Hi there,
I'm trying to charge my EcoFlow Delta with my EcoFlow River. I achieve this using a AC-DC PSU with an XT60i-F connector with the middle pin shorted to neutral. This should in theory place the EcoFlow Delta within solar charging spec to be able to do 12v+ and 8a+ charges.
Issue I'm having is that I've tried multiple ways of "clamping" the current from the DC PSU. If the current is not clamped then the EcoFlow Delta will try to pull more current than what the PSU can handle and cause the PSU to shutdown and charging to stop to avoid damage.
1. I've gotten a DC-DC Step Down Converter with current clamp (this works but obviously these things dont last very long operating at constant 250w load).
2. I've gotten a Mean Well XFG-200-24-A LED DC constant power PSU. This should have the above functionality to clamp down on current built it but still it seems it charges and then immediately stops which anecdotally I believe to be that the EcoFlow Delta is asking for more amperage than what can be delivered i.e 13a+ this shouldn't be a problem for a constant power PSU that clamps current but it is in my case.
3. I've gotten a Victron 24v 5a Blue Charger that has a power supply mode that also clamps current to either 2a or 5a. Both of those settings does the exact same thing as the mean well, it starts solar charging and then stops.
Does anyone know what could be the issue here?
