How we worked it out

286 Wh × 0.85 ÷ 15 Wh (a recent phone battery) = 16 charges

Charge over USB, not an outlet: you lose less energy.

Recharging with solar

The EcoFlow RIVER 3 Plus takes at most 220 W of solar panels. Even in full sun, it needs at least 1.3 h to fill up. In winter, it takes much longer.
