I have a Delta Mini, different I know but it arrived with a car charger cigarette type plug one end and a XT60i [intelligent plug that i see you are using] on the other. As i didn't need the car plug I cut it off and used that cable to connect to the 200watts of solar panels. As I understand it..... the XT60i limits the current the power station can draw from the cars socket preventing blowing a fuse on the vehicle. I at first had the same trouble as you. Starting at 160w but throttling back to only 50watts....... I also have a All powers R600 and I found that it was pulling 180watt from the same panels. The R600 came with a XT60 [WITHOUT THE EXTRA CONTACT] and when I used that lead with the Delta mini it pulled the 180 watts the same. Not saying thats your problem but it worked for me.
sounds like its in timed boost mode? i dont have one.. im all old👴 school. but my controller does that. my main problem was a battery temp sensor limiting charging as a default.. i unplugged it fixed the problem👍 shame you are on # 4
@@JackDaniels85-4x4Vandura it seems to be a timed reset after unplugging with a boost? so mine starts off with a timed boost..? but my system is very basic. i even did away with battery probe that helped. im finding watching it seems no one has an easy go with solar.
I've done a lot of witching with my friend when Paul was working on Maui. It always worked perfectly for us. I think I still have the copper wires here in a drawer, somewhere. Old timers sure were connected to the earth.
I believe the EcoFlow has a 15 amp limiter built in, with a max voltage of 150 and max wattage of 1600 watts. So you want your voltage as close to the 150 volt limit without going over that will reduce your current as low as possible.
What’s the max voltage in from the solar panels for the Ecoflow (VOC). Try Parallel the panels instead of series and bring down the voltage. My Jackery only can take in 30 volts. Just a suggestion. Not sure about your Ecoflow.
Of course it's not, because it uses cheap high frequency, output transformerless inverter technology. You should have bought a low frequency, transformer based portable solar generator if you wanted a unit that lasts.
@@Masterhughesproductions Many major brands use low frequency, transformer based technology including Outback Power, Sigineer Power, Magnum Energy, Victron Energy and Schneider Electric.
so you have 3 matching panels and the 4th panel at the back is different. Am I right..? controllers hate mismatched panels and batteries. That's my guess\thought.
@@JackDaniels85-4x4Vandura I would agree except the battery 😁 also good luck on the non Asian inverter. Also amen on the wife and credit card. Those guy charged over a grand for a battery for a long long time.
It's a bit odd that you think that Ecoflow is the problem after getting 3 units with the same problem. Why dont you try it with some other solar panel, some other cable or even try your solar panels with some other power station before jumping to conclusions?
Try not to mix and match different panel types. Try to use panels in pairs. In this setup you could however wire the 3 similar panels in series. I'm not sure how the ecoflow works, but a lot of charging systems will vary the incoming voltage based on the state of charge of the battery, so as the battery gets closer to 100%, the watts you see incoming will go down even though they looked higher before with the same amount of sun. A better way to describe what is happening as your battery charges is this - Think of your battery as an empty parking lot that can hold 1,000 cars. Since it's empty, lots of cars can come in and park fast and easily (high input watts), as the lot fills up, the cars coming in to park have to go slower as they now have to search for an empty spot (lower watts), when you get close to 1,000 cars parked, it really slows down (very low watts). Now if you have the same issue (low watts) when the battery SOC is low, then that might be a different issue than what I am describing.
Unfortunately thats pretty common issue with other powerstations as well. One way to get around it is to keep them off from eco mode or standby mode. Keep the screen on at all times. Atleast thats what worked with mine.
