Can an EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus run a CPAP machine? (US 120 V)
Yes, it runs it — no usable-capacity figure see why below ↓
Every check passes: 22 W running against 1,800 W continuous. Nothing here has a locked rotor to publish an inrush figure for, so the absence of one is a fact about the hardware rather than a hole in the library.

Two numbers decide this, and readers arrive using them interchangeably. Watts are the ceiling on what the inverter can hold at any instant — a CPAP machine needs 22 W of them while it runs. Watt-hours are how much energy the battery holds, and the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus holds 1,024 Wh of them on the nameplate. A machine can have plenty of one and not enough of the other.
The verdict above is a calculation — running watts, start-up inrush and inverter waveform against this machine's continuous output and surge ceiling — not a lookup. What it will not do is print a runtime, and the reason is specific: EcoFlow publishes no depth of discharge or inverter efficiency for this model, so there is no usable-capacity figure to divide.
Where those numbers come from
Every figure below carries the tier it came from and the date it was checked. A blank is never left blank: a field the manufacturer does not publish says so, and a field whose sources disagree — two documents, or one document with itself — says that instead of picking one.
No usable-capacity figure for this machine
EcoFlow publishes a nameplate watt-hour number and nothing about depth of discharge or inverter efficiency for this model. Dividing the nameplate by this load would be wrong by 20–35% in the flattering direction, so this page shows the nameplate for what it is and refuses to turn it into hours.

Energy rate instead of a runtime
22 Wh per hour averaged over this load’s duty cycleThis number needs no battery figure at all, which is why this page can give it when it cannot give hours. Divide any usable-capacity figure you trust by it and you have your own runtime, with our arithmetic visible instead of hidden.
What a CPAP machine demands
The inverter is loaded to 44 VA — 22 W ÷ 0.50 — which is the quantity its ceiling is actually measured against.

If this is not the pairing
EcoFlow RIVER 3 Plus (US 120 V) reaches the same conclusion on a CPAP machine at 600 W continuous, and it is $259. Cheaper is only cheaper when the answer is the same — this one is. See that pairing →
