Best reviews on RU-vid, I don't buy any electronics until I see a Hobotec review first 😀

@HOBOTECH Год назад

@@billytanglewood5665 Explain how my review is "slanted". I'm very transparent in my testing and I do identical tests with every power station. I tell it like it is no matter the brand. I don't know how more "objective" a review could be.

@HOBOTECH Год назад

@@billytanglewood5665 You must be new. I've been doing this amp noise test for nearly the past two years the exact same way for every inverter. All knobs set to max with nothing on the input. I'm not measuring the background HISS but the 60hz BUZZ. This BUZZ is generated by the inverter circuitry and has nothing to do with the amp or the settings. Noisy inverters pass this BUZZ through the amp. Some products produce this BUZZ and others don't. Try watching more of my reviews and see this very objective test over and over again. By the way, it's a Peavey amp not a Roland which makes it clear you're not even paying attention. Try again.

@HOBOTECH Год назад

@@billytanglewood5665 There's nothing wrong with my test. I've done the A/B in other videos. No need to waste everyone's time. Apparently, the issue is that you're in a different reality. This video is about an ECOFLOW and yours is an ECOTECH. SMDH... Strike two, you're out. When you can't even name products you own the rest becomes BS. Glad your "Ecotech" is working out for you. 😆

@jayp9059 Год назад

This is by far the most informative reivew on the ECOFLOW. You actually saved me from wasting my money - the product is great but the UPS losing power temporarily is a deal breaker... you're the only one who has been fully transparent in your review... THANK YOU

This is perfect for me! I plan to use this more for car camping, SHTF mobilization, and general power outage power supply for minor applications! The UPS functionality doesn’t apply to me since my job bought me 2 Tripp Lite APC UPS’s during my short stint working from home during Covid!

@theociba3762 5 месяцев назад

Thorough review - thanks for putting this together. I just picked this up today and it comes with the backup battery. I don't live off grid daily, but when power goes out it should have what I need to run a tv, Mac, and fridge, lights overnight so I can turn off the RV gennie outside. They say to long press the power to turn on/off, but oddly, neither master/slave turns on/off - just sleeps. Need to re-read the manual! You earned a sub and thumbs up from me.

@johnnymoore6730 Год назад

I agree that it was a really long wait for an update but Ecoflow does really know how to make a pretty awesome produce even better.

@DMAN22yeah Год назад

Well this convinced me to get one. Ive been eyeing the delta max for use in a garage with no power but couldn't stomach the $1800 all at once. I was able to stack your code with an amazon promotion which sealed the deal for me. Update after months of use: I have the delta 2 with the delta max extra battery being used in my garage. Overall I am extremely happy with my purchase. I added a shoulder strap to the delta 2 so I can carry both units at the same time. The delta 2 is capable of powering every load combination I have put on it without hesitation including: 8gal air compressor plus 300w of lights and fans Shop vac, orbital sander, and 300w of lights and fans 6" circular saw plus 300w of lights and fans The only thing I havent tried is my 110v welder which I feel confident it will power. Something I have not seen advertised anywhere is if you have the extra battery connected the unit will charge at up to 1500w. In my testing the unit is also capable of 2200-2300w for up to 30 seconds and 2000w for well over a minute. I am able to fit both the extra battery cable and a shorter ac charging cable in the compartment on the delta max extra battery. The fans are somewhat loud but really arent that bad, if the unit is in the next room charging I only hear it if I really listen for it and in my garage everything I hook up is much louder than the unit itself. I only have two minor complaints, one of which is when ac power is being fed in/out there is a very noticeable high pitched noise from the circuitry inside. It is not a big deal in my application but inside a house it could be rather annoying. The other complaint is that the cable to go between the delta 2 and extra battery is extremely stiff. Its not so bad when its warm out but if its cold at all the cable is horribly stiff to the point that it can be hard to plug into the units. The plugs also stick out really far from the side of the unit. It would be very nice to see a cable with 90 degree connectors on it and a more flexible jacket.

@numberwang1256 Год назад

Note that the solar/car charge plug on the Delta 2 is not xt60 (2-pin) but xt60i (3-pin). To deal with the 15A car charge problem, they make use of the 3rd pin, even though there are only 2 wires. For the car charger, the 3rd pin is connected to + (flat side of the xt60i), and that is max at 8A input (according to the app). For solar, that 3rd pin is instead connected to the - (rounded side of the xt60i). And that allows for the max. 15A for solar charging. So if you are going to DIY a solar charging cable, make sure you get a xt60i female connector, and make a solder jump to the - terminal inside.

@stubones Год назад

I bought the River Pro and I was surprised how well the X boost feature works. It powers my gaming pc with a problem.

@taskelam8937 Год назад

Great video! I have a suggestion for a future tests. For solar applications it's crucial to have a good round-trip efficiency in addition to a good inverter and dc circuitry efficiency. Could you also measure the total input energy in kWh needed to charge a solar generator fully? Putting a power meter between the solar array and the MPPT controller input would help in sizing the array. And while you're at it, why not measure the input energy while charging from AC with the Kill a watt you use for inverter output efficiency tests?

@ChrisHufnagel_Polymath Год назад

Great review on the D2. Thanks for being so thorough. The slow UPS switching is disappointing but it could be fine for applications that don't freak out if power dips for a second. I'll have to think on it a little to see if it is a good fit. Love the Joe Sparks Devil Doll in the back!

@CallaFab Год назад

I have the Ecoflow Delta 1300 and its a great power source. The only thing that I do not like after owning it for a while is the location of all the ports. USB on front with display. 12volt and 110 on the rear. And charging on the side. All that makes it sort of a PITA to use in small spaces. If I ever get another battery generator, it will be a bluetti or Jackery.

i have one with the second battery its very hard to beat $ wise considering battery capacity and type and inverter size. the UPS function i could not care less about. like others said just get a actual UPS... the only thing id like is the ability to add more then 1 extra battery or the ability to add a different batteries via some sort of adapter

@greensavant2573 Год назад

13:28, "So this is not a really good sign", or is it "sine" LOL! Would love to also see "round trip" testing. On the two EcoFlow 1300's I bought on crowd funding, one was 59%, and the other 58%. Pitiful! I bought the 2nd one because mid-campaign they announced that the units could be chained to boost the capacity. However, if you have to put 1278 watts in to only get 741 out, and then "boost" with a 2nd unit, you lose another ~20% of that 741 watts, for a dismal

Nice Review as usual Prof.Hobo! I hope you can do a good test on the Ecoflow powerkits. I have a new 4kw powerkit from Ecoflow that I've not yet installed. In fact the only thing I've done so far is use a wall outlet to charge up the batteries.

@christophercolson4597 Год назад

You can actually charge a smart extra battery thru the Ecoflow Wave. I have a Ecoflow Delta Max Smart Extra battery and I charge my battery with my Wave. Charging the smart extra battery with the Wave works pretty much the same way as the add-on battery for the wave. It will generally charge the smart extra battery at about 600 watts with the Wave plugged into AC. Downside is that it does take a bit longer to charge since you are charging at a lower rate then using a power station. I found it take about three hours to charge the Delta Max Smart extra battery from zero to 100%.

Fortunately my head doesn't explode until 3 seconds without power so the 1-2 seconds that this unit takes to respond is acceptable.

@jasonwomack4064 Год назад

I understand the shortcomings, with trying to keep pricing down. But offering battery expansion then limiting it to one battery seems like an intentional shot in the foot. Having the 1800w inverter and expansion to 4-5kw would probably turn more heads.

@anon5704 7 месяцев назад

Warning for solar users: the Delta 2 cannot charge by solar when the input wattage is not enough. The exact threshold is not clearly defined by the manufacturer but I’ve read about users being unable to charge when solar power is under 20-30 watts; input on Delta 2 will just read 0 watt. This is a problem for users who wish to trickle charge by small solar systems in cloudy or rainy conditions.

@donaldmayfield9159 Год назад

The fact that Ecoflow did use long life LFP batteries in the Delta 2 makes the more than 10 year usable life a reality.

@malifestro3319 Год назад

A couple more weeks until the Vigorpool arrives at my doorstep. While that is a very small company compared to the Ecoflow, I suspect it will quickly find the footing it needs. The biggest downside to it over this is a small inverter. But it has a lot of the same Pros and more. It's quieter and if you need more output capacity they said, hey they probably want a bigger battery too. So I really like the idea that it scales.

@pmurphy12667 Год назад

the problem with all these companies is they don't let someone like yourself give input and develop the best all in one generator out there. They would save themselves so much headache if they allowed you to be a part of their engineering process so we can get a generator that solves all of our needs. Not sure what ecoflow was thinking but I am holding out for that perfect generator that is decent cost, has all the bells and whistles and can be used for anything and everything. Am I dreaming perhaps, but I will wait til lit happens

Love your reviews Hobotech. Was wondering why you have never reviewed the Delta max 1600/2000. Maybe I missed it somewhere but I searched your channel and nothing comes up. I like the Delta 2 but it is little too under powered for my needs. I like the Pecron e2000lfp but I am a little concerned about the company and dealing with any issues that may arose. I've seen some reviews where people are still waiting for a refund a month after the product was returned. Also read something about there is no way to put the unit output on standby so the battery will drain in a couple of weeks with no use. Thank you for all your time and effort.

Im sure that the production ups will be faster.....but I dont need it to be fast. I am using it to power my deep freezer and refrigerator in my garage. Use grid and then switch over to battery when the power goes out. I got it for $899 and the extra battery was on sale for $699. I already have my 600 watts of solar set up...40 volts at 15 amps.....just waiting for delivery. I am replacing my duracell powersource with ups that has failed 3 times with bad inverters. I have my Bluetti eb3a for fast ups anyway.

Thank you for the great review. What about fans noise at e.g. 100 W or 200 W load (e.g. working in small quite office on computer)? How loud is it at small loads? Or when I would be charging it at the camping site with 500W solar - how loud is Delta 2 when charging at 500W? Would it be disturbing for campsites around? Thank you.

Please do an update video on the Delta 2 , the firmware flawlessly fixes the UPS switching! Even overrides a 200 watt AC charge limit to match the draw of a space heater. Very impressed and the new lab feature allow automations that enable you set your charging cycles so for example charge from AC at night when it’s free if you have a solar grid system.

@GiesbertNijhuis Год назад

With the app, you can slow it down, and make the fans quiet.

It would be nice if they started include some sort of high amp DC port

@marcfruchtman9473 Год назад

Thank you for the video review! Is it compatible with any other battery types such as Lead Acid AGM? Lack of ability to act as a UPS nullifies the utility for me.

@kgal1298 Год назад

I was just thinking I would just get another unit than buy their add on battery. Right now I'm looking for a backup for my wifi and fridge if power goes out. Though I do think I'll end up with Ecoflow I'm just trying to determine capacity. I may start with a smaller one to start and add on units later as needed. My main issue is just making sure I can finish my work on a timeley schedule.

Pretty sure I have the same laptop. 2005 Dell Inspiron. It was a great machine. I've got a MacBook now because the customer service was better. But this puppy is 8 or 9 yrs old. Don't know what I'll get next. Suggestions?

Buying two Delta2’s won’t give you 2 x 1000Wh (or rater 2 x 800Wh) - unless you have an extra unit to join them - have a feeling that the sinus waves have to be in phase before you put them in parallel.. So I see the idea about the cheap battery, And I can easily add a charger on an extension cord if I need more chargers. I hope to pick one up tomorrow for a semi-permanent back-up for our refrigerator- but real role will be to charge at cheap rates between 02:00 and 04:00 at night and run air fryer, toaster, other power hungry appliances at ‘rush hour’ where KWh prices are 2-4 times as much as at 02:00

While it seems to be redundant I never trust the solar gen I always have a proper power surge backup plug power supply. The Delta can take care of my surge pro and the surge pro can take care of my Desktop.

Hey Hobo, how does this compare to the Vigorpool 1200? In brief, which would you recommend? Thanks!

@juneel4124 Год назад

Can you do a review on the Anker 757 power station, I've watched dozens of other reviews on the 757 and they are all trash, I guess if you are receiving a product free of charge you don't want to say anything negative.

@worldcomicsreview354 Год назад

I've got a smaller Anker (somewhat confusing product range, and some different products seem to have the same number, it's 262-ish wh with a 300w inverter. There's a "plus" version with something like 250wh and a 350w inverter, and it's a bit bluer). It's robustly built and has a nice diffuse light on the back. Only has an 8mm / USB-C bidirectional port for charging, though. The next model up with a 500w inverter has an Anderson port. So I imagine their top model will be decently put together as well. Also Anker's Solarsaga60 panel is absolute crap. I bought a cheapo LVYuan 120w suitcase that charges it better than Anker's own panel. Also the LVYuan outputs from it's (hard-wired, another plus) 8mm and USB-C at the same time, so you can plug both into the Anker at once for combined charging, theoretically up to the full 120 (though apparently the LVYuan USB-C only puts out 40w), but the most I've ever got is 55w, but my panel is very badly-placed and pretty much never gets full sun on all of it at once.

Would be nice to see a preview of the Anker 767 too. The 757 has been out a while now and there are several favorable reviews on it. The main negative I see on that is the limited solar input of 300W. It would be hard hitting that as the input is limited to 30V and 10A. I know of no single 300W portable panel that would work (the Dokio one is 18V at 15A or thereabouts.) Panels in series would not work as most are 18V+ and there are few 30V 3.3A panels for parallel connections. In fact I think Anker’s own (pricey) 100W panels might be the only ones. This Delta 2 has a similarly disappointing solar input at 500W considering it has an 1800W inverter and up to 3KWh capacity. The Delta 2 efficiency is also low considering Ecoflow’s track record. The Anker 767 uses GaN power switching so it would be interesting to see what efficiency it has.

I bought a delta 2 a month ago and was considering using it as a ups. After watching the video, I was curious if the ups function had improved with the latest firmware update. I updated the delta 2 to the latest firmware via the app ( V1.0.1.134) . To test the cutover, I used an old dell laptop (latitude e6530 with nvdia gpu) which has an external removable battery. Laptop uses about 30w-40w while running. I plugged and unplugged the ac power to the delta 2 multiple times (with the laptop battery removed). The laptop continued playing the video I was testing with no drops or flickers. Also ran a cpu stress test using CPu-z and re-ran the ac cutover. Laptop ran with no issues while on the delta 2. Bluetti180 and 200l were the other two I was considering. Also purchased the delta 2 max and expansion battery (qvc had a great sale for the expansion battery at $799 a few week ago). Hobotech just wanted to thank you for your detailed videos. I watched several of them before jumping into purchasing.

@stevecraig3004 Год назад

Good review, EXCEPT... Ecoflow states in all their manuals that these units(ALL of them) are NOT UPS's. They are EPS's, which means that they will switch over to battery power- with a delay of about 30ms; what I will do is put an actual REAL UPS between the computer and the generator. That way you get the best of both worlds; pass-through power with the generator, lots of backup power for the computer, and instantaneous switching for your computer. Bulletproof. Keep up the good work!

@islandgirl100able Год назад

What does that mean in terms of what I would have to buy and what it would cost! This is way over my head! Thanks

@axisrender Год назад

great complete review as always!!... one Q: Is the ups relay slow response fixable via firmware update? thanks

@HOBOTECH Год назад

Nope. It's a physical relay.

@rogerthornton4068 Год назад

Hobotech I just purchased a ecoflow 700 pro for my van. I have a 200 watt renogy solar panel on the roof and was just told by ecoflow that it is not compatible with my solar panel. I could find no warning of this when I shelled out almost $600.00 for product. I now must purchase another solar generator. The one I have cannot even be used as a backup because it is not compatible with my solar panel. People need to know this when buying ecoflow products.

@dr.diannabolen2971 Год назад

Can you recommend a good way to learn (book, video) about electricity, amps, volts, watts, ac, DC, etc.

@bbffbee7171 Год назад

I would like to know if there is only 150w (below 200w for sure) being drawn from AC output, would any fan of this delta-2 turn on? And, I learn that the AC-charging input can be lowered to 200w,300w... for example, through phone-app. Is it always beneficial to make use of lower-power charging? (say, even 700w, 500w, instead of 1200w.... beneficial to the health of the batteries over time)

@campbellsoup4910 Год назад

What up Doe!? Great Vid as usual HBT!! Question Sir! Delta1000(549) or Delta Mini(599)??

@HansKeesom Год назад

Meanwhile I am a bit in doubt about the fan-noise. When running on or charging the battery I am fine with the fan-noise, when running on AC(in) it shows this does not have a transfer switch but does AC->DC->AC. Which not only is noisy but also inefficient. That is why I installed a real transfer switch at home which uses the Delta 2 as generator in case the grid goes down. This allows me to disconnect the AC-in from the Delta 2, saving an immediate 14 watt. The Delta now is trickle charge from solar to keep it charged. As my grid is rather stable I also turned of AC-out of the Delta 2. I can always turn it on when grid goes down as long as I am home or can connect via the app. That is good enough for me. Regarding EPS, yep, one needs to use a real UPS to keep computers or internet modems running. Connect the UPS into the Delta to have a long term UPS solution. External battery......... the original EF-1500 was and is perfect. They should return to that idea. Having it's own xt60 port, USB-ports and 24 volt terminals........ It is wonderfull

@alanvankirk Год назад

It had promise. I got in on the $999 Cellpowa deal. Hopefully it will be delivered soon. If the bugs are fixed it seems it would give the Delta 2 a run for the money if it was on sale. Will you be retesting the final version of the Cellpowa?
