I own 5 Ecoflow products including the smart generator, very satisfied with all of them, thank you for the review!

That’s great to hear! I would love to get one of those Ecoflow smart generators!

The generator would be great for quick recharge when you have multiple day outages. Solar is great but 2 more days off 1h recharge and no sun is awesome.

Power a fridge and your internet during an outage. If you own a large property you can throw this unit on a wagon and you get power on the go, instead of running super long extension cords. Also you can use it on a camping trip.

We run delta pro’s and extra batteries for home backup. But I wanted something more portable so I picked up the delta 2 Max with an extra battery and the new 800w Ecoflow alternator charger on a killer Mother’s Day deal. Saved $1249.00 with that deal.

Even if you don’t live in a hurricane region, ANYTIME you lose power, you need this. Refrigerator & freezers stay cold about 2 hrs IF you leave them closed. I lost power (~30,000 citizens in all) 2x last month. It was high 80’s first time, low 90{s the 2nd. If didn’t have one of these at the time. Had to throw out ice cream and other foods were thawing in freezer enough I didn’t want to take a chance on consuming, I.e. poultry. No power..no air conditioning, my puppy was miserable & I wasn’t happy either. So no I own the Delta 2 Max, extra battery & 2 x 220 w bifacial solar panels. Now I power my freezer and internet all the time with this system. If no AC I have large fans to get us by til power comes back on. My refrigerator is about 20 feet away so I have a 12 gauge extension cord to run that as well. With 4,096 watts I can go quite awhile especially when I have 440 watts of solar charging during this time. Even if you don’t experience power outages, you can get “free power” and power many items in your house with the power of the sun. You don’t have to buy all at once. Start with the DM2 & 1 x 220W solar panel…add the extra battery & another panel down the road. Plus if you enjoy outdoor activities & still want some “toys” along, this is portable enough to take with. Good luck!

And in "E.P.S." mode the unit switches from grid to battery backup in 30 milliseconds if the grid is lost.

Can this unit be run without a phone? Is the app necessary? What happens if there is no connection to ‘settings,’ will the unit work as well manually?

Yes you can use it without a phone but you would just not be able to use some of the advanced settings.

I have delta 2 with extra smart battery, it runs my top loading whirlpool washer for multiple loads but when I tried it with my whirlpool clothes dryer, it shut down "overload. " Will the delta 2 max with smart battery run my dryer? Elderly, so a bigger battery is not an option. Thank you. I like your demos, very clear.

@JeremiahMcintosh Ай бұрын

The Delta 2 is rated for 1800w output and the Delta 2 Max is rated at 2400w. The max would definitely have a better chance of running it but without knowing how many watts your unit uses, it’s hard to say.

@nancyb4221 Ай бұрын

@@JeremiahMcintosh It is so nice of you to reply so quickly , I really appreciate it. The only info on my whirlpool Cambria gas dryer that uses regular electrical outlet is: 120v, 60mz, 15-20 amp fuse. Could find nothing about Wtts, even called Whirpool customer service and they couldn't find it. I don't know where else to look. Another ? Does the added smart battery increase power or extend duration, and what is the "boost, " does it come on by itself or must a button or something need to be pressed? Apologies for my ignorance on all of this, but the manual provided with the batteries does not provide that or much info at all. I have used it for a lot of laundry, works perfectly and I can do multiple loads on a single charger. I really like the ecoflow batteties. Unfortunately, I purchased a couple of delta 2 just a couple months prior to release of delta2max. I plan to purchase delta 2max and extra smart battery if it will run my dryer. Was considering delta 3plus, but my understanding is that it is the same power as delta2, only lighter weight. Thank you in advance for taking time with this. I'm elderly and need guidance with this. You're are doing a very nice thing forpeople needing info. I've lookd at several sights describing ecoflow deltas and yours is the best, and provides the most detail, easy to understand for people not familiar with these things.

@nancyb4221 Ай бұрын

Re watt: found on internet: gas dryer use is approx 300-400Wt, 400wt innitoal surge , 300 after that. I have 2 smart batteries, can I hook up 2 smart batteries to eco2 and get wattage I need to run dryer. Thank you VERY much!

What brand are your solar panels?

@davidellingson1959 20 күн бұрын

If I get a second max 2, can I pair them for battery power, or must just separately use each? Like use one, while solar charging other.

@JeremiahMcintosh 20 күн бұрын

No you can not parallel them together but you can use the expansion batteries for extra battery power.

@davidellingson1959 19 күн бұрын

@JeremiahMcintosh thanks for answer. Knew some EcoFlow could pair, but wasn't sure. Buying an extra battery that costs about as much as same unit, makes you wonder about stepping up to another unit. Guess that's the point. 2 major hurricanes with max 2, and propane gen. Love this product. Thanks

Sorry for the late response I’ve just seen this comment. You would just need this unit and you could power most of your 120v devices directly from it. If you want to charge with solar you would need to buy solar panels also.

With the Lifepo4 battery you could essentially use it daily and it is rated to last 9-10 years to 80% efficiency . I would at least cycle it every few months.

Do you have a 120v outlet in your Tesla? If so you would definitely be able to charge it up by lowering the charging rate to the max output of your outlet or you could always charge it with the 12v outlet.
