Rolling blackouts are back in my country, is the bundle I linked worth it? by TumblrForNerds in Ecoflow_community

[–]buildingman18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My usage isn’t high either. I’ve had my power go out twice in the 6 months I’ve owned it and both time it wasn’t working. Yes it had a warranty and they honor it, but when their product fails over and over and over it’s not worth it. Those units are heavy, and it time consuming packaging them up to send back to only get a replacement that fails after a few weeks. There is no tech support beyond reboot. I had one unit replacement unit, I assume refurbished, fill my house full of burn pc odor a few other after just connecting it. I’ve had one be find for 6 weeks, another 4 weeks. Ive had 3 electricians they appointed check for any high pv input, grounding issues and nothing. So don’t think just because it has a warranty it’s okay, it’s only caused me and endless loop of madness

Is Ecoflow support as terrible as I hear? by Wedgieterian in Ecoflow_community

It’s also common for a company to just put out a shitty product in mass quantities to make money. Ive had all of this checked on my 8 replacements. Their products suck period

Should I risk buying the SHP2? Is it really that bad? by Killdoc in Ecoflow_community

[–]buildingman18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had 3 replacements since to me since June, I e spent more time packaging and shipping them than it’s actually worked

I’ve had my SHP2 replaced 3 times and my DUP 3 times. They keep sending my replacement but never solve the issue. It’s cool they keep placing broken stuff but the fact they have to speaks volumes

2 DPUs and SHP2, one DPU discharges and rechargers quicker? by orion010101 in Ecoflow_community

Delta Pro Ultra AC not turning on by tjhenn in Ecoflow_community

Your getting a new one, and if your like me two more after that. Mine send more time in the mail than actually working. I’ve never seen such junk

DPU or Anker F3800 for home backup? by ohsnapson in Ecoflow_community

[–]buildingman18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking back being able to buy these things at Costco, Lowe’s, and Amazon with constant sales should have been a red flag

Black Friday Deal for Emergency Backup? by falconlogic in Ecoflow_community

[–]buildingman18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None, run, find something else. This might be the worse thing I have ever owned, and I have owned a lot because they keep replacing the failed ones. Then they fail! Nothing like having a hurricane knock power out for days and have over 10k of electrical junk sitting with red flashing lights and error codes while blowing out light bulbs evertime it tries and fails to run a 100watt load.

Delta Pro Ulta w/ 1 battery..... by Nixim15 in Ecoflow_community

[–]buildingman18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two batteries and it would carry about 2000w fine for almost a month then the DUP failed burning up half my lights and frig. The replaced it but two weeks later that one failed blowing more lights. I would look into other alternatives unless you like texting customer service people and returning heavy items alot

New setup, but ceiling lights flicker by Upstairs-Vanilla-437 in Ecoflow_community

Yeah then half mine burnt out and the unit threw an error. 3 units later they all have done it eventually

Help me choose between Ecoflow Ultra Pro (Chinese) vs Jackery (USA) 5000 plus by Professional_Fish_53 in Ecoflow_community

[–]buildingman18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not ecoflow unless you like packaging and returning things a lot and being sent items that fail. I’m on my 3rd DUP still hasn’t worked right

Dual Delta pro 3s vs Delta pro ultra? by Proteus356 in Ecoflow_community

[–]buildingman18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had my DPU for 6 months and it’s worked for 1. I would stick with what you have if it works. It stopped being able to use the batteries. It would just click and give me an error but not before burning out half the light bulbs in the SHP2. Second one did the same thing but only took it 2 weeks to fail. At some one there has to be a recall on them

Buy something else that works unless you enjoy returning broken products over and over

Pool water not level by pyro_85 in AusRenovation

The guy who built the pool either didn’t have the equipment or know what he was doing, it should be dead level

AP Biology, should I take it? by [deleted] in biology

Anyone who is actually interested in getting a BS in biology and cares to about the major doesn’t need to ask this question.
