How Long Will It Run

How long will an EcoFlow RIVER Pro run a TV, 43 inch LED?

About 6.2 hours — 6 h 12 min typically, from 5 h 50 min in the worst case to 6 h 34 min at best. That assumes a TV, 43 inch LED pulling 70 W continuously, plus the station's 10 W AC mains socket overhead — 80 W in total out of 496 usable watt-hours.

HDR content and a bright room both push a modern set well above its average figure.

  • 0.8 nights of eight hours, or 0.26 days of continuous running.
  • Usable energy: 496 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 2,642 Wh of rated capacity — 3.7× this station.
  • Start-up: the TV, 43 inch LED asks for 70 W at switch-on against this station's 1,200 W peak — comfortable.
