The Ecoflow Delta Pro is a smart and powerful portable power station that can provide up to 3600W of output and 3600Wh of capacity. It can also be connected to the internet via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, allowing you to monitor and control it remotely using the Ecoflow app on your smartphone.
But what if you want to increase the output or capacity of your Ecoflow Delta Pro, such as for home backup, outdoor recreation, professional work, or smart energy management? Can you connect 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro together? And if so, how does it work and what are the benefits?
Yes, you can connect 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro together in series or parallel, depending on your needs and preferences. Connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in series can increase the output voltage from 120V to 240V, while connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in parallel can increase the output power from 3600W to 7200W.
How to connect 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in series?
Connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in series means that you connect the output of one unit to the input of another unit, creating a chain of devices that share the same current but have different voltages. This can increase the output voltage from 120V to 240V, which can be useful for powering some heavy-duty or high-wattage appliances that require higher voltage.
To connect 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in series, you need to follow these steps:
- Charge both units fully: You need to charge both units fully before connecting them in series, as this will ensure that they have the same battery level and capacity. You can charge them using solar panels, AC wall outlets, or car chargers, as long as the total input power does not exceed 6500W.
- Turn off both units: You need to turn off both units before connecting them in series, as this will prevent any short circuits or overloads. You can do this by pressing and holding the power button on the front of each unit until they turn off completely. You should see the LCD screen go blank and hear a beep sound.
- Connect them using the AC charging cable: You need to use the AC charging cable that comes with each unit to connect them in series. Plug one end of the cable into the output port on the back of one unit and plug the other end into the input port on the back of another unit. Make sure that the cable is secure and not damaged.
- Turn on both units: You need to turn on both units after connecting them in series, as this will activate their battery management systems and synchronize their output voltage. You can do this by pressing the power button on the front of each unit. You should see the LCD screen light up and hear a beep sound.
- Plug your appliances into one unit: You can now plug your appliances that require higher voltage into one unit’s output ports. The other unit will act as a booster and provide additional voltage to the first unit. You should see a series icon on both units’ LCD screens, indicating that they are connected in series.
How to connect 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in parallel?
Connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in parallel means that you connect the input or output ports of both units together, creating a network of devices that share the same voltage but have different currents. This can increase the output power from 3600W to 7200W, which can be useful for powering more devices or appliances at the same time.
To connect 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in parallel, you need to follow these steps:
- Charge both units fully: You need to charge both units fully before connecting them in parallel, as this will ensure that they have the same battery level and capacity. You can charge them using solar panels, AC wall outlets, or car chargers, as long as the total input power does not exceed 6500W.
- Turn off both units: You need to turn off both units before connecting them in parallel, as this will prevent any short circuits or overloads. You can do this by pressing and holding the power button on the front of each unit until they turn off completely. You should see the LCD screen go blank and hear a beep sound.
- Connect them using a double voltage hub: You need to use a double voltage hub (sold separately) to connect them in parallel. The double voltage hub is a device that allows you to link two units together and their battery management systems will distribute capacity evenly to anything plugged into it. Plug one end of the hub into one unit’s input port and plug another end into another unit’s input port. Make sure that the hub is secure and not damaged.
- Turn on both units: You need to turn on both units after connecting them in parallel, as this will activate their battery management systems and synchronize their output power. You can do this by pressing the power button on the front of each unit. You should see the LCD screen light up and hear a beep sound.
- Plug your appliances into the hub: You can now plug your appliances that require higher power into the hub’s output ports. Both units will act as a single unit and provide additional power to the hub. You should see a parallel icon on both units’ LCD screens, indicating that they are connected in parallel.
What are the benefits of connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro together?
Connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro together has several benefits, such as:
- Increasing the output voltage or power: Connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in series can increase the output voltage from 120V to 240V, while connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in parallel can increase the output power from 3600W to 7200W. This can help you power more devices or appliances that require higher voltage or power, such as ovens, dryers, washers, air conditioners, heaters, etc.
- Extending the runtime or capacity: Connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro together can also extend the runtime or capacity of your device, as both units will share their battery resources and provide more backup power. For example, if you connect 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in series, you can get a total capacity of 7200Wh, which can power a 60W laptop for about 120 hours or a 10W light for about 720 hours. If you connect 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro in parallel, you can get a total output of 7200W, which can power a 1800W microwave for about 4 hours or a 900W coffee maker for about 8 hours.
- Enhancing the versatility and flexibility: Connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro together can also enhance the versatility and flexibility of your device, as you can switch between different modes and configurations depending on your needs and preferences. You can choose to connect them in series or parallel, or use them separately as standalone units. You can also connect them to other accessories or products, such as solar panels, smart extra batteries, smart generators, smart home panels, etc.
What are the drawbacks of connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro together?
Connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro together also has some drawbacks, such as:
- Requiring additional equipment and cost: Connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro together requires additional equipment and cost than using a single unit. You need to buy another unit, which costs $2999 (or $2499 if you pre-order). You also need to buy a double voltage hub, which costs $199. You may also need to buy other accessories or products, such as cables, adapters, controllers, etc.
- Being noisy and bulky: Connecting 2 Ecoflow Delta Pro together can be noisy and bulky compared to using a single unit. Both units will produce loud noises when running at high speeds or loads, which may disturb you or your neighbors. Both units will also take up more space and weight than a single unit, which may limit your portability and mobility.
