You are the very best out of many generator review pros and are actually relatable. You apply real world examples and do not just try to impress professionals (who already own generators) with how many numbers you can spout out. Thank you for teaching. Many of us are new to this, and do not want to waste money or regret poor choices.
Wow thank you 🙏🏼 😀👊🏼
@@johnnysweekendsSir, did I see you using a propane unit to charge this one? I am wondering about the type of connection from the propane unit (Champion?). to the Pecron ... like which plug(s) would be used for that. I am moving to an area where solar may not work well. I am a grandma caretaking for a spouse, and need advice. Thanks loads.
@deawallace3584 yes I’m using a 3/8 hose to my on boards tanks. Which some are a little different depending on model of rv
@@johnnysweekends I am asking how to plug the hose from the Champion that runs on propane into your Pecron to charge it? I sure thought I saw you hooking those two together. I am shopping for what will best serve our needs. Thx.
@deawallace3584 the champion generator is running of propane and then just charging the power station with the cord from pecron
Good video! Remind your viewers to turn off their ad blockers before clicking on links, or you won't get credit. A way to prevent this is if you can get a special code from the company in question, but with bigger companies, I imagine it would take some doing.
Hmm I didn’t know about this 👍🏼
I have 5 of there power stations this will be my next one. They make a good product and are so reasonable in the pricing. I also love they realize we all want to charge with solar not our walls. I see a lot of power stations that have like 65 volt max on solar which is ridiculous.
I know, anything under 80 volts is really a turn off. Honestly 100v solar input should be a minimum. Lower volts and higher amps creates more heat and needs thicker wire and larger fuses. More potential for fire. Love they did 150v input 👍🏼
And it qualifies for 30% tax credits. Win Win
@johnqcitizen9177 yes!!
thanks for you comments which helps people like me trying to learn what we can use without regretting a purchase. I learn alot from comments like yours.
@@johnmal5975 I originally bought one 3600lfp with 4 300 watt panels, then decided to go all in and bought two more 3600lfp’s and two 3000lfp’s.
Thank you!
Still have a couple older Ecoflow, but purchased a few e1500 last Xmas for my kids. Great powerful little unit, and not too heavy.
I can't wait to get mine with solar panels. Later on I'll add more batteries. Solid unit for sure.
Tysm for your discount code Brother! Just wanted to let you know ❤
👍🏼😀👊🏼
Not very familiar with this product, but I believe you did a great job of pointing out the pros and cons of this unit. Not bad at all for the price. Enjoyed the watch as always. Great job!
Thank you! Check out the new Ballast mount video. Power rack power field is featured 👍🏼
Regarding pass-through charging: You mentioned that charging using the 30A cable (3200W) disables the inverter, so there is no pass-through using the 30A cable. You also showed that when charging using the 15A cable (1800W) that pass-through charging does work. However, do you know if you can run a 30A load (3600W output) while charging at 15A (1800W input)? Pecron told me that this works, but after seeing this well done video I am not sure they understood my question.
Pecron continues to offer solid products at a great price. Thanks for the review!
Agree, they are up and coming…!! Was definitely impressed and price is insane!
Good to see some competition for the bigger name units. Pecron is on my radar now. 🤠👍🇺🇸
Agree, this is a solid unit and in the end it will help us all.
Thanks for the review solid work. Keep them coming
You’re welcome 👊🏼😀
Thanks Johnny. Very competitive unit at this price.
For sure!
Already got the 1500lfp. Loving it. Can’t wait til the 3600lfp comes in.
I think it will be a very popular seller!
@@johnnysweekends Already love the 1500lfb. I’m gonna love love the 3600lfp.
Would it be interesting to do a tear-down video of the E3600LFP?
But not destructive, that would be a shame, then re-assemble.
Not really most of these are pretty good and I have seen a couple torn down and it’s not to impressive to most people.
Great review, you must be kin to the Hulk to be able to lift that thing, I'm sticking to the midsize units. Best regards!
Proper lifting techniques 😂👍🏼
Thanks Mr. Weekends. That Pecron is very versatile with all its functionality, only concern is durability. But with a 5-year warranty that should be a non-issue.
So many many users have great luck with the units. Sure there are failures but that’s with any companies products. It just happens. But over so far many are doing great.
Ummm they charge you the shipping to return it 😂
@@jamesdean7756i will look that up . To me if true , it says a company does not stand behind there product . If any product has a valid claim on a product and needs to be shipped back you should never have to pay to ship said product back
@@jamesdean7756i just mentioned in previous comment that this is something i always avoid . I just saw your comment now . I really hope that is not true as that is a huge sign a company does not stand behind their product . Now to return because you change your mind , sure , you pay to send it back . If you have to send it back for a valid warranty claim you should never have to pay to ship .
@@jamesdean7756thanks for that. Makes this a hard no.
I have been thinking about ecoflow 3600, ultra or 3 but i'm in Norway so those last two haven't arrived yet here, but i bet the price would be insane for just buying these.
If they keep the price this low in europe as well i would seriously be thinking about too buy this one with full capacity. 15kwh are insane.
You could charge the solar panels on the day, i wish you could charge time you could set up for ac if the prices for electricity are low you could charge that, but if it's expensive you could turn it off and charge it with solar panels instead, but i bet the next generation would have that, but just having simply a huge backup are gold today specially when we are seeing so much trouble the world having today.
But simply instead of charging if it's about 80 cents it's normal these days you could also charge it when the prices are at 40 cents, and then use it when the prices are high.
Could easily made the bills half just doing that.
A note about charging the EP3000 expansion battery. It does not come with a charger. BUT! I have their little LFP600 station, and the charging brick from that *does* marry up with the EP3000. If your components arrive days apart like mine did, you can charge the expansion batteries to 100% like this for easier/better integration.
I believe the EP3000 comes with an accessory pack right ? All the cables?
I had a hard time finding if that was all extra
@@johnnysweekends Oh it sure did! They're awesome with the extras. I have to make sure to leave the Owner's Manual inside to keep track of which pack goes with which component heh. None of the Aviation-style connectors were good for wall charging, however. I got 4: solar, Anderson, barrel connector, and 12V. My 1500LFP that the battery is married to doesn't use a charging brick. BUT the LFP600 does. I haven't looked but I assume one could purchase the charging brick separately, and it conveniently matches the 400W max Input. Depending on its price though, your viewers may want to look at just buying the LFP600. This wouldn't have been an issue except my LFP1500 was already fully charged when the extra battery arrived a few days later. I needed to fully charge the battery too, the instructions want both components to be as close as possible.
One big note that’s worth calling out - E3600LFP supports a lower maximum charge point for AC, effectively allowing it to operate as a solar system with grid backup in the event that solar power dips over a couple overcast days. Ecoflow has a similar feature that I use on my Delta 2 and IMO all power stations should have this.
Good callout on the 30 amp AC input disabling AC output - like Ecoflow DP3, seems the high power AC input is emergency use only. What is the maximum AC output when the unit is charging with AC - can it exceed 1800W?
😊 You’re the reason why I turn off my AC converter in my travel trailer.
Yesss!! 😀👍🏼👊🏼🤝
I hope this works out well . Big safety concern though 9:35 mark . I have been researching various portable power stations and they are to much money vs total WH . I see this unit here does not even reach claimed capacity . Finally this unit is far better for your $ vs total WH capacity . No matter the product how warranty claims are handled says the most about a company . To many companies do everything they can to avoid valid warranty claims or dare to charge you to ship the item back during a valid warranty claim .
Prices overall for most of these stations are really high and make it far better to learn how to build your own . Example : you can purchase a total of 4800WH of quality batteries for $1000 , just add a box with wheels , inverter and charge controller . All for around $1600
No units reach claimed capacity as there are conversion losses. But this one did just as well as higher name brand units.
Now true building your own will always be cheaper, well maybe not always as it’s getting pretty cheap with some of these. But some people dont know how to DIY one or even want to as they may not have the time or desire. That’s where options come in. Just like anything in life. Some people wanna buy and go as time may be more precious to them and have money to compensate. All depends what people want.
But even your DIY setup wont be as easy as this grab and go unit or others like it. So again it does have benefits included in the higher pricing.
DIY still is cheaper and will get more for you money and servicing is easy if some part fails. But again all depends what “you” want.
I cancelled that order. I did receive their 200w panel i also ordered separately, came in good time.
Great review. This is the first unit to ever check all my boxes. Had this come out before I ordered my EG4 inverter and battery I would be buying this unit. In the meantime I have been very satisfied with my first generation Ecoflows and their customer service. I did not know about turning off the inverter in the RV when hooking up a power station, great tip. I normally like to hook up my 2 Ecoflow delta max 2000 to my 30 amp plug on my RV to discharge it by running my 13,500 a/c. I do this about every 3 or 4 months to maintain them at optimum health . One question on the 12V 30 amp port the plug is an XT60EF , is this plug compatible with other XT60 plugs and the XT60I? Thanks for sharing your information.
You know shoot I forgot to mention that and I’m sorry. The xt60ef won’t except the xt60 normal connector.
I was using there plugs but later when the video was complete I was trying something and noticed the normal xt60 jumper I had didn’t work.
So the DC 12v-30amp out will need a xt60ef if wanting to use it for other items.
The solar inputs are normal xt60 and can use xt60i as well as the tab will just be off to the side.
Sorry I didn’t mention it
id much rather have a eco flow delta pro refurbed on ebay threw evoflow direct $1539
One concern that I'd have is the output voltage. My Pecron E600LFP is rated for 100-120 volt output, and indeed it randomly jumps around between 100 and 120 volts depending on load, which some of my devices really don't like. The E3600LFP manual also lists the output as 100-120 volts, which makes me think it has the same problem, given enough load...
This unit can be setup for 100v-110v-120v. Pretty nice. All in the ap and voltage drop is minimal.
Wonder how the unit will do with heat inside that storage compartment running high wattage stuff like the A/C etc
I have ran them inside my Rv but it’s vented pretty well. They need air
This is the second review of the E3600lfp that has had issues with the DC out. I hope they fix this, the other issue was not software, it was hardware and it fried the entire DC side. 🤞🏻
Ahh interesting. Although it’s can handle a little more than rated but not double. What other review?
@@johnnysweekends Hobo just did a review.
@@johnnysweekendswith their poor record of customer support I would be concerned.
I have had this unit for one week running 24 hrs and it’s quiet and buttery smooth, I freaking LOVE IT!!! ❤
Yeah HoboTech had the same problem
Is your 5th wheel basement ventilated? What about heat buildup? My basements on my class A get very hot on the road when it’s over 100 ambient.
Yes it has plenty of ventilation down there. Almost too much because dust also gets in there some. But a Rv gets dusty regardless.
I bet you could add a fav or exhaust fan in the class A
I have a boat exhaust fan in my compartment. You can see it in the video. It’s run off of Dc 👍🏼
So how is this unit at using random solar panels vs Pecrons panels? Will it take different manufactures SP?
You can use any solar panels you like as long as you don’t go over the voltage limit. You need to a little space to as cold temps will raise voltage as cold panels produce better results.
Power stations don’t care where the power is coming from. It only sees volts and amps
I have a few pecron units and have never seen any issue at all
Johnny, I have a question. Can you use an older generator non inverter type champion 6000 watt to charge the 3600 safely without damaging it?
You can try but most times no. Most these need a newer inverter type gen. Cleaner power
Do you have a link to the 30A plug as I could not find on Pecron site?
The E1500LFP which has 16 of the 3.2 volt LFP batteries and produces 1536 w/hrs is only $599 right now. The E3600LF: has 32 of the 3.2 volt LFP batteries and produces exactly double the w/hrs (3072) If you purchased 2 1500's for $1200 you'd get the same capacity and 2 inverters/charge controllers/bms, etc. But the 3600 cost is $1599?!@#$ I'd buy the 2 1500's and have more versatility myself. And it may be possible to connect them to produce 240 volt split phase (but I'm not sure of that). Just sayin'.
The E15000 is also older so it would be cheaper. But also depends if you want to move two units or just have one. Options..👍🏼
Hãng có bán ở VIỆT NAM không? Rất mong chờ
How is pecron customer service? This unit seems to have a lot of bang for the buck
I would say it’s just as good as everyone else from all the feed back and things I have read.
My experience was horrible. No phone number to call so you have to send an email. They responded after a few days and wanted multiple videos as “proof”. They stalled a few weeks. Then they said it was working as it was supposed to. A 600 watt inverter only able to produce 200 watts? Really? So then only after I posted a negative review on Amazon did they beg me to take the negative review down. They sent me a replacement unit that did the same thing. So now I have two EP 300s with 600 watt inverters that can only output 200 watts.
You should watch the Hobotech review. The DC inverter totally died during testing. With Pecrons poor history of customer service I would be concerned.
The CS is actually not that bad. I wouldn’t say it’s worse than several others. Like Bluetti went to hell which a lot of us stopped for a while till they figured them selves out.
But pecron seems to be pretty well. Sure I have seen bad reviews but seen it with everyone. Bluetti, Ecoflow, zendure, goal zero….. all of them.
@@johnnysweekends it wasn’t a bad preview, they sent him a preproduction unit, which is not a good thing to do. I agree with U, they all have had problems, but sending a pre unit is just plan crazy. Heck Ecoflow sent some customers the delta pro with the RV plug reversed polarity, that was a mess! So If U get a good one no matter the brand, enjoy and cross your fingers.
@user-yf5bo3xi6e I have had several preproduction units. I really dispise it because I’m supposed to be testing and then reviewing a unit to show and maybe recommend. Don’t give me a bum unit. It just waists my time
Several videos cancelled from companies due to faulty products and just plan junk. Doesn’t meet spec or do what it’s supposed to do so I don’t even let it get to a video on the channel.
The power supply for my E600LFP failed, and while I'm not thrilled about the quality of the product itself, they were quite prompt in replacing it for free under warranty. I just had to send them a video demonstrating the problem. I had also asked them a question before buying and got a quick response. So I can't fault their customer service at all.
@guspaz nice good to know
Can you charge this with solar panels while using it?
Definitely!! 😀👍🏼
I have a question that none of the reviewers talk about.
Does the E3600 and the expansion battery(ies) discharge and recharge at the same time, and at the same rate.
I emailed Pecron, but they have not answered back as of yet. Pecron doesn't seem to have a phone number to call.
Thank you
So far it seems to drain both at same time and fill at same time.
I don’t know if they will add a setting to have a priority setting for the main unit.
ECOFLOW just started this
@@johnnysweekends
Thats great yo hear! Thank you for the reply.
Always better if the do discharge and recharge at the same time and same rate. It injured that you don't waste a cycle on either the head unit or expansion battery. I just ordered the E3600 LFP with two expansion batteries.
@offgridgesertdwellers dont forget the discount code..👍🏼
@@johnnysweekends
Yep, used it!
Thx
I ordered the 2000w on 7/10/24 after just 4 communications, I've never heard anything more about my order. Here it is 7/26/24 and nothing no emails, phone calls nothing. Was never sent, have no idea why, they wouldn't communicate with me. Canceled my order, couldn't take it no more. WOULDN'T HAVE IT NOW IT THEY GAVE IT TO ME FREE.
I canceled the order, now I did receive their 200w solar panel in good time.
Did you order through website or Amazon or?
@mtj2050 items could be on back order
@@johnnysweekendsput a negative review on Amazon. That’s what I did and they contacted me begging me to take down my review.
I have this unit on order and have a question regarding the solar charging ports. Solar panels are Renogy 220W portable suitcase rated at 23.3V VOC, 20V optimum operating Voltage, optimum operating current 11A. If I’m understanding this correctly, it’s too much for the 12-30V port, but too light for the 32-150V port. Which port would I use?
No you would be right in the ball park of the voltage at 20v
The low input is 12-30v so should be just fine.
The 220W panels would not be issue with the 150W max. restriction?
Nope that’s just over paneling. As long as you stay under the voltage limit by a few volts for temp variations
Thank you sir for your prompt replies. I’m (obviously) a newbie at this solar stuff and really appreciate your ability and willingness to share your knowledge. My decision to go with the 3600 was based in large part on your (and other) reviews. Thanks again.
@rickhann9307 So far it seems to be a good unit from others I have been talking with. Im still using mine as a power dump or a unit for testing other items. Still doing fine!
Battery chemistry?
E3600LFP= lithium iron phosphate
Don't want it. Most >500 watt panels are near 50 volts now. The 150 volt input limits me to do only 2 in series with my 545 watt panels. If I go even with a 2S2P It limits my input voltage to 100 max and reduces the solar charging wattage. Same problem with Ecoflow Delta Pro that I'm dealing with.
But you are the exception. A majority of people are using 200-400 watt panels. If you are doing a larger system then why even buy this. Should be looking into other options.
An EG4 6000xp with a 280 a/h wall unit costs only $4900 and has 14.7 kw/h and 6000 watt capacity and produces 240 split phase as well as 120 volt. Just sayin. Pecron isn't all that afterall.
The Eg4 6000xp is a great unit along with the wall battery, but you are comparing a stationary unit with a portable. Hard to take a eg4 and that wall battery to a build site, camping and more. Not apples to apples at all. Good stuff, just way different.
I heard horrible return policy. So too risky to buy
You heard?? Or you know for sure from experience?
@@johnnysweekends read 3 or 4 comments regarding they make you pay the shipping cost even if it’s defective
@jamesdean7756 I will have to ask them about that. Because that doesn’t work.
😊😊😊😊😊👌👌👌👌🫶🫶👏👏👍👍👍❤️
hey how many people do you think can afford 1,100 each extra battery? ??? get real here. might be cheaper than many brands but 5,500$$$$ is a lot of money for the average person.Not everyone has his own house?????
I get it. But there is always someone richer and always someone with less. Been that way forever.
There are options or everyone, budget and premium.
Overpriced too much 😂🎉
