Update: I made a mistake and the Ecoflow Delta 2 is $350 off $999: amzn.to/4biBPoL But DJI's is $300 off right now too: amzn.to/3W7uL9Z

ECOFLOW Portable Power Station Delta 1300, 1,260Wh is currently $749 (32% off) at Amazon. 25% more capacity at 25% lower cost.

I believe Max output is still less than the DJI, 2200 watts vs 2000

Great review... it's worth mentioning that both the Anker and EcoFlow equivalents have $350 instant save coupons attached to them. I know you mentioned the coupon and said that it must have been $1350, but the price listed is actually before the coupon is added at checkout, so they actually quite a bit cheaper than the DJI at the moment. Great to see DJI get into this space though, excited to see how they continue to develop that part of their market.

Your math is off. The ecoflow with $350 off is still 649. The dji is only $699 on sale so only $50 more and has a high peak watts. The ecoflow is not way cheaper.

@@FStoppersand hey you just showed us DJI is discounted too. So back to apples to apples comparison 😊. Appreciate you guys!

I used a Jackery 1000 with two 100 solar panels for the last two years. Its great to have all day power on shoots for fans, recharging batteries, etc.

One thing to note about these batteries is the difference between starting watts and running watts. I have a Bluetti with a 600 watt capacity which is plenty to run my refrigerator which uses about 100-150 watts but it overloads the battery/inverter when the compressor first kicks on. Moral of the story, always buy higher capacity/output than you think you need!

yep, many people install a soft start on their high load appliances for this reason.

Thanks for posting this! I’m watching now

75 kilowatt per day is crazy! In Lithuania in my apartment I use max 140 per month.

I wonder what brand battery cells they're using in this, because some are definitely better and safer than others.

What microphone and set up do you use to record your videos?

I love those non color graded videos

good info ! i have the ecco flow very happy with it but its a good suprise for DJI and if you need more juice why not .wished they had put some wheels on, would make it easy to carry outddoors

First question when looking at these things: Is it pure sine wave or modified sine wave. Everything else is secondary. You didn't even mention it.

Good to see more competition. I have an Anker 757, which is about ~1.3KWh, so very comparable. And it’s heavy, I don’t see these batteries going to 2KWh easy.

Is battery replaceable?

As soon as I saw this video, I pressed play wanting you to plug-in Puerto Rico’s electrical grid, lol

I kept thinking a 2000 watt microwave; that could heat your food from across the room?!? Right on your microwave keypad it says 1200 watts. (2:39). Microwaves can be misleading as an example as they are rated anywhere from 300 to 400 watts up to 1800 watts. I would love to know if your microwave is inaccurate or the DJI’s meter is wrong. Do you have an external power meter or amp meter to let us know if it’s accurate? Also would love to know the recharge time. The EcoFlow have crazy chargers in them and top up very quickly. What’s your experience recharging the pack on AC? Thanks for your videos.

U what? 75kWh a day? How many people live in that house? We are 8 people and use around 40-45 a day. That sounds super high for a normal household. Do you run a bunch of servers or is it mainly just A/C blasting all day?

@FStoppers

Ай бұрын

Where do you live and what’s your average outdoor temp? I use about the same power as Lee if not more. It’s 80-90 degrees outside and we have AC running all day to keep humidity out and the temp around 74. -P

I didn't get your point about the powerwall thing? Don't you need one that can power the house for like 30 seconds, because that's more than enough for the generator to take the job. Something like that shouldn't cost that much at all. Solar companies sell tons of different options for example.

@ItssBrian

Smaller cheaper batteries fill the gap. If he still needs the generator anyway a powerwall is overkill.

@FStoppers

Ай бұрын

@ItssBrian Yeah I'm in the same boat as Lee here in PR. The issue with the powerwall is it's not really enough to power a whole house all day with AC running which means you gotta either buy multiple powerwalls AND you need a full roof top of solar panels. Our neighbors doing this are easily spending $70,000 for setups like this but I'm still not sure they can AC the whole house from sun down to sun up when the solar can be charging again. I believe most people are able to AC like 2 bedrooms for 12 hours. That's why having a 20kw generator is still the best option IMO. During the last hurricane, power was pre preemptively cut off before the storm hit and we had like 3 days of heavy overcast skies. I'm not even sure my friends with solar were able to get their power walls charged enough to run normal loads during the storm. What Lee needs to do is figure out a way to get this DJI system plugged into his home grid so that it becomes the whole home battery backup for the 10 seconds between the generator turning on. Of course the house can’t be running the drier, hot water heater, and major appliances. Maybe that load is still too much though? -Patrick

Just to put into context the Tesla powerwall at 13kW isn't big enough but you're considering a 1kW portable battery?

The question is how they got that battery into Puerto Rico??

Can confirm, my power bill in PR is about $600-800 a month with power at $.25-$30 kWh. It’s super expensive and the weather is always hot so we never get those days where you just open the windows and keep the AC off. I mean some locals do that but it’s still far too hot and humid for me to do that. Our homes are made of concrete so even at 75 degrees outside it’s still like an oven under the sunlight. -P

​​@@FStopperswhy not just add solar then. You can save some money and pay off the solar in savings quickly.

@FStoppers

Ай бұрын

@@EvanWasHere We've done the math and the pay off period for solar in PR is greater than the states because we get a lot more sun, but it's still like 7 years to break even. The solar systems we would need for our energy uses is around $70,000. Average bill is $600-$900 a month so roughly $9k a year in power. $70k divided by $9k = 7.7 years. And this math is if your solar/battery system runs your house 100% which I don't think it can so you still have to pay a power bill of probably $300 a month which delays the pay off time even more. On top of the financial debate, you gotta hope a hurricane doesn't destroy your panels and if it does, hopefully insurance covers them. Also your concrete roof is going to leak guaranteed, and when you have all those panels on your roof, it makes sealing your roof a bigger pain in the ass. Ideally you'd have a solar field but who has land for that? Maybe Lee will correct anything I have wrong but it's just easier IMO to get the $20,000 generator, pay the high power rates, and not deal with solar. We've also had major surges when the power does come on and I've known at least 5 people who had their entire solar system fried when each individual panel's inverter blew up. If that's not covered by insurance than that's a HUGE headache and potential financial burden. I don't know if anyone has had a generator blow up that I know of. -Patrick

I hope this video sheds some light on why Ah and mAh is very misleading.

At the moment the battery is on sale for $699 - not bad.
