      I feed my delta 2 with 2 x 285 watt amerisolar polycristaline panels. IT delivers 420 to 480 wats easily. One advise, buy rather delta 2 Max, because of Higher invertor Power so you Can use IT with laundry machines.

Have a 10'x20' detached garage and going to build a temp insulated wall in the middle and have a 10'x10' escape AC room during blackouts. Just bought the delta 2 and the 220w panel and doing some tests. Plan to upgrade and get another battery and panel next year as well as a 2kw predator generator to use as a backup and supplement a few hours a day.

    Hey wondering why you don't plug the Mr Cool directly into the EcoFlow? Do you know if you did plug into the ecoflow if the app would allow the battery to run down while only drawing from solar until a minimum battery set point?

      @tgbatg  2 месяца назад +1

      True, technically it’s the only thing connected. So I do use the energy management feature to do what you mentioned.
      The reason it’s not direct wired to EcoFlow is because when it was first installed it was installed to the main panel. Only after purchasing the EcoFlow did I have the thought to power the ac from it

    If you had a Delta 2 Max you would need to upgrade the panels going in. Or to save $ you could go with your current panels in series in to one in put and then a couple of larger panels in to the other.
    We don't have such Air Condition needs in the UK but it is always interesting to see how other people use their power stations and solar.

      I installed 4 mini splits in my house . I chose 110v units as they are only 9k btu . 9k and 12k will have choices of either 110v or 220v .anything above 12k btu will be only 220v . They run nonstop regardless of 110v or 220v . Mini splits are designed to run nonstop . They ramp up power to cool down a room then reduce power to maintain . My mini split goes as low as 110-150 watts to maintain room temp . Very efficient . Going from central ac to mini split my power bill lowered by $120 month in Florida summer .

      @@Robert_H_Diver not for inverter mini splits in cool mode . You do not want to shut them off then back on anyways . I did so manually thinking that would save power . All it did is increase humidity in the room . When cooling it gets really cold . If you shut them right down adding warm air quickly from shutting down. It becomes a wet mess . The next time you turn the mini split on it will shoot into the room wet humid air . I called up 3 different mini split companies all saying unit staying on in cool mode is intentional and necessary for those very reasons . Only in heat mode does it shut down when set temp is reached .
      When i do power off my mini split i turn on anti mildew mode which will dry the unit and i will run a dehumidifier to soak up all the moisture from the drying mode . If mini split where to cycle on and off like traditional central ac it would promote mold growth .

    Did you ever consider using the built in features of the Delta 2 to automize the power? You can set it up to when the batteries get to 20% then use wall power to charge it up to Ex:50%, this will continue until the solar charges the batteries back to over 50%. You will never need to manually switch the split ac from sources. You can also attach the Delta to your battery bank via solar to keep the system fully charged.

    wholly cow about $6000 investment to run an ac in a little room for 1/2 day. Or a 650 watt frig for 2 to 4 hours. I can get a dual fuel 500 inverter and run 4 or 5 of my frigerator/freezers and get another one for a couple ac units at 1000 watts per and buy 5000 worth of propane. I get it the sun makes your energy but have to say the math doesn't make any sense. Every review of these solar generators are done by folks who get the products for free. I love the way the industry is going and at some point they will be there but at this time they are silly. You can drop like 50K on the Ultra's and still you don't have near the power for a hot Texas day with a 5 ton and 3 1/2 ton. Fossil Fuels make the world go around.

      A heat pump is 4 times as efficient as a heater. No building runs AC off batteries. Hospitals use diesel generators.

My Wave2 was free in every calculation. The conditions I can live in without sacrifice are mind boggling. Versus a room full of Apple laptops and users that still choose Apple. Wild.
