EcoFlow DELTA 3 Max (2048Wh)

On one charge the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Max (2048Wh) runs a typical refrigerator about 17 hours, and runs an older furnace blower about 8.7 hours.

Buy it if you want 2,048 Wh for a fridge through a day-long outage and will never add a battery.

Skip it if you may add a battery later: it takes none. The EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max has the same 2,048 Wh battery and takes extra batteries, for $150 more today. It has no 240 V for a well pump. What to buy instead.

Price: $899 on Amazon (checked November 1, 2026).

Planning figures: a typical refrigerator averages about 83 W; an older furnace blower averages about 182 W. Yours may use less or more; the range is in the table below. How long other power stations run a refrigerator. A furnace blower is wired in: it needs an inlet or transfer switch fitted by an electrician.

Check you have the right model. Not the same as: EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max (the same battery and output); EcoFlow DELTA 3 Max Plus (2048Wh) (a similar name, a different model: 2,048 Wh, 3,000 W). Read the model name on the unit’s label, not the box or the listing.

Not the recalled EcoFlow DELTA Max (2000). CPSC recalled it on October 9, 2025; it is a different product. The recalled unit has 'EFD310' and 'EcoFlow DELTA Max (2000)' on the label underneath. Read the CPSC notice.

What independent tests measured

  • Power it uses just to stay on: 27 W with the AC outlets on and nothing plugged in (The Solar Lab).
  • What we use: 1,656 Wh usable at a typical 300 W load; every hours figure on this page counts the idle draw (store estimated: no test at a stated load). The one rule we use.

How long will the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Max run a fridge, CPAP, sump pump or furnace?

One appliance at a time, from the 2,048 Wh battery, counting the power it uses just to stay on (1,656 Wh usable at a 300 W load). Fridge figures come from ENERGY STAR’s list of certified models, plus a 20 W allowance for the power station’s own draw and doors opening. CPAP with the humidifier on is the middle of the 30–100 W a CPAP with a heated humidifier draws; humidifier off is ResMed’s own 12 V figure for an AirSense 10 on ResMed’s DC cord. A night is 8 hours. Pumps and blowers switch on and off, so their average draw is far below their running watts; the hours are hours of outage, and the range runs from one that runs often to one that rarely does. A furnace blower is wired in: it needs an inlet or transfer switch fitted by an electrician. It has no 240 V output, so it cannot run a 240 V well pump (needs 240 V); a 120 V well pump is a different case, so check the pump’s label.

The range behind that

This is a 2,048Wh battery with 2,400W of output, which means it gives back about 1,656 watt-hours at a typical household load (estimated) and can run anything drawing up to 2,400 watts at once.

It runs indoors and makes no fumes. Of the 16 household loads we track, it can run 14 for at least part of a day. It would keep a refrigerator going for 12–23 hours, from a hard-working fridge to an efficient one.

Hours of use on one charge. Typical is the middle of our range for that appliance; the range runs from a hard-working unit to an efficient one. Short-burst loads (microwave, coffee maker, garage door) show running time at full power instead. “Starts it” means the peak output covers even a hard-starting one.

Recall screen

No recall names this model — but a similarly named product was recalled

No recall names the DELTA 3 Max. CPSC 26-010 (2025-10-09) recalls the EcoFlow DELTA Max (2000), model EFD310, a different product.

This check cannot clear your own unit. Most recalls cover only certain serial numbers. Read the model and serial number off the label on the unit itself, then check the maker's recall page before you use it, sell it, or buy it.

Use the CPSC recall search.

How we know the screen was not simply blind

Finding nothing only means something if the search could have found something. So we searched the same records for this brand and got 1 recall. That proves the screen can see this brand, so finding nothing for this model is a real result.
