Received the EcoFlow Delta 2 Max, 400w panel and solar extension cables days before hurricane Beryl (July 2024). It has been a huge relief and well worth the money! Today is our 4th day without electricity with temps in the mid 90s, heat advisory, heat index of 100 degrees and low to no wind. It's hot as hell!
Unit arrived very well packaged and set up was very simple. The only negative comment regarding set up would be the solar panel case... the case is perfect for storage but flimsy when used as a stand. I made a stand out of gray pvc and it works great.
About the generator... I plugged in the unit before the power outage and it fully charged in an hour. Display screen is bright and easy to read. The number of USB & AC outlets are extremely useful and it has outlets for 2 panels.
Solar charing... there is a bit of a learning curve here and it has to be managed throughout the day. To get the best charge, the panel has to be adjusted throughout the day according to the sun position. I have been able to get over 300 watts for several hours on a sunny day.
Watt usage... this is where you have to manage watts and the app is a battery saver!!! For example: During sunny midday I can get up to 309 watts coming in. With my 25 cu ft refrigerator, 1 oscillating fan and a TV plugged in, all of that has been using 220 watts. Banking more watts than what is being used! But, if I unplug the refrigerator (and not open it) for 4 hours the wattage usage drops to 100 (food stays cold). Banking even more watts! Managing the usage this way gets us through the day with 40% - 50% battery life at sunset. Unplugging the refrigerator for 4 hours overnight helps save watts until the sun comes up.
Overall... I'm very happy with this product! So relieved that my grocery items are kept cool and I'm not out driving around looking for gas and ice!
My only regret... not buying a small generator for use upstairs.
