First Rate Experience
If you want the best price online, you usually have to go to a large corporation and sacrifice customer service. Outbound Power has great prices and not only do they care about customer service, they're even good at it! This satisfied customer will be back!
Thank you so much for your kind review. It was our pleasure to be of service. Thank you for your business!
This is our second battery for this system, having bought the original inverter/battery system. We just had a long power outage and the extra capacity helped us sail through without having to bring in the gas generator to supplement the battery backup.
That’s fantastic to hear, John! Having that extra battery capacity must have made a huge difference during the power outage. It’s great knowing your system handled it so well without needing the gas generator. Thanks for trusting us with your backup power needs—we appreciate your support!
Awesome portable power station. Very efficient with power supply. Has a greater efficiency than my River 2 Pro. Has the latest software and tech at a reasonable price. Highly recommend this product.

I bought my dual fuel 3000 to basically charge my other EcoFlow solar generators when they run low. Solar is very slow so this is a good solution. It was a great price from outbound power performed. Well I prefer to use the propane as it’s much cleaner, also, it does not use the carburetor so the less trouble with the carburetor to me the better. it’s a really good product very well built very easy to use and got a great price.
Hi Jerry,
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback about your dual fuel 3000. We're pleased to hear that it's a great solution for charging your EcoFlow solar generators when solar alone isn’t enough. It’s great that you appreciate the propane option, especially since it’s cleaner and avoids the complications of a carburetor. We're glad you found a good price with Outbound Power and that the product is working well for you.
