UGREEN PowerRoam 1200 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
UGREEN PowerRoam 1200 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.
- EcoFlow DELTA 1300 has 800W more surge headroom (3300W vs 2500W) — that decides whether a fridge, pump or AC compressor will actually start.
- UGREEN PowerRoam 1200 is 4.4 lb lighter (26.5 lb vs 30.9 lb).
- UGREEN PowerRoam 1200 uses LiFePO4 while the other uses NMC — roughly double the usable cycle life.
- UGREEN PowerRoam 1200 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.
A well-rounded 1kWh with an unusually high 1,000W solar input for its price — it recharges off panels faster than most rivals in the class.
Best for: Off-grid campers who prioritise fast solar recharging at 1kWh.
Where it falls short:
- 1,200W output trails the 1,800W class leaders
- Not expandable
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
