to those wondering why prices on these and others are dropping -- price for both PV panel cells AND LiFe cells are dropping like a rock in China. Down below 18 cents / watt for panels in China, dropping 25% in the past month. Home depot and their seller is just getting ahead of the curve here, better to get the inventory out.

I think that the prices on these things are going to continue to drop. There's alot of competition in the market and they will get better and cheaper like most technologies

Not sure. The River 2 line is still fairly new and highly rated. Their solar panels are also great. I was browsing around for a deal for just the power station and found this so I grabbed it right away. This is the cheapest I've found for this combo.

I'm not sure why The Depot is gifting us these rock bottom prices either. I do believe, however, that Ecoflow and Bluetti are reacting to Jackery's wise (but late) decision to offer heavy metal batteries. Plus, Jackery's (previous model) Explorer 2000 model can now be had for around $1750 (on amazon) and the price includes Jackery's 200 watt solar panel. Lower prices and more LiFePo4 Jackerys now have the competition scrambling. The days of stealing Jackery market share are almost over!

I was REALLY thinking about the Delta 2 and extra battery for a out $1000 they had.

I have just purchased an EcoFlow Max Plus for $280 (refurbished) and decided I don't really have a use case for the Delta 2 and will wait another year or so for prices to drop.

$200-$300 is my limit for "that's neat, I might it".

I wonder if the panels could be returned...

Yep, they're trying to get sales before they get priced out of the market on these.

Expect every retailer to follow suit.

Delta is still leading series for Ecoflow. And HD selling it below rock bottom price, unlike any other store. Like HD sells new sets at the same or below price for refurbished sets. Does not make much sense to me, also no one else is price matching it.

There's a lot more nuance to these battery/inverter units than just "give me the best price per kilowatt-hour!"
