System standby power: 15W (23.6% of total draw)
Provides 2× CEE 7/3 (230V) (120V 60Hz).
Pure sine wave inverter output. Safe for all standard household appliances.
Electronic/resistive load with 1.1× start-up profile (98.1% surge margin).
Wall AC fast charge at up to 1200W (50m to 80%, 80m to 100%).
Safe envelope verified: Starting surge (50W) remains comfortably below the 2700W surge trip line, with steady-state operation settling into the safe continuous zone at 45W.
About 16.1 hours on AC power, with the home network rack averaging 45 W (Fiber ONT + Wi-Fi 6 router + 4 PoE IP security cameras + NVR recorder (45 W)). The EcoFlow DELTA 2 then draws about 64 W from its battery, including 15 W for the inverter itself. Best case: about 21.6 hours (Fiber ONT optical modem + managed 8-port gigabit switch (30 W)). Worst case: about 10.7 hours (Managed 16-port PoE switch + 8 cameras + local NAS storage server (75 W)).
Yes. Using the 12V DC Regulated Terminal / Barrel Power Kit on the EcoFlow DELTA 2's 12 V car socket, the home network rack runs about 23.4 hours instead of 16.1 hours on AC, 46% longer, because it skips the inverter's conversion loss and its 15 W idle draw.
That simple division gives 22.8 hours, but the EcoFlow DELTA 2's inverter draws about 15 W whenever its AC outlets are on. At this light load that's 24% of everything the battery supplies, and inverter conversion losses take a further share. EcoFlow doesn't publish an idle figure and we haven't found an independent measurement, so this uses our 15 W estimate.
On wall power: about 50 minutes to 80% and 80 minutes to full (EcoFlow figures). With its maximum 500 W of solar input connected, expect about 400 W in full sun, so a full recharge takes roughly 2.7 hours of full sun, so it can refill in a single day with 4 peak sun hours.
It can act as a backup supply: with the home network rack plugged into the EcoFlow DELTA 2 and the EcoFlow DELTA 2 plugged into the wall, it switches the home network rack to battery in about 30 ms when the grid fails (EcoFlow calls this EPS mode).
