Recharging with solar
The EcoFlow Delta Pro 3 accepts up to 2600W of solar input. In real conditions that harvests about 9.8 kWh on a sunny day (5 peak-sun hours), or about 750Wh with one 200W panel.
Solar can keep up. A hair dryer uses about 270Wh a day at 0.15 hours of use, so with enough panels and good sun the EcoFlow Delta Pro 3 can run it indefinitely.
Tips
- Hair dryers draw up to 1,800W on high. The low or cool setting cuts that by half or more.
- You’ll still have about 2200W of AC capacity left for other devices at the same time, though they’ll share the same battery.
- The EcoFlow Delta Pro 3 uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.
