Recharging with solar

The EcoFlow Delta 3 Max 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’t fully keep up. A gas furnace blower uses about 7.2 kWh a day at 24 hours of use, more than the EcoFlow Delta 3 Max’s best-case solar harvest. Solar will stretch the runtime but not sustain it.

Tips

  • A gas furnace still needs electricity for its blower and igniter. Connecting one requires a transfer switch or an inlet installed by an electrician.
  • You’ll still have about 1800W of AC capacity left for other devices at the same time, though they’ll share the same battery.
  • The EcoFlow Delta 3 Max uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.
