Side-by-side on the specs that decide it — surge, capacity, runtime and price.
Both models' specs verified against manufacturer listings · Last updated
The short answer
EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus costs $3250 less. Whether that gap is worth closing depends on what you need to run.
- Anker SOLIX F3800 holds 275% more energy (3840Wh vs 1024Wh), so it runs the same load proportionally longer.
- Anker SOLIX F3800 has 5400W more surge headroom (9000W vs 3600W) — that decides whether a fridge, pump or AC compressor will actually start.
- EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus is 103.6 lb lighter (28.7 lb vs 132.3 lb).
Anker SOLIX F3800
This is where portable power stops being portable and starts replacing a standby generator. The 240V split-phase output is the headline feature.
Best for: Whole-home backup where you need 240V loads and can't run a gas generator.
Where it falls short:
- 132 lb — this is a wheeled appliance, not something you carry
- $3,999 puts it against real standby generators
EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus
The DELTA 3 with a $100 premium for smart-home integration and faster UPS switching. Same battery, same surge.
Best for: Home-office setups where a desktop or NAS can't tolerate a power blip.
Where it falls short:
- $100 more for features many buyers never use
- Same 1024Wh as the cheaper DELTA 3
