EcoFlow DELTA Pro vs Anker 535 PowerHouse
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
Anker 535 PowerHouse costs $2770 less. Whether that gap is worth closing depends on what you need to run.
- EcoFlow DELTA Pro holds 603% more energy (3600Wh vs 512Wh), so it runs the same load proportionally longer.
- EcoFlow DELTA Pro has 6450W more surge headroom (7200W vs 750W) — that decides whether a fridge, pump or AC compressor will actually start.
- Anker 535 PowerHouse is 82.3 lb lighter (16.7 lb vs 99 lb).
- EcoFlow DELTA Pro is rated for 3,500 cycles vs 3,000 — meaningful if you cycle it daily.
EcoFlow DELTA Pro
The previous-generation flagship, now mostly worth buying on discount. The Pro 3 beats it on nearly every axis.
Best for: Bargain hunters who find it steeply discounted against the Pro 3.
Where it falls short:
- 99 lb and 165-minute recharge — both beaten by the Pro 3
- Aging platform; expect it to be phased out
Anker 535 PowerHouse
A durable half-kWh unit for devices and light loads. Dependable, but the low output and slow charging make it a device-first companion.
Best for: Campers charging phones, laptops and lights, not appliances.
Where it falls short:
- 500W output is device-scale
- 120W solar input, slow recharge
