 Sustainable Summer Series: How the EcoFlow Delta 3 Plus Got Me Through a 4-Day Power Outage

When severe weather strikes, it can leave people feeling vulnerable and unprepared. Last month, Heather Nelson, Senior Manager of Solution Success, experienced three consecutive days of intense storms, complete with high winds, relentless rain, and tornado watches. Amidst the chaos, the power went out, leaving Heather wondering how long it would be before things returned to normal. Fortunately, she had the EcoFlow Delta 3 Plus on hand, a powerful battery that turned out to be a lifesaver during this unexpected outage. Read on to hear the story of how this product helped navigate a four-day power outage and kept essential devices running smoothly.  


I powered it (EcoFlow Delta 3 Plus) up and got a few essentials plugged in—my phone, tablet, and a small LED lamp that gave the kitchen just enough light to feel somewhat normal. With my devices charged, I could keep up with updates from the utility company, the national weather service, and check in with friends and family. Even just being able to follow what was happening around the neighborhood helped take the edge off the uncertainty. 

Over the next four days, the EcoFlow Delta 3 Plus became my anchor. While many of my neighbors were stuck with candles and flashlights, I had consistent lighting and could move around safely once the sun went down. Without fear of draining my phone battery, I streamed some of my favorite podcasts to a Bluetooth speaker, which helped pass the time and keep things feeling somewhat routine. Having a few familiar voices in the background went a long way in making the evenings feel less isolating. 

With most things in the house offline—no stove, no internet, no TV—I had time to slow down. I ended up organizing a few drawers, writing a bit, and finally finishing a book I’d been halfway through for months. It wasn’t exactly how I planned to spend the weekend, but having enough power to keep the basics running gave me the space to actually enjoy the quiet. 

By the time the power was finally restored, I felt more grateful than anything. The EcoFlow Delta 3 Plus didn’t just keep my devices alive—it helped maintain a sense of calm and normalcy in the middle of an unexpected disruption. That made all the difference. 


From keeping phones and tablets powered to providing consistent lighting and allowing for staying connected with the outside world, the EcoFlow Delta 3 Plus served as an invaluable tool. It transformed a potentially stressful situation into an opportunity to slow down and appreciate the quiet moments. For anyone looking for a reliable power solution for emergencies, the EcoFlow Delta 3 Plus is a game-changer that can make all the difference.
