN FRANCISCO, May 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- EcoFlow, a pioneering portable power company that is reinventing the way the world accesses energy, today announced the first-of-its-kind airplane-friendly, stackable, portable power station, RIVER Bank. Capable of simultaneously charging up to six devices, including laptops, RIVER Bank comes with a variety of charging ports, including USB, USB-C, AC, car jump-starter and Qi-standard 10W wireless quick charging, for powering devices on flights, camping trips, on-location shooting, emergency situations and more. RIVER Bank is also equipped with a USB hub for data and file transfer on-the-go and in remote locations. Each module contains between 40 and 100Wh (watt-hours) of power, making RIVER Bank the largest capacity battery product in the world that you can fly with under current FAA regulations.
RIVER Bank's unique modular design with interchangeable sub-modules (AC Module & Car Module) allows energy to flow through the units for combined power capacity and accommodates a variety of charging ports. For Qi-standard devices, the position free wireless charging delivers a 10W quick charge – up to two times faster than wall charging. To comply with FAA regulations, EcoFlow created stackable battery pack modules, each containing between 40 and 100Wh (the FAA limits multiple carry-on battery packs to 100Wh capacity), though the modules can be stacked to transfer power between each other. Providing a combined total power of nearly 200Wh – RIVER Bank can recharge a laptop 1-4 times, a tablet 3-6 times, a phone 9-30 times and a DSLR camera 10-25 times (depending on module configuration and device model).
"After a successful launch of RIVER, EcoFlow's first portable power station, we are thrilled to bring the next generation of smart, clean portable power to the market," said Eli Harris, cofounder and CEO of EcoFlow. "RIVER Bank allows consumers to travel the world without having to worry about their power needs and furthers our long-term mission for widespread adoption of clean energy."
Created to meet the on-the-go power needs of business travelers, proAV professionals, photographers, outdoor enthusiasts, everyday consumers, and more, RIVER Bank is versatile and can charge everything from smartphones and laptops to cameras and speakers, and can even jump-start a car. It can easily be recharged by plugging into a wall socket, connecting to a car lighter, EcoFlow's portable solar panels or by stacking the modules to charge each other. RIVER Bank's compact, flexible design allows consumers to charge all their devices everywhere they go, even in the most remote locations. Designed by several of the world's leading battery engineers, RIVER Bank follows the most stringent safety measures in the industry.
