If someone thinks it’s a good idea to buy a delta 2 with expansion battery, please reconsider your choice. The spare battery is almost the same price as a second delta 2, if you buy 2 units, (delta 2s) the price isn’t much more and you will have several advantages. The units can be charged at the same time, if you get the expansion battery your wall charge time will double as the extra battery cannot be charged without being attached to the delta 2. Also you get 2 solar inputs. Move one into the sun with solar panels, and still be able to use the other one. Also if anything ever goes wrong and fails, either solar input, inverter problem, or dc output problem, you can still use one unit while the other gets repaired. I think if you’re going to buy the expansion battery, you would be better served by getting 2 units.
Good advice, BUT -can you connect them together? thereby increasing your overall capacity and run time of an air conditioner, WITHOUT having to switch units when one runs down? IN other words can they be paired and function as one unit with a higher capacity? Im trying to decide

@@SB-xu8pi Hey, thanks for the reply and your thoughts. Hmm, all interesting. Im trying to decide for my RV too, but it'll be stationary for while I build my small home. My Bluetti AC180 will run my little A/C for 2 hours on its own, as the A/C only pulls 450-500 watts. But I don't plan to use ithe AC180 for my A/C, rather for incidentals in RV- electric kettle, phone/computer charging, blender, toaster, etc, Fortunately, I can use propane for heating, fridge, oven etc. Anyway, I am totally off grid, so I plan to apply at least 800-1200 watts of rigid panels, to hopefully offset the draw of the A/C ( and fans) and charge the power station at the same time. Really it's just for HOT days or when I leave my animals there alone. BUT I'm thinking that amount of solar could get messy or complicated/picky for delta 2 or 2 max. I like your idea of using a 5kWh battery bank to charge up the delta- smart. I guess I could do that configuration to get the capacity of the delta or delta max PLUS the 5kWh of the bank. Would have to figure out how to wire and connect that. Which brings me to my other thought- besides a plug n play solar generator -Will Prouse made a DIY "portable" on a hand truck that used a server rack battery and EG4 3kwh all in one inverter.

The original Delta Pros are absolute BEASTS. I have 2 sets of them and I have no plans on upgrading to the new Delta Pro 3 because the original Delta Pros are extremely durable and reliable. I run them everyday and I've never had a problem with them. A quick tip for resetting the LFP state of charge is to charge them to 100%, unplug the unit from the wall and solar charging cable, press and hold the power button and keep it pressed for 10 seconds after the unit turns off. Turn the unit back on for the real charge level.
The delta max and the delta 2 max, as well as both types of extra batteries are compatible with each other even though they have different chemistries. The electronics match them up just fine. They match up with each other after 1 charge cycle. For example if you have the delta max at 80% and attach the delta 2 max extra battery at 50%, the power will all come from the max until the extra battery reaches 50%, then it will load them both simultaneously. Same goes for charging. It will charge the lowest one until they match state of charge, then it splits the charge rate between them based on capacity. Pretty cool system. Not sure why they don't advertise it as working that way. Basically what I have found is all the products that have the EcoFlow proprietary XT connector will work fine with each other.
You can’t connect the Delta Max to the Delta 2 Max (or vise versa) as a spare battery; that’s really what’s he’s talking about. I have both units and confirm the incompatibility.
Haven’t watched your vids in a while but got this notification and watched. I am definitely in the market for another Ecoflow and appreciate the info and discount codes! 😁
Code worked for me!!! Thank you so much. Saved me $120 with your code! Got the delta 2 w/ 220w solar for $800 then $120 additional off thanks to your code. What a deal!! This is my first battery and solar panel so very excited to get this. Thanks again!! Still can’t get over the fact that you saved me that much. Truly grateful and subscribed as I’m starting to get into this
Thank you for the code! Helpful hint to a few, after putting in the code click the right arrow to the right of the code and not the continue button to get the code to be applied.
@@VP-pw4vz so when you click add promo code, it takes you to a new screen, scroll down and type in his code in all caps, then click on the arrow to the right, NOT the continue button. It should add it at that point. Hopefully that helps.
Thank you for this review and the promo code that you offered ended up taking the Delta 2 and the bifacial solar down to 732 which was absolutely amazing price and great for my first purchase of a power station. Thank you again.
I keep getting 'promotional code has expired' when I put in the code. Can you share what code you used just in case I'm putting in the wrong one! Thanks!

Own a Delta 2, wish I would have bought the Delta 2 MAX, it is the equivalent of owning one expansion battery for a Delta 2, and it has two ecoflow proprietary ports on the side. So you could run the AC and have expansion batteries.
@@NAN-kn5wl it is proprietary, port and cable they other ecoflow expansion batteries can connect to and the wave 2 AC unit. And the ecoflow generator, an ecoflow alternator charger uses that port. So by having only one of those. You can only have an expansion, battery or a optional additional product plugged into the Delta 2. Where the Delta II Max has two of those ports.
Picked up a Delta 2 for $499, wish I would have seen your video first with the coupon code. Runs the Philips freezer/fridge for 32 hours without solar. Really nice.
@@Mrcharlie509 I like it, the insulation is great. On a hot day with an internal car temperature of 115° and direct sunlight on half of the cooler the freezer maintained 9˚. You're right, the similarity is so close it appears the same manufacturer makes both the Wolfbox and Philips. The Wolfbox has a split lid for fridge/freezer and Bluetooth functionality while the Philips only has an ambidextrous top.
Bought the Delta 2 this afternoon and used the Amazon $200 gift card offer by applying for their Visa card so I went from $464 to $264 plus tax for the Delta 2.

Great review Hobo! The Best as always and especially with all the discounts is a very big help. EcoFlow products I have work great still since my very first Delta 1300.

Oddly enough I applied the code to a Delta2 this morning but had to get confirm on which card to use and Amazon page refreshed when I went to complete the purchase and now the code won't work.
Thanks for the code I’ve been wanting to pick up an EcoFlow for a while. But at that price I couldn’t delay any longer. I got it yesterday and the power went out that day. Talk about destiny.

Thanks for the reviews and discount codes, I just ordered a River pro 500 and a Delta 2 with the 220 watt panel for my first venture into power stations. Mainly for camping and to backup my gas generator for home use.
Looks like I could've saved a bit by waiting... I bought my EcoFlow Delta Pro with two bifacial solar panels for $2640 a couple months ago. Still not a bad deal, especially with the 30% tax credit

If you're doing any kind of permanent install, you really shouldn't use Ecoflow or similar portable power station. You're paying A LOT for that portability. Especially if you get into the larger sizes. The newer all in one inverter systems are like legos to wire up, and lifepo cells are soooo cheap now.
I've had the original River Pro for a couple of years and it works well. I don't really use it a lot but it's nice having it. Slowly want to build up capacity without breaking the bank. I saw the deal for the Delta 2 with 220W solar panel and was on the fence at $799/$759, but I just put in the code on Amazon and the out the door price ended up being only $683 today. Pulled the trigger on the Delta 2 with solar panel deal.
I’m in Houston we have no power. I have a Jackery and the river 2. I need more power. No real ETA or when power will be restored. I wish shipping could be rushed.
Philippine's power will not work with North American model! Be careful! Check your country to see if it's compatible with your Ecoflow first! There are different flavours of 240V. The Philippine's has mostly 220V, 50Hz and North American 240V, 60 Hz, and maybe neutral wire differences. Check to see if Ecoflow makes a model for your country's power system. In North America, we have 240V on three wires, popularly called "Split Phase" 60Hz (albeit technically incorrect; it's actually "Single Phase, Split-Phase"). In the UK, they mostly have 230V on two wires, called "Single Phase", with the Neutral handled differently, and it's 50 Hz. Residential Philippine's is 220V "Single Phase" with confusingly some city 120V and commercial Split-Phase, similar in some aspects to North America, but your frequency is 50HZ. Your solar panel would work, but your Ecoflow wall charging plug would only work if you plug it into a frequency and voltage convertor first, to reduce the Philippines wall receptacle giving 220V 50Hz to match the North American model Ecoflow plug which is expecting 120V 60Hz. Also, you'd need another frequency and voltage convertor for your 220V 50Hz Filipino (Filipina?) appliance plugged into the 240V Ecoflow receptacle. This is time-consuming and technical to describe. Better call Ecoflow.
Also your code doesn't work for Amazon Canada 😢. If ecoflow update it for Amazon Canada them I'm going to choose it over the bluetti !!! Right now 464 US = 635$ Canadian SOLD!! But unfortunately the price on sale on Amazon is 749$ can add 15% taxe and your at 861$ 😩 it sucks to be Canadian sometimes especially for deal on stuff. 😒 Thx and keep up the good work.🤙
Thumbs UP! Subscriber here - I just used your code and combined with the Eco Flow sale price, I got a great price on the D2 Max and Alt 800 charger bundle - THANK YOU!
Thank you very much I plan on building my solar project this year I want the ecoflow propane gas generator ,ecoflow smart generator 4000 any review on that coming soon?

The wave 2 couldn't keep my white car below 90f on an 80f day even on max mode with the dual hose setup and shades on all the windows. It only managed a 20f temp delta between the input and output. Pre-cooling the car with it's own AC didn't help either. Very disappointed.
I'm a little leary of "solar generators". A friend gave me one rated 280 watts with a matching 40 watt solar panel. On a very bright sunny Florida day, I tested the charging ability. I was shocked, it only charged 8 watts an hour vs 40 watts plugged into a wall outlet. It would of taken days to charge it by a solar panel. I know same size Jackery has the same problem. KNOW before you buy how long it will take to charge it with solar panels!!! Luv the channel
Just checked on Amazon, “Item can not be shipped to your location” I live in PR, wanted it for my folks (They live in an apartment where gas generators and solar panels are not allowed)😢

Thanks for the code Hobotech. Have watched your videos for years and really appreciate all you do to educate us. Your code saved me $200. Ordered a Delta 2 with 220w panels and a second D2 unit.
The prices dropped again today. Just picked up Delta 2 + extra battery for 817 with your extra discount. Excited for my first power station. I'll be using it in a truck camper and should be more than enough than I need
Just did the math and that's less than $0.40/kw. Was looking at cheaper brands but to have the ecosystem and app at this price is a deal. The app was important since it'll my first power station
the amount of energy i used wont change any time soon, i just bough the old ecoflow delta pro and it works perfect for all the need i have plus more, safe the money instead of getting the new ecoflow delta pro 3. I'll put that extra $1k towards my next ecoflow delta pro that i will definitely buy for a total of $2K of saving.
Also, Li Time batteries are a great price. $239. 12V 100AH, I am buying one for a total of 4 of these. I was going to build a 24v system, but for these prices I may now do a 48V system for easier solar charging. I an building a camper, I don't need a 48v system, but I may now make it a camper and a mobile power station. 😂

EcoFlow is still my favorite company to buy this power stations from however I got the wave 2 and it doesn’t cool off my van. Waste of money. Also didn’t know the wave2 extra battery only last 800 cycles.
I have a single wide mobile and run it on 2 DPUs, 4 batteries and the EF Smart Panel. Still grid tied, but I charge on my ridiculously huge panel array. I have two 2 phase loads. The water heater that barely kicks on because the incoming supply is solar heated and an electric stove. I found a 110 window unit that includes a DRY function and inverter compressor. I'm looking to doing a dedicated system for my well. Maybe an EG4?
Small problem on the Ecoflos, the 12VDC charging port is capped at 10 Amps. So if you want to use a 12VDC source, like a vehicle alternator or battery bank, you can only recharge at a 10A rate, requiring some 10 hours for a complete recharge. Considering how quickly you can recharge from an 120VAC source, that's totally unreasinable. Especially since a second Ecoflow battery (but oddly NOT another Ecoflow unit) can recharge it so much faster, using their proprietary cable.

The original Delta Pros are absolute BEASTS. I have 2 sets of them and I have no plans on upgrading to the new Delta Pro 3 because the original Delta Pros are extremely durable and reliable. I run them everyday and I've never had a problem with them.
A quick tip for resetting the LFP state of charge is to charge them to 100%, unplug the unit from the wall and solar charging cable, press and hold the power button and keep it pressed for 10 seconds after the unit turns off. Turn the unit back on for the real charge level.
You can know true SOC without discharging?
Thanks for the heads up. I can't wait to see what Bluetti's response is going to be. Thanks for all you do for us. Stay safe and God Bless!
Hobo now you'll have to do a video and review for Bluetti with discounts 😂
You're a prophet.
The delta max and the delta 2 max, as well as both types of extra batteries are compatible with each other even though they have different chemistries. The electronics match them up just fine. They match up with each other after 1 charge cycle. For example if you have the delta max at 80% and attach the delta 2 max extra battery at 50%, the power will all come from the max until the extra battery reaches 50%, then it will load them both simultaneously. Same goes for charging. It will charge the lowest one until they match state of charge, then it splits the charge rate between them based on capacity. Pretty cool system. Not sure why they don't advertise it as working that way. Basically what I have found is all the products that have the EcoFlow proprietary XT connector will work fine with each other.
You can’t connect the Delta Max to the Delta 2 Max (or vise versa) as a spare battery; that’s really what’s he’s talking about.
I have both units and confirm the incompatibility.
Haven’t watched your vids in a while but got this notification and watched. I am definitely in the market for another Ecoflow and appreciate the info and discount codes! 😁
Code worked for me!!! Thank you so much. Saved me $120 with your code! Got the delta 2 w/ 220w solar for $800 then $120 additional off thanks to your code. What a deal!! This is my first battery and solar panel so very excited to get this. Thanks again!! Still can’t get over the fact that you saved me that much. Truly grateful and subscribed as I’m starting to get into this
Great buy!

@@JoeAnshien My Delta 2 bought on July 17th hasn't arrived yet. They oversold, probably now bringing them from China.
Thank you for the code!
Helpful hint to a few, after putting in the code click the right arrow to the right of the code and not the continue button to get the code to be applied.
code is still not working for the delta2 max +400 panel. Any ideas?
@@VP-pw4vz so when you click add promo code, it takes you to a new screen, scroll down and type in his code in all caps, then click on the arrow to the right, NOT the continue button. It should add it at that point. Hopefully that helps.
Gotta love Odin. And saving money
Thank you for this review and the promo code that you offered ended up taking the Delta 2 and the bifacial solar down to 732 which was absolutely amazing price and great for my first purchase of a power station. Thank you again.
I’ll bite when the Delta 2 Max is sub $1000
I had it at 1066 before the code discount snafu.
The code just saved me another $70+/- on the Delta 2, that’s $70 off the already low prime day price. Thank you sir.
I keep getting 'promotional code has expired' when I put in the code. Can you share what code you used just in case I'm putting in the wrong one! Thanks!

Own a Delta 2, wish I would have bought the Delta 2 MAX, it is the equivalent of owning one expansion battery for a Delta 2, and it has two ecoflow proprietary ports on the side. So you could run the AC and have expansion batteries.
Can you explained about the port for the ac?
Delta 2 Max is a beast
@@NAN-kn5wl it is proprietary, port and cable they other ecoflow expansion batteries can connect to and the wave 2 AC unit. And the ecoflow generator, an ecoflow alternator charger uses that port. So by having only one of those. You can only have an expansion, battery or a optional additional product plugged into the Delta 2. Where the Delta II Max has two of those ports.
Best channel out there that touches on these topics.
Picked up a Delta 2 for $499, wish I would have seen your video first with the coupon code. Runs the Philips freezer/fridge for 32 hours without solar. Really nice.
Yep! My DELTA 2 is awesome!
How is the Philips freezer/fridge? I been keeping an eye on it, as it look very similar with wolfbox freezer/fridge
@@Mrcharlie509 I like it, the insulation is great. On a hot day with an internal car temperature of 115° and direct sunlight on half of the cooler the freezer maintained 9˚. You're right, the similarity is so close it appears the same manufacturer makes both the Wolfbox and Philips. The Wolfbox has a split lid for fridge/freezer and Bluetooth functionality while the Philips only has an ambidextrous top.
@@thegreenpickel thank you for the info, I think I will go with the Philips and delta 2 with solar panel.

Delta 2 is my everyday for van life. Though I would recommend going a little bigger with Delta Max. Thank you Hobo 🎈
If you're doing any kind of permanent install, you really shouldn't use Ecoflow or similar portable power station. You're paying A LOT for that portability. Especially if you get into the larger sizes. The newer all in one inverter systems are like legos to wire up, and lifepo cells are soooo cheap now.
I've had the original River Pro for a couple of years and it works well. I don't really use it a lot but it's nice having it. Slowly want to build up capacity without breaking the bank. I saw the deal for the Delta 2 with 220W solar panel and was on the fence at $799/$759, but I just put in the code on Amazon and the out the door price ended up being only $683 today. Pulled the trigger on the Delta 2 with solar panel deal.
Did yours ship yet?
@@redcatsassociate Not yet. Amazon showing 14-16 August.
I’m in Houston we have no power. I have a Jackery and the river 2. I need more power. No real ETA or when power will be restored. I wish shipping could be rushed.
Cool! Watching from the PHILIPPINES where everything is 240v.
Philippine's power will not work with North American model! Be careful! Check your country to see if it's compatible with your Ecoflow first! There are different flavours of 240V. The Philippine's has mostly 220V, 50Hz and North American 240V, 60 Hz, and maybe neutral wire differences. Check to see if Ecoflow makes a model for your country's power system.
In North America, we have 240V on three wires, popularly called "Split Phase" 60Hz (albeit technically incorrect; it's actually "Single Phase, Split-Phase").
In the UK, they mostly have 230V on two wires, called "Single Phase", with the Neutral handled differently, and it's 50 Hz.
Residential Philippine's is 220V "Single Phase" with confusingly some city 120V and commercial Split-Phase, similar in some aspects to North America, but your frequency is 50HZ. Your solar panel would work, but your Ecoflow wall charging plug would only work if you plug it into a frequency and voltage convertor first, to reduce the Philippines wall receptacle giving 220V 50Hz to match the North American model Ecoflow plug which is expecting 120V 60Hz. Also, you'd need another frequency and voltage convertor for your 220V 50Hz Filipino (Filipina?) appliance plugged into the 240V Ecoflow receptacle. This is time-consuming and technical to describe. Better call Ecoflow.
60 bucks off the Delta 2 with your code. Thanks and hopefully Odin gets some tasty treats from my contribution.
I got my delta 2 for 749. Best price seems to be at Christmas.
You didn't talk about the eco flow generator, dual fuel
Wow! Wish I had known about this back on Prime Day! Hope they do it again next year!
QUESTION: What is UPS Mode?
Also your code doesn't work for Amazon Canada 😢. If ecoflow update it for Amazon Canada them I'm going to choose it over the bluetti !!! Right now 464 US = 635$ Canadian SOLD!!

thanks for the real world feedback

Thanks for the demo and info, fantastic. Have a great day
I'm a little leary of "solar generators". A friend gave me one rated 280 watts with a matching 40 watt solar panel. On a very bright sunny Florida day, I tested the charging ability. I was shocked, it only charged 8 watts an hour vs 40 watts plugged into a wall outlet. It would of taken days to charge it by a solar panel. I know same size Jackery has the same problem.
KNOW before you buy how long it will take to charge it with solar panels!!! Luv the channel
Do u have a code for the Delta 2 max with 400w panels?
Just checked on Amazon, “Item can not be shipped to your location” I live in PR, wanted it for my folks (They live in an apartment where gas generators and solar panels are not allowed)😢
Dude - order ro a friend's address in the US, and either have someone bring it down by boat, or see if a shipping company would bring it.

I'll be using it in a truck camper and should be more than enough than I need
Just did the math and that's less than $0.40/kw.
Was looking at cheaper brands but to have the ecosystem and app at this price is a deal. The app was important since it'll my first power station
I had to put my STRONGER glasses on ! WOW !
the amount of energy i used wont change any time soon, i just bough the old ecoflow delta pro and it works perfect for all the need i have plus more, safe the money instead of getting the new ecoflow delta pro 3. I'll put that extra $1k towards my next ecoflow delta pro that i will definitely buy for a total of $2K of saving.
Also, Li Time batteries are a great price. $239. 12V 100AH, I am buying one for a total of 4 of these. I was going to build a 24v system, but for these prices I may now do a 48V system for easier solar charging. I an building a camper, I don't need a 48v system, but I may now make it a camper and a mobile power station. 😂

Small problem on the Ecoflos, the 12VDC charging port is capped at 10 Amps. So if you want to use a 12VDC source, like a vehicle alternator or battery bank, you can only recharge at a 10A rate, requiring some 10 hours for a complete recharge. Considering how quickly you can recharge from an 120VAC source, that's totally unreasinable. Especially since a second Ecoflow battery (but oddly NOT another Ecoflow unit) can recharge it so much faster, using their proprietary cable.
have you checked out the new 800 W alternator that Eco Flow has? They now recharge at a much higher rate
