EcoFlow DELTA 1300 vs Segway Cube 1000
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
Segway Cube 1000 costs $200 less. Whether that gap is worth closing depends on what you need to run.
- EcoFlow DELTA 1300 holds 23% more energy (1260Wh vs 1024Wh), so it runs the same load proportionally longer.
- Segway Cube 1000 has 1100W more surge headroom (4400W vs 3300W) — that decides whether a fridge, pump or AC compressor will actually start.
- Segway Cube 1000 is 2.5 lb lighter (28.4 lb vs 30.9 lb).
- Segway Cube 1000 uses LiFePO4 while the other uses NMC — roughly double the usable cycle life.
- Segway Cube 1000 is rated for 3,000 cycles vs 800 — meaningful if you cycle it daily.
If you plan to cycle the battery daily, think twice about the EcoFlow DELTA 1300. Its NMC cells are rated for 800 cycles against the LiFePO4 rival's longer life — over years of regular use that's the more expensive unit, whatever the sticker says.
The original DELTA that put EcoFlow on the map. Fast-charging and high-surge for its day, but the NMC battery and lack of USB-C now show its age.
Best for: Bargain hunters who find it heavily discounted.
Where it falls short:
- NMC — ~800 cycles
- No USB-C PD
- 2-year warranty
Segway's stackable home unit brings a strong 2,200W output at 1kWh and a modular design, though the cube form factor is bulkier than flat rivals.
Best for: Buyers who want a stackable, expandable home system starting at 1kWh.
Where it falls short:
- Bulky cube shape
- 3-year warranty
