EF ECOFLOW 800W Alternator Charger, 3-in-1 Fast DC-DC Charger

Ship time was sooner than expected. Product is great quality and preforms as advertised. Using with a Ecoflow Delta 3 Plus. I think the cable to vehicle battery should be a 4 awg instead of the 6 awg supplied. If you will need more cable than what is supplied, I suggest you evaluate your situation using a DC Voltage Drop Calculator to find a proper guage to use. There are many of these calculators on the internet.

Received everything in the box I needed to hook up. Followed instructions, with wifi, used the app to connect my delta 2 max and software update before hooking anything up. Made sure the power supply was on first. Then hooked up the charger. Began working right away. I then did the software update to the charger. I also plugged in the ac charger to the cigarette lighter when running the vehicle for another 100 watts charging capacity. It automatically detects charge going to the battery (when the vehicle turns on), then starts charging. As for my 2024 delta 2 max it's compatible. I have an upgraded alternator in storage. So I can actually use the full capacity of charge.

So far it works well, couple caveats to ownership. The device requires WiFi to setup/update. I get the need for updates, but should be able to control/monitor the device without WiFi. Second caveat, depending on the vehicle, it can be very difficult to install. I decided to have a professional do it and it cost over $500, due to the thickness of the cable and lack of accessible ports through the firewall. After the install everything works well and is able to produce over 700 watts of power.

I purchased this to charge my EcoFlow Delta 3 and EcoFlow Glacier fridge in the cargo area of my Land Cruiser. The charging speed while driving has been phenomenal—within 45 minutes to an hour, both devices are usually sitting at 99%. I had a pro shop do a custom install to wire it in seamlessly, so it looks super clean and works like a charm. See my photos of the setup and build.Before this, I was using the Land Cruiser’s factory 240W outlet, which worked but took several hours to top everything off. Stepping up to 800W DC-DC charging is a night-and-day difference and completely worth the money.The only caveat to be aware of: despite the heavy-duty shielding on the wiring, the unit emits enough RF noise/frequency interference to occasionally trick my Land Cruiser into thinking the key fob isn't inside the vehicle. It might be partly due to Toyota's internal antenna placement, but it's definitely something to keep in mind if you drive a newer SUV. Still, I'm extremely happy with the performance

Good

Okay, so here’s the deal. This thing really should come with the adapter you need to hook it up to an EcoFlow Pro, or at least make it super clear that you need one. I went through all the work of wiring everything to the battery, and then found out I couldn’t even plug it in because the adapter wasn’t included.They don’t tell you anywhere that you specifically need an EcoFlow Pro to charge this, and it uses a weird, non-standard adapter. Honestly, I was kind of shocked at how many different adapters there are and how unclear the instructions are.Maybe my opinion will change once I get the right adapter and it works properly, but for now I’m giving it 3 stars. If you’re going to sell something like this, either include the adapter or make it very clear upfront what extra parts you need.

Out of the box first impressions: Unit is a little larger than I anticipated/visualized but I can make it fit. Did a dry-fit installation this afternoon. From start to commissioning was less than 2 hours. Now I still have to dress in the cable on the inside of the vehicle, but getting through the firewall of my Dodge Grand Caravan using an existing grommet was very easy thanks to the very flexible and slightly slippery cable loom. One of the easiest cable pulls this old cable guy has ever done. Just use a small stiff wire like solid ground or even a coat hanger and plenty of tape to push through.Connections to the battery were equally simple, the in-line fuse block is small enough to tuck in anywhere and I found a good spot next to the battery to route directly into the driver's side footwell. From there it was simple to run along the rocker panels to the back where I have my Ecoflow Delta Pro battery installed. I mounted the unit inside a homemade storage box sized to fit in the stow-and-go well with the Delta Pro right next to the box. The cable that runs from the alternator charger to the battery is fairly short but long enough for my installation. That may change as the build evolves.Commissioning was easy and straightforward. Starting the vehicle brought the charger online. As soon as I opened up the Ecoflow App it detected a new device, figured out what it is and right away began charging the Delta Pro! Of course nothing was set up so it jumped to the default 800 Watts current. I had to quickly reduce the max charge current to 25 Amps because I don't want to overload my alternator (I plan on upgrading to a heavy duty alternator soon). 25 A is still pumping in 350 Watts @ 14 volts input so plenty of power. In fact I will probably leave the max current between 25 and 40 A even with an upgraded alternator just to keep from pushing the batteries too hard, because slower charging is still better for the life of the batteries anyway.This minivan build is one of those things that just happens. I'm using a lot of parts and ideas I used for car camping in my Cherokee, and adding on a few like this. I like that the installation was so simple after working with more complicated setups that required a lot of different components that take up a lot of wall space. This was literally two cables and two boxes, one of which takes a fraction of the space of more complicated setups.

Unit stopped working after 2 months! Customer service is a joke, they read off a trouble shooting list of things to try, after none of that stuff solves the problem they tell you someone from another department will email you. No one sent a email, reached out multiple times keep getting the same answer someone will email you, this went on for about 3 weeks. All their responses are delayed as they are in a different country/time zone. Quality of the product is cheap and not worth the money. ECOFLOW will not stand behind its products when a problem arises. SPEND YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE, DO NOT BUY THIS TRASH. The effort Ecoflow put in to market to sale these units should go into quality/longevity and customer service who can actually help you and know about the things they are selling. Wish I could get my money back I'd choose another brand

Melhor solução para overland.Delta 3 + painel 160W e o carregador formam um conjunto perfeito para uma autonomia de pelo menos 1 semana.

Ótimo produto, a única falha é a ecoflow não informar que para ligar na Delta Pro tem que comprar um adaptador
