I miss the days when you would tear into a Ecoflow and take it apart. How about doing one where you figure out how to put an auxiliary battery on a Delta 2 Max and figure out how to connect it using the two side ports? There has to be a way to use those for adding a 100ah battery.
The Delta Mini has a limitation of 300w on the solar input.
I love the EB4 21Ah 36v scooter batteries I bought from you to extend the Ecoflow's life.
Thank You for spending time doing this. I started my solar system exploration with Eco Flow products. I have Delta max and mini system. I myself love the form factor but was heavily considering a server rack battery.....but this diy is better buy. I
What are you using to charge the rack batteries?
This helped me out a ton. You answered all my questions thanks.
Thank for all your help. I learn something all the time.
Great video. But u should take the +ve and -ve ends of the charging cable from the OPPOSITE sides of the parallel config. That way each battery sees a balanced and identical flow of current
Excellent demo!
You can just read the specs for the MPPT inputs, if you know the max wattage divide that by the max amperage and that'll give you the minimum voltage input to get max power... i.e. Delta Max 2000 is 800W 13A, so you need ~62V at minimum to get 800W.
Thanks for helping me out on taking the battery appart. Many thanks. For the rs12 battery pack.
I just talked to a Signature Solar engineer and he said that connecting their 48V batteries in series will absolutely kill the BMS in a short time.
I also talked to the folks that sell the Jakiper people and they said the same thing. Is there any 48V battery that the make approves of connecting them in series?
Maybe you could hack the cable that the delta pro extra battery plugs into to see if you can get more power into the delta pro. I sure would be interested in this
What about with a conventional lifepo4 house battery with +\- poles? What’s the best way to connect a delta 2 max to this regular house battery so that the alternator charger is charging and discharging both batteries?
Can the batteries be connected to recharge the ...delta max in my case .... while using the outputs of the unit to supply power during charging
you need to have a xt60i plug to get more watts input that plug has a notch in the middle that will activate the high power input
What about with a conventional lifepo4 house battery with +\- poles? What’s the best way to connect a delta 2 max to this regular house battery so that the alternator charger is charging and discharging both batteries?
When i connect with extract how am i going to connect it with solar panels? Can i create an extra extension xt60i so that i can connect with solar panels
The Delta max 2000 specs say Solar Charging Input. 800W Max, 11-100V, 13A.looking for a battery pack not to hurt or exceed the specs recommended what battery and how many and in what array should I be getting from you Jehu?
As always great straight info. Can the server rack battery be charged via solar panels while supplying power to the delta pro unit? If so can you explain or show me the input side to charge the server battery while in use.
Thanks again love you style
Hi Thanks, but where can we find cable RED/BLACK with protective caps between batteries ? And what about the section 25 mm² or 16 mm².
Thanks
You'll have to connect the external battery manually otherwise the Ecoflow will continuously drain it - just the standby use - as it uses solar as priority, right ?
There is a setting to allow more than 8amp amp I think, which is to protect 12/24 direct battery charging
Another good video. I was really interested in the ECO Flow when I saw they could produce 240V with the options. But the price was too high. For me to take my Texas home off grid it is better to get server rack batteries and split phase inverters for 240VAC. Again, thanks for the video. I have always liked your channel!
Any possible way to get 800 watts with two 48v (51.2V) batteries? I don't believe voltage is the issue but amps is. How can I get the amps up to get 800watts? I'm only seeing 400 watts. Thoughts?
Your video is great and based on what I saw I decided to buy a 11.7kw Basen green Lifepo4 51.2V battery. I will charge a BG battery with solar panels via a Victron MPPT 150/35. I will charge the Delta pro from BG battery (sketch). Output from BG battery is 50Ah (200Ah max).
After a minute of charging with an output power of 15.5A, the output power from the BG battery started to drop to 3A and then back up to 5A, thus minimally charging the Delta Pro in waves (3A 5A 3A 5A, ...). Could it be a power output problem with too much amperage (DP max input xt60 is 15A)? How can I solve this?
i believe charge controllers dont do well with these portable ups, if you use the batteries as a standalone they charge the 2 DP. im looking at dc/dc psu's
Dont try to charge the max or mini with two 48V packs in series because you'll exceed the maximum input voltage
Good tests. I think you ran into amperage limits on the smaller Delta units versus the Delta Pro
Beautiful presentation! Thank you!
Love the battery stuff and diy stuff I was always thinking can I use my own battery thanks for the I fo keep it up
👍👍
If you buy the r12 battery packs untested they came out to being at 2.5v and I'm chasing them up to 4.05v per cell to extend the life of the pack. Got a good deal for 4 of these running it on my Uber scooter at 72v upgrade. And doing about 26mph +. Not bat good battery pack.
excelent test
This is really cool. I bought a river pro i think? Would this work on that one too?
Yeah the mini is limited to 300w input. I got one. I love these ones you make that save us money!
Seems you’ll have battery for my solar install in a few months. Any recommendations for 20kw panels and inverters? Thanks
If i buy a delta max pro for my old mother, will it be possible to somhow " parallel" in one of these large 48V batterys? , like a expansion battery but not delta product?
and still keep the UPS function from the delta?
If so i will propably buy one of these for her AND my winter cabin
(Need to keep the solar charge and grid charging possibilitys as she will not be able to connect external batterys by her self)
Expandeble UPS ?
Why would you do that just buy a 3- or 4-thousand-watt inverter and hook it up to that rack of batteries
yeah tell that to the million people who own Delta Pros
Per ecoflow, delta mini maxes out at 300 watts charging via solar port, even though it supports up to 10 amps, hmm. Delta max should be capable of 800 watts, not sure why it only took 525 or so watts charging from server rack battery. Btw, XT60I-F connector has a pin on the side that triggers max amperage on ecoflow inverters, XT60H-F doesn't have that pin.
Can you charge it off your Rivian or anything else electric? I'm considering using the 12v outlet in my Tesla model 3 while in camp mode. That would keep some power coming into the Ecoflow all the time. Hoping that would be enough in an emergency to run a fridge, lights, other necessities.
That would drain your Tesla's 12v battery and then you'd be stuck with a bricked car.. definitely do not do that.
I doubt the Tesla would let the 12v battery die, it would just charge it from the main pack
My Delta2 is a few months old and has already been replaced twice. Charging failure with AC, DC and solar.
Not too sure it's a good idea to connect rack batteries in series.
Please show that tower charge the delta pro's with that ev charger on the side to show how much versatility it has.
hello, another superb video/idea from you! i have 2 short questions. 1) do you think the diameter (wire gauge) of the used cables for this case is big enough? 2) why dont you connect to the first positive and the last negative of the array to use them equally ? thanks for any answer. thanks a lot.
Please get one of their battery cables and figure out the pinout and make a custom cable/adapter. Based on the pin count I think they just have the bms leads in the cable sobthe main unit handles the balancing
No that’s not how it works, the battery needs logic
Do the Delta units function as a UPS, and if so, what is their switch-over time? Is it possible to use the Delta units while they are charging, meaning can they power devices while being charged simultaneously?
Delta Pro has a better UPS, the other EcoFlow units are "EPS" up to 30mS switch over which is hit or miss for sensitive electronics. You can pass through wall power to devices and charge the battery in the units themselves but I've heard there are some limits to how much you can pass through while charging...might be ~1200watts or something...could be different per unit as well. I wish they could do like Victron where you can actually boost the utility input with the inverter(would be very handy in a garage if you're running air compressors, welders, heaters, etc).
@@rcguymike thank you so much for taking the time to reply it is really appreciated.
Lots of good info on Jasonoid, hobotech, and DIY Solar Power with Will Prowse
👏🏼 Great job!
Help! I have a basic question. I'm looking at a battery TimeUSB 100 AH. It can discharge, apparently, at 100 watts. What is the point of having a beefy inverter if the battery is a wimpy 100 watt output??? I'm just not getting it. Could someone please help or send me to remedial electronics and battery school website? Thanks for what you do. Peace upon your house and safety to your family.
My TimeUSB 100Ah batteries can discharge at 100A which is over 1200 watts. With two in parallel I've sustained 1500-1700 watts from full charge to empty.
Hey, what connector is needed to charge the battery?
czcams.com/video/gZptxiZdR7I/video.html
Canyou parallel two of the server rack batteries per delta pro?
Yes
I guess my EcoFlow Delta 2 probably charges at 300 watts using the 36V battery.
Wow. Already sold out. 😢
Might want to with the untested ones just need to do some work on them I used my K4 charger to charge them up. I split it up to 2 5s in order to charge it up with my K4 charger since it's only for 8s and not for 10s charger. Working good.
I hate it that these companies call these batteries "generators", it's so disingenuous. They're just huge storage devices, they don't generate/convert (momentum/fuel) into energy, they release stored electrical energy.
Why does it bother you? It’s the same thing to the end user, you get electrical energy out of a box, same as a generator except no fumes and no noise.
Haha they call all of them generators. Even the gas one's for many many years now haha. So you been bothered for a long time.
@@jehugarcia It's just more of the same misleading advertising to consumers. People who aren't knowledgeable will believe that somehow these devices are different than just having an inverter hooked up to something like their car battery or a huge bank of batteries or a UPS.
@@1ENDUSER "Generators" convert Gas/propane/fuel into heat that powers a generator that generates AC or DC electricity. So no, it's not the same.
They have a solar input so they can in fact "generate" energy
Can you do this with Bluetti ac200p?
Yeah, love your stuff Jehu!!! What do you have for us AC200P folk?
Jehu, what about Power Queen 12.8 v batteries for Bluetti? Heard something about bms in auxiliary battery may cut power off to Bluetti at low voltage?
But you cannot charge it via delta :)
Yes you can czcams.com/video/gZptxiZdR7I/video.html
First :D :D :D
2nd
Can I do this fur the ultra ecoflow
