Can you charge the battery with solar and use the unit powering a mini split AC unit at the same time? I have a 120v 12000 BTU unit and I want to run on sunlight.

I would probably get a bigger unit to run a mini split.

As a demo yes, as a workhorse no. Split probably pulls 800w-900w or more. So on a sunny day in some south region you wait until 10am. Then you turn on AC and can use it until 3pm if you have 1kw solar. After 3pm system is dead until next morning 10am.

As of right now it's a black box. No single technical review. It's only packaging and unboxing. Like D2 cannot charge simultaneously from AC and solar. Did they change it?

Sounds like it, from product page [ecoflow.com]:

Multi-Charging (AC + Solar), Full Charge in 56 Minutes with 1500W Input⁵

With 1500W max input, it takes 56 minutes to fully charge. During daily use, plug in both AC and solar to charge DELTA 3 Plus, prioritizing solar to save money.

Yep, this will run mini split max ~90mins with full battery, while max solar input is 1000W, there is not much room for cloudy day. Even with window ac of 400W consumption would be better to have more battery

If you mean, use Solar power + built in battery to provide 110v for AC unit, yes it will, for a short time. 1000 wh battery won't last long, even with solar supplimenting it.
The DC in on these Ecoflow units is very poorly done and you will have a hard time trying to get 500 watts from each input. Even if you could, that's 1000 watts total input with a bunch of solar panels. Your AC will probably draw more than that, probably closer to 1200-1500 watts so you'd be able to use it for 2 to 3 hours, max. It probably won't let you use solar + 110v house outlet at the same time to run your AC.

For my Delta 2, I connected it to 600 watt panels (2s3p) and I usually get around 350 watts out of them. When I plug it into the 110v house outlet, it stops using the solar completely, so keep this in mind. In fact, when my Delta is plugged into 110v input, it stops using the battery's power too and it starts to recharge the battery. I've seen my unit draw over 2000 watts from my home's 110v because it was powering a device on AC while trying to recharge its own battery.

Also, my Delta 2 doesn't know how to prioritize solar charging. I think they had the option in years ago but it's no longer in the app. My Delta can't do load shifting either, even though some Ecoflow's techs said it can.

Personally, I'd recommend Anker's Solix batteries because my Delta 2 and Delta 2 Wave (their portable AC) have both failed within a year of ownership and I have no trust in their brand anymore. Their customer service has been fine but their products gave me a lot of doubt.

I would think since you are not needing to move the unit around, you would be better off getting something like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09PYQBPVX and adding batteries. That would handle the charging and inverting for AC and you could add 2 batteries now and more later if you like. With the $165 eco worthy batteries it's more like 870 but you are getting more than double the battery as this and you have a more robust system.

You want to adjust the "Backup reserve" setting for your Delta 2:
Install the app.
Go into settings.
Select Energy Management.
Enable Backup reserve.
Adjust the slider to adjust how much back up reserve you would like the device to maintain. Use this is conjunction with the Discharge limit and Charge limit settings. When the delta 2 hits the reserve threshold, and your unit is plugged into AC, the unit will keep drawing from AC to maintain the threshold if no solar, or not enough solar, is present. When there's enough solar, the Delta 2 will charge via solar input only after a given period of time that's greater than the current load on the device. If there's not enough solar, the Delta 2 will augment with AC.

Hope that helps.

Anything like that that would also give you a standby ups option with fast (<12ms) switching?

Cool... so I can use this as a superior UPS to a CyberPower 1500VA/1000 watt pure sine wave UPS (CP1500PFCLCD)?

Owner of Delta 2 Max and Extra Battery for two years and I have similar experience. First year, their Energy Management feature did not work. Turning on Backup Reserve caused the device to power off AC randomly. Exchanged the unit for another one and same issue. Eventually, gave up using Lab Features. The app looks nice, but the software behind it is junk. This year, the battery degraded significantly, making me wonder if it is truly LFP. There have been multiple occasions when the battery would suddenly drop 50% due to the Battery Management System's (BMS) inaccuracy. Ecoflow's solution to this problem is to drain the battery to zero and charge it to 100% every few weeks. A friend bought their [Dumb] Home Panel system for a lot more and he threw the thing out cause nothing really worked. These clowns are not ready for prime time.

Wasn't this $550 plus a free waterproof bag costing $79. Why would anyone buy this at this price point?
