EcoFlow Adds Alternator Charger to Power Solutions Line

EcoFlow

EcoFlow, a portable power and eco-friendly energy solutions company, expanded its suite of “On-the-Road Power Solutions” with the launch of its new Alternator Charger — an industry-first providing travelers and outdoor enthusiasts with fast charging capabilities by harnessing their excess vehicle alternator energy.

Beyond an 800-watt alternator charger, the EcoFlow Alternator Charger also serves as an emergency jump starter for vehicles and includes a built-in battery maintainer to enhance the longevity of the vehicle starter battery.

 

With demand for accessible energy and off-grid comfort across the RV, overlanding and van life communities, there is a need for unrestricted access to electricity that isn’t dependent on fixed power locations or gas generators, EcoFlow said.

Connecting directly to a vehicle’s starter battery, the Alternator Charger installs easily and allows users to drive and recharge select EcoFlow devices and DELTA series power stations simultaneously, ensuring endless energy and providing home-like comfort for any adventure.

With an unprecedented 800 watts of power output and DC-to-DC charging, the Alternator Charger efficiently replenishes 1kWh worth of power in just 1.3 hours while in transit, eight times faster than the 12-volt cigarette charger in the vehicle.

The Alternator Charger can back-feed the vehicle battery from a connected portable power station, allowing it to operate as a jump starter to prevent users from being stranded. Its battery maintainer also ensures the vehicle starter battery stays in peak condition consistently.

Pass-through charging capability allows simultaneous operation of onboard appliances and devices while harnessing solar energy from any connected solar panels — an unparalleled convenience compared to conventional generators.

“With more of our customers looking for ways to enhance off-grid living, the EcoFlow On-the-Road power solutions provide them with home-like comfort while traveling,” said Brian Essenmacher, EcoFlow’s North American head of business development. “Say goodbye to the inconvenience of searching for power sources, the new Alternator Charger bundled with EcoFlow portable power solutions underscores our dedication to expand electrification in the RV and auto industry, fueled by sustainable and efficient power solutions.”

EcoFlow recently expanded its availability for RV enthusiasts with its Winnebago Industries partnership, and integrated Power Kits are now available in Winnebago Solis Pocket 36B. Developed in partnership with the RV manufacturer, these Power Kits feature an exclusive 5-in-1 power management controller that allows hookups from batteries, solar and alternator, all controlled through an intuitive digital touchscreen.

The Alternator Charger is currently available for pre-order with DELTA Series portable power stations at up to 35% off, including a complimentary solar panel, until June 24, on the EcoFlow website and Amazon.com. On May 24, it will become officially available at $599.
