Wave 2 manual: cdn.solarpowersupply.eu/files/(EN)%20Manual%20Ecoflow%20wave2-20230419.pdf The only theory I can come up with is the hose is a tight L behind the curtain and it throttles it which could explain the lower Wattage with the hose connected?

There are cold weather heat pumps that can operate well under freezing temperatures but idk what they do to make them capable of that.

Heatpumps draw heat energy from the environment and this process uses energy not the conversion of electrical energy to heat. So its actually quite realistic to get about 3 times the energy you put in out in heat, because all the pump does is "concentrate" the heat in a smaller volume of air so to speak. To manage that however the thing needed to draw that heat out of the outside air and put it into some air inside and afterwards geting the air back out again. That means you need 2! hoses to the outside, intake and outtake not just one. You either let the thing draw heat from the inside or blew the cooled air to put outside right back in. For having next to zero effect...

The reason for it using less energy with the rear inatke out the window, is down to the lower temperatures decreasing the suction pressure of the compressor which means it requires less power to "compress". As soon as the inatke is room temperature, the pressures starts to increase, it becomes harder to compress and will increase power consumption👍

@averyalexander23032 ай бұрын
That's exactly what I was going to say in addition to the higher discharge pressure with a warmer inlet air temperature. AC units behave the same way drawing more power as either the inside or the outside air temperature increases for the same reason. Inverter driven systems are a little different because they may run the compressor at less than full speed in heat mode when the outside temperature is higher and then run the compressor faster as the outside temperature drops to maintain (or at least try to maintain) the setpoint.

Well, inverter systems are more benefical energy wise as well. While being able to maintain a tighter differential, they dont have to kick in and out on full power all the time. They'll just hum away using next to no power. I did find the companys heat output calculations strange though, but thinking about it a little more. In the video, the heat energy thats being added to the room is also being used as the inlet air to boil off refrigerant, and then exhaust outside. So i guess the figures would match up in perfect conditions🤔

Brings in fresh air, exchanges it across the exit air and is heated before being fan forced and directed to the floor. I hope to make a prototype soon and begin testing. 👍 I also have a cool idea I’m way too busy to even look at where you take a small iron stove and make it so you can burn multiple fuels. Attachments to burn propane, diesel, oil, wood, pellets etc. all you gotta do is let it cool down and change the attached pieces.

So...he didn't read the directions. NO heating system is going to be able to heat 20 degree air to 70 degrees in one go. The whole point is recirculating the air. So every pass through the machine, it is heating slightly warmer air. Air conditioners do the same thing. They RECIRCULATE the air. They don't take the 90 degree outside air and magically cool it through the freon coils in one pass.

@madeintexas3d4422 ай бұрын
The reason why it can get more BTUs than the capacity of the battery is because it is most likely a heat pump. They can get up to 5x the efficiency of a regular resistive heater because it is just transferring the existing energy in the environment instead of adding additional energy. Edit: Probably the reason why the heater didn't work in the first part was because it wasn't vented. If it is a heat pump it will blow hot air out the front and cold air out the back creating an environment that is the same as what you started with. If you can vent the waste air to the outside you would get better results.

Just turned the heat in mine on. 66° room air it’s blowing out 100.8° air. It’s not really cold out. But when it was in the mid 30’s outside its was still able to put out atleast 20° delta in temp difference. I believe ecoflow uses a not so low number for outside temp before it’s not as efficient. But it definitely worked when it got in the 30’s. The AC part in the upper 80’s an humid as hell. Depending just like the delta on heat. The fan speed. On low it’s about a 20° degree delta. Speed two it’s like 16-17 speed 3 is like 15-16 and turbo is like 14-15° difference. These things are made for off grid/power out and to be able to run off of battery banks aside from the attachable one. A not be a huge energy draw. I forget the square footage they claim but these things are for tent sized areas. Not home sized rooms and big duel rear axle rv’s ect. So it it don’t work for someone. They don’t know how to work with its limitations and maybe do different things to capitalize on its ability.

Heat pumps are limited by the pumped fluids' ability to evaporate/condense. If the ambient air is below the evaporation temperature of the fluid then the heat cycle will be unable to operate and you will just be pumping liquid at low pressures which is bad for a compressor pump. I bet the reason that the power level goes up is because as the evaporator warms up above the vaporization point of the fluid it quickly turns to gas increasing the pressure which in turn increases the pumping resistance that the unit sees.

Heat pumps lose efficiency once outside temps fall below 40 degrees F down to 25 degrees F. Below 25 degrees F, they become ineffective as there is not enough residual heat in the air for it to pull, hence why when installing a heat pump, the tech will install an auxiliary heater indoors in order to heat the space once temps become too low. There is an actual thermal switch in the external heat pump that will switch the unit over to aux heat once temps fall below the threshold. Auxiliary Heat will turn on automatically when heat can no longer efficiently transfer heat from the outside air to the heat pump.

It's only rated down to 41*, that's why it didn't work when the temp was 20*. Your heat pump in your garage heats at that 20* because it also has a heating element in it which the wave 2 doesn't have. This is more a fair weather heat/ac device. Think, you want to just warm up or cool down a room that may have bad airflow from your normal HVAC system or just to warm up or cool down a tent.

19:07 - With air source heat pumps this phenomenon is called COP degradation. This occurs when the temperature difference between outdoors and indoors decreases it becomes harder for the heat pump to extract heat from the outside air. To compensate for this the unit has to work harder, increasing the energy input to maintain the same heating capacity. I am not implying this particular AC/heat pump is efficient or perfect. The input power increase as the heat source temperature rises is normal for any air source heat pump.

How is a heater suppose to work if you have two hoses outside and one pulls in air as you say that defeats the purpose of heating
@davidbayliss3789Ай бұрын
I think it pulls in air through one hose; sucks the heat out of it and concentrates it to exchange with the air flow going through it in your room, and spits out that now-cooler outside air through the other outside hose. The cold outside air doesn't get into the room (principally). With so many hoses it does get a bit confusing. :) The theory is good - but this particular unit is hyped-up a bit from the looks of it and isn't the most efficient type and isn't rated for the outside temperature tested. I'd love to have a 500W similarly dimensioned device with those hose attachments that was rated for those temperatures and that could run continuously, and was good for A/C up to at least 104. I'm not sure they're available anywhere. :( My interest in this was piqued by those additional hose attachments ... for a moment I was fooled into thinking this might be a contender. :)
@davidbayliss3789Ай бұрын
nb: for more extreme temperatures and such small amounts of power as 500W, I suppose seeing uninsulated hoses are a red flag lol. With large deltas between temperatures, then all that surface area presented by long hoses sitting between the big temperature difference is going to introduce some considerable efficiency loss. Those hoses effectively become something of a heat exchanger. You can buy similar hoses but with insulated cladding that will surely make some significant positive difference to the efficiency under those circumstances.

Shout out to Tyler for buying so he can give an honest review of an expensive product.

I got that same space heater it works awesome

Do you run it with no venting hooked up?

You’d think for 1200 bucks they could put a decent modern display on it

I'm sure someone else has said it, but there ARE 2-tube "portable AC units" though they are uncommon

Heat pumps will really only run and “work “ down to about 36 outside and this is on full size residential high efficient systems. So 20 out side is way to cold
@EnjoymentboyАй бұрын
The math is easy. Heat pumps don't create the heat like a space heater does. They move it from one place to another. Some can move upwards of 2.5 times as much energy (in the form of heat) as they take to operate. So basically, for ever watt they consume they can move 2.5 watts of heat.

A 40deg temperature differential is amazing. HVAC engineer here lol
@grayrabbit22115 күн бұрын
40F differential isn't that big of a deal. I normally run a 28F-35F split across the Inside coil on my home heat pump in cooling mode. In my car I've had 55F splits. But n th are non-standard ACs running my special sauce.

@@grayrabbit2211 Yeah but with how it was set up and the fact it's not expected to be super efficient, I think that's dang good you know.

Also heat pumps start losing all their efficiency at 20° most heat pumps use a back up heat strip at that temp

Mine worked fine for about 2 months and now it will not charge from a/c. They have a grate warranty on paper but so far in use it dose not work well.

I like mine. Have this one a the zero breeze. There niche items. But. If you know an understand its limitations and how to capitalize on its abilities. There great units.

How well does it heat when you arent venting to the outdoors?
