EcoFlow DELTA mini vs EcoFlow DELTA 1300
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 mini costs $400 less. Whether that gap is worth closing depends on what you need to run.
- EcoFlow DELTA 1300 holds 43% more energy (1260Wh vs 882Wh), so it runs the same load proportionally longer.
- EcoFlow DELTA 1300 has 1200W more surge headroom (3300W vs 2100W) — that decides whether a fridge, pump or AC compressor will actually start.
- EcoFlow DELTA mini is 7.3 lb lighter (23.6 lb vs 30.9 lb).
Neither of these will start a sump pump or well pump — both surge below the ~3,400W those motors need. If home backup with pumps is your use case, look at higher-surge models instead of either of these.
A compact NMC unit with a surprisingly strong 1,400W output for its size — but the 800-cycle battery means it won't age like the LiFePO4 field.
Best for: Buyers who want strong output in a light unit and won’t cycle it daily.
Where it falls short:
- NMC — ~800 cycles
- 2-year warranty, 300W solar input
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
