EcoFlow DELTA 1300 [Solar Powered Generator]

Nice size and weight. Much lighter than generators rated the same. Very well built and has the fast charge feature. Charges faster then units of the same size.

If you go in with eyes open, and in an appropriate use-case, the Delta is a terrific power station.

In DC mode it is silent, but whenever the AC mode is turned on the fans run (noise, which varies depending on load and can get noticeably loud). The DC-AC inverter isn't as efficient as some. Finally, if one forgets to turn off AC mode when not needed, there is about a 20w/hour drain.

Where the Delta really shines is in DC mode. I have a simple camping rig in my pickup's camper. The Delta silently powers a DC compressor fridge, charges my cell phone, tablet and other items as needed. Used this way, the Delta 1300 can run for 2+ days without needing a charge. It's also nice to have the powerful AC inverter to run just about any power tool, even a microwave, should the need arise (in which case noise isn't an issue).

A *HUGE* plus of the Delta is the incredibly fast charging time, whether on AC or via solar. While in Florida this winter I pulled out my Delta and plugged it into a garage's outlet (after asking permission, of course). In the 20 minutes it took to change the oil, the Delta charged nearly 40%! I have since purchased two semi-flexible 50W solar panels, which I pull out when stopped at destinations. These easily keep up with my energy demands. On the rare occasion there are multiple-days of cloudy weather, the Delta's relatively light weight and sturdy built-in handles make it easy to carry someplace and quickly top up using a wall plug.

The Delta is lightweight and compact for its capabilities, well made, and stylish. It is a superb DC power device that charges incredibly quickly. I ding it one star for the AC inverter inefficiency and noise, but, given the appropriate use case, this isn't a problem. Highly recommended!

This is a product to be jealous for. I popped it open an used it on my extension which had my TV and cable. I couldn't believe it, but yes I can because product like this is a life saver

I wish there was an app available too.

Delta is a monster and a life saver! Used to power our side by side full size fridge after a power outage. Our fridge is a higher end model but over 10+ years old (so not the most efficient). Powered it for 8 hours. But, the real value is the quick recharge. A little over an hour at a friends house (who had power) and back to 100%. This was critical as food can become to go bad after 4 hours in a fridge with no power. We were without power to it for a little under 2 hours. Plugged the Delta back in and ran it for another 4 hours until power was restored. Total power outage of 12 hours.Simply impressed.
