How would I figure out if this could power a large fridge?
Look at what the wattage your fridge needs to start up and run. I've very sure it would looking at the wattage and once the fridge is going they really don't use much energy
How would I figure out if this could power a large fridge?
This unit will power your big refrigerator (unless it's 220v), but not sure for how long. The best way to determine how long it will power your refrigerator is to install a "Kill-A-Watt" meter between the refrigerator plug and the wall outlet and see how many watts it consumes when running and divide by 1,000. This will help determine if this power station is adequate for your needs, or if you need a larger power station.
Was considering buying this and then pairing with a 48v server rack battery. Saw this post on Reddit about updated FW blocking it now. Anyone else have this experience?

I planned to do the same with a different EcoFlow power station however the time it takes to switch as a backup power was too slow (although still in the milliseconds range) compared to a traditional battery backup.
I have 2 of these they have bailed me out numerous times here in Texas with all the storms. Yesterday we didn't have power for 12 hours,I have one in office connected to the essentials..internet network,laptop,security cameras,tv,lamp they whole room doesn't skip a beat. 2nd on powers the Samsung fridge no problem. 12 hours without power only had to charge them up once. So I got about 6-7hrs out of them. I pull my big Dual fuel Westinghouse 6k generator out and charged at 1500 watts takes about 45min. It got hot so I left generator on for portable a/c to have a cool office. They save me every time !!!

What portable A/C do you recommend using with these? I've heard of using 12V ones designed for RvS.

I've never used one on Ecoflow I'm thinking it pulls too much wattage. I have a roll around LG from HD that I run 8-10 hours on my big generator. Just use the Ecoflows for home office and fridge. It pulls major wattage on coffee maker and air fryer,so don't even want to risk truing to run a A/C unit

I set mine up 3 weeks ago. Drew 1kw window ac for 3 hours before I had to cancel test
It's getting harder to pick this over the Anker S2000 at $599 (at 30c/kwh) which is almost 2x the capacity, for marginally more weight, has 50% more cycles to 80%, and has much much lower AC and idle power draw - it was a big deal when this first came out and IIRC they were able to half it, but it's still almost 3x the draw of the S2000. If you really need the slightly larger inverter this has, or if you have lots of Ecoflow products then this makes sense. Oh and this is sold by Costco so hopefully their generous return policy isn't ever needed but if it is, that's worth something. Otherwise, even at 41.9c/kWh the price of this Delta 3 Plus is clearly being cut to try and sell as many of their remaining stock as they can.
Probably what the price should actually be for this but I think they are clearing this one out, just not a lot of room for it in the market and in their clunky delta line up.
Thinking of grabbing one to plug my main sump pump into full time so I have some coverage when power goes out. Seems like it should both handle the load and provide decent runtime depending on how much it's really running. Anything I'm missing vs going with a more traditional deep cycle marine battery backup approach? This seems smaller lighter and more self contained. Being able to monitor the ecoflow remotely is also a benefit over a lot of the battery backup solutions.

I'm new to power banks. I do have one 195W solar panel already
