ECOFlow Delta 1300 COMPLETE Teardown

[@katherinehayward1740]

*I love my new solar **Generater.Systems** . It has the right amount of charging power for my needs and the light weight makes the portability idea.*

[@charliehikes6108]

Thanks Jehu for taking the time to share this! We appreciate the work that you do. We're all looking forward to your next project! 👍

[@coolgamer1989]

Those batteries are 2500 mAh batteries, and those are 3C batteries each, these are more designed for E-bikes, these measure around 22 to 25 miliOhms each and about 500 cycles at 80% capacity, not so bad cells. the Fabric is called Guanzhou Grear Power Energy and Technology Co.

[@docholiday1544]

Can you order replacements online?

[@RobertShrimpton]

So 2 banks of 7 * 10 cells = 2 * 70 = 140 cells in total. Configuration appears to be: 10P * 14S. Cells are NMC chemistry with 3.6V nominal voltage, and probably 2.6Ah (2600 mAh) each (cell markings: GPHN 18-25P 19H26Z) 14S yields 14 * 3.6V = 50.4V. 10P yields 10 * 2.6Ah = 26Ah. Total energy: 50.4V * 26Ah = 1,310Wh. Would be great to replace the battery with LiFePO cells when the originals are exhausted (provided the charging circuitry is compatible).

[@owencudney8831]

Can you show us how to replace the batteries in the echoflow 1300 Thank you

[@chungsteroonie]

Got a Delta 1300 for Christmas 2021. The unit was only cycled about 5x. Very low use and stored plugged in (for emergency use). It died and will not power on. Well, it does power up for a sec when connected to AC and shows full charge. . .then shuts off. Is there anywhere in Northern California I can try to have it serviced? Gonna tear it down to see if anything obvious is blown, but ecoflow service out of warranty is non-existent.

[@philipplo]

same with my Delta 1300. Powers on for a few seconds and off. Tried to charge directly, checked fuses and various other tricks but I think I´m out of luck. Would like to repurpose the cells, looking for ideas. Support only told me to try to keep it plugged in and to send over. For a device that expensive, not really much trust in this company

[@BigDaddyJGG]

Same here. Big expensive paperweight now.

[@kuuphone3193]

I haven't seen any of the popular units "fail" somehow in people's testing and break downs. They all seem nice, and work the way they should... They just also seem to be at least twice the price of doing it yourself somehow. Sometimes more, if you know you don't need the features and power, and can do something similar but that fits your needs better.

[@FitzCrafter]

That's an impressive unit. I'd love to get one to power my camper.

[@PennIsMightier1]

nice tear down video. good to see that it's relatively easy for a end user to service

[@jameswyatt1304]

If you can get parts. Our Ryobi inverter was trivial to service, but the replacement inverter was almost as much as it was used and they didn't honor the 3y warranty because it's non-transferable. We bought it used at 1y and it promptly quit, of course, but that's for another channel...

[@mikejf4377]

Great video, liked that you could put it back together, very awesome looking.

[@antoniocamilo4748]

Pretty impressive tear down and explanations of different levels.Thank you so much.

[@pmag3200]

Very nice explanation... wow... that's a really complicated little system very nice for emergency situations or even taking camping...

[@mmarte1622]

Thanks for doing this Jahu!! Planning on making a separate battery 48 volts.. To expand the capacity if I ever get to use it. Ty

[@gusanoavila]

This thing is 48v

[@jonk8337]

Can’t wait for someone to make a video on replacing the battery down the line. If one finds the correct dimensions, they should be able to drop a generic 52v ebike battery in this unit. 14s, though used for 48v ebikes, is considered a 52v battery.

[@high1voltage1rules]

Your awesome buddy, been looking for a video like this and I new you would have it lol. Thank you so much for making this video. Very well recorded and put together. Brilliant really enjoyed one. 👍👍👍👍👍THUMBS UP👍👍👍👍👍

[@troublelessone7999]

Awesome.. you make it look so easy.

[@brechtthebest]

I am wondering how easy it will be to replace the battery cells if they start to degrade. That would make this a really durable unit, and possible upgrade once they manage to increase density of 18650 cells

[@DialM4Microcontrollr]

If you purchased it on kickstarter, and the batteries degrade, I believe you have a life time replacement warranty on the batteries

[@brechtthebest]

@@DialM4Microcontrollr That is a great possibility until they manage to get more energy dense 18650 cells or cells with longer battery life. Those could be a real upgrade later on

[@gunterhausleitner9144]

Great review and a fantastic inside view from this Powerstation. I think this is a solid and powerful unit.

[@geofoxee]

Thank you 👍

[@Yaman-D-Chhaya]

Lovely teardown Jehu great informative video, my battery work is in progress n am soon getting my packs done real soon. Hope to send you one of my units which is special in its design which I am making, will share details soon. Thanks for uploading this video Jehu, I am using the LFP chemistry.

[@albertogregory9678]

What a cool video! thanks jehu!

[@maxjensen8500]

Great review, makes me appreciate the technology that goes into making a battery system like this but at the same time seems like it also is way over engineered for what it does, my two cents 👍

[@henryly5474]

I have overload my 12v port and it does not work anymore. Is there any possibility to fix it? I can’t see any fuse for the 12v connector.

[@Gabelikestomove]

I have one but the battery is almost completely drained. Is it possible to buy a new kind of battery and replace it?

[@rodgerdodger3483]

Can you make a video how to make battery pack so you can extend amp hrs on the Delta ?

[@TransBillie]

Thanks for the review I will definitely be looking into one of these

[@lhhf]

looks great in a nice, compact package. Want one!

[@fernandodambros4693]

Hey, have ever think about to built a pack cycling charger using one pack to charge another? And them you reverse and so on. to test the cycling life of the batteries you but online. You can do like 12 to 20 cycles per day. Of course you have to add some extra power to compensate de losses. This could be a good thing to tests the battery life in short time!

[@Junesback]

Great job I learned something

[@htmagic]

Jehu, 48 volt seems an oddball voltage but the package seems well designed. Would love to win one!

[@DialM4Microcontrollr]

With higher voltage, there is less loss during the charging. If you have a home solar system running at 48v or 72v you will get a lot more power for your money than a 12v system. But a lot of people are just comfortable using 12v.

[@DJxSIS]

thank you

[@JLang-bn3hs]

So when the batteries Peter out, I will be able to add a new 48v LifePo4 battery with 2 connections?

[@IndependentNewsMedia]

Hey Jehu nice kit, but as people are quarantining themselves due to #ConVid19, please can you show, quick; easy to build 12V batteries, for the non technical people. Something people can make a home will basic hand tools. I enjoyed and made the 38120, 16 cells; 12V battery with BMS. Please also look at making low power inverter videos, ranging 600W to 800W, for people to have in the homes for emergencies. Great believer for making at home, if you make it, you know how to repair it. Keep up the good work. Chud in London

[@Yaman-D-Chhaya]

I highly recommend to go through Jehu's videos on the channel, he has shown detailed videos on making battery packs, not only that you can get all the stuff shown through him as much that you see except for cells is actually designed and made by Jehu.

[@soupisgoodfood42]

Nice idea, but I'm not sure there is a quick and easy way for non-technical people to build their own battery packs. They should either know what they're doing, or just buy something of the shelf. No need to add house fires to the problem.

[@Yaman-D-Chhaya]

#Node Systems Ltd, what our friend #soupisgoodfood suggests is the best idea to buy a ready made product with your required volt and amp HR rating coz point one these batteries are carrying ton of power, if manhandled they can show their devil inside if they are not connected correct you will cook those batteries n fry your work bench my brother Lolz, If you still insist to make a pack yourself I think Jehu has made tons of videos and they are simple, Rocket science is also simple if the basics of the concerned subject are clear my dear friend!!

[@zsolovyev]

Thank you very much for such a nice review! :)

[@carlcecil79]

HELP - How do you repair the EcoFlow 1300 if the solar panel input is not charging? I assume that fuse was blown. May have inadvertently reverse solar panel input into charger...HELP! Thank you....cpc

[@madlawjim4374]

Good Morning , i believe you might be the only #1 person whom might be able to help thousands of owners of this unit to make it a reliable item . i have purchased mine (EF3 pro) in 2020 and it has been replaced 3 times for non working condition ( not charging) it has left me stranded again and its unfortunate that ecofow inc will not stand behind the product . SO do you think you might have a rebuild solution for me ? thank you for your time

[@piedrogradati5154]

Thanks for that viedeo, very exiting. Could you plese make clear what kind of cells are in there? Are they 16850?

[@discojo1978]

I enjoy watching your videos 😎

[@BenJamin-ou7kd]

Thanks for the teardown

[@jayperez8192]

If jehu recommends it,I'm buying one.

[@alfredhatch3719]

I think you just might have voided your warranty but it's cool to see the inside of this.

[@duketogo2616]

Unless they can show he damaged something he hasn't voided the warranty per the Magnuson Moss warranty act of 1975. Those "warranty void if broken" stickers/seals are bullshit and run counter to federal law.

Hi there I got one question so I got the Delta 1300 my question is I have a 72v 41ah battery from my electric bike, is this will work as a back up supply for my Delta 1300! Please let me know. Thank you so much appreciate it. Love your channel.🍻

[@TheCornucopiaProject-bd5jk]

I have this unit, Delta 1/1300. And my battery life cycles are slowly reaching 500. When you disconnected the battery, can you connect those leads to any 48v Lithium battery?

[@twocommastv]

Are all the Ecoflow Rivers Defective?They dont has low voltage cutoff on the usb and my units keep getting bricked when I leave anything on the usb outlets too long and all they want to do is send me a replacement.This unit has a factory defect they are not fixing

[@limtbk]

Is there inside any switch between 110v / 220v and 50Hz / 60Hz? I think, it's make sense to produce same boards, and configure it for particular country by jumpers or switches.

[@mondotv4216]

I think the 25 would refer to 2500mAh which @ 10 P which would make it 1.26kWh

[@roda4129]

after some research, gphn is apparetly a thai company, also 25p mea 2500mah, and it's accurate with the ad' 140u X 2.5ah X 3.6volt = 1260Wh

[@briancollins3177]

Jehu, I’m a big fan of your channel. I am hoping you can help. I was placing a new male end on my Delta 1300 12 volt charging cord and got the polarity reversed on my “test” and there was an immediate slight “pop” sound. My Deltas is now totally unresponsive. The reset button does nothing. Hoping there is an internal fuse that I can replace. Any suggestions?

[@ShemaYisrael1948]

Any solution?

[@JLang-bn3hs]

Hey Jesus, Can you do a video where you would connect in parallel a 48v LifePo4 to the terminals inside the unit? Or can this even be done and the unit still work? I’m thinking that when the original batteries go, the unit would still be usable. Maybe with an external quick connect?

[@gamma5vega]

Nice Job in all your videos!

[@kayeloop674]

Can you do the same with a Point Zero Energy Titan Solar Generator. Love these breakdowns really lets you see what you are buying

[@sanelatutaris15]

I tried fixing the fuse for cigarette lighter and I didn’t see it. Did u see it? It’s like there is no fuse for cigarette lighter. When it dies, it just dies.

[@its_arvinsingh]

What’s the practical difference between lipos and 18650 cells in terms of safety nominal vdc capacity etc? Can lipos be used in a powerwall? Are lipos better in anyway? Or are 18650’s the holy grail.

[@sanelatutaris15]

My cigarette lighter died. Have you seen a fuse maybe in there that could be changed?

[@paulchook3365]

@jehugarcia Hello. Please tell me, I have an ecoflow delta mini 110V version. Is it possible to convert it somehow to 220V. Maybe they have the same circuitry and it can be solved with a simple switch on the board? What do you think?

[@shanicracker]

good

[@Emulani]

did you guys know the Megacellcharger project is back ?

[@ShanyGolan]

why didnt't @jehugarcia replace the batteries?

[@pulesjet]

Wasn't considering them using 48V. I would have thought 12 or 24v most. Guess they can squeeze a bit more efficiency out of the battery doing so.

[@soupisgoodfood42]

48v is pretty common for UPSs (which this basically is). Highest voltage without getting into dangerous territory.

[@watchfullbird6381]

@@soupisgoodfood42 Shouldn't 10S be 37V with a range from 42V to 30V. Or is 42V close enough to refer to it as 48V and not worry about semantics.

[@soupisgoodfood42]

@@watchfullbird6381 He said it was a 14S after a closer look. FYI, yes a 10S pack would probably be too low for an off-the-shelf system. You wouldn't want to drop a 48v lead-acid pack below 40v. But then again, UPSs are designed sacrifice their batteries if they have to, so I'm not sure what the true limit is on most systems.

[@Shtofman]

Great tear down, but you should have flipped the AC ports while it was open.

[@EDHBlvd]

I saw a video where they claimed EcoFlow says you cannot charge the delta with a gas generator. Is this true? I don’t see why if you have a generator rated to deliver the input wattage it needs to charge off AC.

[@curiophile]

You can use a gas generator as long as it's a digital inverter type gas generator with pure sine wave. I use a Honda EU2200i to charge mine, works fine.

[@michaelscalisi4316]

Perhaps they just mean it doesn't charge via DC or use the "smart" features of the Ecoflow generator which requires a delta pro or delta max.

[@jon964]

Is there any fuse if you use to much power on it ?

[@kswis]

Not an circuit engineer but a temp sensor directly on a mosfet seems weird. I feel it should be on the board near the mosfet bank. I'm going to assume they have a reason for putting it where they did though. 🤷

[@Pushinfee_4]

I would give this to my parents

[@tonyrodriguez9231]

Is there a way to connect one of their new "extra" batteries to this unit? Since this one didn't have the actual connection.

[@MR-ub6sq]

"In English or Vietnamese..." Hey dear Jehu! Due to my poor English, I follow automatic subtitles in the videos I watch. It usually works just fine. But exceptionally with this video of yours there is a problem with subtitles. I assume that your intention is always to select "English" for each of your videos, but this time you would have accidentally selected "Vietnamese". And the result is that the automatic translator listens to the audio track (where you speak English) and tries to understand it as if it were Vietnamese. And then the translator tries to translate this "Vietnamese language" into my language. You can guess that nothing will come of it. So would you like to check your video's release information to see if the language can be correctly set to English? Here's a sample of the first 2 minutes of the video: 0.00 Ừ rồi đi is my favorite for the strange 0.13 to show you what inside select Open this 0.17 love funny Story I like English looking 0.22 for Here is worth the Price dog Who will 0.30 she come to life Denim removable disk 0.33 with this past guards ai dog next 0.43 adapted to easy music are still take the 0.50 beach resort the complete and must say 0.54 nice parents should i 1.00 [âm nhạc] 1.04 20 một trái chuối We knew that connects 1.14 people with this world When I come up 1.35 this one Families or National movie 1.40 sport shoes black and white with ừ 2.00 I say what it's like to be your friend I know this is somehow fixable after the fact, because I've reported something similar to another publisher before, and they got it fixed pretty easily.
