Compare EcoFlow RIVER 3 and Romoss RM300
EcoFlow RIVER 3 and Romoss RM300 charging stations have similar characteristics such as nominal power of 300W and peak power of 600W, but they differ in some aspects. EcoFlow RIVER 3 offers a faster UPS function with a switching time of 20 ms, while Romoss RM300 also has 20 ms but additionally offers 15W wireless charging, which can be convenient for users. In terms of outputs, both models have one outlet and two USB A ports, but EcoFlow has a more powerful USB output (100W versus 60W for Romoss). The charging time from an outlet for both models is approximately 60 minutes, but Romoss requires more time for charging from a solar panel (180 minutes versus 156 minutes for EcoFlow). EcoFlow is lighter and more compact (3.5 kg versus 3.95 kg and smaller dimensions), making it a more portable option. Overall, the EcoFlow RIVER 3 may be preferable for those seeking lightness and compactness, while the Romoss RM300 offers additional features such as wireless charging and a flashlight.

Glossary
USB-A
Full-size USB-A connectors are popular in computer technology, commonly used in charging adapters for 230 V household networks and 12 V car sockets. These outputs have become widespread in charging stations for charging gadgets.
— The total number of such ports can be quite varied (1 USB, 2 connectors, 3 ports, and even 4), as they allow for charging and, in some cases, powering various low-power devices — smartphones, tablets, power banks, lamps, and more.
— Current Strength. The maximum current delivered through the USB-A connector to the charging device. Note that different ports of the charging station may output different currents (for example, 1.5 A and 2.1 A). In such cases, the highest current strength is usually specified.
— Power. The maximum output power in watts (W) that the charging station is capable of delivering through the USB-A connector to a single charging gadget.

USB-A (quick charge)
Full-sized USB-A ports with fast charging support. This feature allows you to charge your smartphone, tablet, or other connected devices much more quickly. The charging process occurs at increased power, with current and voltage regulated at each stage to stay within optimal values. However, keep in mind that there are many fast-charging technologies today, and not all of them are compatible with each other.
— Current strength. The current parameters delivered through USB-A fast charging ports. Note that different ports of the charging station may output different voltage and current parameters. This section specifies the current strength values at a certain voltage (for example, 5V / 3A, 9V / 2A, 12V / 1.5A).
— Power. The maximum power in watts (W) that the charging station can deliver through the USB-A fast charging port to a single charging gadget. High output power allows for faster charging. However, the charging device must support the corresponding power; otherwise, the speed will be limited by the gadget's characteristics.

However, the charging device must support the corresponding power; otherwise, the speed will be limited by the gadget's characteristics.
USB-C
USB type C ports are smaller compared to classic USB ports and have a convenient reversible design that allows connecting the plug either way. USB type C was initially created to implement various advanced features: increased power, fast charging technologies, etc.
Since the port is relatively new and quite powerful (you can find USB type C with 60W, even 100W and 140W), the total number of such connectors is often limited to one port, or sometimes two).
— Current. The maximum current delivered through the USB type C port to the device being charged. Note that different ports of a charging station may deliver different currents (for example, 1.5A and 2.1A). In such cases, the highest current is usually specified.
— Power. The maximum power in watts (W) that the charging station can deliver to one charging gadget. The high output power of the USB type C port allows for faster charging. However, the device being charged must support the corresponding power; otherwise, the speed of the process will be limited by the gadget's specifications.

Wireless charging
In wireless charging mode, energy is transferred to the gadget being charged through an inductive surface, which is usually built into the upper plane of the charging station case. There can be one slot for wireless charging or several of them are provided. The range of this technology does not exceed a few centimeters. However, this method of charging eliminates the fuss with wires and reduces wear on the connectors. One of the key disadvantages of this format is considered to be low power and, accordingly, slow charging speed.
Via USB-C port
The ability to replenish energy reserves in the battery cells of the charging station via the USB type C connector. This port itself is small in size and has a convenient double-sided design, thanks to which the plug can be inserted in either direction. However, in charging stations it does not always work as an input interface.
Add. ports
Additional input connectors provided in the design of the charging station in addition to those described above.
Battery capacity
Nominal battery capacity, in fact - the amount of energy that is supposed to be stored. The larger it is, the longer the battery life of the charging station will be, all other things being equal. On the other hand, this parameter also affects the dimensions, weight and price of the battery, despite the fact that an energy-intensive battery is not always required. By the indicator of capacity in watt-hours, you can compare batteries with each other.
Charging time (solar panel) ≈
Time spent on a full charge when using the original panel in bright sunlight. In cloudy weather, the charging time of the device from the solar panel can be strikingly different downwards.
Charging time (cigarette lighter) ≈
The time required to fully (from zero to 100%) charge the battery, provided that power is supplied to the charging station from the car's cigarette lighter socket (12 V).
