Product Overview

The EcoFlow 800W Alternator Charger provides a fast and efficient way to charge a compatible EcoFlow portable power station while driving.

Traditional vehicle accessory sockets normally provide relatively low charging power. The EcoFlow Alternator Charger connects to the vehicle starter battery and uses surplus power generated by the alternator while the engine is running.

Its built-in DC-to-DC power converter regulates the available energy and can supply up to 800W to a compatible EcoFlow power station.

Under suitable operating conditions, the charger can add approximately 1kWh of stored energy in around 1.3 hours.

Actual charging output depends on the vehicle alternator’s available surplus capacity, vehicle voltage, engine speed, connected electrical systems, charger settings and the power station’s supported input limits.

The charger also provides reverse-charging and battery-maintenance functions. These modes allow a compatible EcoFlow power station to supply controlled power to a supported vehicle starter battery or RV house battery when the correct cables and compatible equipment are used.

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity allow users to monitor and manage selected functions through the EcoFlow App.

Three Operating Modes

Charging Mode

Charging Mode uses excess power generated by the vehicle alternator to charge a compatible EcoFlow portable power station while the engine is running.

Input Voltage: 11V to 31V
Maximum Input Current: 76A
Output Voltage: 40V to 60V
Maximum Output: 800W

Reverse Charging Mode

Reverse Charging Mode allows a compatible EcoFlow portable power station to supply power back to a supported vehicle starter battery or RV house battery.

Input Voltage: 40V to 60V
Maximum Input Current: 21A
Output Voltage: 13.8V or 27.6V
Maximum Output: 800W

Reverse charging may assist with restoring energy to a low vehicle or house battery.

The Alternator Charger should not be treated as a conventional direct-cranking jump starter.

Battery Maintenance Mode

Battery Maintenance Mode provides lower-power charging to help maintain the voltage of a compatible vehicle starter battery or RV house battery.

Input Voltage: 40V to 60V
Maximum Input Current: 3A
Output Voltage: 13.8V or 27.6V
Maximum Output: 100W

Direct XT150 Compatibility

The standard EcoFlow 800W Alternator Charger kit includes a 1m XT150 output cable.

It is designed for compatible EcoFlow products that include an XT150 extra-battery port.

Compatible products may include:

• EcoFlow DELTA 2
• EcoFlow DELTA 2 Smart Extra Battery
• EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max
• EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max Smart Extra Battery
• EcoFlow DELTA Max 2000
• EcoFlow DELTA Pro when used with the required separate adapter

Estimated Charging Times

Indicative charging times at full 800W output include:

EcoFlow DELTA 2, 1024Wh: Approximately 1.3 hours
DELTA 2 Smart Extra Battery, 1024Wh: Approximately 1.3 hours
EcoFlow DELTA 2 Max, 2048Wh: Approximately 2.6 hours
DELTA 2 Max Smart Extra Battery, 2048Wh: Approximately 2.6 hours
EcoFlow DELTA Max 2000, 2016Wh: Approximately 2.6 hours
EcoFlow DELTA Pro, 3600Wh: Approximately 4.8 hours

Charging times are estimates based on maximum output and suitable operating conditions.

Actual charging time may vary according to vehicle alternator capacity, vehicle electrical load, engine speed, temperature, cable installation, charging settings and the connected power station.

Important DELTA Pro Compatibility Note

The included XT150 output cable does not connect directly to the EcoFlow DELTA Pro.

Connecting the Alternator Charger to a DELTA Pro requires the separately sold:

EcoFlow DELTA Pro to Smart Generator Adapter

Confirm that the required adapter is included in any bundle before ordering.

Compatibility with Other EcoFlow Products

Some newer EcoFlow portable power stations may require a different model-specific output cable instead of the included XT150 cable.

Before ordering, confirm:

• The portable power station charging-port type
• Whether the power station supports alternator charging
• The required EcoFlow output cable or adapter
• The portable power station’s maximum accepted input
• Whether reverse charging is supported
• Whether battery-maintenance mode is supported

Products without a compatible XT150 port may require a separately sold cable or adapter.

Vehicle Compatibility

The EcoFlow 800W Alternator Charger is designed for suitable vehicles fitted with a compatible 12V or 24V starter-battery and alternator system.

Potential applications include:

• SUVs
• 4×4 vehicles
• Pickup trucks
• Vans
• Caravans
• Motorhomes
• RVs
• Overlanding vehicles
• Mobile work vehicles
• Vehicles with compatible auxiliary or house-battery systems

Petrol and diesel vehicles fitted with conventional alternators are generally the most suitable.

Some vehicles with smart alternators, advanced battery-management systems, hybrid systems or specialised electrical systems may produce reduced charging performance or require additional configuration.

Pure electric vehicles do not use a conventional engine-driven alternator and should not be assumed compatible.

Important Vehicle Compatibility Note

Before installation, confirm:

• Whether the vehicle uses a 12V or 24V electrical system
• Alternator type and rated output
• Available surplus alternator capacity
• Starter-battery type and condition
• Whether the vehicle uses a smart alternator
• Suitable cable-routing path
• Suitable mounting position
• Vehicle-manufacturer warranty requirements

The charger monitors vehicle voltage and normally begins charging only when suitable voltage conditions are detected.

Actual charging output may be lower than 800W if the alternator does not have sufficient surplus capacity.

Installation Requirements

The EcoFlow 800W Alternator Charger connects to the vehicle starter battery using the supplied fused input cable.

A typical installation includes:

• Connecting the supplied fuse cable to the vehicle input cable
• Connecting the fused positive cable to the vehicle starter battery
• Connecting the negative cable to an approved chassis ground or battery terminal
• Routing the input cable safely through the vehicle
• Connecting the vehicle input cable to the Alternator Charger
• Connecting the supplied XT150 output cable to the compatible EcoFlow product
• Securing the Alternator Charger in a suitable ventilated location

The charger should be installed away from:

• Excessive engine heat
• Exhaust systems
• Fuel lines
• Moving mechanical parts
• Sharp edges
• Areas where water may collect
• Airbags and vehicle safety systems
• Areas where luggage or equipment may damage the cables

Professional Installation Recommended

Professional installation by a competent vehicle electrician or installer is recommended.

Incorrect installation may result in:

• Cable overheating
• Electrical short circuits
• Blown fuses
• Damage to the vehicle electrical system
• Damage to the charger
• Damage to the connected power station
• Fire or personal injury
• Vehicle-warranty complications

Always follow the official EcoFlow installation instructions and the vehicle manufacturer’s electrical requirements.

Vehicle Warranty Note

Installation involves connecting directly to the vehicle starter battery and routing a high-current cable through the vehicle.

Before installation, confirm any warranty implications with the vehicle manufacturer, dealership or warranty provider.

Warranty conditions may differ between vehicle brands and installation providers.
