EcoFlow launches new Delta 3 Max and Ultra power stations as new portable options
EcoFlow has announced a new power station range under its Delta 3 branding, with new products under the Delta 3 Max and Delta 3 Ultra branding, and the re-naming of the original model to the Delta 3 Classic. In total, five power stations are now available from EcoFlow in the higher-capacity Delta 3 range.
Max, Ultra, and Plus?
A new aspect is also “Plus” branding, with the moniker signifying that the Plus-branded models feature a new feature called “Smart Output Priority,” which lets users choose which devices stay powered as the battery begins to run down. Plus-branding also indicates that the base model capacity can be expanded via additional batteries.
The new top-of-the-line portable model is the Delta 3 Ultra Plus, with a 3 kWh capacity and a 3,600W output to supply heavier loads and multiple devices, or for extended periods without power. The Ultra Plus charges in a reported sub-50 minute timeframe, with the use of EcoFlow’s X-Stream Fast Charge tech. It supports six different charging methods including from solar, the grid, and a generator. It has 11 outlets and weighs about 33.7 kg.
The Delta 3 Ultra has the same capacity and power output, but without the Smart Output Priority. The non-Plus Ultra weighs 32.7 kg and drops the Anderson port outlet, to have 10 outlets.
Over on the Delta 3 Max Plus is a slightly lower capacity: the Max Plus offers a 2 kWh backup with 3000W output. EcoFlow claims it can power 99% of home appliances, and keep essentials running for up to three days and two nights. Like the Ultra Plus, it has Smart Output Priority, while it supports five charging options, and also charges in under 50 minutes. It weighs around 22.1 kilograms, with 10 outlets. It can support additional expandable batteries.
The non-Plus Delta 3 Max shares the 2 kWh capacity and 3000W output but skips the smart priority features. It also weighs less at around 20.3 kg and has one less outlet port, and can not support additional expandable batteries.
Completing the new line-up is the Delta 3 Classic. This has been refreshed while also getting a rebrand from the old “Delta 3 Plus” name, and it sticks with the cost-effective 1 kWh capacity, 1800W output (with 3600W surge available).
EcoFlow says the new Delta 3 series feature automotive-grade full-tab lithium iron phosphate or LFP cells as their chemistry, offering 27% fewer cells per kWh compared to EcoFlow’s previous LFP cell options.
