Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 1500 W (high setting). **Surge:** 1500 W (resistive heating element, no inrush). **Voltage:** 120 V AC required. Ceramic heating element with fan-forced air distribution. Field note: Switch to low mode (900W) to extend runtime by 67% on battery. Thermostat cycling helps too — once the room reaches target temp, draw drops to zero between cycles. How long can I heat a room on a portable power station? At 1500W on high, a 2000Wh station (1400Wh usable) provides roughly 1 hour of continuous heat. On low (900W), that extends to about 1.5 hours. Thermostat cycling extends these estimates further. | |||||

Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 1500 W (high setting). **Surge:** 1500 W (resistive heating, no inrush). **Voltage:** 120 V AC required. Oil-filled radiator with thermal mass — continues radiating heat after power is cut, unlike ceramic or fan heaters. Field note: Oil-filled radiators are the best space heater type for battery backup. The thermal mass means the unit keeps heating the room even during thermostat off-cycles or after you turn it off — stretching your battery further than a ceramic or fan heater. Is an oil-filled radiator better than a ceramic heater on battery? For battery efficiency, yes. The oil reservoir stores heat and radiates it passively during thermostat off-cycles. A ceramic heater stops heating the moment power cuts. Both draw 1500W on high, but the radiator delivers more total warmth per Wh consumed. | |||||
| Vornado VH200 (Whole Room Vortex) | 1,500W | 1,500W | Safe | ~1.7h | OEM Verified |
Show expert analysisTechnical: **Running load:** 1500 W (high setting). **Surge:** 1500 W (resistive heating, no inrush). **Voltage:** 120 V AC required. Vortex air circulation distributes heat throughout the room more evenly than directional heaters. Field note: The 750W low setting is useful on battery — it halves power draw while still circulating warm air via the vortex fan. On a 2000Wh station, low mode provides nearly 2 hours of whole-room heating vs 1 hour on high. Can I use the Vornado VH200 on low mode to save battery? Yes — low mode draws 750W, half of the 1500W high setting. This doubles your runtime on a portable power station. The vortex circulation still distributes heat effectively at the lower setting. | |||||

Generator Insights
The 7200W surge capacity can support typical motor-driven appliances during startup, including air compressor motors, well pumps, and refrigeration units that demand brief high-current events. The 3600Wh capacity provides extended runtime for moderate loads, though actual performance depends on connected equipment and environmental conditions. This unit can handle typical whole-home essentials when loads are properly managed.
The Delta Pro uses LFP chemistry, a lithium iron phosphate formulation widely recognized for thermal stability in residential applications. The manufacturer provides operational guidance in their documentation, but users must follow all installation and usage instructions to minimize risk.

Technical Analysis
Spec-Based • No GuaranteesTechnical Breakdown
Running load: 1500 W continuous. Surge: 1500 W (resistive heating element — no motor inrush). Voltage: 120 V AC required. All standard US space heaters draw 1500W max (the 15A circuit limit). Technology varies — ceramic, oil-filled, vortex — but the wattage ceiling is the same.
Expected Behavior
Estimated runtime: ~1.7h. Draws 1500W on high regardless of heater type. Low modes range from 600W (oil-filled) to 900W (ceramic). Four hours daily at max consumes 6000 Wh. Thermostat cycling with duty_cycle 0.65 reduces effective consumption to ~3900 Wh.
Field Note
All 1500W space heaters need the same generator capacity. The difference is in runtime strategy: oil-filled radiators retain heat passively, vortex heaters warm rooms faster, ceramic towers are compact. Use low mode (600-900W) on battery to extend runtime significantly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the EcoFlow Delta Pro power a Space Heater (1,500W)?
Yes. The EcoFlow Delta Pro provides 3600W running / 7200W surge. The Space Heater (1,500W) needs 1651W / 1651W (including 10% buffer). That leaves 1949W of running headroom and 5549W of surge margin.
How long will the Delta Pro run a Space Heater (1,500W)?
Approximately 1.7 hours, based on the Space Heater (1,500W)'s 1500W draw and the Delta Pro's 3600Wh capacity (70% usable after real-world losses).
What Else Can You Run?
With 1040W allocated to the Space Heater (1,500W), the Delta Pro still has ~340W of margin. These devices could run simultaneously:
