Thanks Clint and til this day I still have my 2 and 2 extra batteries with the original smart home panel. Very dependable. Any questions let me know and I’ll always do my best buddy 👍🏼
I remember building a 32 foot. by 24 foot storage building with a concrete floor, framed like I wanted, and even bricked with the same brick that was on my house for $3100.00 back in 1982. I thought I was spending way to much back then, but I am sure glad I did it now.
I got mine today and YES, it's heavy. I have it charging right now. This is a great detailed video. I'm excited about expanding each year on my system.
Thanks for all of your videos and review! After watching this and your solar tests, fridge run time, smart panel review etc I decided to go with an Ecoflow system for my home backup and solar generating system. Appreciate the thorough reviews and seeing your pup helping out in all the videos!
I just received mine today and yes it is a beast. I opened the box and stood it on the wheel end and then slid it out of the box so that I didn't have to lift it. Great machine so far. Fairly identical in operation to the Delta 2 that I have so learning the operation was fairly simple.
Still watching, but as usual this is a top notch product review. One thing that I think EF could improve on is adding utility to those smart batteries. The competing product from Bluetti has expansion batteries that have DC power ports. That's a significant feature when you consider the cost of these devices. If the main Delta Pro unit goes down you end up with expansion paper weights. EF has made slight gains in the customer service department, but imagine dropping $$,$$$ on the full setup and have to send the main pro unit back for a warranty service. With Bluetti you can still use 12V devices (like an inverter), USB devices, etc. Maybe they'll add ports to future smart batteries.
I'm guessing in the future it's just a software change & maybe a new cord for it to be able to charge it by itself. Because if you need the main unite that means there isn't an inverter in it like the Bluetti extra batteries.
That is my issue right now and getting the main shipped back is a real problem. I am having trouble getting all the label required to ship this thing back . It comes with the black diamond with a nine on the box. Turns out you can not take it to your local fedex print and ship store they will refuse to ship it.
@@raymondpetersen3543 yeah. I had to return one of the Delta 1300 units. Ecoflow told me that I would have to schedule a pickup, but I was able to search for one of the FedEx locations that specializes in hazardous items and dropped it off there
What a beautiful BEAST the Delta Pro is 👍😃! I'm really surprised you didn't perform a refrigerator test on the Delta Pro (Just the unit itself - No extra battery connected). This is the one test I wanted to see the most, but the only one you didn't perform on the unit. 😭
A couple major advantages to smart batteries is - (1) Protect from overcharging. (2) If batteries are fully charged for too long the smart battery will slowly discharge the battery to a safe storage charge to help keep the battery healthy giving it a longer life span.

Great review but one thing when it was running over 3600w it wasn't using surge as that's not what that value is used for. You have xboost enabled in the settings allowing it to go over 3600w by reducing the voltage which isn't good for anything other than resistive loads so I recommend disabling it unless you absolutely need it.
Wow when I first open the video I jumped back when I saw three of those gigantic solar generators at one place. I know those things aren’t cheap and I don’t know if you bought them or they’re just demo units but I’ll get into the video I’m sure you’ll tell us. Anyway just wanted to say thanks for doing these videos that you go flow is one that I’ve been watching for quite a while. I know that their inverters are incredible allowing them to really spike so that you can start up appliances that other solar generators would not be able to start up. Keep up the good work thank you and the dog is cute by the way
you're enjoying it greatly. I got 2x Delta Pro and 1x extra battery to provide myself a 10800Wh backup capabilty for home blackouts and I enjoy the feeling that blackouts can't hurt me anymore. Your wife tolerates your out-of-control e-hobbying somehow - you must be grifting her somehow. I do also.
Good review, 33:50 the problem here is that the unit reduces the voltage in order to reach those watts, so from 120v it could go down to 105 or less which is very dangerous for the appliances if they use engine.
Yes this thing is massive. Even with wheels I don't see this being very portable for a lot of people. I would not want to carry this around for camping or tailgating or to a construction site. If I leave this in my basement when not needed it would not be ideal to carry it upstairs when needed. Seems like it needs a home where it stays in one place. Too heavy and too expensive but it is really nice.
Great video!! Would love to get the delta pro gotta save up a bit but definitely worth the power! Off topic if you’re related to motivational doc channel you may have a doppelgänger voice haha.
I like being able to see the individual watts at the DC and USB ports. I can glance at the values on my phone and know when they hit zero watts the charge is complete.
Thanks for all the great info!! I purchased an Ecoflow pro and a battery with 2 400 solar panels. Using two Eco pro deltas at 3.6 K and a battery what is the wattage that you can input? I heard that when using a double voltage plug, you cannot plug anything into the regular 110 outlet… You have to plug it into the double voltage plug… how does that work? With an Eco pro double voltage plug, and a battery all connected… When using solar on serial 400 panels, how does the charge work and what Eco pro do you insert it into? How does the dispersement work with this set up? If I have the same set up when I go to an EV station do I have to take all three of them and charge them?
No Costco ones aren't different, they use to be when the delta pro 1st launched. Now the same. Delta 2 max and Delta Pro have the same battery technology now.
Thank you Carlos it really all depends on what you're going to do if you have to Delta Pros you can get a double voltage Hub and then you have the ability to actually combined both Delta Pros and get 240 volt and 7200w. But again this will only work for 240v applications. I love the extra battery because it doubles the capacity to 7200Wh, take a look at this video and you'll see that I connected to Delta Pros using the double voltage Hub it's a nice little demo it was fun to make ua-cam.com/video/WUitxUq9gsM/v-deo.html
Your cons are understandable but it is what it is, new tech batterirs are heavy and longer cables have more loss so compared to others it's just how it is Love your videos.
I have new EF Delta Max 2 I was investigating if I could attach a delta Pro add on battery to my Delta Max 2. I think the Delta Max 2 add on is 2040 wats at $1399 and the Delta Pro at 3600 watts is $1899 - thanks
What is the comparison from winter and summer does this stand Up to Michigan winters I'm looking to replace or subsidize my small home on grid power is this possible and safe
This is for indoors it’s not made to stay outside in extreme cold / heat. This might be what you need besides the pro ua-cam.com/video/DsHOvAFnYak/v-deo.html
I just bought a Delta Pro 3600w unit. The main reason I bought it was to run my pellet stove during blackouts. My pellet stove Electrical Rating is 115 VAC, 60 Hz, Start 4.1 Amps, Run 1.1 Amps. I am concerned if the Delta Pro is ok to start and run the pellet stove. Worried that I could damage the Delta Pro on stove start up because of the amount of draw the stove produces. Don`t know much about electrical stuff. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.
The information you provided in general the Delta Pro will run the unit but you need to find out your startup wattage or your surge wattage from the manufacturer. I don't see it being an issue since the Delta Pro has a surge capability of 7,200 Watts But better to be safe than sorry I hope it goes well
Thanks for the video. I’m getting the delta in a couple days which will take 400 watts max solar power,, should I buy the 400watt panel from eco ? Thanks
I have a couple of questions. 1) I have a 10000 watt dual fuel generator and a transfer switch. My worry is long term power. With the Delta pre with a extra battery. Is it possible if necessary (Florida's rainy seasons) can I use my gas generator to charge the unit if solar issues like rain? This would save on fuel, I'm looking to only keep my 2 fridges and freezer and chest freezer running. 2)can I plug the Pro into my transfer switch. I hate extensions cords all over house. 3)the reason I. Interested in charging from generator is during day I won't be inside so AC is not an issue. But at night!! I have a portable 10000 btu AC that will cool our emergency room in about 20 minutes and has thermostat shutting off when it hits temp desired. 76 degrees heating? I just use an extra blanket lol Any help would be appreciated, just trying to back up my back ups. Seeing as fuel has become an issue.
If you use a gas generator it needs to be the inverter type that has a pure sine wave outlet that you can plug the delta pro into. Make sure it has a pure sine wave outlet. I’m sure you can use a transfer switch with the Delta pro but you probably wanna work with an electrician. I use a smart home panel ua-cam.com/video/DsHOvAFnYak/v-deo.html I’ve also tested the double voltage hub which might be an option for your electrician but you will need 2 delta pro ua-cam.com/video/WUitxUq9gsM/v-deo.html
I appreciate your video and have a question that I have not seen answered here or elsewhere. The Ecoflow Delta pro has a 30 amp output plug that they specify for rv. Can that plug be used on a manual transfer box, or do you have to use the 1500 dollar smart panel? Of course you can see the advantage of not having to use their over priced box. Thanks and any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks Ron I haven't tried that but check out the video below and I would also recommend emailing EcoFlow and see what they say, the video below is a double voltage Hub that they offer that cost much less and might be your solution but that requires two Delta Pro, support@ecoflow.com video is below ua-cam.com/video/WUitxUq9gsM/v-deo.html
This is a great question. I too have an existing twist lock 30amp generator input to my home but was disappointed to see it requires 2x delta pro (plus the accessory to combine them) to output 240v at 30amp into my existing setup
Hi Ron, Yes, that plug is how my manual transfer switch is connected to my Delta Pro. Electrician mounted the (included w/Reliance Transfer Switch) recepticle that’s wired to transfer switch next to my Delta Pro and used the heavy green cable to connect the two. I believe that switch came w/25’, but I ordered shorter 15’ from Amazon. Bert
Great review. Can someone please advise as I'm unsure on energy flow:- if you are using the 3.6kWh EcoFlow Delta Pro to power a 600w device, will it power it for 6 hours (3600w / 600w = 6)? Thank you.
Hi, Hope all is well? Unplugged Delta Pro & Smart extra battery last night to test how long they would run my stuff. After 16 hrs, they shut down. Upon plugging them back into wall outlet, they immediately started charging, but AC “Pass Thru” was inop. I’ve got all of the AC settings set to “Stay On”. Any idea what I’ve done wrong? I’d thought that this issue was fixed in a previous Firmware update? If I was out of town and we’d experienced an outage, none of my devices would have been powered afterwards. Thanx!
I believe all the 1200W solar “early release” models have been sold so the Costco units are same as other sources now. But please check specs or check with EF yourself.
Great detailed video. Can you do a video comparison of just using two DP, not for the 240v, just as an expandable battery. I'm torn between buying another DP to increase battery capacity, or just buying the extra battery. Thanks
If I were you, I'd get another Delta pro instead of the extra battery which is what I did. Because remember the extra battery is dead weight. You need a main unit to charge it. Having another pro doesn't have that flaw.
From the Ecoflow website it looks like you can get more power with the smart generators replacing one battery on each Pro unit. What are your thoughts on that? I already have a backup generator but am intrigued at balancing the power demand via two smaller generators vs two extra batteries. As someone shopping around I'm not sure if I should buy the double pro with 4 batteries or with 2 batteries and 2 smart generators.
I would like to know a little more… first in the event of a total power 5 hour outage would the pro last that long with a propane furnace, two French door fridges, I toaster oven and well pump operation. Please guesstimate the wattage. Even dirt is younger than me.
I am considering buying a combo Ecoflow Portable Air Conditioner and Delta Max Or Pro for my stealth minivan. I currently have Delta 1300. How long will it take to recharge fully on Delta Max? And Pro? Will Cargenerator work or cause problems when charging Max or Pro at 90AMPS?
Hi not sure how long the delta will take if it was plugged into the max or the pro AC outlet it’s based on the max charging rate, what wattage do you get when you plug it into an AC outlet? That’s what you should get. The max and pro both have DC input limits when charging off a car charging, none of them can handle 90amps, pro says it can handle Support 12V/24V battery, 8A
If connected to smart home panel and you have solar on the roof already can the Pro use the excess mains voltage from the solar into charging the pro instead of hooking up a couple of separate panels for the pro? IE can it be set in the app? as for me it’s difficult to mount any panels just for this purpose.
what would you think of this with its new transfer switch to be safe backup for my home on well water and active sump pump? 7200 W surge seems nice enough for it to work?
You can charge it using solar, while using appliances. The max solar input for one DP is 1600 watts. So, if your appliances are using more than that, it will use battery power.
@@TechMadeEzy perfect, this will be for Jamaica, by the sea, open space, can you detail what I will need for the power independence? please and thank you.
Question…… would like to use a unit like this ( Pro ) fora we’ll pump. It would be a 220 v and they say that I need 5500 cranking ability. Can this do that ?
Nice review! Two questions: (1) can you leave it plugged in and charging while using it to power things? (2) any chance you could try it with a large induction load? Like a table saw or washing machine?
No beat place at this time, it's $3,599 I did place links below for Amazon or EcoFlow in the description. Haven't seen sale prices yet, Costco did but they don't sell it as of now
To my knowledge, this will not work with rooftop solar, but you can actually connect solar to each delta pro up to 1600 W using panels. EcoFlow also released some rigid panels and you can probably put on your roof, but I’ve never done that myself.
It comes with the xt60 / Mc4 so just buy the length you need and I would go with 10 awg, I should have had Links in our video description also if you like. You can also get 8 awg to be safe if you are going to use up to 1600w of solar
You mean the smart home panel Michael? It's controlled by an app, here are a few short videos ua-cam.com/video/DsHOvAFnYak/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/DKG7dXAZqtM/v-deo.html
I'm trying to charge my Delta Pro in my semi truck with 3000W inverter while truck is running but every time I set charging over 200W it overload. Can you please tell me if there is any solution to charge faster? Thank you in advance!
Why are the cords so short that go from the solar panels to the units? The Pro weighs 100 lbs, to charge it up with solar I'd have to take the unit outside..100LBS, really? Is is possible to buy a compatible cord that is 25' or maybe 50'?
I have asked this question on a few videos of these and never got an answer. Hope you'll be able to answer this. 1st question can this be charged from a regular wall outlet (I'm in the US). 2nd question roughly how much would it cost cost me to fully charge the unit to full 3 times a day?
Dyno # 1 yes # 2 ask your electric company how much 3.6kwh cost you ( kilowatt hours ) that’s how you usually get billed in your electricity bill. Also if you grab some solar panels and stay within the voltage / amperage requirements that’s free charging from the sun ☀️
@@TechMadeEzy So the 3.6 kilowatt hours is the total amount to charge it 3 times a day or per charge? I ask the electric company to tell me how much that 3.6kwh cost?
Question: I'm new to power stations and have been using an inverter generator when my power goes out. I would love to have this to avoid gas and the noise from the gas generator. Can I connect this to the EcoFlow to charge it while it's being used to power the house? I realize the power station would only last a couple hours by itself. Would it still take a couple hours to charge this as it would be plugged into an AC outlet?
Yes, you can charge the DP with your generator. As to how long it would take to charge the DP, depends on the battery percentage and the incoming current to charge it. You can still power other things, while charging the DP. You just have to make sure you don't exceed the running watts of your generator.
@@Pk3_Garage Thanks for your quick reply. My inverter generator is 2000 watts. The Echoflow is more than that. Will it still work? I really don't want to buy another generator again.
The Ecoflow DP inverter is rated at 3600 running watts and up to 7200 surge watts. So, yes it has worked very well during my testing. The DP is just a power station, that stores power for later use. You can connect solar panels to it, up to 1600 watts. In a blackout situation, we will use both our generator and DP. The DP will be used as our primary power source. Our generator will be used, to recharge the DP, while suppling power to our entire house. If we need to run the AC, the generator will have to be used.
@@Pk3_Garage Hi and thanks again for your kind reply. Again I'm not an electrical engineer so you're saying it's okay to connect my 3000-watt inverter generator to this Ecoflow 3600-watt battery pack. If the pack is pretty low say 25% the generator would probably run on high to charge the pack then. Right?
Hi Joseph It does have the capability I’ve never done that test because I’ve never had access to an RV. I would recommend just emailing EcoFlow. They are pretty responsive and they can give you any precautions just in case. Support@ecoflow.com let me know how it goes.
Do you remember the shipping time from order to receiving your order; I placed my order 4 days ago without much information tracking # only says "Label Created "after 4 days... is this normal?
Does anyone have inside knowledge when the double voltage hub and smart home controller will be available? Or have a double voltage hub you want to sell? I don't see it in stock on ecoflow's website and customer support has no idea, sort of like the cybertruck.
Hi Bob, Put your notifications on for our channel, as items become available I will and have posted. I will include links in the post and update our videos on these products.
Hi, I live in Norway, so the Delta pro in the European version doesn’t have that 30A output in the front. It has 4 230v regular wall outlet. I have a small cabin and want to hook it up when I am there. The cabin is wired with about 7 or 8 wall sockets and all the wires are going to a panel. How can I hook up the delta pro to that to juice up all those wall outlets? Thanks 😊
They make a double voltage hub but that’s only if you’re running 240 V appliances I’m not sure if they make one for your country but you would need to probably get Electrician involved
You can connect it to a home using a transfer switch through the 30A connection. You can also purchase a smart home panel that’s what I have and works great Here is a video ua-cam.com/video/DsHOvAFnYak/v-deo.htmlsi=2ZyGIPHh7PIquDGG
The current unit Costco sells should be the same as the one you can get directly from EcoFlow. When EcoFlow launched the pro on Kickstarter that unit had some additional benefits back then.

I like being able to see the individual watts at the DC and USB ports. I can glance at the values on my phone and know when they hit zero watts the charge is complete.
Thanks for all the great info!! I purchased an Ecoflow pro and a battery with 2 400 solar panels. Using two Eco pro deltas at 3.6 K and a battery what is the wattage that you can input?
I heard that when using a double voltage plug, you cannot plug anything into the regular 110 outlet… You have to plug it into the double voltage plug… how does that work?
With an Eco pro double voltage plug, and a battery all connected… When using solar on serial 400 panels, how does the charge work and what Eco pro do you insert it into? How does the dispersement work with this set up?
If I have the same set up when I go to an EV station do I have to take all three of them and
charge them?
Are the COSTCO ones different in general? Am really considering one of these vs Delta 2 Max + extra D2 MAX smart batteries over time. Thoughts?
No Costco ones aren't different, they use to be when the delta pro 1st launched. Now the same.
Delta 2 max and Delta Pro have the same battery technology now.
Outstanding descriptive video. I’ll save it for my reference. What do you recommend? Two DP or 1DP plus 1 extra battery. Thanks
Thank you Carlos it really all depends on what you're going to do if you have to Delta Pros you can get a double voltage Hub and then you have the ability to actually combined both Delta Pros and get 240 volt and 7200w. But again this will only work for 240v applications.
I love the extra battery because it doubles the capacity to 7200Wh, take a look at this video and you'll see that I connected to Delta Pros using the double voltage Hub it's a nice little demo it was fun to make ua-cam.com/video/WUitxUq9gsM/v-deo.html
Puppy So Exited :D
The review is great! Are you going to do one for the Bluetti?
First thank you 👍🏻
I've done a couple of reviews on Bluetti, not their big Power stations though
Thanks from UK its good to know the uk / europe speck ev cable is fitted with the type 2 connector when its finally available
This would be great for truck drivers who want to save gas while sleeping. Might need to extend the battery life a little bit but it's a good start!!
Add solar also to recharge, also check out the delta max, see my Delta comparison video on our channel
I saw the Delta PRo listed by Time Magazine as one of the best inventions of 2021.
I included that in the beginning of the video as well
Your cons are understandable but it is what it is, new tech batterirs are heavy and longer cables have more loss so compared to others it's just how it is Love your videos.
Thanks Joel Happy Holidays
I have new EF Delta Max 2 I was investigating if I could attach a delta Pro add on battery to my Delta Max 2. I think the Delta Max 2 add on is 2040 wats at $1399 and the Delta Pro at 3600 watts is $1899 - thanks
Hi Not possible sorry, the connectors are different.
It's heavy too. I just received mine a copy of days ago.
Lifep04 batteries are heavy for sure but they have soo many more cycles
What is the comparison from winter and summer does this stand
Up to Michigan winters I'm looking to replace or subsidize my small home on grid power is this possible and safe
This is for indoors it’s not made to stay outside in extreme cold / heat. This might be what you need besides the pro

Great review give you a thumbs up
Thanks Joe
Excellent 👍
Thank you
I just bought a Delta Pro 3600w unit. The main reason I bought it was to run my pellet stove during blackouts. My pellet stove Electrical Rating is 115 VAC, 60 Hz, Start 4.1 Amps, Run 1.1 Amps. I am concerned if the Delta Pro is ok to start and run the pellet stove. Worried that I could damage the Delta Pro on stove start up because of the amount of draw the stove produces. Don`t know much about electrical stuff. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.
The information you provided in general the Delta Pro will run the unit but you need to find out your startup wattage or your surge wattage from the manufacturer. I don't see it being an issue since the Delta Pro has a surge capability of 7,200 Watts
But better to be safe than sorry I hope it goes well
Thanks for the reply, I will check it out. @@TechMadeEzy
Let me know how it goes
Ok but can this power and run washer and dryer? Want this for off grid use
120v electric not 240v otherwise you will have to get this for 240v for off grid use

By any chance do you remember when ecoflow started there black Friday day last year or do you know when there black friday going to starts?
I believe it starts early this year November 11th I believe
45:14 I had no idea that you can speed the charging process by combining different methods. Very interesting. Did I get that right?
Yes
Thanks for the video. I’m getting the delta in a couple days which will take 400 watts max solar power,, should I buy the 400watt panel from eco ? Thanks
That's up to you Jim, or you can get 200w panels also, thanks for watching
I have a couple of questions.
1) I have a 10000 watt dual fuel generator and a transfer switch. My worry is long term power. With the Delta pre with a extra battery. Is it possible if necessary (Florida's rainy seasons) can I use my gas generator to charge the unit if solar issues like rain? This would save on fuel, I'm looking to only keep my 2 fridges and freezer and chest freezer running.
2)can I plug the Pro into my transfer switch. I hate extensions cords all over house.
3)the reason I. Interested in charging from generator is during day I won't be inside so AC is not an issue. But at night!! I have a portable 10000 btu AC that will cool our emergency room in about 20 minutes and has thermostat shutting off when it hits temp desired. 76 degrees heating? I just use an extra blanket lol
Any help would be appreciated, just trying to back up my back ups. Seeing as fuel has become an issue.
If you use a gas generator it needs to be the inverter type that has a pure sine wave outlet that you can plug the delta pro into. Make sure it has a pure sine wave outlet. I’m sure you can use a transfer switch with the Delta pro but you probably wanna work with an electrician. I use a smart home panel ua-cam.com/video/DsHOvAFnYak/v-deo.html I’ve also tested the double voltage hub which might be an option for your electrician but you will need 2 delta pro ua-cam.com/video/WUitxUq9gsM/v-deo.html
Ohh yeah!!!1sttt. I been enjoying mine since I got them!!!
I appreciate your video and have a question that I have not seen answered here or elsewhere. The Ecoflow Delta pro has a 30 amp output plug that they specify for rv. Can that plug be used on a manual transfer box, or do you have to use the 1500 dollar smart panel? Of course you can see the advantage of not having to use their over priced box. Thanks and any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks Ron
I haven't tried that but check out the video below and I would also recommend emailing EcoFlow and see what they say, the video below is a double voltage Hub that they offer that cost much less and might be your solution but that requires two Delta Pro, support@ecoflow.com video is below
ua-cam.com/video/WUitxUq9gsM/v-deo.html
This is a great question. I too have an existing twist lock 30amp generator input to my home but was disappointed to see it requires 2x delta pro (plus the accessory to combine them) to output 240v at 30amp into my existing setup
Hi Ron, Yes, that plug is how my manual transfer switch is connected to my Delta Pro. Electrician mounted the (included w/Reliance Transfer Switch) recepticle that’s wired to transfer switch next to my Delta Pro and used the heavy green cable to connect the two. I believe that switch came w/25’, but I ordered shorter 15’ from Amazon. Bert
By the way, I’m only powering 125v circuits.
Great review. Can someone please advise as I'm unsure on energy flow:- if you are using the 3.6kWh EcoFlow Delta Pro to power a 600w device, will it power it for 6 hours (3600w / 600w = 6)? Thank you.
Alan you are posting everywhere 😎
See my response on your other post
Hi, Hope all is well? Unplugged Delta Pro & Smart extra battery last night to test how long they would run my stuff. After 16 hrs, they shut down. Upon plugging them back into wall outlet, they immediately started charging, but AC “Pass Thru” was inop. I’ve got all of the AC settings set to “Stay On”. Any idea what I’ve done wrong? I’d thought that this issue was fixed in a previous Firmware update? If I was out of town and we’d experienced an outage, none of my devices would have been powered afterwards. Thanx!
I’d recommend contacting EcoFlow support@ecoflow.com
@@TechMadeEzy Thanx, I have done so. In the mean time, since I’m connected by Wi-Fi, if I’m NOT at home, could I turn the ASC switch on thru the App?
@user-ug7yy4mn8k not sure haven’t tried that one
I believe all the 1200W solar “early release” models have been sold so the Costco units are same as other sources now. But please check specs or check with EF yourself.
Great detailed video. Can you do a video comparison of just using two DP, not for the 240v, just as an expandable battery. I'm torn between buying another DP to increase battery capacity, or just buying the extra battery. Thanks
You can't connect 2 together and use them for normal appliances. The double voltage hub connects them for 240v appliances now 110/120
If I were you, I'd get another Delta pro instead of the extra battery which is what I did. Because remember the extra battery is dead weight. You need a main unit to charge it. Having another pro doesn't have that flaw.
You can also charge the extra battery using the smart generator
Missing the 30 amp outlet in your spec summary page.
From the Ecoflow website it looks like you can get more power with the smart generators replacing one battery on each Pro unit. What are your thoughts on that? I already have a backup generator but am intrigued at balancing the power demand via two smaller generators vs two extra batteries. As someone shopping around I'm not sure if I should buy the double pro with 4 batteries or with 2 batteries and 2 smart generators.
Start off with 2 DP and 2 Batteries for now, then make the decision after
Great video!
Can you test in on a reverse cycle airconditioner, run it on cool air and heating?
Thank you, your best bet is to find out what the wattage requirement is to see if it can run it.
Nice Review!! New subscriber
Welcome and thank you
I would like to know a little more… first in the event of a total power 5 hour outage would the pro last that long with a propane furnace, two French door fridges, I toaster oven and well pump operation. Please guesstimate the wattage. Even dirt is younger than me.
I am considering buying a combo Ecoflow Portable Air Conditioner and Delta Max Or Pro for my stealth minivan.
I currently have Delta 1300. How long will it take to recharge fully on Delta Max? And Pro?
Will Cargenerator work or cause problems when charging Max or Pro at 90AMPS?
Hi not sure how long the delta will take if it was plugged into the max or the pro AC outlet it’s based on the max charging rate, what wattage do you get when you plug it into an AC outlet? That’s what you should get.
The max and pro both have DC input limits when charging off a car charging, none of them can handle 90amps, pro says it can handle
Support 12V/24V battery, 8A
If connected to smart home panel and you have solar on the roof already can the Pro use the excess mains voltage from the solar into charging the pro instead of hooking up a couple of separate panels for the pro? IE can it be set in the app? as for me it’s difficult to mount any panels just for this purpose.
I'd ask EcoFlow that but I will tell you the pro has a limit of 1600w 150v and 15a. Here is their email support@ecoflow.com
what would you think of this with its new transfer switch to be safe backup for my home on well water and active sump pump? 7200 W surge seems nice enough for it to work?
You're probably going to need two Delta pros and a double voltage hub and probably special adapters depending on how they connect
Excellent review as always
Thank you
anyway to solar charge these things and run appliances at same time??
You can charge it using solar, while using appliances. The max solar input for one DP is 1600 watts. So, if your appliances are using more than that, it will use battery power.
Best video I’ve seen !!!!!!
Thank you so much Carey
Can power independence run a household, fridge, ligts, washing machine etc for off grid living?
Yes with the right setup and plenty of solar
@@TechMadeEzy perfect, this will be for Jamaica, by the sea, open space, can you detail what I will need for the power independence? please and thank you.
Start with this video it will give you a good idea

Question…… would like to use a unit like this ( Pro ) fora we’ll pump. It would be a 220 v and they say that I need 5500 cranking ability. Can this do that ?
Email EcoFlow
support@ecoflow.com
Can you use it while it's charging via outlet or solar?
Yes that’s called pass-through charging
Nice review! Two questions: (1) can you leave it plugged in and charging while using it to power things? (2) any chance you could try it with a large induction load? Like a table saw or washing machine?
Hi Peter thank you
Yes to # 1 that’s called pass thru charging
# 2 we will think about that
Best place to buy it from?
No beat place at this time, it's $3,599 I did place links below for Amazon or EcoFlow in the description. Haven't seen sale prices yet, Costco did but they don't sell it as of now
I think if you have 2 Delta Pros - you can use gas generator to charge both right? as INPUT to both delta pros at 240V input
can i then power my grid tied solar set up if grid goes down?
To my knowledge, this will not work with rooftop solar, but you can actually connect solar to each delta pro up to 1600 W using panels. EcoFlow also released some rigid panels and you can probably put on your roof, but I’ve never done that myself.
@@TechMadeEzy cool ty
what cable(s) do I need to hook up 2 solar panels to the Ecoflow pro??
It comes with the xt60 / Mc4 so just buy the length you need and I would go with 10 awg, I should have had Links in our video description also if you like. You can also get 8 awg to be safe if you are going to use up to 1600w of solar
Nice review! ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Thanks Dan
does the ecoflow control panel offer additional functionallity to the app?

What about the welding, how did that work out ?
Hi Cam it Did fine on that test
@@TechMadeEzy yea think I going to get one to run small workshop , they are mean
You can always buy an add on battery if you need to also which is nice
I'm trying to charge my Delta Pro in my semi truck
with 3000W inverter while truck is running but every
time I set charging over 200W it overload. Can you
please tell me if there is any solution to charge faster?
Thank you in advance!
Not in a truck off the inverter that I know of, sorry.
@@TechMadeEzy thank you
Why are the cords so short that go from the solar panels to the units? The Pro weighs 100 lbs, to charge it up with solar I'd have to take the unit outside..100LBS, really? Is is possible to buy a compatible cord that is 25' or maybe 50'?
Yes, always use a longer solar cable, I'd recommend 10awg, we should have some links in the description for solar cables
When you were going over the outlet specs you forgot the 30 amp rv.
Hi..can you run the dryer on the pro
240v dryer? Yes with 2 delta pro and a double voltage Hub see this video ua-cam.com/video/WUitxUq9gsM/v-deo.html
I have asked this question on a few videos of these and never got an answer. Hope you'll be able to answer this. 1st question can this be charged from a regular wall outlet (I'm in the US). 2nd question roughly how much would it cost cost me to fully charge the unit to full 3 times a day?
Dyno
# 1 yes
# 2 ask your electric company how much
3.6kwh cost you
( kilowatt hours ) that’s how you usually get billed in your electricity bill. Also if you grab some solar panels and stay within the voltage / amperage requirements that’s free charging from the sun ☀️
@@TechMadeEzy could you gimme an idea what it would cost you in your area to charge it 3 times in day?
No sorry
@@TechMadeEzy So the 3.6 kilowatt hours is the total amount to charge it 3 times a day or per charge? I ask the electric company to tell me how much that 3.6kwh cost?
3 times would be 10.8kwh
Dude my real world stress test would have been my instant pot, induction cooktop and, toaster oven.
When you charge to 100% what percentage of storage is left after 1 month ? Want to understand the storage retention ability.
Haven’t tested that
It loses about 1% every 3-5 days :)
Question: I'm new to power stations and have been using an inverter generator when my power goes out. I would love to have this to avoid gas and the noise from the gas generator. Can I connect this to the EcoFlow to charge it while it's being used to power the house? I realize the power station would only last a couple hours by itself. Would it still take a couple hours to charge this as it would be plugged into an AC outlet?
Yes, you can charge the DP with your generator. As to how long it would take to charge the DP, depends on the battery percentage and the incoming current to charge it. You can still power other things, while charging the DP. You just have to make sure you don't exceed the running watts of your generator.
@@Pk3_Garage Thanks for your quick reply. My inverter generator is 2000 watts. The Echoflow is more than that. Will it still work? I really don't want to buy another generator again.
The Ecoflow DP inverter is rated at 3600 running watts and up to 7200 surge watts.
So, yes it has worked very well during my testing. The DP is just a power station, that stores power for later use. You can connect solar panels to it, up to 1600 watts.
In a blackout situation, we will use both our generator and DP. The DP will be used as our primary power source. Our generator will be used, to recharge the DP, while suppling power to our entire house. If we need to run the AC, the generator will have to be used.
@@Pk3_Garage Hi and thanks again for your kind reply. Again I'm not an electrical engineer so you're saying it's okay to connect my 3000-watt inverter generator to this Ecoflow 3600-watt battery pack. If the pack is pretty low say 25% the generator would probably run on high to charge the pack then. Right?
You can and even better use solar panels, it can handle a good amount of wattage, see the specs in the video for more info. Thanks for watching
Can I connect this unit to my 30AM RV without any issue?
Hi Joseph
It does have the capability I’ve never done that test because I’ve never had access to an RV. I would recommend just emailing EcoFlow. They are pretty responsive and they can give you any precautions just in case. Support@ecoflow.com let me know how it goes.
Do you remember the shipping time from order to receiving your order; I placed my order 4 days ago without much information tracking # only says "Label Created "after 4 days... is this normal?
Did you order from the company or do you order from another seller
I ordered directly from their website..
It was the ECOFLOW website..
@ibjuscoolin I would email them I find that to be the best option just give them at least a day to reply to you support@ecoflow.com

Hi, I live in Norway, so the Delta pro in the European version doesn’t have that 30A output in the front. It has 4 230v regular wall outlet. I have a small cabin and want to hook it up when I am there. The cabin is wired with about 7 or 8 wall sockets and all the wires are going to a panel. How can I hook up the delta pro to that to juice up all those wall outlets? Thanks 😊
Is the ECOFlow smart home panel available to purchase?
@@TechMadeEzy not yet, but soon. Is there any other way?
@@TechMadeEzy I tried to send a link to there website but didn’t work.
They make a double voltage hub but that’s only if you’re running 240 V appliances I’m not sure if they make one for your country but you would need to probably get Electrician involved
@@TechMadeEzy thanks, i am definitely getting an electrician involved 😊 everything here 240v
Will this power a house about 28 amps on the load?
You can connect it to a home using a transfer switch through the 30A connection. You can also purchase a smart home panel that’s what I have and works great
Here is a video

I don’t see why not if it has an AC outlet but ask Ecoflow to be sure support@ecoflow.com
What makes the Costco units specs different?
The current unit Costco sells should be the same as the one you can get directly from EcoFlow. When EcoFlow launched the pro on Kickstarter that unit had some additional benefits back then.
Costco no longer carries Ecoflow; they now sell Geneverse producs. Most likely because their customer's service is subpar or not to Costco standards.
I’ve seen Costco bring back ecoflow from time to time depending on sales and promotions I don’t think they consistently sell the product
