How Long Will the EcoFlow Delta 2 Run a Dishwasher?

Updated 2026-10-17 · Yes

About 1.2 hours. The EcoFlow Delta 2 stores 1024Wh, and a dishwasher averages about 750W because it cycles on roughly 50% of the time. That covers about 77% of a typical 1.5-hour day.

Recharging with solar

The EcoFlow Delta 2 accepts up to 500W of solar input. In real conditions that harvests about 1.9 kWh on a sunny day (5 peak-sun hours), or about 750Wh with one 200W panel.

Solar can keep up. A dishwasher uses about 1.1 kWh a day at 1.5 hours of use, so with enough panels and good sun the EcoFlow Delta 2 can run it indefinitely.

Tips

  • A dishwasher heats water in bursts during a 1.5–2 hour cycle, using about 1–1.5 kWh. Skip the heated dry to save energy.
  • You’ll still have about 300W of AC capacity left for other devices at the same time, though they’ll share the same battery.
  • The EcoFlow Delta 2 uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.
