Great video man! Finally someone with some sense who shows us a real life application with no BS. Literally had to watch 100 videos that only an electrician would understand. Thanks for making this!
Super video - actual real-world testing of the product. Thanks for the effort in making this! For me, it would have been interesting to hear the noise levels when charging and under the various loads... but still the best video I've seen on this in use.
well I appreciate some of the other channels giving me all of the numbers and features, this was the actual practical information that I needed to know. Thank you
I know you put a lot of time and effort into this video, much appreciated! Mine arrived 2 weeks ago but I've not had time to see what all it will run yet.
I think we all need to take into account that, with actual use the time will decrease. Given the fact that if the door is being opened and closed. The compressor will definitely be in use more. I was getting 500w surges, while the refrigerator was trying to keep cool, with my kids in and out of the fridge. So for best performance, open the doors as little as possble 😊
You’re exactly right! That’s why I wanted to run the test on my main fridge that gets opened and closed frequently so that we could see somewhat of a worse case scenario. You can actually see in the time lapse that during the night when the fridge wasn’t getting opened and closed, it pulled substantially less power than during the day. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I'm living in my RV and have the Pioneer 9k unit as well.. 2300' in S. Oregon. Wish I got the 12k.. lol.. but I have the Wifi module and can control it from anywhere with an internet connection.. Got it connected to my Alexa as well... So I tell her to turn it on, off and\or set the temp. But I'm here for the Eco flow's.. I have the Delta and the Delta 2 with 2 spare batteries. I use one of them almost daily for some 12v cooking. I have a nice solar system here as well.. but the wires to my inverter aren't big enough to run the mini split. Oh.. I se my Delta's to run my washer and dryer too. Got a couple of vids on my channel of all sorts of things.
Hey man that was awesome!! I appreciate all the time and effort you put into it!!! VERY helpful. I'm curious, how long do you think I could power a gaming laptop, or a desktop system with 3 monitors hooked up? Officially Subscriber Number 715 😁
Thanks for watching, commenting and subscribing! I’m happy to hear the video was helpful to you! At this time in all honesty, I’m not 100% sure how long it would power a gaming setup for. But it sounds like a good test I should run! I have a pretty decent gaming desktop set-up (use it mostly for video editing and only two monitors however) and of course hardware configurations will vary…but I’d say a subscription from you, plus the good idea is worth making another video testing a gaming desktop runtime on the Delta 2 Max. So keep an eye on your subscription feed in the next few weeks…we’ll get a video out testing that!
Buy a kill-o-watt meter and you can test the power consumption of just about anything you plug into it. From there you can calculate watt hours needed.
Thanks, I wanted to see how this handled motors, especially using more than a horsepower (approx 770 watts). I have a lift pump application for a sump that needs backup with low duty cycle of 15 seconds on, 20-30 minutes off. Your video really helped me decide on the Delta 2 Max, running in E.P.S. mode, keeping state of charge at 90%. Having 2 MPPT 500 watt inputs, even if power is out for days, the power station should easily keep up with even on a hundred watt-hours of solar energy delivered on a cloudy day.
That is amazing! Only 30% of the DM2 for the washer and dryer full cicle! You can go for a full 3 cicle on each and the dm2 will fully rechatge within 1 hour a half!! Wow!
I would love to do that! Just need EcoFlow to send me one! One of those bad boys is certainly out of my budget at this point…but I’ll try my best to get my hands on one and put it through the tests! Thanks for watching!
Totally glad you did this video with the Pioneer mini split air conditioner. I have a couple of delta pros with extra batteries and have been trying to figure out a system that will work when the power goes out here in the summer.. I want to run a 12,000 btu pioneer 110 volt unit directly to my Ecoflow without tying into my home panel. I have been trying to decide whether I need a disconnect switch or transfer panel. I just want to run a heavy duty power cord from the mini split into my house to the ac outlet and wasn't sure it could be done. Because most reviews I have read says that it has to be connected to a permanent dedicated breaker box per code. And not directly to a 110/120 wall outlet. The delta pro will be recharging with the 400 watt solar panels and Ecoflow dual fuel generator. Just wondering if this setup will work for power outages.
Thanks for watching and commenting! If you install a mini-split, it should be installed up to all current codes and requirements for wherever you live. However, as you saw in my video, so long as you get the 110 V model mini split, you can temporarily wire in an appropriately sized gauge extension cord that will plug directly into your power station and run the mini split no problem during a power outage.
I have a Delta and Delta 2 with spare battery. I can run my 9K pioneer mini split with no problem.. so I'm sure you could too. plug in some panels outside and wire a plug onto it and plug it in. Do not involve the house. This is totally separate from it. keep it simple. plug in the MS and the panels to it.. they don't pull that much power as you saw. It should run for a solid 5 hrs or more...
Great video! I will be getting this delivered soon and was curious to know exactly these questions, how long can it run various devices esp high wattage . Thank you!
Good testing and video, Thank You. One question. You said the refrigerator was normally used during the test. How much was it used, (approximate number of times each compartment opened and for how long over the test duration). This of course being the primary factor that determines how much the refer runs at full power. Thanks again. PS: I bought 2 of these recently because I've seen a lot of positive reviews and tests of them. It's a great unit.
It is a great unit! I would say we opened the fridge at least 6 times per meal plus 2 or 3 times in between…so maybe high 20’s to low 30 times? Thanks for watching!
Thank you! Yes, I did just add a plug to the end of the wire. Must make absolutely certain your mini-split is a 120V model and not 240v. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Is it possible to specify the max charging wattage in the app ? I ask as i would like to be able to limit the charging wattage when using a small inverter generator in order to leave enough headroom to power other devices simultaneously.
Yes you can! You can limit it all the way down to 200 watts and anything in between in the app. I limit mine down to 800 watts when recharging from my Honda EU2200i generator. Thanks for watching!
When you completed your refrigerator test the delta 2 max depleted to zero and turned off. When you plugged in the AC cord to charge it, did the unit start up by its self or did you turn it on? I am looking for a home emergency backup system. I am trying to decide between the new Delta 2 Max and the new Jackery 2000 plus. If I go on vacation and use the system in UPS mode for my refrigerator and freezer and the battery goes dead, does the unit turn back on when either solar or ac come back on? Thank you.
Thanks for watching and commenting! The unit does automatically power on and charge up after it dies and power is supplied via AC charging cable. What does not happen automatically is the AC inverter does not turn back on…however I believe they added a setting in the app where you can program the option for the AC inverter to automatically turn on once charging starts.
I want to power my mini split just like what you are doing but it only gives you maximum of 2 hours. Can you plug your solar panel power input and power the mini split at sametime to extend the AC duration? Also how is the unit holding up so far?
Absolutely you can connect solar to it and extend its runtime! I highly recommend it! I do that all the time to put my power station and solar to use and save some money on the power bill at the same time. Thanks for watching!
Can u do a test on a window 8000 BTU 110 ac unit? I saw the one with the fridge that lasted 27 hours, ca that generator do the same for an 8000 BTU? I like that idea, that can save me a lot of money. Thanks
Thanks for watching and commenting! At the moment, I don’t have a window A/C unit. However, you may have seen my test runners my 9,000 BTU 120 v mini split. In an hour and a half it took the Delta 2 Max down from 99% to 63% state of charge. So that means you could probably get 3-4 1/2 hours of runtime on that window unit.

Please do a beginners set up and start, as when first unboxed. I struggle with understanding how to set up and start any power station. I would be grateful if you would ? Thank you
Say what..? Not even a 5 yr old kid would struggle. Pull it out of the box. plug in the power cable to the wall and the other end into the power station.
Thats real test , im looking for a power station to run the fridge and heater during power outage, i was realy surprised how long it run the airco in heating mode. But they are expensive here 80.000,0 ₴ 1780 dollars😊
So when are you going to have your permanent solar connected to it and test it using it??? Use solar close to the 60 v as you can get max solar input... Sadly two '24v' solar panels will be 34 v each or 70 v in series open circuit...a no go...
Ohhhh man. I really wish I saw this comment before I bought it. I was hoping it’d run a 5000btu window unit until sunrise lol Now I’m thinking I should’ve just bought a gas generator
I thought wow thats amazing, until I noticed something odd about the speeded up fridge test, so I changed the play bk settings to 0.5. on the vid.Quite a few times it was showing your fridge was drawing zero power??? I'm in the UK & our homes have 240v throughtout as standard.The cam set up to show the delta pro, with the washer & dryer running, at the same time, should have been showing the DP & washer/dryer,but didn't.Why do I have an issue with that, well another vid was recommended on the same Item, which is UK based.A microwave on for 6 mins pulled more power & went from 100% to 76.As an Amazon affiliate v's someone who bought their delta 2 max themselves.I think I'd rather go with their real life reviews of how it might be useful for a few hours charge in a pinch
Most refrigerators run for a little while and then shut off once they reach their temperature and stay off until the temperature rises enough for them to turn back on and cool the fridge down more. So that’s what you saw in the video. Anyway, thanks for watching!
@@theresatrickforthat This is my first time watching this video. What he says is true. I have 3 Ecoflow Delta 2000 first generation units that I daisy chain for 6000+ watt capacity when I travel out of town as I experienced several outages throughout the year. I also use my fridge to cycle my units to zero every 3 or 4 months to maintain units healthy. My refrigerator is a 26.cu.ft. refrigerator that draws 115V at 7.2 amps peak, and averages around 120 to 140 watts when compressor runs. When it is defrosting it uses about 450 watts. My refrigerator runs for about 25 to 40 minutes than the compressor shuts off and my EcoFlow will show zero watt output for about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on time of year and temperatures.
It's rated for 6.5 amps at 120 volts. So that would make it rated for 780...but I think that's only while it's running and doing a defrost cycle in the freezer at the same time. When it's running normally as you can see in the video, it only pulls 100ish watts most of the time. Thanks for watching and commenting!

My refrigerator is a 26.cu.ft. refrigerator that draws 115V at 7.2 amps peak, and averages around 120 to 140 watts when compressor runs. When it is defrosting it uses about 450 watts. My refrigerator runs for about 25 to 40 minutes than the compressor shuts off and my EcoFlow will show zero watt output for about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on time of year and temperatures.
How many watts is the fridge?
It's rated for 6.5 amps at 120 volts. So that would make it rated for 780...but I think that's only while it's running and doing a defrost cycle in the freezer at the same time. When it's running normally as you can see in the video, it only pulls 100ish watts most of the time. Thanks for watching and commenting!
These machines are all about saving the food in your refrigerators.. . People..😮
😊
lol.. Yep.. but it takes all kind to make this world go 'round..
who cares - after 800 cycles it'll be knackered anyway
Delta 2 has lifepo batteries. It’s more like 3000 cycles now.
