Hello friends at EcoFlow!👋Any leftover photovoltaic power during the day can be used to boil water.🚿☀️After connecting my-PV to the EcoFlow home energy system, you can manage compatible heating rods within the EcoFlow App, making the solar energy at home more useful.Currently, it only supports OCEAN 2 and OCEAN 2 Single-Phase along with AC ELWA 2.💡 What can I do after binding my-PV?☀️ Use the remaining electricity to boil waterIn solar mode, the heating rod uses residual photovoltaic electricity to heat water to the preset solar target temperature.🌡️ Manage heating as neededIt supports two modes: manual mode and solar mode. Manual mode supports boost heating, and turning on the heating switch quickly heats the water to the preset water temperature.⏰ Automate tasksThere are two types of automated tasks: timed heating to the minimum temperature and timed sterilization.📊 See clearly where the electricity comes fromOpen the data dashboard to check heating rod electricity usage by daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly views.📲 Ready to give it a try?Bind AC ELWA 2 in accordance with the guidelines, set the temperature, and add it to redundant PV priority. Once added, the device will switch from manual mode to solar mode.📸 It's all set up. Let's take a look!Post a screenshot of the bound device in the comments and tell us:Is it just set up, or has residual electricity been used for heating?If you're already using it, you can also post a screenshot of the data dashboard and write about something you've noticed so far.Still in the setup? Tell us where you're stuck and what you see in the app, and the community can discuss it together.Before sending screenshots, please conceal your personal information or device SN.Come and show off your photovoltaically heated water! ☀️👇

I normally use a bigger toolbar for my delta 3 classic sometimes not to draw attention to it with ecoflow emblazoned on the delta 3 bag. But today I used a smaller tool bag with the river 3 plus and it worked really well and was really protected.

Just received my two Delta 3 refurbished units from EcoFlow Canada online. First units looks brand new with face plate sticker still on while second unit shows slight wear but still looks great. Both seem to work just fine fine. Savings for this pair was also great. The one hiccup was the Brand new looking Delta 3 unit came without the AC cord? Both units claim to be Certified Refurbished with full warranty. Quick call to customer service and they promise to send me one soon… will just use the one cord for both in the interim. Still I am happy with the dual purchase with the savings and customer service aid.

​Good evening community! Tonight I was measuring the physical layout of our garage roof to see how many 500Wp class modules can fit neatly without overlapping the edge trim. Since 500Wp+ panels are significantly larger (around 2.0 to 2.2 meters in length) compared to standard 400W panels, calculating the exact spacing for mounting rails and wind load brackets is crucial. I am planning to place them in a low-profile landscape orientation to keep wind resistance down during stormy weather. I havent drilled the mounting rail holes yet becuase I want to verify the exact distance between the roof joists first. Has anyone here mounted heavy 500Wp panels on a flat garage roof? Would really apprecate your rail placement advice!

What made you choose EcoFlow over the other power station brands? 🤔I’m curious to hear what everyone else’s deciding factor was, especially with brands like Bluetti, Anker and others offering some pretty impressive units these days.For me, I eventually came to EcoFlow because it was the combination of a few things rather than just one feature.1. Fast charging was probably the biggest one. Being able to recharge so quickly makes a huge difference when you actually use the unit regularly.2. The UPS capability was another big factor. Having a powerful power station that can basically sit there ready to take over when needed is pretty convenient, especially for home backup.3. The design and overall convenience played a part too. I liked the idea of having something that looked and felt like a well thought out piece of technology, rather than just a big battery in a box.So for me it was really the combination of fast charging, powerful performance, UPS and convenience that pushed me towards EcoFlow.But I’m interested in hearing other people's reasoning. What made you choose EcoFlow over Bluetti, Anker, Jackery or another brand? Was it a particular feature, price, reliability, ecosystem, or just something about the overall package?

Currently have the Delta Pro Ultra with 3 batteries, Delta 2, Delta 2 max and an extra battery. DPU is wired to my house and has been a life saver for power outages. Will be adding more solar eventually but currently have enough to get me through outages. The Delta 2 and the Delta 2 max are mainly used for my bbq setup for Sunday football games. Love the Ecoflow products and will be a customer for life!

Hey everyone! 👋As summer arrives, heat waves are becoming more frequent. Many of us want to stay cool while keeping our energy costs under control. So, here’s the big question: How do you save energy at home?☀️ Do you block direct sunlight with curtains and run your EcoFlow setup only when needed?📱 Do you monitor real-time power consumption in the EcoFlow app and switch off idle devices?☀️ Do you recharge your unit with EcoFlow solar panels each day?Let’s share practical summer energy-saving ideas and help one another reduce energy use at home. 💡Share your tips in the comments below. 💬#SummerEnergySaving

Once the sun angle in the frozen north makes it viable to recharge my stations with solar panels on a regular basis, I use my stations a lot for running household items. Last week I was recharging a Delta 3 Plus and Delta 3 Max Plus on a partly sunny day. Because of the conditions, I was unsure if they would get charged all the way. The rigid panels I have on my shed are 320w each. Each panel is run with its own wiring to its own connectors. That means I can I can use the panels however I like, depending on what station(s) I am charging; run individually, some in series or some in parallel. In this case, each of the stations had 1 panel hooked into each of the PV inputs (both stations have 2 inputs). So, each station had the possibility of getting 640w input in perfect weather conditions. However, with the cloudiness, much of the time they were only getting 130w-200w total.Shortly before 3 pm, I looked on my app and some some outstanding numbers. Over 700w were going into both stations!!! Now, this was a short term effect, when the sun had broken thru the clouds, but it was awesome to catch. The overproduction of the panels was caused by several factors; colder air temperature at 40*F, there was a fresh snow fall to create some reflection, and the "edge effect" from the sun interacting with the clouds (this was probably the biggest factor). Can't complain with an 18% overage of production from the panels, and it certainly helped get the stations fully charged that day.

As the title states, we are newly getting started on our family camping journey and would like something that’s great to start with that won’t need to be replaced for awhile, but also not TOO expensive since we are building up our camping gear collection. What do you recommend?
