Design and features:
I live at the end of the power circuit, and any problems upstream will cause my home to lose power. I can’t begin to tell you the frustration of powerlessness, but I can see across the street and see my neighbors doing their activities carefree. In some cases, friendly neighbors allow the use of long extension cords to prevent the freezer from thawing, let the sewage pump run to prevent flooding in the basement, and even power the home heater to heat things before the long cold night lasts and help prevent The pipeline freezes.
Because I “went there and did that thing”, I was a bit obsessive about making a backup power plan. I have a generator, but it’s cumbersome to connect it up (especially frustrating if the power goes out for only a few hours), consumes a lot of fuel, the exhaust gas is toxic, noisy, and requires maintenance to continue operation. Transporting and storing gas is a pain, and to make matters worse, I hate the smell, bad! I have slowly moved away from fossil fuels and even have an electric driving lawn mower and hybrid car to reduce my gasoline use as much as possible. Now, only my snow blower and backup generator use gas. There is another huge benefit of not using gas-Delta Pro can be stored and used indoors, there is no exhaust, no risk of carbon monoxide poisoning, and no noise (except for cooling fans).
For several years, I have taken some expedient measures to solve the power outage problem-I use a USB battery pack to keep my phone and computer running, use an inverter with a bare car battery to run my stove, and various small options Keep my refrigerator cold and run the sewage pump to prevent my basement from being flooded. When necessary, I will start a generator to allow multiple things to happen at the same time. Of course, you can buy a large generator or a roof full of solar cells and backup batteries for household power, but these solutions are relatively expensive, require professional installation, and have their own maintenance problems.
Enter EcoFlow… When I discovered EcoFlow products on Kickstarter and took the opportunity to contact one of their products, I was deeply impressed.
EcoFlow Delta pro comes in a strong cardboard box with foam padding. Ruggedness is absolutely necessary, because Delta Pro is a nearly 100-pound beast.
I don’t want to drag Higglety-pigglety, but the design team of EcoFlow thoughtfully added a suitcase-like retractable handle, padded handles and sturdy wheels to make the movement easier.
Although solar panels are optional accessories, EcoFlow includes multiple charging cables for standard AC outlets, vehicle charging, and solar energy. As an electrical engineer, I am very impressed with the charging voltage and current range.
Charging this huge power station from the wall socket is amazingly fast! According to my ammeter, it peaks at 14.8 amps during charging-this is a full 1,800 watts and is powerful enough to be fully charged in 2 hours on a 120 volt outlet. Very impressive! But wait… there is more! …If the ampere capacity of your system is limited, the app allows custom charging levels, for example, the mobile home park limits the use of power outlets to 15 amperes, and the circuit needs to be shared with other gadgets.
What is also impressive is that Delta Pro can be charged with AC and DC power sources at the same time, and can output power while charging. This is a great advantage of my book! This means that the portable power station can take power from the car’s power socket or solar panel*, convert them to USB or AC power as needed, and output any excess power that is not used to be pumped back to the battery-use and charge at the same time .
You may ask, “Why is it important to charge and use at the same time?”
On the one hand, because the inverter power output on Delta Pro is very…very…clean and perfect sine wave, which can be transformed into a happy and healthy gadget. Sine wave power, AC (Alternating Current) is the power source used in your home. Motors and other loads are designed to work optimally with this type of power supply. Unfortunately, some inverters (power converters that convert direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC)) use “modified sine waves” to give normally smooth power supplies a “staircase” rather than a smooth wave. These “stairs” of power sources can cause speakers to hum and be hotter than normal operation, and can even cause sensitive electronic devices (such as computer power supplies) to malfunction. The design of EcoFlow ensures that this will not happen.
Second, while keeping the device running, charging and output at the same time reduce guesswork and cable swapping-after the connection is established, power automatically flows into and out of the Delta Pro system without having to fiddle with cables or plugs. If there is enough power to charge the Power Station, and the battery has enough capacity to power the inserted device, it can work normally.
To make the system more versatile, using an adapter, Delta Pro can be charged from electric car charging stations and gas smart generators*!
The input port is located at the “tail” end of Delta Pro.
The output on the Delta Pro is very rich and can power everything I can throw away-my refrigerator, refrigerator, fan, TV, and even the 1800 watt microwave oven is no problem. Even with a power of 1800 watts, Delta Pro can continuously power my microwave oven for two hours!
Convert it to smartphone data, Delta Pro should be able to fully charge my iPhone 12 Pro 250 times!
EcoFlo provides an interesting solution for devices that exceed 3600 watts without being overloaded-X-Boost reduces the output voltage and current to inductive loads (such as electric drills, hair dryers, and waffle irons) to allow the equipment to operate. Very smart!
To improve practicality, Delta Pro can be expanded to add two additional optional external batteries and a home connection kit*. This is particularly noteworthy because it not only increases the system capacity, but also allows the voltage to be increased to a two-phase power supply of 240 volts. This means that Delta Pro can power all the devices in your home, including your stove, clothes dryer or electric oven. I am not aware of any other inverter-based backup power system with this capability. Wow, EcoFlow, wow! !
Delta Pro’s bright multi-color display provides the percentage of available power, input and output power, an estimate of the remaining time of current current consumption, connected device status, indicators and warnings.
To make the experience even sweeter, EcoFlow’s app is great! Can monitor all functions of the portable power station, and can open and close ports.
More application options can configure almost everything on Delta Pro and update software.
The app even has a section that provides complete specifications. I like this!
*EcoFlow does not include additional smart batteries, smart generators, Delta Pro remotes, dual-voltage hubs, solar panels or EV X-Stream electric vehicle charging adapters for review, but this system is impressive and I am happy to review in the future they!
what do I like
- Lightning fast charging
- Lots of input and output options
- Modular and expandable
- portable
- outstanding performance!
What will i change
- No! This system is amazing! The engineers of EcoFlow considered everything! The system is crazy modular, extensible and shocking innovation!
Final thoughts
EcoFlow’s Delta Pro is one of the most innovative, efficient, and well-designed products I have had the honor to review. Its function is very powerful, the design and function are very good, and its scalability is amazing! Great, EcoFlow, great!
