UGREEN PowerRoam 1200 vs EcoFlow DELTA mini
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 $200 less. Whether that gap is worth closing depends on what you need to run.
- UGREEN PowerRoam 1200 holds 16% more energy (1024Wh vs 882Wh), so it runs the same load proportionally longer.
- UGREEN PowerRoam 1200 has 400W more surge headroom (2500W vs 2100W) — that decides whether a fridge, pump or AC compressor will actually start.
- EcoFlow DELTA mini is 2.9 lb lighter (23.6 lb vs 26.5 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 mini. 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
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
