EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus

The EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus is the upgraded DELTA 3, with the same 1,024 Wh battery and 1,800 W output plus a second solar input (1,000 W total) and faster 140 W USB-C ports. Its 10 ms UPS switch-over keeps computers and medical gear running through outages, making it a strong all-round pick for a fridge, CPAP or home office during a blackout. The main limit is size: at 27.6 lb it is a two-hand carry.

How long does the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus last?

A CPAP with its heated humidifier runs about 26 hours, three full nights, and a laptop gets about 22 hours of use. Run a full-size fridge and that CPAP together and you get about 11 hours, enough to carry both through one night of an outage.

Runtime for 18 common devices

One device at a time, from a full charge. Devices that cycle on and off (fridges, freezers, heaters, pumps) use their average draw.

Battery Wh × 0.85 ÷ the device’s average watts. “Can’t run it” means the device needs more than 1,800 W or a start-up surge above 3,600 W. Try your own mix in the calculator.

Runtime for each device

A full answer for each device on the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus: hours, start-up surge and other units to consider.

Is the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus right for you?

Buy the Plus for solar. It has two solar inputs that take 500 W each, 1,000 W in all, twice what the plain DELTA 3 accepts. A full-size fridge uses about 1,100 Wh a day. With enough panels, a few good hours of sun can put most of that back, which is what makes a multi-day outage or a week in a van workable.

Everything else matches the DELTA 3: 1,024 Wh, 1,800 W of output, 3,600 W surge, a 56-minute wall recharge, six AC outlets, 27.6 lb and expansion to 5,000 Wh. The other upgrades are small. Its two USB-C ports give 140 W each instead of 100 W, which charges a large laptop at full speed, and it has three 12V outlets instead of two. If you will not use either, the DELTA 3 runs the same devices for the same time.

Against the DJI Power 1000 V2, it has less output (1,800 W against 2,600 W) and a lower expansion ceiling (5,000 Wh against 11,264 Wh). It wins on surge, starting a 1/2 HP well pump the DJI cannot, and it has a car socket and solar inputs built in. Its limits are weight, at 27.6 lb, and an output that rules out an 1,875 W hair dryer at full heat.

What we like

  • Two solar inputs take up to 1,000 W total (500 W each) for fast off-grid refills
  • 140 W USB-C ports charge big laptops at full speed
  • 10 ms UPS switch-over suits NAS drives, routers and medical devices
  • Full recharge from a wall outlet in 56 minutes

Watch out for

  • Same 1,024 Wh capacity as the cheaper DELTA 3
  • 27.6 lb and roughly the size of a carry-on bag
  • The extra cost over the DELTA 3 buys ports and solar, not capacity

Consider instead

Questions about the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus

Is the DELTA 3 Plus worth it over the DELTA 3?
Only if you use solar or 140 W USB-C. Runtime is identical, since both hold 1,024 Wh. The Plus refills about twice as fast from 1,000 W of panels, but with 500 W of panels or less, the two charge at the same speed.
How many solar panels does the DELTA 3 Plus need?
To reach the full 1,000 W you need panels on both inputs, up to 500 W on each. With 1,000 W of panels in ideal sun, a full refill takes about an hour. Real panels produce less than their rating, so expect longer.
How long will the DELTA 3 Plus run a fridge with extra batteries?
About 94 hours, close to four days, at the full 5,000 Wh. On its own 1,024 Wh, the same fridge runs about 19 hours.
Can the DELTA 3 Plus run a sump pump?
Yes. A 1/3 HP sump pump needs about 2,100 W to start, well under the 3,600 W surge rating. If it pumps 10% of the time, a full charge lasts about 11 hours.
