If you're shopping for residential outdoor power equipment-a portable generator, a backup station, or a whole-home system-the first question is usually capacity, but output, charging speed, and portability matter just as much. These four EcoFlow power stations span from a 720Wh unit for tailgating and tent camping to a 12kWh system that can back up heavy household loads. Choosing the right one means matching the battery to your appliances and your daily routine.
Quick Take
For a small campsite rig, the RIVER Pro keeps the setup simple. If you need more headroom for kitchen appliances and fast AC charging, the DELTA 3 Plus adds faster AC input and more outlets. For whole-home backup, the DELTA Pro provides an expandable base, while the DELTA Pro Ultra takes on the largest whole-home loads.
Listed Price Comparison
| Model | Listed Price | Price Bar |
|---|---|---|
| EcoFlow RIVER Pro 720Wh | USD 448.75 | |
| EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus 1024Wh | USD 598.75 | |
| EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3600Wh | USD 1,399.00 | |
| EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra 12kWh | USD 4,999.00 |
What to Weigh Before You Choose
Think about how you will recharge. The RIVER Pro and DELTA Pro both list AC wall, car, and solar charging modes, while the DELTA 3 Plus adds a very fast AC input and the DELTA Pro Ultra pairs solar-friendly charging with a battery designed for expansion. If you plan to run heavy appliances, AC output and surge capacity matter more than raw battery size; if you mostly need lights, phones, and small electronics, the portable models will cover more than enough of your day-to-day loads.

Product Notes
EcoFlow RIVER Pro 720Wh
The RIVER Pro is the entry point in this lineup, with a 600W inverter and two AC outlets, so small appliances and campsite lighting won't strain it. It supports X-Stream fast charging from 0 to 80 percent in about an hour, and you can recharge from an AC wall outlet, 12V car adapter, or solar panel. Its continuous AC output is lower than the other three models, so high-draw appliances may not run. For a portable outdoor companion, this is the simplest option.
EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus 1024Wh
The DELTA 3 Plus sits in the middle of this group with 1800W total AC output. It is a certified refurbished unit with LFP cells, and its listed cycle life reaches 4000 cycles to 80 percent. AC charging is rated at 1500W, so an 80 percent charge can happen in about 40 minutes. It offers six AC outlets and a car power port, giving you more connection options than the RIVER Pro. The trade-off is that its base capacity is below the two DELTA Pro models, so very large appliances or long outages may call for expansion packs or a larger unit.
EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3600Wh
The DELTA Pro is a certified refurbished home-backup-style power station with LFP cells and 3600W AC output. It has five outlets and a surge rating of 7200W, and X-Boost can extend output to 4500W for certain devices. It can take DELTA Pro Extra Batteries or a Smart Generator to grow the system from 3.6kWh up to 25kWh. Charging modes include AC wall, car, and solar. The limitation is that the full expandability requires extra batteries, so the listed unit by itself is a powerful starting point rather than the complete expanded system.
EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra 12kWh
The DELTA Pro Ultra is the highest-capacity model in this list, offered in certified refurbished condition with a 6144Wh base capacity. It can expand to 90kWh, and its AC outlets support both 120V and 240V with a total output of 7200W-enough to run heavy household appliances such as a 3-ton central air conditioner. It uses LFP chemistry with a listed cycle life of 3500 cycles to 80 percent. The trade-off is clear: the highest capacity and output in this group also carry the highest price, and the product ships in separate packages, so it's a deliberate whole-home investment.
