Is this lifep04? Battery? I will be living in my Prius 2010 soon. And I've decided to get a River 2 Pro instead cuz 768w. Not really sure about my power intake yet. But I am curious about the delta series. Although they look bulky.
I think that’s brave and awesome! I heard that the 800w alternate inverter should be coming out with an adapter so that you can use the river 2 pro, I could be wrong but that could be awesome for your situation eventually ❤
The Delta 2 is just a tad bit bigger than the River 2 Pro. It's also LiFePo4 and expandable unlike the River 2 Pro. If you can find a good deal and we're talking about $100 or less difference I'd always recommend going Delta. Though I do hate the AC and USB ports being on complete opposite sides of the machine!
Yes, in a number of ways. The simplest way is to just plug it into the cigarette lighter. That would provide you with about 100 watts in. That would take 10 hours to charge it. Another thing you can do is buy a pure sine inverter for $100 or so, connect it to your battery, and it'll charge up to whatever wattage the inverter is. So if it's 600, it would charge around 600 watts (more likely 500). The problem with the inverter route is this... it can cause damage to your alternator because it won't throttle itself. It will tax your alternator to get that full 500 watts. The fastest and safest thing to do is buy a dc-dc charger. EcoFlow has an 800 watt one on sale for $399 today actually and this would connect to your battery as well, but, this will only pull from the leftover power that's available from your alternator. These cost more, but will save you the headache of needing a new alternator. With the EcoFlow charger you can also use the power station to charge the car battery or even jump it if you needed to. Hope this helps!

They did say that, but I haven't heard anything just yet!
Can you use your car to charge the power station?

@@EcoSolarReviews thank you!
Delta 2 is fo fitty nine right now on the ‘zon. Can’t beat that.
I thought you did this already?!
I did! I'm going to redo some old ones and put them on a ranking sheet. Just in case people want to see it all be uniform.
@@EcoSolarReviews thanks that’s awesome 🙏😎❤️
