    Just got one with a extra battery. The latest firmware updates to 20ms or less transfer time. It is a great unit for power outages, and how you use. I will be connecting two AllPowers SP039's 600w portables to it for portability as others have done with success and do some home load offsetting without doing a grid tie, while also taking advantage of its portability when needed. 1000 ft extension cords etc.

    My delta 2 can run almost anything. Chop saw, welder, shop vac, small 6K BTU window A/C.
    Would love to upgrade to the Pro for the 30amp plug.

    Great video. We invested in the Delta Pro 21,500wh set up with 2 smart generators and a double voltage hub. We have 3600 watts of hard panels that max out solar charging. The smart generators are awesome as well.

    You probably could add three used 200w solar panels and just use gas gen for power tools or recharge on multiple cloudy days...
    Great vid👍🏻

    EcoFlow needs to sent you the Smart generator, it's one of the coolest product they have made if you have a delta batteri, then you only have to think about fueling the generator, the charging will be done when the batteri is about to run low

  • @edwardjanowiak
    @edwardjanowiak 7 месяцев назад +5

    Power station, great description, these products are often called generators, that puzzles me, they don’t generate anything. Best explanation of this product I’ve seen to date. Consist with the rest of your content, keep up it coming, thank you.

    • @riaayo5321
      @riaayo5321 7 месяцев назад +2

      I imagine they're called a "generator" because people tend to think of a generator as a source of power. In the end a gas generator is turning gasoline into electricity, so this turning stored battery power into electricity isn't all that different if you really think about it. Gas gen needs you to put gas in, this needs you to put electricity in from solar or whatever. But they both then supply electricity back out.

    • @NoZenith
      @NoZenith 6 месяцев назад

      They have an integrated charge controller for taking solar energy in so instead of putting gasoline in them to make power you're taking solar and converting into DC power period this is why they're called solar generators and not just battery packs. the benefit is you can also charge them up AC from a generator or a wall outlet.

    • @renegerritsen6178
      @renegerritsen6178 15 дней назад

      It generates electricity just like a diesel generator does. If you don't refuel the diesel generator, it will also stop generating electricity. You need to charge this battery pack to run power off of them, so ideally you would do that with a few PV panels, which are included in certain packages (220W/400W option).

  • @Lightning500
    @Lightning500 4 месяца назад +1

    You should get a ecoflow delta pro and one of their smart generators

  • @ambersmith9683
    @ambersmith9683 6 месяцев назад +1

    Thanks for the video! How do you get your lights/switches and outlets to the Delta 2 so they can be powered? Do they go to an electrical panel and then the Delta 2 powers the panel? Or do they just run through the wall and out somewhere and you plug them into the Delta 2 directly? Thanks for any help on this as I would like to do something similar but that is the part I don't understand fully. Love your stuff!

  • @83glacius
    @83glacius 7 месяцев назад +1

    You should get some big pannels and a proper inverter..I recommend Deye or if you want something more expensive ..Victron..a 3-5 kw would be great .you can have the pannels on the ground set at 45 degrees.

    Love the videos! Little tip on filming your phone - might be easier (and better viewer experience) for you to screen record your phone while you’re filming yourself using your phone and talking about it, and then overlaying the screen recording over your video (maybe off the the side)

    What gauge extension cord do you use to charge them at 1100 watts? Is it safe to use a cord that didn't come with the unit?

    • @alaskacabinadventures
      @alaskacabinadventures  5 месяцев назад

      I use a heavy 12 gauge for my cabin. I bet you could get away with a 14 or even 16 but not at much of a length. For the actually charging I try and use the one that came with it, then the 12 gauge 100ft to the generator.

    @martinc.186 2 месяца назад +1

    The AC converter on that thing draws 1/3 of the capacity and it doesnt charge more than 1300W. And it doesnt even show it you. I was considering it for powering my cottage but if you turn on the AC converter on a full charge, the time left immediatelly drops from 99+ hours to 65 hours. WITH NOTHING PLUGGED IN. I mean if you leave it at your cottage, you loose 0.8kWh just for the converter with no power draw, thats crazy. And you cannot see the power consuption of the station it self anywhere. You have to calculate it each time manually by using the time and capacity left... i mean wtf?

    • @blueman5924
      @blueman5924 7 месяцев назад +1

      depends on the number of your discharge/charge cycles. Maybe it could last 20 yrs.🤷‍♂️

    • @gary860
      @gary860 7 месяцев назад +4

      After 10 years, it goes to 80% battery life so you just keep using. Also technology will change greatly in 10 years.

    I'm not impressed with it. I power my tiny house and it's plugged into the house full time so it always has a full charge. I have a 500 watt heater and low energy lights 100w total and it wont push it. The lights flicker etc. Its embarrassing. Am I missing something with it? I would buy an additional unit an piggy back them together but it wont even handle 700 watt output. I'm afraid it will another waist of money.

    • @alaskacabinadventures
      @alaskacabinadventures  5 месяцев назад

      Doesn’t sound right at all, I’d contact them and see what’s up. You sure the heater is only 500watt? Should be able to push 2000.

  • @dcrosco1458
    @dcrosco1458 7 месяцев назад +1

    All power stations charge really fast when you first get them after 6 months they slowed a lot. dont have to believe me but if you have a smart phone that is the same as a charge station. Smart phone battiers start to die off after 6 months. This is the same with all EV's

    • @dcrosco1458
      @dcrosco1458 7 месяцев назад

      Yes I do have a power station and I have had it for 2 or 3 yrs and I love it. Save me money in my computer room because I have USB lights I off of it.

      LiFePo Batteries have better longevity than typical traditional lithium-ion batteries that you would find in your telephone that had been so common for the last decade or so. Old school batteries have about an 800 cycle average lifespan before they dropped to about 80% and lifepo batteries Are good for a few 1000 cycles before they drop to 80% efficiency period the downsides are they tend to be heavier for the same energy density and they don't Function freezing temperatures as well. Lifepo don't have the issue with catastrophic failure leading to exploding batteries either... big plus!

  • @winstonwolff
    @winstonwolff 5 месяцев назад +1

    He says he charges up 2048 wh by driving into town with a 12 volt cig lighter? Or pulls out a " little " solar panel to charge LOL😂😂😂. @ 120 watts through the lighter it would take 15-18 hours or constant driving ( not idling ) to fill it up. If by a 100 watt solar panel ( 60 watts real world average ) on an " average " sunny day it would take 1.5 days to charge. Unless you have a high current alternator or 12-24-36 volt up converter Or if you maxed it out somehow with 500 & 500 ( 750 real world )watts solar on your vehicle + car charging at the same time on an average sunny day it would take 3 hours. Sure is a lot of driving time per day. When do you have time to be a youtuber & wilderness survivalist, tree cutting and hunting for food etc. Those take a lot of time out of your day. This is how I smell B.S.. I have 2 of these so I kind of know what i'm talking about.

    A Giant Chinese battery/generator company gives away a few FREE generators. These "reviewers" all look very legit, but seriously...are they really legit? It's almost disgusting. ALL of these reviews come from people who were given generators for their review. yeah these things are cool, especially the Ecoflow Ultra, but in reality you need a gas, diesel, or propane generator for any long term needs...more than a day a two. Get a duel fuel, run it on propane, and you won't have the problem of gas sitting for a long time. Imagine, you buy a predator, Westinghouse, or champion 12500 duel fuel for 1500 max. Done. These power stations are just a shiny object. Good for Van Life, I own two Ecoflows, but they are not serious for home backup.
