HELP!! Broken EcoFlow and they wont help me!

[@BufordPusser582]

That's too bad that you're going through this. It's quite upsetting that they don't cover anything regardless of how you bought it. They can check by serial number whether it's still under warranty. Just because it's changed hands shouldn't mean the warranty is void. That's unacceptable as far as I'm concerned

[@UnitedPeacekeepers]

Yea I’m with you. They even confirmed it was still within the manufacturer warranty if I had bought it from them. I’m very disappointed because the unit was actually exactly what I was looking for. Now I have to build an off grid system from scratch. Bluetti reached out to provide me one of their systems but I didn’t want to go through the whole thing of paying for it again and risking an issue.

[@chromenuke5596]

I'm glad I watched your video, because the Delta Max I have wasn't charging either at 18% tops.... You showed you turned the switch to the lower charge speed, so I tried it on mine, and now it is charging again at the lower rate !! I can definitely go that route. Thanks !

[@byronmorris1594]

I found most of that unit is left outside. They are trashed from the moist air that most people leave outside, which damages the PCB boards with solder joints that come with contamination. Before you had the unit, the person before you just left it outside.

[@harleymotorcycle6993]

It is rare that warranty is transferable. Any thing you buy used is always a gamble. It is unfortunate you have problems with both of these units. I cannot blame manufacturer's not doing any warranty, like i mentioned, it is very rare those warranties follow through to new owners. Taking them apart is your best bet to try and repair, it very well could be an easy fix.

[@UnitedPeacekeepers]

Agreed gonna try and get it done this week

Welcome to Eco Flow Customer Dis-Service. I jumped on the bandwagon with their first crowd-funder and bought two of the Delta 1300's. One has a 12VOLT ERROR flashing, but powers everything else with DC and AC, and will charge with solar and AC. The other, I got a new panel with an XT60 on it, and failed to check it. It was reversed, and when plugging in, it made a popping sound, and then would not solar charge. (It charges on AC, but that is so inefficient that I never use it.) So, CS went around and around with me. Said they didn't have records of my 2 units. I told them the date and credit card # that they cashed, and sent pics of the name plates and delivery dates. Then they wanted videos...I said "Of what, the unit sitting there and not charging from solar? And, of the error icons flashing?" Yep, they wanted all of that. So I asked them if they had added the reverse polarity protection diode to units after this one, and they wouldn't answer. (They saved a buck, and left me with a POS!) So, I send them the ridiculous pics/video. Finally, I told then I could live with the DC port not working, but on the other one I needed the solar charging fixed. They finally sent me an invoice; $470 for shipping (back to me) and repair! I told them the unit was not worth it, and to cancel the case. But no, I kept getting notices that I owed them money! So, I stopped trying to tell them to cancel, and hit a button on the PayPal invoice that asked "Do you recognize this invoice, or suspect it Is this a Scam?" I answered YES, and haven't heard from EF since. I am very happy with my to Bluetti's though! Best wishes, and Just Say NO to EcoFlow!

[@welshmanwithacampervan5019]

If you take the small one apart you will most likely see the MPPT has a wet board and see some mosfets have popped which will need replacing if you can solder. The Delta pro you will need to take that apart and look at the power transformer section and look at the capacitor and resistor see if you notice a wet or burnt area

Hi. I already using it for two years. Newer has issues after active camping use. What i did? After i bought, i made reset to default settings by pressing light and car charging both together for 10 seconds. After that, i connected it to my phone and upgraded it's firmware. Restored settings to its default by pressind two buttons mantioned above. Always doing restore default settings before every charge.

Came here to say my ecoflow delta 2 also broke after 4 with basically no use, just had it sitting idle for emergency.

[@WednesdayRaven]

Try reset BMS by turning on the and hold the power button till it restart as in the lights off and on back . Another way is the do this. Use the apps and contact ecoflow. Say you want go re-update the firmware for this product. They will re-send and you will be able to do so. Suspect it is the firmware on the BMS issue. When you update the firmware. Be sure to plug a power cord into it to prevent it from shutting down during update. Hope it solves the issue.

[@Alexander-jr8nw]

i had the same overload issue with a river2 300w powerstation, ended up returning it to the store i've bought it from, they returned my money, I've added some extra and got another, more powerful, 1kW inverter with around 800Wh battery powerstation (not ecoflow), not because I really need that much power (most that i'll ever need is like 100-150w during an power outage) but rather the mindset of 'the bigger the battery the longer the runtime' anyways, in my case, plugged it in to charge, waited for a little bit to start taking power as usual, but instead of charging, I've heard a muffled pop and it began to smell like basically burned up electronics really(the kind of smell you feel when a transformer is burning up), but no smoke, same story let it cool off, rebooted it as you wrote, and also how it is written in its manual under the troubleshooting section, plugged it back in it started charging normally, then, again, the same problem, then, after some time, it never recovered, just popped up overload (blinking) and bye basically, ok, I said, let's see if it charges via USB-C, plugged it to a USB-C charger, well, started charging with no issues whatsoever, also it charged fine via solar/car input as well, the problem was only with the AC. Taking power out of it via USB-C also worked, no problems, the inverter also worked (it provided 230VAC with no problems) USB-A and the 12VDC socket were also working fine so, in conclusion: this doesn't look to be a software issue by any means (if a software issue was the case, then there would have been no pop, also no burned electronics smell, only the odd behavior and nothing else) , also if this was a software issue with the BMS then charging it via USB-C/solar would had been also impossible I think. Rather this is probably a problem with the builtin AC supply only.

@@Alexander-jr8nw oh that's pretty sad to hear. It's good you got your money back . Safety first .

[@Alexander-jr8nw]

@@WednesdayRaven speaking about safety, I know my case wasn't singular, searched on the web found other people saying the same thing (including the guy in this video), I think ecoflow should collect as many defective units with this issue as possible and give them to their engineering team to dissect and analyze to isolate, find what is causing this issue and take the appropriate steps to fix this, in any case, unlike classic petrol or diesel generators, these devices are silent and do not emit harmful exhaust fumes, so, people tend to keep and use them mostly indoors, if this problem can be a fire hazard in some cases, a fire inside a home or an office can lead to catastrophic outcomes, so, safety first, this is why I said what I said

On the Delta unit, could you try and leave it plugged in overnight, solar if possible. Maybe its too dead to receive a charge. On the Pro unit, I did notice you were on 50hz, needs to be 60hz.

Had mine for 4 months. Then they stopped charging. I had it plugged in to the wall to charge at 80% max to maintain battery life. I also made sure to adjust the settings so that it would never go below 10% because discharging the battery all the way is not good either from what I understand. The red battery symbol with an exclamation point in it appeared. Also, the word, "overload" appeared. I haven't even used it yet to power anything. The solar panels didn't work when I plugged them in when I first got it...I wonder if the updates are screwing it up?

You da man! Do you think i should just take them apart and put the batteries to better use as a 12v powerwall?

[@ATF.California]

@@UnitedPeacekeepers you could take them apart and hook the batteries up together to make new portable generator that’s probably the easiest and cheapest option yeah it’s not gonna look as good when they were in the factory cases, as long as both battery packs are outputting voltage then you could literally use them for anything. If I was in your situation and had a property out in the woods I’d just turn it into a power wall hook the pack to solar panels to recharge them hook the pack to a good inverter then connect that to the rv with that 310-320amp plug. Its the more expensive option if you don’t already have the panels and inverter but if you do then that is the way to go just connect the batteries positive to negative and your good save the fans and re use them in the pack to keep it cool other then that you don’t need to reuse anything else in them you might be able to reuse the bigger case if u can fit everything in it (two batteries) But it’s up to you whatever you feel comfortable doing if the company isn’t trying to help you and you don’t want repair them then yeah just pull the batteries

So I know that the converter to make your AC is also the the converter to charge your batterie . Normally it's 2 different circuit but Thay made it that way and it's really smart. But if you fry your AC input then you also fry your AC output . So For me you can check the AC motherboard to chek what composant is dead and replace it. or if you don't want to do it then find an electronician that can check the board and do the replacement for you. Or if you can buy just this piece from an aftermarket if there is any for ecoflow. I hope I'm clear because I'm french and I try not use any translator so I can make mistake ;p

[@MosaicHomestead]

Get a reliable 48v single phase inverter, 8 marine batteries, and a outback charge controller and a combiner box from midnite solar. Get rid of the Air conditioning, and install a couple of fans, The ACs killed those batteries, those Ecoflow batteries are not designed to run heavy loads all night every day, those things will only run small loads every day without too much battery degradation, you need a decent solar system to do what you want to do, if you charge the marine batteries on the system I'm talking about to Rolls batteries, you could probably get away with what you want to do, also look into 12v lighting that can run all night with just one marine battery, you can literally get any light bulb that fit in normal sockets to run on a small 12v system, this system can also power 12v TVs, I know because I'm doing it right now.

Sorry you are going through this crap with equipment that was supposed to be dependable no matter how the warranty is exchanged. I see that some commenters are trying to clown you with having bought second hand and not from the company directly, I say you had saved some money in the long run because Ecoflow is the Apple of these companies. All they do is pump out system models and price them then move on and hardly support those systems. There just like iphones, cheap item but at luxury prices, also Ecoflow customer service is a joke because they only support I got was their Facebook page. First and worst system bought, Ecoflow River with expandable battery. $650 new stopped working second year never charging or turn on again, same model refurbished from Ecoflow $265 worked for one year and 9 months but stopped charging by solar last week and discharges constantly just sitting around. About to buy another River model because they're on sale for $109 only because my expandable battery still is useful and I paid $300 for it, if it weren't for that then I'd have gone with Jackery or Bluetti.

Hi,i have had the EC River pro, was set to 50hz when i got it and it wouldnt charge,so when i reached out to them,they replaced it within like one week and the new one was set to 60hz. I slso have the Delta Max and i havent had any issues with it though,both of my units were purchased brand new too. Have you tried a different DC to XT60 solar cable to charge the Delta Max? Have you also tried a firmware update on the Max? Thats a bummer what you are going through too man. Best of luck too.

So i did try a new cable, I even made one and it didn’t work. 1 came with each unit I bought. Both were updated to the latest firmware and I was really hoping that was the issue and it wasn’t.

This negates TOU use because the systems stop charging at fast rate starting at 111 degrees! They don't state that anywhere in their promotion. If you use TOU to save money, you will run into this problem which will give you slow charging, high battery temperature, as much as 117 degrees. Then the whole thing shuts down!

Small one is probably a bms error just need to find a way to trickle charge battery and the it will fix.. the big one something is blown the most probable reason i can think is that your gas generator is not an inverter generator ( pure sine wave ) and the square wave damaged the electronics.. after you solve your problem be sure that your generator is a pure sine wave so you don't blow it up again..

I will leave the second hand comment off, as others have echoed my thoughts (you don't really know how much abuse the previous owner but these things through). That being said, I definitely don't want you to get discouraged more, as off grid is a good lifestyle choice! :) The overloading the Pro by powering it with the gas genny was my thought as well. BUT! Here is something you can try for the smaller Delta. Are you able to get it connected to the mobile and and try and get a firmware upgrade? Somethings that helps even though it is the equivalent of smacking a TV to get a better signal. :) Again, don't get discouraged, as this stuff happens. I just made the jump from Goal Zero to EcoFlow products about 9 months ago, so I haven't had them long enough to learn all of the little idiosyncrasies they may have. Edit: I had forgot to put that in your video when you talk about the Pro drawing power but the Max not charging, if the Pro is anything like my Delta 2 and even older Goal Zero, just having the inverter on takes about 7-9 watts.

The suggest the following. "disconnect the input>> press the power button for 10 seconds and let it off for 2 hours. Then turn it back on and test again.". considering you kept plugging in the unit. trying to charge it & trying to use it after the error message without correcting the error message first, there could have been some dmage done to the unit (which would explain the burnign smell your experienceing).

Same here , ecoflow support is useless, and bugs reported one year ago ares still there.they dont support their products, just launch new products with new bugs and new marketing.

[@jeverett1636]

U tried to save a couple bucks & got robbed. Why didnt u go back to the guy who sold them to u and have him turn them in for warranty work? U dont even know the original purchase date, u dont know if they were stolen from a homicide victim or not.Just imagine these were stolen out of a house where somebody died AND U HAVE THEM ever heard of a smoking gun

[@kennethwood2089]

Bro--calm down. It's not worth getting sick over.

[@fatguyonagrom9515]

I'm having an issue with my Delta 2 Pro 768wh as well that is flashing Overload and 50hz and smells like it's burning when I tried charging it. A/C Outlets don't work and wont connect to Update. I tried letting it set overnight while off and unplugged and still same issue. Mine was bought new at the end of July from Lowes, and just started this Friday Night while I was trying my new 12v Freezer/Refrigerator. So I get to deal with them Monday...Bummed

[@UnitedPeacekeepers]

They are for sure gonna ask for your receipt. That sucks! I really wish it just worked. I have been seeing that when they fail they usually burn something up like you and I were describing. I hope she gets fixed!

[@baneverything5580]

Ecoflow is junk. Lots of people discover the truth the hard way. Gotta build your own solar setups. That way when a part fails you can repair it.

[@mrjc12]

What’s the update on this? Did you call Monday? 😬😊

[@quickquote1568]

Ecoflow uses the cheapest, short lived high frequency inverter technology that's available on the market. They don't even use an isolation transformer in any of their products. You should have bought a low frequency, transformer based solar generator instead.

[@TheTruth10153]

I have a delta Max totally bricked with in 2 years just as the warranty ran out …absolute junk go diy these all in one units are trash

[@christopherort2889]

Well, you did buy it second hand. So they're not obligated to do anything. Not much you can do about it.

[@UnitedPeacekeepers]

I agree. But its still within the 5 year warranty period. If I had bought straight from them they would honor it. Seems silly to not honor the same issue just because they didnt get my money first hand. Definitely a tactic to make everyone buy new.

[@spectre1010]

Other than spread the word so that other potential buyers like me look elsewhere.

[@howdydiddy]

Ecoflow customer service ?

[@michaelwillman7402]

Yeah, the customer service is worthless... For your delta pro there are a lot of KZbin teardowns, I like jehugarcia reviews and teardown. Your delta max may need to be reset, and charged via the DC connection on the side. Withe the xt60 charge port for the back they will be either the yellow or orange. Yellow is standard but the the orange has 2 different male connectors that it will accept 1st is the car plug and internally is wired differently. This is due to typical car sockets being limited to lower amp capability, the 2nd is the solar and can push more amps and watts. The mppt controller will only take what it's able to, but more power can be fed into it. Hope this helps n f the customer service monkey's ...

[@UnitedPeacekeepers]

Thanks man, I did try that and it just kept blinking. I agree I was hoping they would help me because I was ready to buy 4 batteries. I’ll take a look at his tear downs and see what I can do.

[@7sonero7]

As soon as you said second hand, I was done . U should know better, buddy .

This product should be banned,i had river 2 pro one month later DC & Solar stop charging.pis of set !!!

[@justinvanaulen2478]

Do you research, it appears that everything Ecoflow makes fails quickly.

[@pogmothoin3288]

So what brand would you recommend

[@joey24698]

the display shows 50Hz, you need 60Hz

[@MrNightro]

I noticed that as well & just came to scroll the comments to see if anyone else picked up on that.

[@joey24698]

@@MrNightro sadly I'm afraid feeding 60Hz into it has most likely destroyed the main logic board

[@UnitedPeacekeepers]

That didn't start till after unfortunately.

You said in the video you had them outside? You never want to leave a power station in the sun.

[@rogerduc]

Read trust pilot reviews

[@rexwaly4411]

that sucks

[@happyhamster1411]

Your problem is you bought everything second hand and want the original manufacturer to reimburse you, which NEVER happens in todays world. Or any other world for that matter. Don’t blame ecoflow because you gambled and lost.

[@UnitedPeacekeepers]

Eh maybe. When I build a house it’s warranties for 3 years no matter who lives in it. Just like my car. It wasn’t a gamble. The units worked great until they didn’t.

[@RoyHubby]

​@@UnitedPeacekeeperstrue!!!! Recalls are the same way!!!!

[@leemclaurin9761]

If you buy a car, motorcycle, etc. with a 5 years warranty from someone and it's 2 years old, would you say the same thing? The manufacturer's warranty should apply no matter who owns it.

[@richarddonegan4666]

I can tell you your problem right now is you're not supposed to use all those extension cords... You want to plug directly in, with at least 600 to 800 Watts in solar panels. For each unit.... Some people don't know you need a Y adapter for some of the ecoflows for a proper recharge..

[@DianaRossOrlando]

Ecoflow told me that five 100 watt panels were maximum. One year later it won't take a charge with solar or electric. The bad press will get the word out that ecoflow is not a good choice because they are NOT interested in customers.

[@richarddonegan4666]

@@DianaRossOrlando You gotta read up on them solar panels. They say in the purchase that those 100 watt panels put out 400 to 500 watts per hour each panel I think you over charged your ecoflow...

[@timjphi9045]

@@DianaRossOrlando It is the volts that are dangerous. AMPS x VOLTS = WATTS. If 5 panels are wired in series, they might go over the volt limit and cause damage.

Should have bought a generator
