Product Information

In fact, once the WAVE 2 has cooled a room to a comfortable temperature it can be switched into either its Eco or Night mode to reduce ambient noise and/or power usage. It is easy to use, energy-efficient, and portable, making it the perfect choice for any home or office. Since I've been testing portable power stations, I have been charging units like the Jackery Explorer 2000 Plus and EcoFlow’s own River 2 Pro with solar panels and using them to run the EcoFlow Wave 2 and charge its battery for free, eco-friendly AC. They won't come apart accidentally, and the battery adds a handle to the back that makes for easier carrying, though the two combined are heavy at almost 50 pounds. without the battery – it’s significantly lighter than a comparable, floor-standing 5000 BTU air conditioner and thus much easier to heft up and down stairs.

If you have larger rooms or those that get much hotter, you’ll need to up the BTU count on a unit and get something larger, such as a more traditional portable unit.This is particularly interesting since MQTT is a relatively standard communication – or message passing – protocol that you can – with a bit of programming – tap into.

Unlike other sites, we test every air conditioning unit we review thoroughly over an extended period of time. It mostly hovered around 400 watts in the standard mode, and I measured sound at around 50 decibels. The five hour run time from the integrated battery suggests EcoFlow’s 8 hour Eco runtime is pretty close to the truth.

Pair with an EcoFlow DELTA 2 / DELTA Max or their extra batteries and get an astonishing 7-14hr run time in Eco Mode. Featuring no less than 4 ways to charge, via AC, solar, a car or your EcoFlow Portable Power Station, you can also enjoy 8 hours of comfort with an add-on battery (sold separately). These are wall-mounted, slimline units which are fixed in place and require two large holes drilled through your brickwork. It didn’t have a prayer of cooling the whole room with people coming and going, but it’s like having a constant, cool, refreshing breeze. In addition to being the holy grail of air conditioners – a portable twin hose system available in the UK – it can – with the addition of a battery and solar panels – unlock energy saving potential.
