Kubota M7060 will change the way I work off grid FOREVER!
These are junk ! Wasted 1k on mine 😊 so happy I had to learn this valuable lesson NOT
So negative 😂 why buy a new one to sell it ? Listen to yourself 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It turns off when there isn't a significant draw, after several minutes. Read your manual maybe.
How did you isolate the pipe from the canvas? I have the same setup and dony want to melt it
These Ecoflow power stations are not meant to be used as a full solar system, these things are designed to fill a power gap in emergencies.
This video is extremely strange, send help
Pecro e3000lfp. affordable and the expandable batteries are more useful
If you ever have to move the panels, vertical mount bi facial, 40 snowfalls, never cleaned snow, coming up on my annual panel cleaning this month. I get the highest pv in winter, 465w makes 569w. My pv2 2790w would get a minimum of 460w in that weather and 780w when it stopped snowing, with snow and sun 3400w. Numbers are good and no more panel cleaning.

Good idea EcoFlow delta pro 3 and ecoflow smart generator 4000 (dual fuel) test it out on RUclips video and EcoFlow delta pro 3 extra battery
No lithium battery is going to work at minus 20 Degree weather That's why the BMS powered down. All you needed to do was warm it up in your car or home. Mike
Even their new DP3 and Ultra have a limit of 150 VOC which really sucks. Totally limits my options to utilise my 2,180 watt array.
Mine doesn't shut off by itself. I've used it for off-grid for over 2 years.
My River 2 does the same thing on DC.
Settiiings / ac timout / never
Tive um problema desse mexendo no aplicativo e apertei o botão de desligar sem querer sendo que ele alimentava o meu roteador então eu tive que sair do trabalho pra ir até em casa pra religar o equipamento
It's the latest update that causes the problem. I have 2 delta 2 models, one is updated and does the same problem, the other one I didn't update works perfectly.
They should rename the brand itto EcoFlaw
I think your issue is "Device Timeout" settings. After 12hrs, if nothing has pulled power from the unit, it shuts itself off based on this setting, which can be disabled. I changed mine to 24hrs and now it doesn't shut off. It can be disabled as well...
Não é não! O AC desliga sozinho mesmo que você nunca desligue a peça.
I had that setting disabled. I’ve since sold my EcoFlow setup and got a different system.
@@MapleOffGridwhat system did you get?
They have serious problems with their firmware. We run 2 DP’s, 4 EB’s and 2 smart gens. We are on an old version of the firmware that is working correctly. Version .61
They trash
I watched a video about someone used a inverter to take a gas generators a/c power converted it to dc power then plugging it into your solar port charging the Delta Pro at 1600 watts. Good option when there is no sun available I purchased the inverter. It works well. It was only $135. A much better option that eco generators.
Where is the unit when it is being used? If in an unheated area, at minus 20, that's below its operating range and no telling what will happen.......
Have had 3 Delta Pro units and all 3 failed at the solar input. I returned one and that was the 3rd failure. I repaired both myself along with a stern warning from Ecoflow about their warranty. Like these 100 lb devices are easily shipped.
I bought that thing, what a nighmare. I traded it for some dental work when they sent me a new one.
I got one. Did you get it with the Kubota shock ride? I did, but didn't turn it on for a few weeks, I forgot I ordered it. I was bouncing around all over the place. I turned the dial to on outside the cab, and couldn't believe the difference. Great tractor. the way my 84" box scaper was set up, if I'm not careful it will flip up 90 degrees and break the top ram.
Could it be that it sucks for the first minute because you have set the max charge limit to 50%? The input graph seems to suggest that. If you want more solar input you might connect a 12/24/48 V battery to the xt60 input of the EcoFlow and charge that battery with a MPPT controller. In case of 24 or 48 Volt you do want a low voltage protection for the battery to prevent it from discharging to deep. If one of your MPPT is like the Victron 100/20 you can even use it internal settings for the loadport to protect that battery from being discharging to much. I do this alread for my River600 Pro once I started to have higher voltage panels then what that could handle. This setup has the added benifit that you can disconnect the Delta Pro and use it elsewhere and still have a place for the energy generated. And it also allows for low amp charging of the Delta Pro, allowing for longer and thinner cables.
I don't know anything about those log hauling operations but I do know from pulling freight doubles that we always want the lead trailer to be the heavier trailer. It looks like on your combo that it was the rear trailer that was heavier. Can you explain that?
I cannot, that’s how the driver wanted it. I believe due to the load restrictions this time of year.
@@MapleOffGrid Hmm, interesting. I hope the driver knows that you don't want the tail wagging the dog. Thanks.
Why anyone would destroy their land like this is beyond me
Not destroying at all. Healthy forest management.
On the Delta 2, i suppose Delta Pro also has this feature called AC always On located in to Lab Feature option. You might wanna try it out. 5:20 And i believe its user fault, you should buy a system which can supply energy to your house with full loads.
It has been set to always on forever. It does not work! It’s a common issue. It supplies plenty of power for a small off grid house just does not charge fast enough with the 1.6kw max input
Its just about wrong calculation. Since you have Ecoflow system i think go for another Delta Pro and 1.6kw panels. so 7.2kwh * 90% efficiency = around 6.5KWH per system. so 2 Delta Pro and 2 extra batteries might fit your need else you ll have to buy another 2-4 smart batteries for cloudy back up. OR sell those for wall mounted hybrid inverter, rack mount batteries and more panels? I tried Growatt SPF5000ES and 2 48V 100Ah batteries in series for a constant load 500 watts, it gives me 12 hours without solar panels.
From a timber stand point it good to open up canopy for the smaller, more desirable species. Wildlife thrives on changing forests. Grouse love those clear cuts.
100% agree! thats why Im harvesting oak specifically, Im a maple syrup producer and want a bigger canopy on the maples to produce more sap every spring.
Got mine done last year took made enough to pay my property taxes for 3 years it came back thick great for the wildlife
Looks good to me. Only thing I’d do differently is drive the Skidder around the last day and stomp the brush a little flatter.
its really not bad. couldnt do that, ground went to shit way to fast. such an odd winter
Did you get paid upfront before the cutting started. I logged ( a one man operation ) and I divided the acreage into small parcels say 1-5. After section 1 was completed I walked the cut with the landowner to make sure he was satisified with it before going to the second section. I also took the owner to see previous cuttings and meet with the landowner's to see if their were any complaints they had. I pulled the entire top out ( hardwood ) and anything less than 3 inches for ( firewood sales ) was either put in controlled burn piles if the space permitted or if not it was ran through a chipper unless the landowner wanted it for himself. As long as you are happy with the results Congrats.
No did not get paid up front, thats not too common around here. I have done a lot of work with them over the past years though. Im quite happy with things. Its hard to drag the oak tops out as they're so wide, but I'll use the all. Not fun trying ot put those small bent up things on the log truck either.
@@MapleOffGrid Back in the 80'S I sold my high end logs to Columbia Hardwood in Canada. They trucked it for free but I had to load their trailers. Are they still in business?
@@frankszlachetka6382 Im not sure, I don't deal with that end of things. The buyer for these also hauled for free and we had to load
Ecoflow support is dismal!
I would pull that switch and wire in a toggle switch if it happened once.
One reason I went with a bigger system, the power stations do not seem to have the charging capabilities for 100 days of clouds. Most advertise 60 amp charge, ok that is 3kw, but they can expand battery to 72kw, nice but charging at 3kw only takes 24hours from 0 to 100 soc. If you plan to expand on a power station, make sure you can charge it in under 5 hours. Any all in one inverter with an 8k PV input and enough panels the generator should collect dust. Even 8k pv in clouds that is closer to 1.6kw or maybe 8kw a day . Past August I knew nothing about solar or wiring, a lot easier that I thought to diy.
A leaf/snow blower might clean up the remainder. If desired.
Ok now Insee you are just pumping negative videos about this Delta Pro and they change each time. You situation is very specific and rare even for off grid setups. Please update your firmware it helped me and be balanced to be fair. Use the warranty if something is wrong too.
It’s the Firmware may want to update, IMHO. Your is a very specific situation where you need WiFi remote access. Would be very rare for normal people, especially with the firmware update the auto restarts on Solar Input if I understand correct.
I have 2 EcoFlow products…. NEVER EVER AGAIN!!!!!! Waste of money. Unreliable products!
I recently installed the Ecoflow ultra. I did have one issue where the inverter started flashing all kinds of lights but the app displays worked perfectly. That night Ecoflow downloaded new firmware which I installed the next morning. Since then I have done everything to try to create a similar problem. The system seems to be bomb proof.
You need to give that DP some breathing room. They vent out the side you got against the wall.
It’s by no means right against the wall. There’s at least 3” of air flow around the side of it.
Check settings. AC timeout=Never
Makes no difference. It is set to that.
A suggestion: when changing buckets to forks etc extend your tilt cylinders all the way out, then you can see better to the hooks on the attachment. I have larger tractors than you but have a few hours on a 7060 and found it worked best for me. good video
Log truck has some wide axles.
Hey I know you! Why hasn’t RUclips put your vids in my feed? Anyhoo, that is a bummer that this is happening. I’ve had some weird voltage discharge issues with my Renogy setup this winter. I was thinking of making a vid about it and pinging you on the forums. As far as EcoFlow setups are concerned, I have been buying some of them to see if they are something good to move to in the future. Sorry to hear you are having problems!
They won't get much money for those small logs ,anything less than 10 " in diameter will juat be pallet grade logs. Be worth more in firewood.
What’s your average winter daily kWh used? My tiny home with 600 watt electric heat used 12kwh on the max days.
Get a basic UPS (uninterruptible power supply) to run your router/internet/wifi. Also, sounds like you have all of your eggs in one basket Having been off grid 24 years we can tell you that's not a good place to be. Build in some redundancy. We have two inverters, 4 charge controllers/arrays, two water pumps, etc.
I do. It only lasts a few hrs after power goes off. You don’t exactly expect and keep checking that the EcoFlow is running as it should. It also doesn’t send notifications that the ac has clicked off so pretty much useless.
