Our verdict

The pick for backing up a whole house: 4 kWh in one unit, real 240 V output and room to grow to 12 kWh. If you need more solar input or 6,000 W from a single unit, look at the Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • 4,096 Wh and 4,000 W continuous at 120 V or 240 V from one unit, with a 240 V L14-30R outlet for a transfer switch
  • Up to 2,600 W of solar input across two ports
  • 4,000 cycles to 80% capacity and a 10 ms backup switchover, by EcoFlow's figures
  • Grows to 12 kWh with two Smart Extra Batteries, more with EcoFlow's home panel

Cons

  • 113.5 lb: it rolls on wheels, but it is heavy to lift into a vehicle
  • EcoFlow's 0-80% in 50 minutes figure does not say which input it assumes; a standard 120 V, 15 A outlet can supply at most 1,800 W
  • Wiring it into the house needs EcoFlow's Smart Home Panel 2 or a transfer switch, installed by an electrician
  • The full 5-year warranty needs registration in the EcoFlow app; the standard warranty is 3 years

Who it suits

Homeowners who want one rolling unit to carry a house through an outage, including 240 V loads through a transfer switch. EcoFlow says it can run a 3-ton central air conditioner and a 1 HP water pump. EcoFlow rates it at 4,000 W continuous at 120 V or 240 V, with a 10 ms switchover when the grid drops, and the 4,096 Wh battery is rated for 4,000 cycles to 80% capacity.

It also suits owners who plan to add solar: the two inputs take up to 2,600 W combined, and two DELTA Pro 3 Smart Extra Batteries take it to 12 kWh. See how it compares with Anker's whole-home unit in DELTA Pro 3 vs SOLIX F3800 Plus.

Who should skip it

Campers and anyone who needs to lift the station often: it weighs 113.5 lb. For a station you can carry, the DELTA 3 Max Plus holds 2,048 Wh at 48.7 lb. Buyers with a large solar array may prefer the Anker SOLIX F3800 Plus, which takes 3,200 W of solar.

What we could not confirm

EcoFlow quotes 0-80% in 50 minutes but does not say which charging input or voltage that figure assumes; on a 120 V, 15 A outlet the input is limited to 1,800 W. EcoFlow's 48 kWh system figure needs three DELTA Pro 3 units, extra batteries, generators and the Smart Home Panel 2, so we list the 12 kWh single-unit figure in the table.

Frequently asked questions
