I bought an Ecoflow Delta Pro in Feb of 2023, and kinda of regret it now that I've learned more about Solar .
My biggest regret, other than cost, is if one part of it goes bad, you may have to replace the whole thing. If i had built the system from individual components, is if one part failed, I could just replace that part.
The AC charger on mine failed, and from research I can find that it's pretty common when using it in EPS mode with high loads. Ecoflow wouldn't warranty it because even though the unit was new, I bought from a non authorized retailer off eBay.
I was able to get a used part off eBay for 400 bucks. I was able to watch youtube and figure out how to get into the unit. I can say the units are well built.
I do like the app that comes with it. I do like that it's portable, but mine lives in a closet. Just for the money I spent on it and two extra batteries, I could have built a much larger system. And now since I had the AC charger failure, I don't dare plug it in to a wall outlet.
So, my advice is if buying one for home backup, you're better off if you have some technical skills building your own system
