Frequently-Asked Questions
Where can I place my EcoFlow PowerInsight?
There are two ways to place it: on the wall or on flat surfaces. 1. On the Wall: You can fix the bracket to the wall, and then place PowerInsight onto the bracket. (The bracket and the fixing screws required for installation are included in the installation list.) 2. On Flat Surfaces: Place it on a stand holder (not included in the box) like a tablet.

No.
How is it different from running the app on a tablet? Can I use a third-party tablet instead of PowerInsight?
It cannot be completely replaced. PowerInsight has the following advantages: 1. PowerInsight comes with a 10.1-inch screen and a customized information interface, allowing users to obtain key energy management information at a glance. The operation is simple, with fast mode/scene adjustment capabilities, and handy functions such as network configuration, device sharing, and service acquisition. 2. PowerInsight supports offline data storage. Even if there is no Internet connection, you can still view the connected device and store data normally. (LAN control function is currently under development.) 3. Automatic control and adjustment with several built-in sensors at your fingertips. 4. PowerInsight supports the Matter protocol, which allows you to connect more home smart devices.
Can one of the two Type-C ports of the bracket be used for output?
No, the Type-C port cannot be used for output.
Do I need to keep it plugged in?
The product has a built-in 3000mAh battery that provides a battery life of over 3 hours.

What is Matter?
Matter is a relatively new communication protocol used in smart home devices. Matter offers significant advantages in interoperability, simplicity, security, compatibility, and scalability.
How to add Matter devices to the EcoFlow ecosystem?
The steps are as follows: 1. Bind PowerInsight and EcoFlow app. Click [Settings] > [Matter] > [Bind Matter] on PowerInsight. The QR code will be displayed on the screen. Then click [+] > [Scan] on EcoFlow app to scan the QR code on the PowerInsight screen to complete the binding. 2. Add Matter devices to EcoFlow app. Use EcoFlow app to scan the QR code of the Matter device to complete the connection.
Can I use EcoFlow app to scan the Matter QR code of EcoFlow Smart Plug to add this device?
No. To add an EcoFlow Smart Plug, please click [+] > [Add Device] in EcoFlow app to complete the addition. This method can obtain more device data and intelligent services than adding by scanning the Matter QR code.
What are the requirements for the mobile phone and the Wi-Fi connection to PowerInsight when adding Matter devices?
1. When adding a Matter device, the mobile phone needs to be connected to a 2.4G Wi-Fi band. 2. When the mobile phone and PowerInsight’s [Matter network] are connected to a dual-band Wi-Fi, routers from some manufacturers may not support adding Matter devices. If you encounter failure to add a device under a dual-band router, you can change the connection to a 2.4G band router and try again.
How many Matter devices can be added to one account?
Currently, up to 16 devices are supported to be added to one account, and we plan to add more in the future.
