The battery never flies.
The EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro (768 Wh) never flies, never rides in the Pelican 1560, and ships ground only as UN3480/3481.
Outpost Power
Power is an add-on ($399, code OUT-PWR): EcoFlow RIVER 2 Pro, 768 Wh LFP. It ships in EcoFlow’s carton with a TwoLfe kraft sleeve and the DC SOP card. The cig→Powerpole pigtail already lives in the Pelican (Lite L22).
- Never inside the Pelican 1560. Not for storage, not for shipping, not “just this once.”
- Never air. 768 Wh is over the FAA 160 Wh passenger limit. Airlines will take it. Do not check it; do not carry it on.
- Ground only, UN3480 / UN3481. Lithium-ion battery, contained in equipment / packed with equipment as the carton dictates. The sleeve must stay on the EcoFlow carton.
- In use the battery stays on the ground next to the case. Feed the panel from the car cigarette outlet (12.6 V / 10 A). The yellow XT60 is solar in only.
The Pelican itself
- Lite / Event: the Pelican is the shipper. Exterior about 22 × 18 × 10 in. Add a cardboard overbox for parcel carriers. One person rolls it. Checked bag, not carry-on.
- I/O is the handle end. Do not lay the case on the connectors.
- Caps on. Purge valve clear. Default kit is AC-only; Power is optional.
- US-only checkout in v1. Export / OFAC review if a kit would leave the US.
Why this is non-negotiable
A swollen 768 Wh pack left in a closed black Pelican is a thermal, shipping, and airline problem. The companion battery is a second carton on purpose. If you do not want a battery, buy Lite or Event and plug the locking AC cable into a wall or generator.
