I invested in a maxed out delta pro system with 2 delta pros, 2 remote screens, 4 batteries, 2 duel fuel generators, 6 400w solar panels, voltage doubler, smart home panel, and 8 420w hard panels mounted on my patio roof. I like the Ecoflow because it not permanently mounted. I can take a delt pro, 2 batteries, remote screen, smart gen, and 6 400w panels with us on our camping trips. It easily runs our 5th wheel including both AC’s.

Thanks for taking the time to break this down. The one question I can't seem to get answered is: In a grid down situation, can a Delta pro and 1600 watts of solar panels maintain 100% uptime for an average household using the minimums? While I understand the draw differences between electric and gas heating etc, it would be nice to see some use examples on this to determine if I can keep my house warm, Wifi up, devices charged and my food cold.
I don't think you're going to have an accurate answer to that unless you give all of the details. For instance, my home has 3200W of solar, but that is assuming a 'cool' summer day with full sun. If you live in the northern US, 1600W (assuming 8x200w panels for example) is going to be a lot less efficient than if you live in SoCal. I have a Delta Pro, and I got it for my RV, but if I had it with 1600W of solar, I could get through the spring/fall easily (I am in California), living in a 2100sqft house. In the winter, the sun is lower and cloudy days are frequent so I couldn't count on getting through weeks on end. In the summer, I use the A/C daily. Most house A/C units use anywhere from 3500-7500W! That would drain the Delta Pro in an hour, even using 1600W of solar. But in the spring and fall, when there is decent sunlight and I don't run the A/C, I could probably make 1600W work. If it was an emergency situation, and I was just running the heater (central Gas in my case), fridge, some lights, and wifi/tv, 1600w with the delta pro would be perfect. Hope that helps.
When you get something like this, you also need to consider extra batteries. Whether you get the ones designed for this or build a battery Bank that feeds into the Delta Pro.
Heating and cooling spaces take huge amounts of electrical power. So if you consolidated into a smaller space in your home, yes 1600 watts of panels could do it I'd say. Otherwise your home better be rather small to temp control on 3600 watt inverter and 1600 watts solar.
@@johnperry5960 according to Ecoflow that’s not an option. They specifically do NOT want it to work with any batteries other than what they sell. They easily could have made them compatible, but they wanted to make it only work with their own proprietary batteries. If you have a ton of skill and the right tools, you can mod it. However, then if it fails you just destroyed the warranty on a $3600 unit. That’s not really an attractive option in my opinion.
@@DadMoves I understand exactly what you're saying, they may not want it to work but it does. The unit doesn't care where it gets its power from, whether it's from an external battery that is lead acid, lifep04, the grid Etc. All you have to do is make up a cable that plugs into the charge port from your battery and it will charge. Do it all the time and have never had a problem. The unit doesn't care
Aloha!!! Many thanks for the awesome video!!! We have hurricane season here in Hawaii… I prep, however you address my power issue, fridge, chest freezer and other essentials… I can watch your vids over and over again for peace of mind… because… you never know when SHITF… thanks again…
Nice review, but please check your 20 watts for full size fridge. A full size fridge cycles into different power draws. Had you left it plugged in, you would have seen a 300-500 watt draw periodically each hour. But I do like the Delta Pro, just that this won't run a fridge for "10 days"... 👍
Agreed. Also I would recommend turning off any icemakers and don't use the ice dispenser on a fridge. Ours draws about 400watts just getting ice and about 60-90watts when the fridge is running. Only uses about 5 watts when idle.
Not a home backup power source. No where near enough power plus it is a battery, not a generator, meaning it doesn't create it's own power. Is it a cool device? Yes, but it is way too expensive to seriously consider for any reasonable use. This whole line is designed for RV/Van life, not home backup.
This was a really useful video. Thank you! However, I would recommend that if someone uses a manual 120 volt transfer switch (such as this one), that they hook into the 30 amp circuit on the DP, rather than one of the twenty amp circuits.
I thought the reason being yo charge the extra battery with the main unit was to keep the batterys equalised. You notice charging via ac . Diverts half the input to main unit to the xtra battery
As a grid down backup setup, can a EcoFlow dual fuel generator be permanently integrated to this system to recharge the Delta Pros during long outages? If so, does that work with or without the Smart Home Panel? Thanks for the great video!
What a wonderfully informative video. We here in California are looking for alternatives as gas is $5.60 gallon and our wonderful Governor Newsom will be banning sales of gas generators in 2028. I don't want to spend 10K on a Tesla power wall but this seems like a viable alternative for our small home with a 3.5 KW solar array on the roof. Quick question.... about 4-5 times per year the power goes out for a few hours to 2 days. This Ecoflow delta pro will be sitting mostly idle on a trickle charge to maintain 100 % charge and used those 4-5 times. I'm looking for a long-term solution so will this last for 20 years (2 decades) constantly charged? I would love to get rid of my gas generators for good.
Your videos are the best, learned a lot in the last couple of years watching you. Can I replace my sailboats house batteries, inverter, charger shunt etc basically all with this just one single plug and play system? I know that ecoflow has the bigger power wall / power kit solution now but wondering if I could use this more adorable delta flow pro to basically serve as my main and the only power source, replacing my existing batteries in the boat but then how would I take DC power out of this and run to my 12v fuse block to run my loads such as cabin lights, instruments, bilge pump,etc. considering all those loads and more such as a 12v fridge, bilge pumps, water pumps, chart plotter, wind and depth instruments etc, is the 30amp DC output this device have enough? I feel like the 30 amp DC output is well under powered. What do you think?
i have a delta max, the pro wasn't available when i bought or i would have. even then i think the inverter is under powered. delta max = 2400 watts 5000 surge, with xboost = 3400; delta pro = 3600 surge ? with extra battery ? i'd like to have 5000 watts available normal use with another 2000 for motor starting - surge. ecoflow's manual and webpage needs a lot of work. there is no mention whether you can hook together different products, i.e. delta pro to max. you can charge with the car cable & battery, but it doesn't say whether the car should be running or not. i have a small 3 phase motor that i would like to run...would need to be able to not only set the phase output of 2 delta pros or max, but also have the 3 phase panel for all three and one output cable from it. this would allow a person to run 3 phase without 3 phase service...you might need 3 extra batteries.
If I have a manual transfer switch used by my portable gas generator, can I just plug the delta pro into that switch? Also, can the Delta Pro be outside the home?
I bought EcoFlow balcony solar power plant with 3.600W Delta Pro storage, 800W inverter and 2 x 480W Bluesun (37.1V) solar panels. When the power plant is connected throw inverter to the network, can I connect the third panel, which is not part of the solar plant ,with a power of 480W (37.1V) directly in the XT60 input to the Delta Pro for extra charging?
I didn't see you cover the use of two delta pro's with the Double Voltage Hub. This is a demo no one is covering. A drop in replacement for a generator. I have a Reliance 310C 10 circuit manual transfer switch and inlet box already installed from previous generator use. Can the L14-30 plug on the Double Voltage Hub be plugged into the L14-30 inlet box of the manual transfer switch to run both 120v & 240v circuits?
RE ECOFLOW PRO: My understanding is if a smart panel is installed in your home it will power up should electricity in the main panel shut down. Is the reverse true also Should power come back up to the home with the smart panel shut off and the main panel will take over agin?
A lot of info to think about. First, can the additional electrical panel to connect to your existing home panel be allowed to be installed in California, or do utilities not allow it? For emergency backup, I was thinking of getting a Delta Pro to solely power my refrigerator, possibly two Delta Pros to switch between from day to day, allowing one Delta Pro alternately to be recharged each day by solar panels, for when there is a multi-day grid outage. Possibly also include use of a counter microwave. Also considering get one or two Delta Pros to operate an EcoFlow Wave A/C unit.
I average about 2000 kwh per month. If I purchased the Delta Pro and added sufficient batteries plus the Home Smart panel would that cover most of my needs?
Very nice review. I have a boat that requires 50 amp service. Do you have any suggestions regarding how to get 50 amps? Can I connect 2 Delta Pro units together with a reverse Y connector?
HI, I been watching video about this product , because i'm thinking to use it in a food truck, one of my main machine that i need to plug is ingle phase, 120v, 60Hz, 9 Amps Electrical Ratings (EU): Single phase, 220-240V, 50-60 Hz, 2 Amps, can i use it for this? plus some coolers
Thanks for the video. I am in the UK and currently there is no availability in terms of the smart control unit. I was interested to hear about the manual transfer switch and subject to UK wiring and installation regulations wondering if this might be a better bet for my circumstances. Ideally we are looking for a partial back-up if power should go down but also an option to charge a battery overnight when tariffs are cheaper or via our solar panels and then deploy that power from the battery when power is more expensive during the day and evening. Wondering might a manual transfer switch give me that capability? Arguably it’s a cheaper and easier option than having a Tesla power wall fitted.
One of these will run a 1500 watt heater for about 3 hours. 2 will run it 6-7 hours. The best option is to use a lower power heater 600-800 watts and it can handle that overnight.
I am wondering if this unit with additional unit added would it be able to handle a medical house hold unit for asthmatic person , the unit uses about 3500 watts of power to run oxygen
What is the maximum surge power available from two units connected together supplying 240V? The continuous power is listed at 7200 watts in this configuration, but no surge power is listed when two units are working together.
Idk why but i when i connect backup battery nothing happens. It never discharges, always stays at 99% and i there’s no icon on the screen that shows backup battery is connected.
If you get two of the ecopro with outlets. do they work together like the extension battery I Hate it not having the outlets. I have an ev and like having the 240 and If I hook up solar will it charge both. 3x400 If plugged in one unit. Then I have one 220 bifacal could I plug and charge the other unit. Leveling both. Got the delta max to. Or linking all three NO Coal or Gas I see more black outs I'm getting prepared. And.Or can I plug the 30 amps together and get and use the outlets like this 2x30=60 using a draw of just using 40 amps Tks
Is it possible to plug your electric car traction battery into the Ecoflow for extended time of use. The Kia has a 110 v outlet capability so I'm not talking about that cars that don't have that capability. Or is there an addapter that would enable that Kia capability for all cars.
Can LiFePO4 solar generators run 24/7 or be plugged in 24/7? I'm using a small 300w one to act as a UPS for my router and key lights. Also what is the average cost (California) to have an electrician install the wall unit so that I could plug in one of these into my house circuit?
You can find prices on all the units and kits here: shopsolarkits.com/collections/ecoflow-delta-pro-solar-kits?custom=Generator%20Models. - The price of the base unit itself is $3599
A great down situation means it's got power everything in my house and it's not actually that much but it is something like let's see what it is 240 volt 220 volt and a bunch of 120 volts hooked up to very few strings in the fuse box I have no furnace but my 120 volts are pretty much the downstairs most of it the upstairs all of it the downstairs includes my front porch my living room and my den there's another one to the bathroom actually I think there's two of them to the bathroom and three of them to the kitchen and two of them to the basement one which is to the basement is of 220 and the other one to the kitchen is a 240 volt that's pretty much all my power sources so yeah two of them should be able to hook up to my whole house where the battery Bank called the Delta pro I think I like that I think I might like that system I just don't know what it cost if it's too costly for me I guess I'll just have to find out. Maybe you would let me know what the cost for two of them in their batteries and how many batteries I can actually hook up to each unit.
Hello. I really want to set up my Delta Pro to get the max out if it's ability to grab 1600watts solar, but the maxes on volts and amps throws me off. Can anyone share their solar panel setup (including brand and model, for a noob), that they're using the get the most?
I would have bought an extra delta pro instead of the extra battery….you get a spare delta pro if the other breaks at the same time can be used as an extra battery.
Can I ask, as I'm seeing "11-150 V, 15 A" on the solar input specifications of the delta pro, does that mean I cannot plug in a panel with the following specs?: "300 W 12 / Isc: 20 A / Imp: 16.66 A"? Thank you for any info.
Thank you very much for the nice in-depth review/information question can this power a electric 240 V hot water heater? And I'm talking to maybe even three of them Daisy chain together? I'm wanting to power an off grid hot water heater and not sure of my options like the idea of these being portable and not doing fixed built-in batteries for the cabin. Is the hot water heater I'm hoping to run Rheem ProTerra 50 Gal
running a water pump and water heater would be the major advantage in a power outage.the abality to have hot running water would make this a good deal. ask an elactrician or check the max draw of the heater.
Looks like 1 Ecoflow Delta Pro and 1600 watts of DC solar would go a long way to cutting your electric bill with solar and a nighttime off peak electric plan plus some decent backup for grid down situations. At least keep your fridge from spoiling, wifi working and all your devices charged plus some fans for cooling or keep your gas furnace working in the winter. We're on a well pump on a 50 amp, 240v breaker. Sounds like a dual system might not have enough oomph (technical term) to keep the well working? Are you aware of a way to do it?
I solved a small part of that issue. Used cheap pex pipe and a rv water pump. I pull non potable water from 3x55g container and tapped into the toilet tank cold in. I used 2 t shutoffs to keep that circuit separate. My well is 240v and I only have 1 DP so that's all I can solve now. Gluck
Question, Costco is selling the Ecoflow Delta Max Power Station + Extra Battery Bundle for 2,899 and also have the Jackery 1200W Portable Solar Generator Kit, what would be the ideal package you would recommend to buy?
Yes, but to power both legs of the transfer switch, you would need to use an adapter cord that bonds both legs of the transfer switch plug together, since a single Delta Pro does not output 240v (hence without bonding, only half the circuits in a 240v transfer switch would be powered by a single DP.)
Did he say in his Con #3 that these Pros will not charge to their 3600 watts, but will only charge to 1600 watts if you're charging them with solar panels?! If so basically, these are not practical for an off-the-grid scenario using only solar panels (which this company sells).
Great review two questions one can you use the back up battery as a standalone battery if the main unit fails Second question can the Eco Flo delta pro be charge from any type of gas generator or do you have to buy their generator
I'm a bit disappointed by solar panels in general (monocrystalline). Usually you never reach the Watts they indicate. A 400W panel will probably do 320W at the most under ideal conditions. In cloudy weather it takes ages to charge up, a 400W panel could be running at 20 or 60W at the most. So frustrating....
I have 24 panels on my roof... Can I charge it with my panels without frying it? I am cross shopping between this and the Bluetti AC300 with the b300... I was checking that Bluetti sells a voltage step down module to be able to use your house solar panels... Do this offers something similar? Thanks
Hey man great video!! So I bought by the Delta Max and they mentioned you can’t connect it to a house breaker like you can with the pro as you mentioned. Is there a way to “rig” it in order to do so with the Max?
I invested in a maxed out delta pro system with 2 delta pros, 2 remote screens, 4 batteries, 2 duel fuel generators, 6 400w solar panels, voltage doubler, smart home panel, and 8 420w hard panels mounted on my patio roof. I like the Ecoflow because it not permanently mounted. I can take a delt pro, 2 batteries, remote screen, smart gen, and 6 400w panels with us on our camping trips. It easily runs our 5th wheel including both AC’s.
Finally someone who gave me an hour usage, I.e., it will run so many hours thank you, Alicia
He gave a usage but the fridge was not running the motor. So you have add some amps when running. And that yo are talking 15 to 20 hours.
Thank you for the very comprehensive explanation and demonstration. The Delta Pro is the system for me with solar panels

Agreed. Also I would recommend turning off any icemakers and don't use the ice dispenser on a fridge. Ours draws about 400watts just getting ice and about 60-90watts when the fridge is running. Only uses about 5 watts when idle.
The fridge has to be running the motor to see how long it would last.
We bought two of these in the nomad kit from you folks. They are awesome and your service is great.

Thanks for the review. I didn't expect the Delta Pro to be really that good. I am impressed by it.
Aside from the rising inflection at the end of every sentence, it's a good review! 👍
The Delta Pro seems to be well designed and perfect as a home backup power source. I will be considering getting the set for my home.
Not a home backup power source. No where near enough power plus it is a battery, not a generator, meaning it doesn't create it's own power.
Is it a cool device? Yes, but it is way too expensive to seriously consider for any reasonable use. This whole line is designed for RV/Van life, not home backup.

However, I would recommend that if someone uses a manual 120 volt transfer switch (such as this one), that they hook into the 30 amp circuit on the DP, rather than one of the twenty amp circuits.
I agree with you on how Ecoflow has made the Delta Pro very small in size compared to the awesome power that it has.
Just bought the pair. Mainly for the sump pump in my basement to keep it from flooding whenever the power goes
Really nicely done!! Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Delta pro is amazing
Great review. You just made me want one.
I think I do need this for my off grid cabin.
Very informative, thanks. Recently purchased the DP and will order the additional battery soon.
Sounds good Dan. Give us a shout if you need any help!
Fantastic video sir
Love the video, thank you. Question for you. How and can I plug this to my existing solar system?
Thank you for sharing this Amazing product I’m in Australia will look into it over here.

Thinking of these as a gas can for my ev
Great pros and cons… wish the battery extensions were more useful like the BlueYeti 300.
Pls can you provide a link for the transfer switch you used. Thank you - excellent video
Excellent video.
There are 30 amp plug adaptors that could fit in this. Would that let you skip the 2nd unit and smart hub to power your home's well?
With the right adapter, you may be able to feed 120V to each leg of your service panel but since they'd be in-phase so you couldn't run 240V devices.
i have a delta max, the pro wasn't available when i bought or i would have. even then i think the inverter is under powered. delta max = 2400 watts 5000 surge, with xboost = 3400; delta pro = 3600 surge ? with extra battery ? i'd like to have 5000 watts available normal use with another 2000 for motor starting - surge. ecoflow's manual and webpage needs a lot of work. there is no mention whether you can hook together different products, i.e. delta pro to max. you can charge with the car cable & battery, but it doesn't say whether the car should be running or not. i have a small 3 phase motor that i would like to run...would need to be able to not only set the phase output of 2 delta pros or max, but also have the 3 phase panel for all three and one output cable from it. this would allow a person to run 3 phase without 3 phase service...you might need 3 extra batteries.

You can't pull 3kW from an outlet in your house...?
Standard outlet in our country are 16*230=3680watts
Nice review
can it be recharged using a regular 3rd party power generator?
Very nice review. I have a boat that requires 50 amp service. Do you have any suggestions regarding how to get 50 amps? Can I connect 2 Delta Pro units together with a reverse Y connector?

Great Review. Is it possible to connect a bank of the Eco Flow Delta Pros into the Enphase IQ System Controller 2? (Also grid and PV connected)
This was a Great Video, It made me want to buy one, too bad I can't afford it right now :-(
Thanks for watching!
Just fyi... the company eco flow is selling newly refurbished units for $1947 on eBay. That's a huge saving
@@philc.9280 SEND A LINK, I SEE IT FOR MUCH HIGHER
@@Moes_Prep_and_Tech sorry my bad. That was the extra battery on sale for $1947.
Anyone know how to get the extra battery to show on the app?
Thanks for the video. I am in the UK and currently there is no availability in terms of the smart control unit. I was interested to hear about the manual transfer switch and subject to UK wiring and installation regulations wondering if this might be a better bet for my circumstances. Ideally we are looking for a partial back-up if power should go down but also an option to charge a battery overnight when tariffs are cheaper or via our solar panels and then deploy that power from the battery when power is more expensive during the day and evening. Wondering might a manual transfer switch give me that capability? Arguably it’s a cheaper and easier option than having a Tesla power wall fitted.
What about a 1500W regular size heater
I'm legitimately considering it but , would like to see how well it does with a heater
One of these will run a 1500 watt heater for about 3 hours. 2 will run it 6-7 hours. The best option is to use a lower power heater 600-800 watts and it can handle that overnight.
I am wondering if this unit with additional unit added would it be able to handle a medical house hold unit for asthmatic person , the unit uses about 3500 watts of power to run oxygen
Cons #2 and #3 are completely solved by having two Delta Pro units rather than one Delta Pro and an extra battery, right?
Well said
Would you buy two pros and not the expansion battery?? To be redundant as if system goes down then battery is worthless ...
What is the maximum surge power available from two units connected together supplying 240V? The continuous power is listed at 7200 watts in this configuration, but no surge power is listed when two units are working together.
Idk why but i when i connect backup battery nothing happens. It never discharges, always stays at 99% and i there’s no icon on the screen that shows backup battery is connected.
If you get two of the ecopro with outlets. do they work together like the extension battery I Hate it not having the outlets. I have an ev and like having the 240 and If I hook up solar will it charge both. 3x400 If plugged in one unit. Then I have one 220 bifacal could I plug and charge the other unit. Leveling both. Got the delta max to. Or linking all three NO Coal or Gas I see more black outs I'm getting prepared.
And.Or can I plug the 30 amps together and get and use the outlets like this 2x30=60 using a draw of just using 40 amps Tks
What about the solar panel charging?
What was the gauge of the cable you used to connect the transfer switch to the EDP?
Can you use the delta pro to charge your electric vehicle
Is your transfer switch a goal zero Yeti?
What do you think about the 3D solar panels, built like stair towers?
Never seen these before!
I have the river pro with one panel 110 watt....is it possible to charge the delta pro with this panel???
Is it possible to plug your electric car traction battery into the Ecoflow for extended time of use. The Kia has a 110 v outlet capability so I'm not talking about that cars that don't have that capability. Or is there an addapter that would enable that Kia capability for all cars.
Can LiFePO4 solar generators run 24/7 or be plugged in 24/7? I'm using a small 300w one to act as a UPS for my router and key lights. Also what is the average cost (California) to have an electrician install the wall unit so that I could plug in one of these into my house circuit?
Just curious would this be able to power a tankless water heater in an rv/travel trailer?
Can it stay charged up just using solar?
How much does an additional battery cost?
How does it compare to the bluetti ac 300?
Looks great but I’m afraid to ask the price.
You can find prices on all the units and kits here: shopsolarkits.com/collections/ecoflow-delta-pro-solar-kits?custom=Generator%20Models. - The price of the base unit itself is $3599
@@ShopSolarKits is this price for the us ? I am in Canada
The company Ecoflo is selling newly refurbished units for $1947 on eBay. That's a huge saving
can you set the phase offset? i.e. 180 degrees or 120 degrees for 3 phase? do they sell Y connectors so you can hook up 2 batteries to one delta pro?
A great down situation means it's got power everything in my house and it's not actually that much but it is something like let's see what it is 240 volt 220 volt and a bunch of 120 volts hooked up to very few strings in the fuse box I have no furnace but my 120 volts are pretty much the downstairs most of it the upstairs all of it the downstairs includes my front porch my living room and my den there's another one to the bathroom actually I think there's two of them to the bathroom and three of them to the kitchen and two of them to the basement one which is to the basement is of 220 and the other one to the kitchen is a 240 volt that's pretty much all my power sources so yeah two of them should be able to hook up to my whole house where the battery Bank called the Delta pro I think I like that I think I might like that system I just don't know what it cost if it's too costly for me I guess I'll just have to find out. Maybe you would let me know what the cost for two of them in their batteries and how many batteries I can actually hook up to each unit.
Hello. I really want to set up my Delta Pro to get the max out if it's ability to grab 1600watts solar, but the maxes on volts and amps throws me off. Can anyone share their solar panel setup (including brand and model, for a noob), that they're using the get the most?
I would have bought an extra delta pro instead of the extra battery….you get a spare delta pro if the other breaks at the same time can be used as an extra battery.
Can I plug in the delta pro with my 5500 sinewave gas generator
You could recharge your delta pro with a pure sine wave gas generator for sure!
Can I ask, as I'm seeing "11-150 V, 15 A" on the solar input specifications of the delta pro, does that mean I cannot plug in a panel with the following specs?: "300 W 12 / Isc: 20 A / Imp: 16.66 A"? Thank you for any info.
Thank you very much for the nice in-depth review/information question can this power a electric 240 V hot water heater? And I'm talking to maybe even three of them Daisy chain together? I'm wanting to power an off grid hot water heater and not sure of my options like the idea of these being portable and not doing fixed built-in batteries for the cabin. Is the hot water heater I'm hoping to run Rheem ProTerra 50 Gal
running a water pump and water heater would be the major advantage in a power outage.the abality to have hot running water would make this a good deal. ask an elactrician or check the max draw of the heater.
Looks like 1 Ecoflow Delta Pro and 1600 watts of DC solar would go a long way to cutting your electric bill with solar and a nighttime off peak electric plan plus some decent backup for grid down situations.
At least keep your fridge from spoiling, wifi working and all your devices charged plus some fans for cooling or keep your gas furnace working in the winter.
We're on a well pump on a 50 amp, 240v breaker. Sounds like a dual system might not have enough oomph (technical term) to keep the well working?
Are you aware of a way to do it?
I solved a small part of that issue. Used cheap pex pipe and a rv water pump. I pull non potable water from 3x55g container and tapped into the toilet tank cold in. I used 2 t shutoffs to keep that circuit separate. My well is 240v and I only have 1 DP so that's all I can solve now. Gluck
Question, Costco is selling the Ecoflow Delta Max Power Station + Extra Battery Bundle for 2,899 and also have the Jackery 1200W Portable Solar Generator Kit, what would be the ideal package you would recommend to buy?
The Delta has more cycles than the Jackery. Both are solid, but at this price the Jackery loses due to the shorter lifespan.
Can you hook up the 30amp socket on the front of the unit to a transfer switch similar to the one you show in your video?
Yes, but to power both legs of the transfer switch, you would need to use an adapter cord that bonds both legs of the transfer switch plug together, since a single Delta Pro does not output 240v (hence without bonding, only half the circuits in a 240v transfer switch would be powered by a single DP.)
How loud are these units?
They are quite
It’s a shame they could have an option to attach a wind turbine would have covered all bases then
Did he say in his Con #3 that these Pros will not charge to their 3600 watts, but will only charge to 1600 watts if you're charging them with solar panels?! If so basically, these are not practical for an off-the-grid scenario using only solar panels (which this company sells).
Great review two questions one can you use the back up battery as a standalone battery if the main unit fails Second question can the Eco Flo delta pro be charge from any type of gas generator or do you have to buy their generator
Can you use the generator while it’s being recharged by solar panels?
yes.
I'm a bit disappointed by solar panels in general (monocrystalline). Usually you never reach the Watts they indicate. A 400W panel will probably do 320W at the most under ideal conditions. In cloudy weather it takes ages to charge up, a 400W panel could be running at 20 or 60W at the most. So frustrating....
You're not wrong, it is weird how solar panel manufacturers rate their solar panels. But good points here.
Is the extra battery also LiFePO4 chemistry?
yes.
I have 24 panels on my roof... Can I charge it with my panels without frying it? I am cross shopping between this and the Bluetti AC300 with the b300... I was checking that Bluetti sells a voltage step down module to be able to use your house solar panels... Do this offers something similar? Thanks
The pros individually be charged by solar at 1600watts solar max. 150Volts 15Amps.
Hey man great video!! So I bought by the Delta Max and they mentioned you can’t connect it to a house breaker like you can with the pro as you mentioned. Is there a way to “rig” it in order to do so with the Max?
Would that transfer switch work with any device?
Knowing Ecoflow their equipment won’t work with anything from any other brand.
