I just purchased a Ecoflow Delta 1300. It won't start my Chinese diesel heater. Ecoflow Delta tripped an internal circuit at 110watts dc. I was using the 12v dc output to power the diesel heater. Nothing else was on. The diesel heater needs about 10amps at startup to fire up the glow plug then runs at about 2-3 amps. Any suggestions on a work around?
 
tiny 12v battery or play with some supercaps as a buffer till the glow plug shuts off
 
Manual says 8 A max @ 13.6 V. If you don't have supercaps, etc., try to increase the heater's supply cord length to limit inrush current. Wasteful for normal running though.
