EcoFlow DELTA 3 Ultra Plus vs Bluetti EB3A
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
Bluetti EB3A costs $1760 less. Whether that gap is worth closing depends on what you need to run.
- EcoFlow DELTA 3 Ultra Plus holds 1046% more energy (3072Wh vs 268Wh), so it runs the same load proportionally longer.
- EcoFlow DELTA 3 Ultra Plus has 6000W more surge headroom (7200W vs 1200W) — that decides whether a fridge, pump or AC compressor will actually start.
- Bluetti EB3A is 75.4 lb lighter (10.1 lb vs 85.5 lb).
- EcoFlow DELTA 3 Ultra Plus is rated for 4,000 cycles vs 2,500 — meaningful if you cycle it daily.
EcoFlow DELTA 3 Ultra Plus
The Ultra's solar problem solved: same everything, but 1600W of PV input instead of 800W. That doubles your off-grid refill speed for $200.
Best for: Off-grid cabins and van builds that actually recharge from panels.
Where it falls short:
- $1999 approaches DELTA Pro 3 pricing
- 85.5 lb
Bluetti EB3A
The budget veteran. 268Wh at $239 with a 30-minute recharge — still one of the fastest-charging small units you can buy.
Best for: Budget campers who value fast top-ups between trips.
Where it falls short:
- 2500 cycles is the lowest here
- 268Wh empties fast under real load
