EcoFlow DELTA 2 Portable Power Station with 1-3kWh Expandable Capacity, LFP Battery, Fast Charging, Use as a Solar Generator for Home Backup Power, Camping & RVsClimatePartner certified

We bought the EcoFlow Delta 2 bundle to enable us to go off grid in the motorhome, to use as backup power in the home should there be a power failure, to run the fridge freezer, microwave and kettle and to use to run power tools when necessary.The Ecoflow Delta 2 is an extremely well made, compact portable solar power generator weighing in at 12KG with a 3000 cycle and has the versatility of being able to be charged by the solar panels included in this bundle or by being plugged into the mains for a quick charge. The Delta 2 has the capability of expanding the power output by adding one or two extra batteries. A further 220w solar panel can also be added if wanted.There are multiple output ports, including 4 x 230-240v plug sockets, different types of USB ports as well a 12v cigarette lighter type socket which we used to run a 12v TV and an Amazon fire stick ran off a USB socket. We also charged mobile phones and iPads and ran a fan and lights in the hot weather. We use low wattage travel kettle and toaster in the motorhome which didn’t prove a problem.We went away for 4 days in the motorhome off grid for the first time using the Delta 2 power generator to provide all the power we needed while we were away. The Delta 2 performed brilliantly and we only used the solar panel, which is very easy to set up, to top the generator up to full capacity once which only took a couple of hours. The power generator provided more than enough power for what we needed for the 4 days we were off grid.Connecting the 220w solar panel to the Delta 2 was very easy, simply connecting the solar panel to the power generator with the cables provided. The solar panel is clipped to the opened carry bag which is used to stand the solar panel at an angle to catch the sun for charging.We were very impressed with the build quality, versatility, power output and ease of use of the compact Ecoflow Delta 2 and the 220w solar panel. All the necessary cables including a cigarette type socket cable for charging the unit in the car while driving are provided in the kit.We also bought the Ecoflow Delta 2 generator waterproof bag for extra protection for the unit which has a zippered pouch on the top to store the cables.Some people have complained that the Delta 2 is very noisy when the fan kicks in to cool the batteries, we did not find it any more noisy than the little desk fan we use in the motorhome, certainly nothing to complain about, it did not bother us while watching a movie nor did it disturb our sleep.Overall we are very impressed and pleased with our purchase and with the assistance provided by the Ecoflow team who answered various questions we asked. So impressed we have bought an extra Delta battery to increase our power capacity allowing us to go off grid for a lot longer without worrying about running out of power. Delivery was within a few days of purchase by 2 separate couriers who were both very helpful putting the boxes inside the door for me.

Review from an off-grid user based in the UK - power your CPAP using the sun!My primary use for this Portable Power Station was to power an NHS provided ResMed Air10 Autosense CPAP machine. After extensive research I was still unsure as to which power station to go for until I contacted EcoRiver for their recommendation on which one would meet my needs. They recommended this one - and being much more powerful and more expensive than the original one I was looking at I was initially a bit skeptical. However this machine is the minimum you need to power your ResMed Air Sense 10 Autoset on AC power (it is more efficient to power it using the 12V DC to DC converter, available from ResMed, but as far as I know this option means the humidifier function on the CPAP machine does not work as it needs more than 12V).Using this machine I could power my CPAP machine on AC power, just like at home, for two nights without recharging, using the humidifier function. However I used EcoRiver's excellent 400W solar panel (which I will review separately) to recharge it every day, meaning I had tons of extra power left over. This machine can easily power a toaster or microwave and can even power a powerful mains powered GHD hairdryer for a short time.DOMESTIC KETTLES NO - TRAVEL KETTLES AND LOTS OF OTHER THINGS YES!It would NOT be able to power a domestic voltage AC kettle as these use typically 3000W for a short time - when off grid in my view you're better off using gas to boil water rather than a domestic kettle - though it will easily power travel kettles, full domestic power AC toasters, lower wattage travel toasters, and all manner of other gadgets. It goes without saying that if you're planning to use lots of high wattage tools for a long time you will need an even bigger battery but for phones, tablets and laptops this machine more than has you covered. At times during a recent camping trip it was fast-charging four phones simultaneously.SILENT CHARGING FROM THE SUN!Before I bought this device we had to rely on a petrol powered 1800W generator to recharge things and use a TV in the caravan, which is loud enough to be pretty antisocial not to mention the fumes. Using this battery paired with a 400W EcoRiver solar panel provided free, silent power. Even on heavily overcast days with light rain, the panel was still providing 40w input power, which would recharge the battery over 6-8 hours from 50% full. In direct bright sunshine, the panel once recharged the battery from flat in two hours, which is an amazing amount of power.MAINS AC RECHARGING IN BAD WEATHER/WHEN MAINS POWER IS AVAILABLEThis battery can recharge off a normal mains AC outlet, drawing 1200w, in about 50 minutes, using the provided kettle-style lead. Fairly loud fans kick in to cool it during this which is reassuring. This was a great feature off-grid as during one period of intensely heavy rain and dense overcast lasting two days I ran the battery flat and was able to recharge it using the AC outlet of a petrol generator in less than an hour.This is an amazing piece of kit and the accompanying app for iPhone is very clear. It was great to be able to check the solar charging was working well and how much power was flowing in and being used simultaneously.It is worth every penny. Buy it.

I am so pleased with this. I got it for two reasons, the main reason being for camping but I'm also a bit of a prepper, so this is ideal for both.So it powers my huge camping fridge and I can charge it using my 400w portable solar panels. Without the solar panels it will power my fridge for about three days. It can power my home fridge freezer for about two days.I like the amount of power outlet options.The app is very useful and offers me full control of the powerstation and really accurate and clear insight into it input and outputs. I like how i can choose how it charges quicker but louder or slower but quiet. I like how it can be charged by solar or outlet whilst having power going out too. It tells you exactly the output and input watts. Also altering it's charge and discharge limit. The app has a very user friendly interface. However, it's not necessary because the control pad on the device is pretty good. You can also turn the beeps off and also the screen to turn off, which is ideal when camping.The build quality is extremely good. I like the handles, they're sturdy. It's heavyish but maneuverable. I would recommend getting the case for the extra protection though and there is a pocket on the top to store the leads.
