EcoFlow PLUS 1000W alternator charger: charge your power station 10x faster while driving

In a converted van, the standard cigarette lighter socket quickly shows its limits when it comes to replenishing the charge of a portable power station: several hours are sometimes needed after a night spent off-grid. The EcoFlow PLUS 1000W alternator charger draws directly on the surplus energy from your vehicle's alternator while driving, to deliver up to 1 kWh in just one hour on the road. No more extended stops at a mains socket or waiting for enough sunshine: your power station charges while you drive, ready to use as soon as you reach your evening spot.

This DC/DC charger combines up to 700 W from the alternator and 300 W from a solar panel connected in parallel, for a combined charging power of up to 1000 W depending on your driving conditions.

Its 3 operating modes include a reverse charging function that periodically supplies the starter battery from your power station or solar panels, to prevent any unexpected engine battery discharge.

Controlled via the EcoFlow app over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, or directly from the vehicle's multimedia screen (compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto), it displays the engine battery voltage and your station's charge level in real time. Its plug-and-play design, with a braided-sheath input cable and direct plug-in terminals, simplifies routing through the firewall and connection, without complex tooling.

A dust-resistant casing (IP4X) and passive fanless cooling ensure lasting durability in an engine environment, while 5 levels of electrical protection safeguard the entire installation.

This charger is aimed primarily at owners of high-capacity power stations who need complete independence: emergency evacuation, long-distance travel or van conversion, without relying on a mains charging point. If your power station is one of these models, or for more modest charging needs, take a look at the EcoFlow 800W alternator charger in our DC/DC chargers and battery isolators section.

How to install the EcoFlow PLUS 1000W alternator charger?

The 5 m input cable supplied connects the vehicle's starter battery to the charger, typically passing through the firewall into the living area where the unit is secured using the included mounting bracket.

The XT150 output cable (1 m, supplied) then connects the charger to your compatible portable power station. Solar cable and panel connectors not supplied: to be sourced separately depending on your configuration. As the connection to the engine battery involves the vehicle's original electrical circuit, verification by a professional is still recommended for a safe installation.
