Without light and communication: Russians can control ecoflow stations of the Armed Forces how to prevent it from

If you do not restrict access, anyone with a smartphone can change charging stations. The Ecoflow distributor in Ukraine called a simple solution, but few people know about it. Ukrainian military Volodymyr Zinchenko noted that the corporate application allows you to connect to other people's charging stations Ecoflow via Bluetooth and change their settings. The focus has learned why this is happening and how users of devices can protect against the intervention.

Volodymyr Zinchenko made an unexpected observation, passing by a dwelling house - his smartphone was able to connect to several Ecoflow stations with Delta model line using Bluetooth, and then received full access to stations through mobile internet. "That is, access to the admin is not closed, which pushes the unpleasant conclusions of possible actions," the author said on Facebook. "The military guys, keep it in mind.

" In conversation with focus, Volodymyr Zinchenko explained that it is quite dangerous for Ukraine's defenders, as many units use Ecoflow devices in the war zone. Once connected to the station through Bluetooth, the user can then change the settings online from anywhere by giving access to the station to the global Internet through home-fi home.

Directly on the line of combat collision, the enemy can take advantage of vulnerability and turn off the power from charging stations before storming, depriving Ukrainian lighting and communication fighters. In the rear cities, collaborators can do the same at the headquarters if there are power outages and the commanders will not have a generator.

In a comment to the post, the Ecoflow District Representative explained that a third -party user can only connect to the charging station if the station (user) of the station did not register an account in the Ecoflow Power A New World application and did not tie it to his device. If done, no one else will be able to connect to the device. Sergei Silin, Brand-Manager Ecoflow, Droneua, which is an exclusive distributor and representative of Ecoflow in Ukraine, told more about this focus situation.

He says the military has already addressed such a problem. "Let's start with the fact that Ecoflow was not developed for military operations, but more as a device for relaxation, travel or, in the following years, to ensure the power of people in everyday life that it is needed. Now, if you purchased the station and connected it to Annex, so they tied the device to themselves.

In recent years, the Ecoflow manufacturer has done in such a way that you can register a single owner, which can then share access with others. To do this, add the email address of the user you want. In order for this function to be accurately available in the application, you need to update it to the latest version.
