DJI Power 1000 Portable Power Station, 1024Wh LiFePO4 Battery, 2200W (Peak 2600W) AC/140W USB-C Output, 23db Ultra-Silent, Solar Generator For Home Backup, Camping(Solar Panel Optional)

I always loved DJI products and when I was looking for a battery bank for my camper van, I thought I’d give the Power 1000 a shot. I use this power bank along with the 1kw super fast car charger, wireless dongle, and the MPPT solar controller and everything works excellent. The power bank is nice and portable and ridiculously powerful with a fantastic capacity. The build quality is everything I’ve come to expect from DJI and using it is easy and makes camping so much easier. I cannot recommend this enough, along with all the SDC accessories, for your power needs. Some might say the SDC ports and dongles are an inconvenience, but I use these ports the most often and love this innovative idea.

I GIVE THIS MACHINE FIVE STARS FOR ITS POSSIBILITIES.There are severl problems with this power station. If the unit is internally damaged your output will drain obviously too fast and the unit will turn itself off. Then there is the software which won't work. Return that unit, get a refund or contact DJI repair... BUT remember to READ THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR START UP.There is a secondary function on the AC button. One push and it goes into ECO mode where it WILL TURN ITSELF OFF. There should be a sticker on the machine with start up instructions. This AC button has to be pushed a SECOND TIME to be on CONTINUOUS charge. The green light pulsates on ECO mode and is solid on CONTINUOUS. The AC has to be on Continuous in order to update and you should be charged to 100%. This is all important.The Power 1000 has a notoriously low real time total Watt Hours. BUT it will put out mucho wattage. And there's an additional battery to add more watt hours and another 1000 watt capacity. In other words it'll run everything but not for long... If you only use this as a power station, DO NOT UPDATE YOUR SOFTWARE. That is mostly for drones and could lock up your Power 1000 so it cannot be charged anymore.DJI software is notoriously difficult and there aren't any fixes. You don't need it. When working normally this unit has a low watt hour tally. So it will drain more quickly than you might like. But it's ability to power large wattage items. was what I was looking for for my power tools. The quicker drain and large wattages capacity is normal for this unit.My Power1000 refused to charge after my software upload. It sits useless... I wouldn't touch their software. But this unit was just fine until their software locked it up.

The expansion possibilities on this unit are excellent: you can get more batteries, different connectors for solar and vehicle charging options. The display is nice, and the fans are quiet. The AC power supplies more than enough to charge e-bikes, run power tools, even a pancake air compressor.If all you want is the basic unit to supply some AC power occasionally in an emergency, this is probably overkill. There are other, cheaper options with similar storage and output.The expansion is where this system shines. You can get a 12V "cigarette lighter" charger that does 200W of charging in my vehicle at least. Or you can get the "super fast" vehicle charger that does over 1000W with a direct connection to the battery. You can add solar panels with different kinds of standard connectors, or just more batteries for storage.Some downsides: there is no connectivity to your phone without using additional "dongle" that burns one of the expansion ports. For something this expensive I think they should include connectivity. For some of the expansions you need to do a firmware update, but the firmware updater tool only works on Windows, not Mac.The only thing I'd change

Overall, great solar generator. Quiet, powerful, portable, capable. But you should know that you CANNOT charge the generator from your vehicle's 110v AC outlet (inverter)! The outlet will 'fault' because the minimum voltage to charge the DJI Power 1000 via AC is 600w, and most vehicle's with 110v AC outlets only supply 400w max. The exception to this is if your vehicle has an upgraded 110v power supply system (as may be the case with commercial trucks or package upgrades). DJI does sell a 12v cigarette plug adapter to SDC cable, capable of 100w charging of the Power 1000 unit...but...really really? A portable generator in 2025, marketed as a 'get-away-from-it-all' generator incapable to being charged via vehicle AC at a lower wattage? Just seems like they missed an opportunity here.

this is a top quality product. Got it for about half regular price on the black Friday event. Completely worth it. On a 20+ hour trip to Florida able to run starlink constantly plus keep laptops charged while working. At gas stations we would stop for restroom and fuel. charge up 20% each time because of how fast it can charge at 1200watts. The USB C ports will easily keep your MacBook Pro laptops full charge because they can output 140 watts.
