    That’s the thing, it wasn’t. It’s an Ecoflow Delta Power Station, We tested boiling 1.5 liters of water off it and it used 15% of the capacity. Meanwhile, charging the phone overnight drained 30%.

      That doesn’t seem normal. Did you like use the phone all night otherwise it should charge up quickly and then not use any noticeable energy.

        You would think, but we went directly to bed with as many blankets and coats as we could find. Just plug it in and let it charge. The phone has a maximum power draw of maybe 20W when speed charging. Not exactly boiling water.

      I need to do some more formal testing, but I’ve found the discharge rate of my ecoflow to be baffling compared to my Jackery or a big Bluetti I have. My experience has been similar to yours.

      Which has surprised me because in general I’ve only heard good things about them.

        Did you find it was connected to temperature or other drop offs in capacity?
