Good inverter purchase?

Question is; what has a longer than 1 year warranty that can be used as a UPS-Inverter? Ecoflow cant.

But unfortunately it's not exactly cheap

Eccoflow can and in a recent poll, close to 70% of people in their SA Facebook page use them as a UPS (pass-trough). The switch over time is just a bit long (30ms) which is why they call it an EPS instead of a UPS. 5 year warranty.

Personally I would not recommend it but it will not void your warranty. Battery state of charge % will drift when you use it as a UPS so it is recommended that you discharge it dead and recharge it to 100%, twice times per month.

I don't see any of them with warranties longer than 1 year. I looked at Lalela's website and its the same. Warranty

Anker has 5 year and so does Ecoflow. I saw some other brands with 3 year and some with 2 year as well. Ugreen will also be selling locally soon and I think theirs may have a 5 year as well.

Ok I see Ugeen is available now. 5 year warranty. Their app looks very nice as well.

Hopping to see some reviews soon. This should be a good alternative to the Ecoflow Delta 2 which sells for around 20K. Double the capacity and higher output wattage.

@Syntech send me one and Ill review it for you xD

I hear you, but I wont risk my fine electronics on anything with more than 15ms transfer time.
