- Product Introduction
To achieve energy dispatch, all related ecosystem devices need to be placed in the same space within the EcoFlow app and connected to the same network.
By using the EcoFlow Smart Plug or EcoFlow Smart Meter, you can monitor your household power usage and adjust the charge and discharge strategy of the STREAM Series to avoid over-discharging or insufficient discharging, thus avoiding waste. (The strategy cannot be generated based on both the plug and the meter simultaneously, the meter is highly recommended.)
Yes, it supports connecting STREAM Series to most Microinverters on the market through the AC outlets.
Compensation policies may vary by region. You should contact your local grid operator using the contact information provided on your electricity bill to inquire.
The STREAM Series has an IP65 protection rating, suitable for indoor or outdoor use. It is recommended to install it in a cool, shaded, and ventilated area.
Yes, a temperature rise during use is normal and does not affect the product’s lifespan. The unit has passed rigorous testing and includes overheat protection. For best performance, install it out of direct sunlight with at least 3 cm clearance from walls or objects, and away from flammable materials.
To access the full functionality of the STREAM Series, a connection to Wi-Fi and the EcoFlow app is required. Bluetooth or LAN-only connections will not support features like remote control or historical data tracking.
All devices must be connected to the same network and added to the same “Space” within the EcoFlow app.
1. The STREAM Series is an all-in-one system combining a microinverter and battery. PowerStream, on the other hand, is a microinverter that requires a separate purchase of a Portable Power Station to store excess solar energy or to supplement power. 2. STREAM Series supports up to 2000W solar input and 1200W inverter output. PowerStream supports only 800W for both solar input and inverter output. 3. STREAM Series offers greater scalability—up to 6 units can be connected, with both wired and wireless energy balancing. PowerStream supports only one Portable Power Station. 4. STREAM Series supports a bypass output of up to 2300W, which can be powered entirely by solar energy—enough to run a large appliance like a washing machine using just solar power. 5. The STREAM system integrates with more EcoFlow ecosystem products and features an upgraded AI-powered app with smart modes like AI TOU scheduling and solar generation forecasting.
The system prioritizes solar energy. When solar generation falls short of the power demand, the battery automatically steps in to make up the difference. If there’s still a shortfall, the grid supplies the remaining power. When solar output exceeds consumption, the excess energy is first stored in the battery. Any additional surplus can be exported to the grid, depending on your settings and in compliance with local regulations.
Currently, it only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi.
No, the EcoFlow Smart Meter is actually a Home Energy Monitor and is termed as a Smart Meter due to market habits. It is not intended to replace the original Home Meter.
No. / No. The Portable Power Station can only be charged by the STREAM Series products, not discharge to them. If you need to expand capacity or power, you can increase the number of STREAM Series products in the STREAM system (up to 6 devices per system).
The AI TOU feature means that the EcoFlow app will use dynamic electricity price data from the local power company to perform smart charge and discharge strategies based on peak and off-peak pricing, maximizing your electricity bill savings. This feature requires a subscription. *An AI TOU strategy will only be generated when the price difference between peak and off-peak is substantial enough because charging and discharging involve losses. If the economic benefits are less than the battery loss, charging and discharging will not take place.
Not necessarily. It might prioritize using one device's power or discharge multiple devices simultaneously. The system employs an intelligent charging and discharging strategy based on the current power levels of the devices, the power consumption of the appliances, the actual connection setup, and your settings in the app. Thus, the discharging performance of specific devices may vary.
Yes, as long as the solar panel meets the conditions of operating voltage (15-60V) and operating current (≤14A). This can optimize solar utilization during low sunlight conditions.
Due to regulatory limits, it is recommended to connect no more than one microinverter.
If you disable the feed-in protection switch in the EcoFlow app, the excess solar power will be fed into the grid.
You can view real-time energy generation statistics on the EcoFlow app.
No, the AC cable is not extendable. If you need a longer cable, EcoFlow offers 5 m and 15 m AC cables for separate purchase.
