To date I've experienced two exploding Delta Pro's and looking at the forums of Dringlord, I'm not alone here.
The catastrophic failures occured in pass through (EPS) mode when with one the 230V (UK) output stopped. Trying to switch it back on led to a loud crack, a bright flash inside the top of the unit and smoke bellowing out. The second failure just "happened" whilst the unit was powering a couple of laptops. A loud crack and flash followed by smoke belching out. Both units displayed error code 121 and both have been replaced by Ecoflow,
Again, referring to Dringlord's site I'm one of a growing band who've had this dreadfully scary experience. At least one other user has had multiple Delta Pros go the same way.
Advice received was to ensure the very latest software version (1.0.0.96) is installed and there we have another anonmally: I have a total of FIVE Delta Pro's (not all in the same building) and NONE use any kind of external wizardry for switching. They only supply dedicated wall sockets for specific item so there's absolutely no chance of neutral grounding causing the issue (see Will Prowse's experience). When I now check the firmware every unit tells me it needs to be upgraded from v 0.3.6 to v 0.4.8 and there's no such animal! Even attempting to do this completely anomalous update results in the units simply disconnecting from my router(s) and flatly refusing to reconnect.
So something is wrong that certainly needs to be addressed. Ecoflow's update from v 1.0.0.89 to 1.0.0.96 was supposed to, in the words of Ecoflow, "optimise" the 121 error (whatever optimise means in this situation) and associated failures but who knows? What on earth does v 0.3.6 or 0.4.8 mean?
The plot thickens but you can see the thoughts of others here: https://www.dringlord.com/en/2022/07/07/deltapro-firmware-10096/
