The weather is warming up and so are your rig and caravan, ready for your next Australian adventure. New memories are on the horizon, but there are a few issues we Lappers always face and can hinder your travels if you don’t have an adequate solution: too much weight, lack of space and lack of reliable power.

Whether you’re travelling with the family or your vehicle is packed to the rafters with camping gear for your solo trip – there’s a perfect solution to resolve both these problems—the EcoFlow Power Kit.

This sleek and compact modular kit is a portable power and renewable energy source. It is perfect for anyone looking to upgrade their off-road power solution or enter the camping game.

You Choose Your EcoFlow Power Kits:

The EcoFlow Power Kits come in 3 different basic kit offerings:

  • The Get Set Kit
  • The Prepared Kit
  • The Independence Kit Each expands upon the last in terms of how substantial you need your off-grid power system to be. They all allow you to customise your battery capacity too, offering 2kWh, 4kWh, 5kWh, 10kWh, and 15kWh options for each Kit.

Get Set Kit

At the most basic level, you can pick up a “Get Set Kit.” They’re off-grid solar system packages with batteries. They include the EcoFlow Power Hub and some of EcoFlow’s stackable LFP batteries.

With an add-on solar panel, you can generate, store and use energy with just three components, primed for expansion when you need it.

Prepared Kit

At the next level up, you can get a “Prepared Kit,” a small solar power system that includes the Power Hub, your choice of batteries, and the Smart Distribution Panel to wire your appliances. Solar panels can then be added on separately to match your needs.

Independence Kit

The most advanced off-grid power system is an “Independence Kit.” As the name implies, it allows you to achieve power independence from the grid with everything Power Kits have to offer. The Power Hub, Batteries, Smart Distribution Panel, Power Kit Console for easy controls, and the Smart Generator for emergency power.

Here’s a quick snapshot of what’s included:

If none of these models suit your power needs, EcoFlow has an option via their website to create a custom design to suit your system in minutes.

The EcoFlow Power Kits come with two basic modules – The EcoFlow Power Hub, which acts as the central node for all inputs and outputs, and EcoFlow’s 2K/5KWh LFP batteries.

EcoFlow Power Hub

Based on your actual power needs, the EcoFlow Power Hub can connect to up to three LFP batteries, which together offer a base capacity of 2KWh and are expandable to 15KWh, allowing users to power a caravan for 18 hours and a tiny house for 11 to 14 hours*.

That’s pretty impressive! Living off-grid or on the road, sometimes you just never know what Australia’s weather is going to bring some days. Particularly if you’re out in Victoria where you can experience 4 seasons in one day. Having a reliable power solution that can last a long time is definitely worth the investment.

In addition, the EcoFlow Power Kits can be bundled with three types of solar panels, including the 100W Rigid/Flexible Solar Panel and the 400W Rigid Solar Panel.

By pairing the EcoFlow Power Kits with the solar panels, customers can achieve a maximum 4800W solar input which can fully charge a 15KWh capacity in about 3 hours!

The EcoFlow Power Kits free Lappers from low-battery anxiety during their long road trips. You can enjoy an off-grid lifestyle that not only fills your cup but is eco-friendly and sustainable.

Solar panels are an extremely effective way to generate electricity for your camping vehicle and are one of the cleanest sources of energy. They don’t release greenhouse and other harmful gasses, and thanks to their source of energy being sunlight – it’s abundant and free.

For more control, the EcoFlow Power Kits can be enhanced with the AC/DC Smart Distribution Panel which connects to up to six caravan AC circuits and 12 DC circuits.

Once connected, you can monitor the power consumption of all 18 circuits and control six of the DC circuits, all via the optional Power Kit Console or EcoFlow app. This easy-to-operate top-to-bottom system makes your outdoor adventure run smoother. Being able to combine five components into one Power Hub to provide all your power needs, is an industry first, saving you space, money and stress.

Everyone has a smartphone these days and most people seem to be joined at the hip with it. Being able to access your power usage at any time of the day and from anywhere, helps give Lappers peace of mind when we’re out adventuring. Just a few taps from the palm of your hand and you’re in total control of your Power Kit.

Life on the road can have its unexpected obstacles – you may not reach your destination before dark meaning you have to set up camp in a rural location. Put your mind at ease and take advantage of shore power for an extra 3000W of input power. Caught short? You can rely on EcoFlow’s Smart Generator for emergency backup.

Sleek Design And Simple Setup

The Power Hub’s design is very sleek and clean. It’s definitely the main piece of the unit and not something that you would want to hide away like other power solutions that can stick out like sore thumbs. Two-toned in colour, the Power Hub is silver and dark grey which compliments the entire Power Kit, including cables and batteries to the console that is in the same colour scheme. It really does look incredible and fits perfectly in such a compact space.

We all know how long and tedious it is to set up a modular power solution in our vehicles – with some units it can genuinely take up to two working days! Imagine having a kit that has a much speedier process. Did you know the EcoFlow Power Kit installation process is three times faster than the industry average? With no more than four modules (not including solar panels) and fewer wires reducing the risk of incorrect wiring, setting up the EcoFlow Power Kit takes around 4 hours to install.

Simple in setup, the EcoFlow Power Kits simplify the demanding installation process of existing custom power solutions, allowing users to tailor their own settings that best fit their power needs with compact and smart modules. Designed for creating custom power solutions, the Power Kits can be personalised to users’ exact needs, whether they are in a caravan or 4X4.

Space Saving Solution

To save yourself valuable space – EcoFlow shrank down the traditional power kit, integrating components and using thinner wires. By doing this, they’ve created a unique stackable battery that can be conveniently concealed along with its batteries and other accessories. Therefore you can move it out of sight if you’re tight on space – try the under seats, in a cupboard or storage area in your vehicle.

Ecoflow FAQs

Can I use the LFP batteries in a cold environment?

Yes. EcoFlow designed the Power Kits to operate in tiny homes or caravans in cold environments too. With built-in auto-heating, you can use the batteries safely in temperatures as low as -20°. You can also use the EcoFlow App to turn on auto-heating while discharging the battery!

How fast do Power Kits charge?

That depends on how many batteries you’ve got and how much input you generate. Let’s take the largest setup as an example – with three 5kWh batteries (15kWh total), and you generate a maximum of 6000W input, you’ll charge to full in 2.5 hours. The calculation is 15,000Wh/6000W to reach 2.5 hours.

In reality, your input will vary due to different lighting conditions hitting your panels, among other things. You can calculate your total capacity, and then divide it by your estimated input to get a rough idea of charge times.

Do Power Kits support third-party solar panels?

Absolutely. If you’ve got your own panels, they may be compatible with EcoFlow Power Kits. There’s one caveat, though – each solar input port on the Power Hub only supports up to 150V, 30A panels. So double check your panels fall on or under that.

Can I use my own batteries with Power Kits?

Unfortunately not. EcoFlow designed Power Kits from the ground up to communicate and operate seamlessly with EcoFlow’s own Power Kits LFP battery range to store energy. When it comes to input options, the system is much more flexible.

So should you invest in the EcoFlow Power Kits?

If you’re looking for a simple, smart and compact power solution, then the simple answer is yes. The EcoFlow Power Kits are the best off-grid solar systems on the market. They’re a new approach to off-grid power, one designed to fit your specific needs without the complications of outdated, older systems, all while saving you tons of time, money and space.
