With EcoFlow’s advanced software algorithm, the WAVE 2 offers multiple modes and app control. It runs quietly (44 dB) in Sleep Mode and up to 8 hours in Eco Mode. This means that the air conditioner can be used at any time of the day or night without causing any disturbance. Experience longer-lasting comfort in your tent, RV, or home with its powerful and portable design. Is the EcoFlow WAVE 2 Eco-Friendly? Read on to see how WAVE 2 brings things to a whole new level of cool (and heat!) with the latest innovation in on-the-go temperature control. 20% Smaller No drainage is needed in cooling mode when humidity is below 70%, but it is still needed in heating mode. Silent Running of The EcoFlow WAVE 2 Portable Air Conditioner

One of the most significant upgrades of the WAVE’s newest generation is its heating and cooling capabilities. The original WAVE Portable AC was a powerful unit — but it was limited to only cooling. Highly compact at 20.4” × 11.7” × 13.2” (518 × 297 × 336 mm), you can take WAVE 2 anywhere — from road trips to camping adventures, without sacrificing valuable space in your motorhome, car, or your living room. 27% More Powerful EcoFlow Wave 2 offers 5100 BTU cooling and 6100 BTU heating performance using an inverter compressor integrated with an advanced algorithm that helps ensure decent air conditioning performanceThere’s only one real downside to using the unit outside: its onboard temperature sensor is effectively useless, as it’s measuring the outside temperature, not the temperature inside the room. Where you can, then, inside use is best. In terms of its actual cooling ability, we were definitely impressed. We tested it in an insulated camper van that was parked in direct 90 degree sunlight and found it to work quite well at providing noticeably cooler temps within mere minutes. That said, it’s very effective as a spot cooler when sitting right in front of the cold air output. But it’s definitely sufficient for small sealed spaces. Actual Energy Use in Cooling Mode (~370 to 400 watts max) Most ‘portable’ aircon units are still chunky boxes on wheels, but the EcoFlow Wave 2 is considerably smaller (336 x 297 x 518mm). At 14.5kg, it’s not a light device, but it’s certainly lighter than most air conditioning units. At this kind of size, the Wave 2 can be carried around the house, or out to the car to take away for a camping trip. As we stated, heating mode takes a bit more time to begin. We’re not exactly sure why, but it may need extra time to prime the heating element. This seems to be especially true when transitioning from cool to heat mode, which probably won’t happen too often in real world scenarios.

The Ecoflow WAVE 2 Portable ACis a smart, portable cooling and heating solution for those needing a compact but powerful unit. Its no-drainage design in cooling mode makes it ideal for people who don’t want to deal with installation or hiring a professional.While the air conditioner compressor is under operation, it works by diverting warm air out of the intake and exhausting it through the ducting. As a result, hot air will be pumping out of the unit as cold air is being delivered out the front. While on Eco mode, with EcoFlow's exclusive technology of Smart Battery Allocation Algorithm, Wave 2 can balance between cooling mode and fan mode to provide users with an expected long runtime.

The Everdure CUBE charcoal grill is a unique little grill that can truly go almost anywhere with you. It’s lightweight and only 17-inches long, yet still can handle almost any grilling challenge a griller on the go could hope to throw at it. It has a built-in heat protection shield and chrome handles that remain cool while cooking, and the removable charcoal tray offers easy cleanup when you’re finished at the campground or on the beach. Wherever you intend to do some grilling this summer, the Everdure CUBE charcoal grill is a great option as a copilot. The EcoFlow Wave 2 is a game changer when it comes to efficient heating and cooling. While it’s not perfect, it’s likely the best portable air conditioner currently available on the market. And with its ability to act as a heater as well, there’s truly nothing similar to compare it to, putting it in a class of its own. It’s relatively quiet, portable and well designed. With rising energy costs and extreme weather events, staying cool during the summer months and heat waves is becoming more challenging and expensive. But with the right portable air conditioning unit, there are ways to achieve excellent cooling power to keep comfortable, off the grid, or on the go. Using this battery is neater, as it clips into the bottom and becomes fully integrated. However, if you have a compatible power station, such as the Delta 2, you can buy a cable that links the two together, reusing your existing battery.The Wave 2 from EcoFlow advances portable air conditioning to a palpable level for off-grid users. It adds a few new features from the original EcoFlow Wave including a heat function, improved cooling times, a new display screen interface and a slightly more compact/lighter build. Speaking of, the add-on battery is a nice addition (if you can afford it). It slides right onto the base, latches into position and connects via the included XT150 cable. The battery has a built-in handle with a power button and LED battery-life indicators on the front. There’s also a USB-C and USB-A charging port on the front corner of the battery – pretty cool. To charge the battery, you need to plug in the EcoFlow Wave 2. If the AC unit is off, the battery will draw 700 watts and recharge in around three hours. Turn the EcoFlow Wave 2 on, and it will run normally, but the battery charges more slowly. One slight annoyance is that you can only charge it when it's connected to the Wave 2. But, aside from the ability to go off-grid, the battery also affords you some flexibility about how and when you charge up and how expensive the Wave 2 will be to run. That makes it well worth considering.
