Will the EcoFlow NextGen 160W Portable Solar Panel work with the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Ultra?
Yes. One EcoFlow NextGen 160W Portable Solar Panel works with the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Ultra: about 23.3 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 60 V limit, and about 160 W in full sun. Two panels: works (2 panels in parallel on Solar input (XT60i)), about 320 W.
Works
1 x NextGen 160W Portable Solar Panel into the DELTA 3 Ultra (1 panel on Solar input (XT60i)) stays inside 11 to 60 V and under 18 A, even at 20F.
- Ships with an XT60i charging cable, so it plugs straight into recent EcoFlow stations.
- Use an MC4 to XT60i solar cable.

Quick answers
Will the EcoFlow NextGen 160W Portable Solar Panel work with the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Ultra?
Yes. One EcoFlow NextGen 160W Portable Solar Panel works with the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Ultra: about 23.3 V on a 20°F morning against the station's 60 V limit, and about 160 W in full sun. Two panels: works (2 panels in parallel on Solar input (XT60i)), about 320 W.
Can I connect two NextGen 160W Portable Solar Panel panels to the DELTA 3 Ultra?
Yes, 2 panels in parallel on Solar input (XT60i). That gives about 320 W.
What cable do I need to connect the NextGen 160W Portable Solar Panel to the DELTA 3 Ultra?
Use an MC4 to XT60i solar cable.
Is it safe on a cold morning?
Panel voltage rises in the cold. One NextGen 160W Portable Solar Panel goes from 21.3 V on its label to about 23.3 V at 20°F and 24 V at 0°F. The DELTA 3 Ultra accepts up to 60 V on the Solar input (XT60i).

Other panels that work with the DELTA 3 Ultra
- EcoFlow DELTA 3 Ultra: solar input 11 to 60 V on the Solar in (Solar input (XT60i)). EcoFlow sets this limit on open-circuit voltage (Voc), so we hold the panels' Voc on your coldest morning to it.
- Cold raises panel voltage: we add 0.30% per °C below 77F (25°C), a typical figure, since this panel does not publish its own. At 20F one panel's 21.3 V becomes 23.3 V.
- Current over the 18 A cap is safe: the station takes 18 A and you get fewer watts. We count only the capped watts.
- Max 800 W on this input.
- Cold-morning voltage uses 0.30% per °C, typical for crystalline panels. This panel's own value is not published.
- Expected watts are the best case in full sun. Real-world midday output is usually 60 to 80% of that.
