These four EcoFlow power stations span a wide range of listed prices, from USD 161.25 to USD 4,999.00, and they cover everything from a small portable reserve for camping to a 7200W whole-home backup system.

EcoFlow RIVER 2 Portable Power Station 256Wh Generator LFP Certified Refurbished
If your outdoor power need is small devices while camping, this is the unit that keeps the entry cost low. At USD 161.25, it has 300W of continuous output with 600W surge. The LFP cells are rated for more than 3000 cycles before hitting 80%. The trade-off is the 256Wh capacity: it will charge phones, lights, and small electronics, but don't expect it to run a refrigerator or a power tool. The AC recharge time of about one hour is a strong match for a unit this size.
EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro 768Wh Portable Power Station LFP Certified Refurbished
At USD 348.75, the RIVER 2 Pro offers a substantially higher output ceiling with 800W total and 1600W surge. Eleven outlets let you run several devices at once, and the listing highlights fast solar charging. The LFP battery has the same long-cycle chemistry. Compared with the DELTA Pro Ultra, this is a portable, 120V-oriented unit; the 768Wh capacity is better suited to appliances than the RIVER 2 but still well below the 12kWh scale of the DELTA line.
EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra 12kWh LiFePo4 Power Station, Whole Home Power-cut Backup (Very Good Refurbished)
If your goal is whole-home backup, this listing at USD 4,799.00 is the lower-priced DELTA Pro Ultra option. It keeps the same 7200W output, 120V/240V outlets, and 6144Wh base capacity, expandable up to 90kWh. The condition is listed as Very Good - Refurbished, which is a shade different from the Certified - Refurbished label on the other DELTA Pro Ultra. For someone who wants the full output and expansion path, this is the better price of the two.
EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra 12kWh Power Station Lifepo4, Certified Refurbished
At USD 4,999.00, this is the highest listed price in the group. For that, you get the same 7200W output and 120V/240V capability plus the Certified - Refurbished condition label. The LFP chemistry is rated for 3500 cycles to 80%+ capacity and the unit can expand from 6144Wh up to 90kWh. If the certification label matters to you more than the USD 200 difference between the two DELTA Pro Ultra listings, this is the one to pick.
Final Recommendation by Use Case
- Choose the RIVER 2 for the lowest listed price and light essentials.
- Choose the RIVER 2 Pro when you need 1600W surge and more ports.
- Choose the DELTA Pro Ultra (Very Good) for whole-home backup at the lower of the two DELTA prices.
