    CONNECTIVITY

    What’s more is that the EcoFlow DELTA Pro also boasts wireless Connectivity, including both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Connectivity, which can be used to pair this portable power station together with its dedicated Smartphone Companion App (called the EcoFlow App) so that users can ensure they get an even more efficient power-usage of the unit’s built-in LFP battery system.

    BATTERY & BATTERY LIFE

    In terms of the unit’s power-source, as said before, the EcoFlow DELTA Pro is a portable power station and back-up home battery that’s is specifically powered by a built-in LFP battery system, which, while it boasts 3,600Wh as its default power-capacity, its Output Power can ultimately be expanded up to 4500W thanks to its X-Boost technology.

    Built-in LFP battery system

    Essentially, the way the DELTA Pro’s X-Boost technology works is that whenever the combined wattage of every electrical device that’s drawing power from DELTA Pro exceeds a total of 3600 Watts, EcoFlow’s X-Boost technology lets the unit accommodate up to 4500 Watts of Output Power for all of those devices. Some devices will run at a lower wattage during this period – meaning that toasters may take a little longer to heat-up and power tools may be less powerful – while other devices may not work at all. Still, the unit’s X-Boost technology shouldn’t be seen as a way to get 4500W out of DELTA Pro, but rather as a safety functionality that’s always there to ensure that a temporary surge during the unit’s usage doesn’t overload its inverter.

    Moreover, while the system’s default power-capacitiy stands at 3,600Wh (i.e its Output Power), its total battery-capacity can ultimately be expanded all the way up to 25,000Wh capacity. Firstly, users can pair two units together to achieve a total of 7200 of Output Power.

    To further extend the system’s default power-capacitiy up to a whopping 25,000Wh of Output Power, users can also connect the EcoFlow DELTA Pro to other of the company’s optional EcoFlow power-solutions, including the DELTA Pro Smart Extra Battery, the EcoFlow Smart Generator, and also the EcoFlow Smart Home Panel (all discussed in greater detail at the end of the article).

    By expanding the DELTA Pro’s power-capacity, homeowners are guaranteed to be able to power up any home appliances as well as recharge any smaller devices whenever they need to.

    Finally, when it comes to recharging the DELTA Pro’s LFP battery system, since the DELTA Pro’s LFP battery system also leverages a built-in smart inverter that works based on X-Stream Charging technology, this ultimately allows this portable battery station to fully charge its 3,600Wh capacity in as little as just 1.8 hours (when feeding the unit’s battery system with at least 3400W of Input Power), or ultimately, in just 2.7 hours (which equates to 2 hours and 42 minutes) at most (when feeding its battery system with 1800W of Input Power, such as when recharging it via your home’s Wall Outlets).

    For recharging the unit’s LFP battery system, users can opt between one of 6 different methods, including directly via their home’s electricity (i.e. via Wall Outlets), via the kit’s included 400W Solar Panel, via an EV Charging Station, and more.

    Best of all, the unit also boasts a MultiCharge functionality, which means that it can even utilize a combination of multiple charging methods to achieve a rapid 6500W charge (note that this requires the DELTA Pro to be connected to a DELTA Pro Smart Extra Battery).

    THE SMARTPHONE COMPANION APP – The EcoFlow App

    To ensure an even more efficient power-usage of the EcoFlow DELTA Pro’s built-in LFP battery system, all that users have to do is to to install the EcoFlow App on their Smartphones, which is available to download for free for both iOS and Android devices.

    EcoFlow Smart Home Panel

    This is because the EcoFlow Smart Home Panel is specifically designed to immediately re-route the DELTA Pro’s power (from its stored electrical energy) to prevent any electrical appliances from drawing their power from your home’s standard electric power (which comes from your city’s dedicated Power-Grid), ultimately providing all of those appliances with uninterrupted power, which is especially great during any emergencies.

    That’s simply because the EcoFlow DELTA Pro is also designed to work as an expandable home-battery ecosystem for daily use, which essentially works by having the EcoFlow DELTA Pro ecosystem storing energy day and night, ultimately allowing homeowners to reduce their reliance on the grid, thus consequently lowering the costs of their energy bills by combating time-of-use rates. Thanks to all of that, power outages will never again be a problem.

    EcoFlow Smart Generator

    Finally, during any emergencies such as unexpected power outages or even natural catastrophes that can also cause power outages, the EcoFlow Smart Generator can provide your EcoFlow DELTA Pro unit with cost-effective and efficient power in comparison to using a traditional gas-powered generator alone, as this device features a very respectable 5,400Wh of back-up power-capacity per unit.
