The RIVER 3 Plus Wireless in brief
Wireless adds a pound: 11.46 lb here against 10.36 lb for the standard RIVER 3 Plus. The rest reads the same on paper, with 286 Wh of LFP cells rated for 3,000 cycles to 80 percent, 600 W of AC, a 220 W solar input and a 10 ms switchover. A wall plug refills it in 0.8 hours at 380 W, and full solar input does it in 1.7 hours. Two extra batteries from EcoFlow can stretch the system to 572 Wh or 858 Wh. What it runs is a short list: a 220 W electric blanket for 1.1 h to 2.2 h, a laptop for 2.5 h to 6.9 h, a Wi-Fi router for 5.4 h to 28 h.
How long the RIVER 3 Plus Wireless runs things
Times use about 85% of the rated capacity, the part left after inverter and battery losses. At 243 Wh usable and 600 W of AC, a 104 W refrigerator runs 2.6 h to 7 h; the 1305 W startup draw is the real hurdle.
Work out your own mix of loads. A red bar means it draws more than the 600 W this station can supply.
How fast it refills
Solar time assumes panels reach 75% of their rating. Figure it for your state and panels.
Solar panels for the RIVER 3 Plus Wireless
Its XT60i port takes 11 to 55 V, up to 13 A and 220 W. A panel's voltage rises in the cold, so the marks below show each one at 14 F, and a pass here keeps 10% of headroom under the maximum.

Who the RIVER 3 Plus Wireless suits
Buy this one only if the wireless model is the one you want, since the plain RIVER 3 Plus saves a pound and lists a 1,200 W surge rating. For a lighter bag, the Jackery Explorer 300 Plus has 288 Wh at 8.27 lb, but only 300 W of AC and 100 W of solar input, and the maker has discontinued it. With 600 W as the ceiling, a 1500 W kettle or microwave is out, and a 1050 W sump pump is too.

FAQ
Does the RIVER 3 Plus Wireless weigh more than the regular model?
Yes, 11.46 lb against 10.36 lb. The battery, AC output and solar input listed are the same.
How much solar can it take?
Up to 220 W through an XT60i port, within 11 V to 55 V and 13 A. Two of the 110 W, 160 W or 220 W portable panels can go in series, while the 400W Rigid panel goes in alone.
Can it run a coffee maker?
Only briefly. A 1500 W coffee maker draws more than the 600 W output, so it is outside this station's range.
Can I add batteries to it?
Yes. The EB300 adds 286 Wh and the EB600 adds 572 Wh, and the system tops out at 858 Wh.
