Powers Entire Tiny House! Ecoflow Delta 1300 Power Station

Impressively, the compact & powerful Ecoflow Delta 1300 power station can run our entire tiny house! We first tested it when our host's power went out, resulting in a real-world backup power situation.⚡1800 Watts, 3300W Surge (Pure Sine Wave)- full specs: amzn.to/3j1qLAV ⚡In our product review, we share various ways to use & recharge the Delta 1300 #powerstation with key comparisons to other mobile power stations / solar generators.
We tested the Delta's solar power recharging capability by connecting it to our 2, 400-watt solar panels--installed on our tiny home roof. Later on a camping trip, we tested it with the fold-out EcoFlow 110W Solar Panel.
⚡⚡ Top Delta 1300 Features:
-Fully recharge within 1hr with AC power - 10x faster than most portable power stations
-Fully recharge with solar panels in about 4 hrs (dependent on direct sunlight and panel capacity), AND with a 12/24V carport in 10-12 hrs - again faster than other available options
-Comes with universal solar input (MC4 to XT60 Connector) - unlike other mobile power stations
-Large inverter load enables it to power most home appliances AND heavy-duty tools under 1800W (3300W Surge, Pure Sine Wave) with 1260Wh capacity
-Can charge an electric car! Comes with the necessary cable
-Small-space friendly size! 15.7 x 8.3 x 10.6 in (40 x 21 x 27 cm)
☀️🏡 In the future, we might invest in a 2nd Ecoflow Delta 1300. Both could easily fit under our couch and could be connected to our 400-watt solar panels to ensure continuous #offgridpower for our tiny house. Mini-homestead goals! ☀️⚡

[@vladmirhoopnagle1170]

I bought 2 of these Delta units and 2 banks of the Ecoflow solar panels recently and agree these are the handiest, most efficient, and lightest power stations out there. I actually paid around $1100 for the Deltas and the solar panels were the same as presented here. They are quite portable and hook up easily in parallel to provide upwards of 200 watts charging capacity. I haven't really needed to use them in an emergency situation so far, but I've charged them both to 100% with a combination of solar and wall plug charging. I live in Texas, and after going through the ridiculous power outages during our last winter's big freeze out, I said never again will I be without light and heat. Even if it never happens again, it's good insurance, just like any other insurance for other contingencies.

[@kimfrederiksen3556]

Thanks for the review. 🤗👍

[@free2binnh]

Thanks for the video, I am considering buying the Delta 1300, I have an AC200P connected to our kitchen and living room. The Delta 1300 and the River Max will be used to recharge the AC200P during power outages, essentially providing 4000wh. The Delta 1300 can also be used to provide power in other areas of the house. I like the idea of separate units rather than the Delta Max and the extra battery which needs to be plugged into the Delta Max. Separate units provide more flexibility during power outages.

[@avellaneh]

It is on sale now for $1099! I just bought one!

[@jonchapman4072]

[@diamonddbw]

Appreciate all of the content, and variables. Just ordered one yesterday. Current price is $1199, although I found one on Ecoflow's ReFurb's for $899, so huge savings. Have been reviewing all the options from other companies, and decided 1300 to be a great back up option for almost anyone. Apartment dwellers, could also use this with a solar panel or 2 (Provided they have a South facing window or porch/balcony). Done correctly could save monthly power bill. The only negative is to remember this is Lithium Ion. So do not charge up to 100% every time. Doing this, along with Fast charge, will limit the life of the unit.

[@TinyHouseExpedition]

Great points! Thanks for the kind feedback ☺️

[@ericliume]

In EcoFlow APP, you can tweak the charge limit to 95%, 90% or 80%, so the EcoFlow will charge itself accordingly and you don't need to think about it all the time.

Just got my eco flow two days ago tried it on my portable heater 1250 watt it lasted about 45 min , but I knew that so im going buy a smaller watt heater for my RV instead of running my propane Heater which is so loud ugh' I got the Delta for when I have no shore power available , like if im at a rest area etc I have power without turning on my generator thats Why I bought it , and for the quick charge I could go into a bathroom at a rest stop,and charge it up Sooo fast its awesome but as for running alot of things it will drain the battery really fast. Go tater tots. I think if your going to run alot of the you might want to by the ac200 Bluetti good video.👍

[@josephdebes3060]

Or you can buy the new expansion batteries (up to 2) that plug into the Delta 1300, to increase the run time AND eventually (when out of Kickstarter status) a small gas table top size generator that you can program to automatically come on when the batteries are down to 20% and switch off when the battery is back to 80% (you program with software on your phone). The combination should keep your system running for days even if cloudy days go on. The gas generator has to be kept outside of course with a charging cable to where you put your Delta. It really is a flexible system

A better setup (assuming you can store them) is a Delta Max as you can add additional battery units which are a similar siqze and shape of the main unit. More capacity and expandable. Guess it depends on space and budget.

You will decrease the life of the battery with direct charge from the wall. As far as the 2 items plugged in you may need to reboot the system(turn off and back on, while plugged in) to turn them on.

You can drain completely with no ill effects! They consider a full cycle: completely charged to completely drained to charged again. Though the lifespan is about 800 cycles; then the capacity will be about 60%

[@truthseeker3967]

I;m not a very technical person, but I would think that a dryer would overwhelm a unit like this, and probably most units. I talked to some sales people about little mini heaters and they said those pull too much power. But I like the adapter too.

[@josephdebes3060]

Most RV shops sell the “dog bone” adapter (got mine from Lowe’s actually). The dryer will work, but likely deplete the power quickly without extension batteries and eventually a small gas recharging generator (still in Kickstarter status I think…November 2021). If you need something long term, you might consider a cylinder “spin” dryer ($125-$150) which will spin the water out of your clothes and then allow them to completely dry up on hangers in a few hours. They plug in, but take about 10% of the power your electric dryer would eat. They are available online…have one for a vacation home…works great!

[@edolson1698]

It's NOT a 220 volt plug , it's a heavy duty 120 volt 30 amp RV plug with a 15 amp household adapter so don't plug your unit into a dryer.

This is our honest take on it. This is not a paid review, though we were given the product to try out with no required talking points or required positive feedback.

[@2MasterBuilder2]

This is a nice all in one unit but I think $1800 is a rip off for only 100ah. You could build a solar system with a much larger battery bank for $1800. Dollar for dollar, this unit just doesn't measure up to a custom solar system. Because of the portability, these units are great as a back up option in the event of a power outage (to power CPAP machines, charge phones, etc) but they are not a good option to power a tiny home on a consistent basis. One thing that wasn't mentioned was the amount of charges you get on the battery (and that using the super charge mode decreases that number). Since this is an all in one unit, you cannot replace the components separately.

[@TinyHouseExpedition]

Tony Joyner good points 👍👍 a friend is actually borrowing ours to power a cpap while camping. The flexibility that comes with portability is definitely the best part. We used numerous different ways already, from powering camera lights to heavy duty tools, etc. It gets 800 cycles-from 0 to 100 and back to 0 is considered a cycle

This was great! Thank you for the review. One question please... On the back of the unit where the loads plug in is there actual metal to metal contact between the ground pin of the plug and inside the unusual looking receptacle? Another review said there was no actual connection to the ground pin, which sounds unusual. Thanks

[@josephdebes3060]

The ground pin on the plug goes into the hole on the Delta, but it is not grounded. There really is no way to ground this unit, however it really has not caused any problem running my standard house side by side refrigerator and a 12 year old 19 cubic ft house freezer together (6 hours at start up, when both compressors are running, but cycles to about 10 hours, because each compressor runs only about 15-20 minutes out of each hour). I keep them both plugged into the Delta and the Delta plugged into the wall ( and 2 x160 watt solar panels connected) so the Delta takes over “automatically “ with a short milliseconds delay when the power goes out. For sensitive computer equipment, that short delay might be too long for a computer server to come back on. I solved that problem by using an inexpensive APC brand continuous power box to plug my desktop and internet router into, then the APC into the Delta to ensure the short “gap” between power outage and Delta switch over keeps sensitive electronics running.

With handles positioned where they are the screen should be on the long side so you can put the unit against a wall with the screen facing out whilst allowing equal access to the outputs on the sides under the handles.

I guess it depends on what you're doing. I'm using mine to power my fridge for part of the day.

For me, this way is better, and the side section is convenient for the solar plug-in.

What do you guys heat with?

A bit heavy. 20# the most 65+ can handle

[@julzbergener8142]

I agree. But you're not going to be carrying or moving it much. I'm 55+4, and have arthritis and pain issues. But the benefits of the Delta outweighed that for me. My Delta is on its way to me! Hope that helps 😉

If you want to charge it quicker AC you get a small inverter that you can plug into your cigarette lighter and you plug it into the inverter AC and charge it up in an hour and a half off your car

[@julzbergener8142]

OMG!!! I never thought of that! Thank you 😊 I'm electricity illiterate, lol, what size inverter would I need? I currently have a 400w

[@garyreed354]

@@julzbergener8142 read the label on the charger and see how many amps it needs or it is

[@Robnord1]

That's very inefficient. Taking DC, making it into AC (about 12-16% loss), converting that AC into DC to charge the unit (another loss), and gaining AC output (yep, another conversion loss) may work, but not well.

[@garyreed354]

@@Robnord1 faster to charge with ac loss or no loss atill faster your driving anyhow

@@garyreed354 😂 You have wowed me with your electrical knowledge. lol Ohm's Law and the Power Law is your friend, and worthy of study.

Thank you for all the information on the generator, what is the name brand of your solar panel on top of your house. Can I put any 200 watt solar panel and attach it to the eco flow generator? Thank you in advance.

I was going to ask same question...lol...
