Quick Answer
EcoFlow Delta Pro can power a refrigerator during outages, but with limitations. Its 3600Wh capacity can support a medium-sized refrigerator for a short period, but not an entire day. To determine the exact duration, consider the fridge's wattage and the Delta Pro's power output.
Capacity and Fridge Selection
When choosing a refrigerator for backup power, select one with a low to medium wattage (around 100-200 watts). The EcoFlow Delta Pro’s 3600Wh capacity can support a fridge like the 100W Danby compact refrigerator for approximately 36 hours. However, a larger fridge like the 200W Amana ARB2257RA may only last for around 18 hours on the same capacity.
Power Output and Sizing
To ensure reliable power to a refrigerator, consider the EcoFlow Delta Pro’s maximum power output of 1800W. This allows for a safe margin when powering a medium-sized fridge. When sizing your system, remember that multiple appliances will share the available power. For example, combining a 200W fridge with a 200W microwave might not be possible on the Delta Pro’s 1800W output.
Practical Considerations
For optimal performance, keep in mind the EcoFlow Delta Pro’s charging efficiency (around 90%) and the refrigerator’s idle power consumption (usually around 10-20 watts). This means that the actual battery capacity available will be lower than the advertised 3600Wh, and the fridge will consume more power when not in use. To optimize battery life and ensure a reliable power supply, consider using the EcoFlow Delta Pro in conjunction with an energy-efficient refrigerator and other appliances.
