Powerful heat pump for flexible use
With the EcoFlow Wave 2 (Review), we took a closer look at a mobile cooling solution from EcoFlow some time ago. Now the successor is coming onto the market. The EcoFlow Wave 3 combines cooling and heating functions in one compact device. With a cooling capacity of 6,100 BTU (approx. 1,800 watts) and a heating capacity of 6,800 BTU (approx. 2,000 watts), it is suitable for use in tents, motorhomes, boats or small rooms up to 17 m².
Thanks to the integrated heat pump technology, the appliance can not only cool, but also heat efficiently. The Wave 3 also offers a dehumidification mode, which ensures a pleasant room climate, especially in humid environments. In sleep mode, the air conditioner operates with a maximum noise level of 44 dB, allowing you to sleep peacefully.
Energy supply and smart control
The Wave 3 can be operated via various energy sources: In addition to the 1,024 Wh removable LFP battery, operation via a socket (up to 700 W), a 12V/24V car connection, solar cells (up to 400 W) or the EcoFlow Alternator Charger (up to 800 W) are also possible.
Up to 8 hours of operation are possible with the battery, whereby the actual running time depends on the selected operating mode and the ambient conditions. It is controlled via the EcoFlow app via WLAN or Bluetooth. Users can choose between different modes, including an automatic temperature mode and a pet mode that activates the air conditioner when the temperature exceeds a certain value.
Conclusion
The EcoFlow Wave 3 offers a powerful and flexible solution for mobile air conditioning and heating. With its combination of high performance, versatile energy options and smart control, it is particularly suitable for use in mobile or off-grid environments. The Wave 3 is available now. The price is 1,299 US dollars including battery, with a discount offered at market launch. The version without battery costs 749 US dollars. Pre-orders are possible until May 25.
