DJI Introduces Its Own Portable Power Stations [Video]

DJI has announced 'Power 1000' and 'Power 500,' the company's first portable power stations.

Drawing on over a decade's worth of battery research and development, the two devices can be fully charged in just 70 minutes, fast charge DJI drone batteries and meet the power demands of common household appliances.

"Over the past several years we've seen travelers and content creators around the world increasingly turn to DJI drones and handheld cameras, to capture and share their experiences. These users have a demand for fast charging, worry-free, sustainable power consumption and today we're glad we can address this with the new DJI portable power stations." said Christina Zhang, Senior Director of Corporate Strategy at DJI.


"Whether consumer, professional, enterprise or agricultural, DJI has a long history in battery research and development. Batteries are paramount to the user experience with battery life and charging efficiency, central to user needs. We hope that the DJI Power series can further improve the outdoor experience by eliminating power consumption anxiety and, in the home, by being on hand as a home backup to tackle power outage issues."



The DJI Power 1000 has a battery capacity of 1024 Wh and weighs 13kg with the smaller, compact DJI Power 500 at 512 Wh and weighing 7.3kg; they can provide maximum power outputs of 2200Wand 1000W respectively. Both units can be fully charged in just 70 minutes or, if you're in a rush to get out, charged to 80% in just 50 minutes.

With the help of separately-sold charging cables, DJI drone users can fast charge selected DJI drone batteries with the DJI Power SDC super-fast charge function; and be up in the air within approximately 30 minutes (from 10% to 95%). Using just three drone batteries and a DJI Power portable power station, creators can enjoy a full day of flight and content capture, without power concerns getting in the way of creativity.


The power stations can be charged using the power socket, solar, car, or USB-C. The Intelligent Battery Management System is built up with LFP cells that have a 3,000 cycle, 10-year lifespan.
