Home Depot has the Delta 2 available for $288 on clearance. It's in-store only, but they make it easy to spot on their site if you have a store chosen with one available at the clearance price.

My store had 5, now down to 4. No other stores nearby seem to have the same price markdown.
EcoFlow sells the same model as a refurb on eBay for $279:

Some traders on AliExpress seem to have this listed for the same price, but I'd rather get it from Home Depot, if possible. Good luck!

EcoFlow's Delta 2 is a portable LiFePO4 power station best suited for camping and short outage backup, especially for keeping a fridge, lights, or a TV running. It has enough capacity for practical mobile use, and the 1800W output with 2700W surge is enough for many everyday loads. The main limitation is that it is not a whole house backup system, and direct home panel use is not native or simple. Clearance pricing also varies widely by store, with reports ranging from the low 200s to the mid 400s.
The Delta 2 can serve as a short-term backup power source for outages by running essentials like a fridge and lights.
The clearance price can be low enough to make the purchase worthwhile when local inventory matches the deal.
The Delta 2 can be used with a generator-inlet style adapter to power 120V circuits through a panel during outages.
The Delta 2 can reportedly be used to power both legs of an electrical panel by routing two 120V legs through an L14-30 receptacle.
Connecting the Delta 2 directly to a home panel is difficult without proper installation and correct electrical setup.
The Delta 2 cannot output 240V split-phase power, so high-draw 240V appliances and heavy 1500W-1800W loads may not be practical.
Clearance pricing is unreliable because it depends on true in-store stock and ship-to-store orders may not carry the clearance price.
Battery health verification can be difficult on refurb units because cycle count and condition testing are not straightforward.

EcoFlow's own site shows 2700W for surge/peak power:

And in the specs section of their product page too (scroll down and click the Specs heading):

it won't power the 240v appliances (you should flip those breakers off), but it will power up the 120v circuits.
so, in a grid down situation, you should be able to plug your 1800w 120v power station into the main panel (or sub panel if you have one) via the generator inlet, which makes it convenient to not have to run extension cords all over the place.
just flip on any of your light switches, turn on the tv, or plug something into the outlet, and it should work. of course, you most likely will not be able to run a powerful microwave, air fryer, hair dryer, etc. on top of your base loads, so you will need to use a second power station dedicated speficically for these high draw loads of 1500w - 1800w.
(might need a neutral-ground bonding plug to do this.)
