Even if you don’t have these requirements currently, this does offer future proofing for a significant purchase that you want to last for a long time.
#EF ECOFLOW PORTABLE POWER STATION DELTA FULL#
So theoretically you could charge two of the latest 14” MacBook Pros at full speed at the same time. Both these support a generous 100W of output simultaneously, which is a hugely useful configuration and not something I’ve seen before. Just below are two USB-C power delivery ports. The front has the LCD display, 2 standard 12W USB ports and 2 blue 18W fast charging ports. The display and ports are on the short ends of the unit. The Delta 2 doesn’t have the standard power station configuration. I’ll have some real world examples shortly. Anything from a car fridge for up to 32 hours to an electric grill for just shy of one hour. The power station has a maximum output of 1800W and EcoFlow offers a few examples of what you could run and for how long on their website.
There’s still no waterproof rating so you’ll need to be careful using it outside or invest in their optional waterproof bag. It does feel a little more rugged than other power stations I’ve looked at with large slightly rubberised feet front and rear, that offer at least some protection as you move it around. Like the EcoFlow River Max I reviewed a while back, the Delta 2 is well built, made of mostly hard plastic. A folding handle would have made it even more compact. It’s a fairly compact unit measuring 211 x 400 x 281mm (W x D x H). It’s easy to move around with handles on either side, but it’s light enough to carry with just one handle. The Delta 2 weighs 12 kg – only around 2 kg heavier than the Li-ion based Jackery Explorer 1000 which has a similar capacity battery and only 4 kg heavier than the 576 Wh EcoFlow River Max also based on Li-ion technology. LFP batteries like this weigh more than equivalent standard Li-ion batteries that use NMC or Nickel Manganese Cobalt chemistry, but they support 3000 complete charge cycles compared to 500-1000 cycles for NMC batteries. The Delta 2 has a 1024Wh LFP or LiFePO4 battery and I was expecting it to be much heavier than it is. Apart from the cost of purchasing an additional cable, it can also be a little confusing for new users to understand exactly what cable they need. It’s disappointing that there’s no solar charging cable. There’s no solar charging cable and no protective cover. Inside the box you get the power station itself, a mains charging cable, car charging cable and a DC5521 to DC5525 lead. And towards the end of the article I’ll compare it to other similar power stations I’ve tested. I’ll run through its capabilities and thoroughly test all its claims to help you decide if this is the right power station for you. And the Delta 2 can charge at up to 500W off solar panels alone when mains isn’t available. These power stations are perfect for power cuts, camping, travel and festivals and around the house and out and about to charge all your tech. It’s pretty good value too compared to similar units – you can check the current price down below.
It has a very useful app to control it remotely and is surprisingly portable considering its spec – I can carry it with one hand. The EcoFlow Delta 2 has four 1800W AC outlets, super fast 1200W mains charging, two 100W USB power delivery outputs, and a 1024 Wh long lasting LiFePO4 battery that is expandable up to 3040 Wh.
