EcoFlow Power Kits are the world’s first integrated plug and play power solution especially designed for camper vans, motorhomes, caravans, and off grid homes. Each Power Kit can be tailored to your own needs and specifications from the range of modular options.
Fully Customisable 5kWh Power Kits
EcoFlow Power Kits are fully customisable for any van size or your off-grid home. The modular system lets you build at your pace whether you’re replacing your existing electrics or installing a new system from scratch. All the EcoFlow 5kWh Power Kits are plug and play compatible for quick and easy installation and expansion.
Power Kits Battery Range
Choosing the right battery combination is one of your first considerations when designing you vans power system or off-grid house. With the choice of either a 2kWh LPF battery (2048Wh) or the 5kWh LPF battery (5120Wh) options, you can build a truly awesome power supply. Both batteries are Lithium Iron Phosphate and have over 3000+ cycles up to 80% capacity
The modular stackable design of the battery packs makes for compact storage and quick expandability. The 2kWh battery can be expanded up to 6kWh, the 5kWh battery can be expanded up to 15kWh (max capacity of the EcoFlow Power Hub).
What Are the Ways You Can Recharge the EcoFlow 5kWh Power Kits?
You can recharge your batteries fast and by 4 different methods. Using the EcoFlow ridged solar panels you can use up to 4800W* of solar input across three 1600W ports. Connect your camper vans alternator to the Power Kit and you can charge at 1000W. If you are at a site with an electrical hook-up, then you can utilise this with up to 3000W of charging input power. Lastly, if you’re wild camping you can use the Ecoflow Smart Generator. This will keep all your batteries topped up with 1800W of input power.
*Tested using a production model in a closed environment with favourable conditions. Actual results may vary depending on environment, usage, and firmware version.
Simple Installation of the EcoFlow 5kWh Power Kits
By using a quick and easy plug and play modular system the EcoFlow 5kWh Power Kits can be easily put together and customised to your own designs. Batteries simply stack to increase capacity or plug in a solar panel for clean green power.
Power Kits combine five components into one Power Hub that deals with all your power needs, saving you space, money, and set-up hassle.
48V Power Solution for Safer Power
Power Kits offer you a safe, 48V power solution for your van, motorhome, or off-grid home. A 48V system produces the same amount of power, but unlike 12Vs, only a quarter of the electric current passes through the wires, producing significantly less heat and power loss.
The EcoFlow Power Hub puts out up to 3600W (surge 7200) of AC pure sine wave power. Plus, it is capable of producing up to 1600W of DC power (26.4V/60A).
Smart Controls of the EcoFlow Power Kits
Keep an eye on your energy at home and on the go with a whole host of setting options and real-time data tracking accessible from the app and Power Kit Console.
Use the EcoFlow app to monitor power usage, stored energy, and circuit status. Customise basic power settings and adjust your AC and alternator input charging currents. Check the app to quickly get an overview of system health, view and resolve errors as well as update firmware from wherever you are.

...When will I receive my order?
In most cases, a product on our website will give you an indication of the current stock availability, but shipping is not uniform for all products. We maintain fantastic relationships with all of our suppliers and we aim to get products to customers within 3 business days of the order being taken. This availability is based on information from our suppliers and from sales and supply patterns. The availability information given is a guide only and not a guarantee as there are external factors that we may not have control over.
Coronavirus Update – UK couriers and transport companies will not currently guarantee delivery times and we are seeing a slight delay in deliveries – please bear this in mind when ordering.
Specialist Couriers – Some items such as the larger portable power stations are sent by specialist courier as standard couriers will not accept them. These specialist couriers are very reliable but sometimes don’t have tracking or timed delivery.
Split deliveries – We sometimes need to send orders for more than one item by different courier networks (portable power stations for example) – so you may receive items at different times.
1500rpm machines or larger diesel gensets however are typically priced on application and all depend on the destination. We will be happy to quote on any large diesel generator and discuss your needs over the phone or via email.
Most orders placed before 12pm on a business day will be shipped from our suppliers on the same day provided the product is in stock. If you need to be certain an item is in stock and available, or if you need a lead time, it’s worth calling our sales team on 01329 722390. Pricing for extended shipping areas like Northern Ireland, the Scottish Highlands and outlying Islands, Outer Hebrides, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Scilly Isles, and other postcodes not considered as UK mainland can be obtained also by calling our offices.
Please note that the processing of a payment and acknowledgement email does not constitute a legally binding contact. In the case of mispricing, changes in stock quantity, or if we believe the machine will be misused, we reserve the right to cancel the order and provide a full refund.
Heavy Items
You will be contacted by phone after ordering a larger item to confirm a delivery date before your order is dispatched. Large or heavy items are dispatched through a pallet network, so if we can’t get in contact with you, we may be unable to send out your item on a next day delivery. Please be sure to include a working phone number with your order.
Heavy items will require the recipient to make arrangements to take delivery of the goods and may require the recipient to help the courier unload the item. For items that are delivered on a pallet the courier will leave the pallet as close to your door as possible.
1500rpm diesel generators will require forklift (or similar) offloading; if this is not available then we can arrange a Hiab offload at an additional price – please call us to discuss any delivery requirements.
