How long will an EcoFlow RIVER Pro run a heated jacket battery?
A little over a day — 24 h 55 min typically, from 23 h 52 min in the worst case to 25 h 27 min at best. That assumes a heated jacket battery pulling 20 W continuously, plus the station's 2 W USB-C / USB-A overhead — 22 W in total out of 548 usable watt-hours.
This appliance runs from the station's USB-C / USB-A, which skips the inverter — that is worth roughly 11% more running time than the same load through a mains socket.
The numbers
| Setup | Average draw | Cautious | Typical | Best case |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × heated jacket battery, UK 230 V | 22 W | 23 h 52 min | 24 h 55 min | 25 h 27 min |
| 2 × heated jacket battery, UK 230 V | 42 W | 12 h 30 min | 13 h 3 min | 13 h 20 min |
| 1 × heated jacket battery, US 120 V | 22 W | 23 h 52 min | 24 h 55 min | 25 h 27 min |
- 3.1 nights of eight hours, or 1.04 days of continuous running.
- Usable energy: 548 Wh of the 720 Wh on the box, after chemistry, inverter losses and the reserve.
- To keep it going for a full 24 hours you would need about 896 Wh of rated capacity — 1.2× this station.
- Start-up: the heated jacket battery asks for 20 W at switch-on against this station's 1,200 W peak — comfortable.

If this is for a power cut
For warmth without a power station, a power bank runs USB heated clothing for hours, and the no-power options cost pennies.
Without a power station: a 20,000 mAh power bank runs a USB heated gilet for about 7 h 24 min. See the power bank numbers.
Hand warmers. Air-activated packs give hours of heat with no power at all, and a pocketful helps children and older relatives.
Look for: Long-duration packs, and the expiry date on bulk boxes.

What changes the answer
| If instead… | Typical runtime | Change |
|---|---|---|
| The pack is two years old | 22 h 56 min | -8% |
| The pack is five years old | 19 h 56 min | -20% |
| It is −10 °C outside | 19 h 56 min | -20% |
| You run it flat, no reserve | 27 h 41 min | +11% |
| You keep 20% back | 22 h 9 min | -11% |
Charges from USB in an hour or two; negligible against any station.
