DJI Power 1000 Protective Storage Bag

As a filmmaker and photographer who spends as much time in the field as in the studio, a reliable power source isn't just a convenience—it's a necessity. I've been through my share of portable power stations, and when DJI, a brand synonymous with professional-grade gear, announced the Power 1000, I was intrigued. After several months of use on everything from remote shoots to camping trips, I can confidently say this isn't just another power station; it's a game-changer designed with the modern creator in mind. First Impressions: Built Like a Tank, Designed with Purpose Unboxing the DJI Power 1000 feels like unboxing a piece of professional equipment. It has a substantial, rugged feel without being overly heavy (it's 13.2 lbs / 6 kg). The design is classic DJI: sleek, minimalist, and finished in a dark, utilitarian grey. The carry handle is robust and ergonomic, making it surprisingly portable for its 1024Wh capacity. Everything from the responsive touchscreen to the satisfying click of the ports communicates quality. The Core Experience: Power and Performance This is where the DJI Power 1000 truly shines. · Blazing-Fast Charging: The headline feature is the 1000W AC input. Using the included adapter, I can fully recharge this unit from 0% to 100% in just 70 minutes. This is a monumental leap over competitors that can take 6-8 hours. For back-to-back shooting days, this feature alone is worth the price of admission. · Massive 1024Wh Capacity: In practical terms, this capacity is incredibly generous. On a single charge, I've been able to: · Recharge a DJI Mini 4 Pro (battery plus hub) over 15 times. · Power a 100W video light for nearly 8 hours. · Run a MacBook Pro 16" for a full workday and then some. · Keep a DJI RS 3 Pro gimbal, monitor, and camera powered simultaneously on set. · Pure Sine Wave AC Outputs: With two 2200W (surge 4400W) AC outlets, it can handle demanding professional equipment like powerful lights, small soldering irons, or even a coffee maker without breaking a sweat. The pure sine wave ensures sensitive electronics like cameras and computers are safe. · Versatile Port Selection: It has every port you could need: · 2x USB-C (140W Max): Perfect for fast-charging modern laptops like MacBook Pros. · 2x USB-A (18W): For older accessories, LED panels, or phone trickle-charging. · 2x DC5521 (100W Max): Useful for specialized gear or older portable monitors. · Car Port: Standard for 12V devices. Standout Features for Creators · UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) Function: This is a professional-grade feature. In "UPS Mode," the Power 1000 can switch to battery power in milliseconds during a blackout. I use it to protect my editing workstation, ensuring no lost work during a power flicker. It's also perfect for live-streaming setups. · DJI Power Station App: The companion app allows you to monitor battery levels, control outputs, and update firmware right from your phone. It’s simple, intuitive, and very DJI. Real-World Use Cases: 1. On-Location Video Shoot: We powered two LED panels, a laptop for dailies, and kept all our camera and gimbal batteries charging. It was the silent, fume-free heart of our operation, replacing a noisy gas generator. 2. Weekend Camping Trip: It effortlessly powered a mini-fridge, strung up some fairy lights, and kept all our devices charged. The peace and quiet were a welcome contrast to a generator. 3. Home Backup: During a brief power outage, it kept our Wi-Fi router, a lamp, and a phone charged, making a potentially frustrating situation a non-event. The Pros: · Incredibly Fast Recharge Time: The 70-minute full charge is industry-leading. · High-Wattage AC Outputs: Handles powerful professional equipment with ease. · Robust Build Quality: Feels like it can withstand the rigors of travel. · Crucial UPS Function: A must-have for critical power applications. · Excellent 140W USB-C PD: Future-proofs it for high-power laptops and devices. The Cons: · Premium Price Point: This is a high-end product with a price to match. It's an investment. · Weight: At 13.2 lbs, it's portable, but you feel its heft. It's not something you'd casually toss into a backpack for a long hike. · No Wireless Charging: A minor nitpick, but given the premium nature, a Qi wireless charging pad on top would have been the cherry on top. Final Verdict: The DJI Power 1000 isn't trying to be everything to everyone. It’s a precision tool engineered for users who demand reliability, speed, and clean power for their professional and passion gear. Who is this for? · Photographers & Videographers on location. · Content Creators & Live-Streamers needing a reliable UPS. · Outdoor Enthusiasts who camp with electric coolers or other appliances. · Tech-Savvy Home Users looking for a premium backup power solution. Who might skip it? · Those on a tight budget or who only need occasional power for small devices. · Backpackers who need ultralight gear (look at smaller power banks). The Bottom Line: The DJI Power 1000 justifies its price with unparalleled recharge speed, robust power delivery, and professional features like the UPS function. It has seamlessly integrated into my workflow and outdoor life, eliminating "power anxiety" for good. If your livelihood or passion depends on reliable electricity away from an outlet, this is the power station to buy. It earns its five-star rating.

This thing is awesome. Charges quick and easy to transport. Weights roughly 30lbs so it not crazy heavy. Battery worked with my fridge cooler for about 3 days. Display is clear and easy to read. Compact for the size.

The DJI Power 1000 V2 has exceeded my expectations. The 1024Wh LFP battery provides plenty of power for both home backup and outdoor use, and the build quality is outstanding—solid, premium, and clearly designed to last. It runs very quietly, which is a huge plus compared to other power stations I’ve used. Charging is fast and efficient, and I really appreciate the clean, well-organized ports that make it easy to power multiple devices at the same time. It handled everything from laptops and cameras to small appliances without any issues. The display is clear and informative, making it easy to monitor usage and remaining battery life. Overall, this is a dependable, high-quality portable power station from a brand I trust. If you’re looking for a powerful, safe, and well-designed solution for travel, emergencies, or off-grid use, the DJI Power 1000 V2 is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended!

Recently I bought the DJI Power 1000 Portable Power Station. I think it totally exceeded my expectations especially during the road trips. 2200W Output Power: one of the most outstanding features of Power 1000 is the 2200W output. It can handle almost all my devices like coffee machine, kettle, freezer and so on. My wife and I always spend our holidays RVing. In the evening we can use the car refrigerator, camping light, and charge phones as well as OP 3 at the same time, and it still has power left in the morning. Its 1024Wh battery capacity can keep my appliances charged for longer. I can keep refrigerator running for nearly 20 hours, which is totally enough for a camping in the weekend. Recharge quickly and easily: Recharging Power 1000 is very easy. I always charge it with grid power at home when I packed up my bags. It can be fully recharged in just about 1 hour. Quiet: We used to get problems with the noise of other power stations. When other generators power some high-watt appliances, they are very noisy and would disturb our sleep especially when we spend the night in the RV. But this one is much quieter. When it works, I can hardly hear its noise. Although it might not an important feature for all people, I think it would be attractive to all RV and camping enthusiasts. To my surprise, with all these amazing features, it's quite light and portable. Overall, it's a great purchase.

Updated the firmware Out of Box (No cable is included). The DJI power 1000 is advertised with a 10ms UPS, this is not true, because it cannot switch over fast enough for any compute equipment and it does not provide clean sine power like our River. In fact it doesnt have a UPS at all, and simply turns off when AC power is interrupted. Dongle purgatory is included at an extra cost. The inverter can run high draw devices; though it is nowhere near as efficient as their competitors, but it does deliver advertised sustained wattage, but at about a 40% conversion rate, the best I could ever get was around ~900wh out of the unit, this is extremely high overhead for lighter loads. And it does not include the standard features that any other system will have out of the box. On the plus side, build quality is great, and it will deliver the full 2200w consistently until drained. For loads <1000w we use our ecoflow devices, and this power station will deliver about 660wh back into them, deliver 440wh with a 20w load, or sustain an 800watt AC unit for ~70-90 minutes; from 100-0%. I don't hate it, but I expected better from DJI. A proprietary SDC adapter to charge DJI batteries at 125w. No Solar input out of box; no 12VDC, firmware delivery via PC app using a cable that is NOT included, bluetooth dongle sold seperately ($25, ships in 5-8 weeks) What the actual incompetence? Type C can deliver 240w; SDC is scammy, scummy, and underhanded marketing. 2x140w type C ports are included, however, and the DC-DC delivery is impeccably efficient! Idle power usage is 30watts, that's where the missing 200-300 expected watt hours go, add an additional 20% DC-AC conversion; makes this singlehandedly the least efficient device on the market. Our River 3 Plus, outlasts this DJI unit by greater than 5 hours with any load under 100 watts, but the DJI will power heavy equipment, whereas the X-Boost feature from EF is blatant false advertising and does literally nothing. Solar is a nightmare, the proprietary charge controller won't handle any real input, despite the cost inefficiency, I expect it to fry as soon as I hook up one panel to each controller, to attempt to get the advertised solar charging input of 800w, which can ONLY feasibly be accomplished with 2 panels and 2 controllers, limited to 1 panel per controller. But any real panel will fry the unit with a 20v 13A limit... so perhaps I can find a non-standard, portable panel, that will fit the unrealistic specifications set forth by DJI to "force/coerce" consumer compliance, by starting the consumer on fire if they attempt any normal solar setup. By comparison, the EF river was as easy as converting MC4-XT60 and plugging it in, the EF's Built-In charge controller outperforms DJI's add on controller by a long shot. Accepting up to 50V, with a HyperVOC safety cut off, and supporting up to 30A. Update: after 6 months of limited usage, the unit constantly overheats and produces errors, bootlooping and refusing to charge in any ambient temperature above 80F; which is guaranteed to cause the unit to fail. Our River 3 was tested in the same environment and artificially heated to 140F before shutting down charging, it continued to provide power to connected devices; the river 3 plus did not shut down, limit charging, or fail to operate even at 160F ambient temperature. These units should be recalled and replaced, its like living with a bomb. TL;DR 1 year update: As the loudest, heaviest, most awkward and cumbersome 1k unit I own, the only thing it has ever done consistently is fail to operate. DJI refuses to acknowledge their faulty product; it's so bad they released a V2 with the same issues! Video added.

Pro: 1) very quiet. Among this 1kWh power stations, most of them are very loud when fan is running. some of other power banks have even fan running when trickle charging. This only runs fan on fast charging(1200W) with AC power or high AC output like more than 1000W. 2) usable wattage is 2200W, which is pretty high. other competitors have only 1500W~1800W max. 3) lightweight. only about 30lb. 4) if you have DJI product like drones, the exclusive SDC port is good to use. Con: 1) smaller capacity than other competitors. Others have about 1500Wh but this only has 1024Wh. but it is light weight because of this smaller battery. 2) lack of basic functions. need to purchase all other accessories of needed. basically, for output, it only has 110V AC and USB (A and C). for input, it only has 110V AC. all other input/output or functions, it works via SDC port which is DJI own. need smart function with cellphone app? need to purchase WiFi dongle. need charging from solar panel? need to purchase SDC to XT60 solar adapter. need charging from car 12V? need to purchase SDC to cigar adapter. need 12V-DC cigar output? need to purchase cigar female adapter. need charging from USB-C? need to purchase SDC to XT60 solar adapter and XT60-usb c adapter(3rd party). Other than that, this is very nice quiet power station. The standby power consumption for DCAC converter is about 24W. 100% to 0% without any usage but just turning on AC lasts about 43 hours.

I’m impressed with DJI it’s been 2 months now and I have zero complaints I live off the grind no outside power at all I use a generator and this has cut my gas bill in half and this will run anything I need it for not sure how I lived without it! DJI you impress me and nobody impresses me and I got it on sale for absolute unbelievable price DJI you have a customer for life

I have been investing in power banks, so I know what works for me. I did buy one of these power banks a year ago, I love it. Quiet while charging, only takes 45min to 1 hour to charge. I use it to watch my TV during power outages, and during smud mid peak and high peak power rates. I charge overnight to pay the least amount of money for my electricity. It's an investment. No I will not get my money back very soon, but using it this way my bill on electricity will be cheaper. And I don't know when power bank prices will rise. Right now it's at great price. So I now will have 3 of this size power banks to give me 24 hours of continuous power.

持ちやすい。入れやすい、入れたまま使える。なので雨で使える神製品。

Recomendable 100%

Genau so wie ich es mir vorgestellt hatte :-)

I bought this after I thought id be clever paying £30 for an aftermarket clone. Don't bother just buy this and then you wont be disappointed! Excellent quality. My DJI 1000v2 has a nice house now.

La estación funciona muy bien y cumple con lo que promete. Tiene buena capacidad, es relativamente compacta para la energía que ofrece y la batería dura bastante. La calidad de construcción también se siente muy sólida, como es normal en productos DJI. Lo único que no me gustó tanto es que para conectar e instalar paneles solares se necesitan complementos y accesorios adicionales que no vienen incluidos, así que hay que considerar ese gasto extra. Fuera de eso, el producto funciona correctamente y ha sido una buena compra.
