EcoFlow makes the miniature power station even smaller

EcoFlow introduced its fourth-generation River series, including the compact River 260 Gen4 with 256Wh capacity and the River 520 Gen4 with 512Wh. Both use safer, longer-lasting LFP batteries and offer USB ports plus AC output for small devices, appliances, and off-grid gear.

The launch reflects growing demand for lighter, safer portable power as consumers rely on devices like mini fridges, phones, and satellite internet while traveling or during outages. Smaller stations with higher energy density could make backup power more mainstream beyond camping and emergency-prep niches.
