- I love the EcoFlow Delta's charging ability. It's crazy fast. But it has some things that really bug me as well. These are my top 3 ugly gripes about the EcoFlow Delta 1300.

I appreciate the input from everyone my concern is that this guy needs to go to the doctor and get a stress test done to find out why he's so out of breath.
Cocaina
Exactly. I'm 74 yrs old and don't get out of breath moving my Delta around like that.
Some ppl just get nervous on camera lol be nice
Exactly.... because it really is not that serious when you're not going to be using it for everyday use. Use it for what it is meant for and then put it back in storage. Because you can't complain like he's doing when you don't have power at all....
Cocain is hellava drug
Damn that Delta is really kicking your ass...
I've used my delta for about a year now in my van. It's my only power source and I use it daily. I think this guy is being a bit nitpicky. The fan is not annoying. Sure, it turns on, but relatively quiet. And it's intermittent, not constant. Electronics need to stay cool. And I'd rather deal with a little hum, rather than extreme heat and possible damage over time. As far as the 3 grounding ports for 110v, let me know when you have more than 3 grounded units plugged in at once. It'll never happen. Even if you did, you still have 3- 2 pronged outlets that you use on top of the 3 grounded. The Jackery only has 3 outlets in total. You're going to exceed the wattage limits before you use all of that. And I can power my 1750 watt microwave with the Delta. Dont even dream of it with the jackery. The 2 handles are so you can use 2 arms to transfer the unit. Higher battery capacity equals more weight. Just like another other battery. The jackery has its uses, but if you only have one battery in your home or vehicle, spend the extra $ and get the Delta. Stop whining.
Hi Thomas, how has the battery capacity held up for about 2 years now? Any worries that you will be going through that cycle limit for this battery chemistry?
🤣 Thats your problem with it? I just bought one thinking this would make me regret it....I can deal with a loud fans when there is NO ELECTRICITY!
I bought a flashlight once only to find out later when the batteries died I had to go all the way back to the rear and unscrew the back and replace the battery,, what a day that was !!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Spot on👍
I understand port placement but the noise of the device is nothing compared to a gas generator which you can have anywhere in your home. The fan kicks in because the inverter is on and it actually can consume up to 15w just having it on and that's what I hate about the Delta because it doesn't take that into account so it will throw off the estimate.
If your going to be pumping 1200w into this thing to charge that fast then the fans are going to have to keep things cool also in a tear down it was shown that the fans are quiet but the noise comes from the fans blowing air over the heat sink so unless you want a bigger less compact device sacrifices must be made.
Totally agree on much quieter than a gas generator. I have a Honda EU2200i, and that is a quiet generator, but still no where near a battery powered one like the Delta. Thanks for the 15W tip, I'll test that out soon.
I am not worried about these issues. Was without power today and this power station would have been a life saver. Ordered it once I got to work where I had power.
Wow this guy has some issues ...wow the outlets are all the way on the other side that's unbelievable....🤯
No more coffee for you mister. ;)
Just ordered one & then I thought . . . "what if", ? ? Am so happy with your complaints
Me too going to power a 200w "garden" for 18 hours a day what do you think about this
You are not being fair, The function of the Delta is way more important than how it makes you feel. The fans make it the fastest charging unit on the market. The handles make the 45 pounds easy to carry or move. And the plugs are that way because you don't need to power everything in the house at once. Its a design safe guard to keep you under the 1300 watts use limit. (3300 i know, but that peak).
I LOVE the Delta. It’s an incredible piece of technology. This is just my gripes video 😀
I agree. Must be raining.
I am thinking of buying one but am concerned that it can only do 800 charge. cycles. What do you think about that?
@@joeblow1942 I think that depends on how you use it and charge it goes and how often will I need it to go. It doesn't completely die after 800 complete charge cycles it just degrades them to I believe 60 percent and how often am I going to completely drain it and fast recharge it. For a weekend warrior I'll let solar work for me. Simple ac and dc on 2 different sides makes since to me.
@@mandyvieni331 I'll be using the Ecoflow Delta 1300 in a Sienna minivan while traveling and will be charging it with solar. It's unlikely I'll use more than 40% to 50% of the batteries capacity every day. I understand that charging from 0% would be considered a full charge cycle but do you know how they figure charge cycles when the solar is topping it up every day?
People complaining about man and his gripe video...lol .like what did u expect besides his take on what makes him gripe? Lol..people want to hear u love something after they spend over $1000 on it. Like why y'all need to watch a video to justify your purchases? 😂
Bro, one of his main points didn't make any sense to me at all. You mean to tell me this guy didn't see where the ports and plugins were before spending 1000s on the damn thing? I smell b.s. Company sponsored hating from what I see.
oddest review I have ever seen. lol!!!! im over here giggling at you...good thing I love the sound of a fan
I hope the 20 years I have spent coping with the soft and cushy life style of the military has prepared me for such stressful and demanding situations of civilian life. I hope I will be able to handle the intense stress civilians have to endure!
PS, I wonder if he complains about having to button ALL the TINY buttons through so many holes up and down the front of his long sleeve shirt? Life is tough, we get winded and then we die from the massive stress of life!
I just received mine and do not have the issue of the fans starting by just powering up the ac ports. My fans don't engage until I put a load on or charge it on ac. I wonder if that is an update that was done or something.
Who's your meth dealer?
How to review a product on cocaine?
I actually prefer the AC on the back with the DC in the front (personal preference i suppose) Having the two handles makes it easier to carry with two folks (useful for when the wifey and I are going to a walk-in site but feel like glamping). The fans being that loud is an issue (especially with no draw) and the grounding pin weirdness is not great. That being said: I like it overall.
This seems like knit picking honestly. I just bought this model, the fans no longer kick on with the AC inverter, only during high loads. The only complaint I have is the relatively short battery cell life of 800 cycles.
When that comes into play several years down the road (assuming it's just used for occasional weekend camping trips) the battery technology available at that time will probably be so much better that many of us will want to upgrade anyway. There will probably be lots of this generation (pun intended) of "solar generators" available at yard sales & swap meets for dirt cheap at that time.
You will be nice and gray, not salt and pepper, before you reach your 800 cycles. Even after that it only drops to 8o% charge, and that will last you. This isn't a lead acid battery 😂🔋😂
@@kerry5972 That is incorrect
All Ecoflow batteries are 80%

Hey Bro, first time on your channel and I'm concern that your out of breath sitting and moving the delta around. Hit the gym and work out cause the delta pro is coming and that thing will smash you. Concerned Viewer.
I also have one of these Delta chargers, I do agree about the fans, not so much about the noise but about why they come on when there is no load on the unit at all. and in addition to that this unit uses a lot of power just because you have the power turned on. Maybe I will check tonight what percentage of power it does use just to be on. However I could not disagree more about the placement of the power plugs, I love them being on the back of the unit just like the Bluetti's, I don't want to see the power cords, I have my unit on a shelf or under a cabinet so I only want to see the controls. My units are tied into my house wiring system so I never have to move them, So if you have one of these units do it right and tie it into the circuits you want to power. My would you keep moving it around all the time ??? However, if you are not up on how circuitry works maybe you should ask a knowledgeable electrician. I should do a video on how to do this. Take care. Sparky.
Your gripes all seem a little petty. I will say that depending on location that the fan noise could be a little annoying but I think that would be in exceptional circumstances.
HELP - How do you repair EcoFlow 1300 solar panel/carport (DC) input? it is not charging, while the AC side does? Assume fuse blown. May have inadvertently reversed solar panel input into charger...HELP! Thank you....cpc
Did you push the activation button on?
I ordered this from HSN w/solar panels when it was a TS. It arrived with a cracked & broken handle in the middle of it, from the factory. The clear proof that it wasn't damaged in shipping is that the broken part of the handle was outside of the black bag that contained the unit. The inside black box was also damaged, one side wasn't glued properly so the handle of the box was torn. The silica bag seam had split leaving loose silica in box. All of this made it very difficult to even get it out of the 2 boxes because of the weight & being hard to grip. Eco Flow doesn't seem concerned that they sent out a damaged item. They wants me to return a 30 lbs item to them before replacement can be sent. I'll push HSN for a better solution. I'm so disappointed & outraged! I'm undecided on returning to due physical limitations on lifting it, but it's too much to pay to keep a damaged product...from the factory! If this is any indication of quality control, what does it say about the build quality & the durability of this unit? Is this more Chinese made junk? Keep or return? One more gripe....Plastic handles for 30 lbs of weight...be careful!!! It also needs to be designed with casters.
This guy should get a life! This unit is terrific!
It is terrific! I love my Delta 1300. But it ain't perfect.
ironically this is the best ecoflow promotion video i've seen , those three things that bug him are so worriless 🤣buy a treadmill or something intead!
Ports and connections are all over the device...solution: buy a small heavy duty lazy Suzanne (turntable) off Amazon for under $30.
You should only hear the fan when it's charging or the output is really getting up there..solution: you may want to utilize the warranty that came with it.
The fan can be a little annoying....solution: focus on the need...its all background noise when necessities are up and running.
Jackery is a nice generator....but Delta just checks off to be better between the two.
Update, he died after this review. RIP
Ok, either this a setup or he clearly works for the opposition. First off, Why oh Why are you complaining about the fan noise? You are indoors?? Hello! This thing is meant to be used in an emergency or more importantly it was designed to meet off grid power needs, where you don't hear the fans unless you hold a freaking mic up to it, ( no doubt powered by the EFDELTA). Come on guys. 😁😂
Okay pardner, you should take a chill pill. I love my Ecoflow Delta, and I'm thinking maybe Jackery is paying for this 🤔.
Wtf?
If you don't need a lot of power, lower power units solve most of these problems (lighter, less fan noise, fewer outlets but mostly on one side). The fans are something you need when you have a ~1000W charger and an 1800W inverter in an enclosure.
What a cry baby. I don’t think I’m going to care to much in a hurricane
Mann, you are obviously disappointed and flustered 😫
Bro the tray ontop isint for lines....
Man you're breathing hard from the get go. Should have caught your breath before you started recording. You said you should have drawn down the unit a little first, that's a que to stop and do it right. Seems you just wanted to rip this one out and be done with it. One wonders if your evaluation was done in this same manner.
Once he picked it up he was done 🤣 he must be a cigarette smoker
I wish the unit can charge via the car's alternator.
It can and takes up to 11 hours to fully charge.
It would be awesome if they had an app to not be powering up stuff manually and monitor fan speeds
It looks like a portaloo with an alarm clock.
Your points are absolutely true, it makes noice even there is going only 35 watts out, thats less than a smartphone.
But I want to share my problem with the ecoflow 1300. In the morning when the sun starts to shine, the watts going in wont go further then 31Watts . So if im not there it won't load. If i pull the plug out and in again it goos strait to 150 or what it should be at that moment. I have an 300 watt panel that goos strait in the delta. and it worked fine for 2 years. The helpdesk keeps on telling me with a lot of technical stuf that the panel is the problem... it's hard for me to belive. the panel is not a smart thing. the delta is. ruclips.net/video/Dump4HlL1ow/видео.html for my problem. can someone help me?
First world problems.
You just hate ecoflow 1300 viewers can see that you work for another solar co we can see that...
Why are you out of breath or breathing hard during the video ? don’t let small things get to you man chill out 😌
Total exaggeration with the heavy breathing, though. 😆
All I can say is take a pill and get over it !!
Dude go to the gym. ha
these problems are for the lazy ones
what i dont like is being in a black out in a black out none of that matters as long as the lites turn on fast so quit complaining a gas generator is much louder besides it charges fast those other generators will take all day to recharge.
Bros complaining bout the fans bro almost all generators are loud it’s actually way better than a gas powered one those are loud asf
Do not buy. The delta I ordered needed a firmware update right out of the box. Ecoflow will not return it and I was told 4 weeks for a firmware update.
Send it to my Address
ADHD,🤯🤡
Dude...the ecoflow has an 1800 watt inverter with 6 AC connections! It needs massive airflow so they had to put it on the other side. Sounds like you dont know anything about science, technology or math so I will give you a pass on your goofy ideas.
Thanks, so even on sale for $1,000 it's not for me!
