Picture this: the power goes out during a storm and your refrigerator starts warming up while you’re scrambling for flashlights. Or you’re deep into a camping trip and your phone dies just when you need to check trail maps. Maybe you’re working remotely from an RV and your laptop battery hits 5% with two hours of work left.
If you’ve found yourself in any of these situations, you know the anxiety of losing power at the worst possible moment. A portable power station eliminates that stress entirely. Ecoflow has established itself as the global leader in portable power solutions and right now the Delta 2 (1800W AC output, 100W USB-C charger) is available for $429, down from $699, representing a 39% discount for Prime Big Deal Day. The newer Delta 3 offers marginally more power but costs nearly twice as much which makes the Delta 2 the smarter choice for most people.
The Delta 2 recharges seven times faster than other portable power stations. Simply plug it in via a wall socket and you’re going from dead to 80% charged in only 50 minutes, and full charge in 80 minutes. This kind of fast-charging changes the dynamics of the use of the device. When you’re in the middle of a power blackout, you can rapidly charge it when, for instance, electricity is back for just minutes and use that stored power for hours afterwards.
The 1800W AC output is powerful enough to power virtually any household appliance or electric tool. You’ll have the ability to power up a full-sized fridge, microwave, coffee machine, power drill or even space heater. There are 15 diverse outlets for all types of connections that you’ll ever want: household AC prongs, USB-A connections, a 100W USB-C fast-charge connection for notebooks and tablets, and an automobile outlet for automobile-engineered equipment. Its inclusivity includes the use of multiple devices simultaneously without adapters or converters.
The 1024Wh LiFePO4 battery chemistry is the key technological leap forward: LFP batteries endure orders of magnitude more cycles than typical lithium-ion cells and this model is rated for more than 3000 recharges. Realistically, that’s equivalent to being able to completely charge and discharge the Delta 2 more than 3000 times before it drops to 80% of its original storage capacity.
Worth special mention is the expandable capacity: The base model itself only has 1kWh of storage but you can add on additional battery modules for up to 3kWh of usable capacity. This expandable aspect lets you begin with just the base model and upgrade when you want, rather than buying an oversized system to start with. For small camping or for emergency backup, 1kWh is enough for the majority of applications.
At $429, this package puts serious portable power within reach for Prime Day. Thanks Amazon!
