I am waiting for delivery of this but the AC invertor phantom power consumption has me worried ☹I saw two other phantom power tests conclude that this unit is terribly inefficient using 40watts per hour and would self drain in 24 hours with the inverter left on. So obviously conclude that 40watts of solar charging is needed just to keep the inverter on.Watch G
I did a review on this EcoFlow Delta 3 Plus power station a few months ago and overall it's a fantastic power station. Probably one of my more favorite ones except for one glaring flaw that I had in that test and that was the parasitic drain on the inverter. It was terrible. It was the worst uh parasitic drain that I've had on any power station here on the channel.Watch A
