EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 solar panel setup

The EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 takes up to 2,600 W of solar through a high-voltage solar input (30–150 V, 15 A, 1,600 W) and a low-voltage solar input (11–60 V, 20 A, 1,000 W). The quickest refill from a maker panel on sale today: 3 × BLUETTI SORA 500, 2 in series on the high-voltage solar input, plus 1 panel on the low-voltage solar input, which brings it to 1,500 W and refills its 4,096 Wh in about 2.7 h of full sun.

The solar inputs

EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3: solar input limits from EcoFlow
high-voltage solar input 30 to 150 V open-circuit, 15 A max, 1,600 W, XT60 plug
low-voltage solar input 11 to 60 V open-circuit, 20 A max, 1,000 W, XT60i plug
All inputs together2,600 W (EcoFlow: "2600W total, 2 ports (High-PV 1600W Max + Low-PV 1000W Max)")

Two panels in series add their voltages; strings in parallel add their currents. A panel's open-circuit voltage (Voc) rises on cold, bright mornings, so each arrangement below is checked with the panel's own temperature coefficient, or -0.35% per °C where the maker publishes none, at -10 °C (14 °F). Strings in parallel are kept within the input's current figure; a single string that could give more is held back by the input itself.

Every maker panel we track, on the DELTA Pro 3

12 of the 18 panels fit, fastest refill first. Each uses every input that can take it; the hours are full sun, from empty.

"Full sun to refill" is the ideal floor: the station taking its input limit every hour. Panels rarely deliver their rating, so the 70% column is closer to a good day, and a usable day holds four to six hours of full sun in most of the US. Panels whose maker does not name an MC4 plug are counted one to an input, since they link to others only through the maker's own adapters.

Cables between panel and station

EcoFlow does not list a solar cable in the station's own box, so check the panel's box or buy the cable for its plug.

What a day of sun puts back

Watt-hours back in a day, at a 70% panel yield and the station's input limit. Winter in the northern US gives about 3 hours of full sun, a clear summer day in the Southwest 6 or more.

Type the figures from the panel's label or spec sheet (they are given at 25 °C). The check assumes MC4 plugs, so panels can go in series or parallel.
