Data from official source

EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus is a home power station with lithium iron phosphate cells: it has a dedicated port for extra batteries and grows when the starting runtime isn't enough anymore. When power fails it switches to the battery in ten milliseconds, fast enough that whoever's using it doesn't notice.

It charges from the grid, the sun, the car's alternator or a generator, even from several sources at once: if both the sun and the outlet are connected, it uses solar energy first and tops up from the grid only when that isn't enough. While it's connected to the grid and powering whatever's plugged in, current normally passes straight from the outlet to the devices; for equipment more sensitive to power quality, like an amplifier, the app can force battery-only operation.

A USB-C cable connects it to a computer or a NAS so they shut themselves down in an orderly way if the blackout lasts longer than its runtime. It's built for anyone who wants a fixed reserve near a router, a computer or small appliances during a power outage, and for anyone planning to expand it later with more batteries; anyone looking for a light unit to carry around will find more weight and bulk here than needed.

Which documents this page rests on

The rest of the data comes from one page on the manufacturer's site, cited row by row in the table above.

A manual or a datasheet counts as a source even when the original file is hosted elsewhere: what matters is the document, not the server. Where that happens, it is stated above.

03 · Summary

Pros and cons

In favour

  • When power fails it switches to the battery within milliseconds: computer and router stay on without a noticeable interruption.
  • It charges from several sources at once: if the sun and the outlet are both connected, it uses the sun first and tops up from the grid only if needed. source
  • A USB-C cable connects it to a computer or a NAS, which can shut down on their own in an orderly way if the blackout lasts longer than the runtime. source
  • It grows with extra batteries from several generations of the range, not only ones made specifically for this model.

Worth knowing

  • For equipment more sensitive to power quality, like an amplifier, a battery-only setting has to be turned on in the app. source
  • Charging it from the sun needs a dedicated cable, sold separately. source
  • Reaching the maximum capacity needs more extra batteries, bought separately.
