How long will an EcoFlow DELTA Pro Ultra run LED Christmas tree lights (500 bulbs)?
About 3.1 days — 3 days 2 h typically, from 2 days 22 h in the worst case to 3 days 7 h at best. That assumes LED Christmas tree lights (500 bulbs) pulling 35 W continuously, plus the station's 25 W AC mains socket overhead — 60 W in total out of 4,465 usable watt-hours.
Note how much of that draw is the station rather than the appliance: 42% of the energy goes on keeping the inverter awake. On a load this small, the idle draw matters more than the capacity does.
The numbers
| Setup | Average draw | Cautious | Typical | Best case |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × LED Christmas tree lights (500 bulbs), UK 230 V | 60 W | 2 days 22 h | 3 days 2 h | 3 days 7 h |
| 2 × LED Christmas tree lights (500 bulbs), UK 230 V | 95 W | 44 h 14 min | 47 h | 2 days 2 h |
| 1 × LED Christmas tree lights (500 bulbs), US 120 V | 60 W | 2 days 22 h | 3 days 2 h | 3 days 7 h |
- 9.3 nights of eight hours, or 3.1 days of continuous running.
- Usable energy: 4,465 Wh of the 6,144 Wh on the box, after chemistry, inverter losses and the reserve.
- To keep it going for a full 24 hours you would need about 1,981 Wh of rated capacity — which this station has.
- Start-up: the LED Christmas tree lights (500 bulbs) asks for 35 W at switch-on against this station's 11,200 W (230 V) / 14,400 W (120 V) peak — comfortable.
