How long will the EcoFlow River 2 run a mini fridge?
Will the EcoFlow River 2 run a mini fridge?
Yes — the River 2 runs a mini fridge comfortably
Its 300W continuous output easily covers the 60W draw, with 600W of surge on tap for startup.
How we calculated this
We start from the EcoFlow River 2's 196 Wh of estimated usable energy at the outlet — its 256 Wh rating, derated for a safe depth of discharge and ~15% inverter loss — then divide by the mini fridge's 60W draw:
196 Wh ÷ 60 W ≈ 3.3 hours
Heads up: a mini fridge is a motor/compressor load that spikes 2–3× on startup. The EcoFlow River 2's 300W continuous / 600W surge output has plenty of headroom for that spike.
Real-world runtime varies with temperature, cable losses, and how hard the appliance actually cycles. Treat this as a solid estimate, not a guarantee.
