DJI’s second‑generation Power 1000 raises continuous output to 2,600 W, enough for kettles, cookers and power tools that most 1 kWh stations can only run at reduced power. It recharges to 80% in 37 minutes and to full in about 56, and switches to battery in 10 ms when the grid fails.

The 1,024 Wh LFP battery is rated for 4,000 cycles, and you can add up to five 2,048 Wh expansion batteries for 11,264 Wh in total. The trade‑offs are in the accessories: there is no built‑in 12 V socket, and solar charging needs DJI’s adapter module.

Pros

  • 2,600 W continuous, highest in its class
  • 0–80% in 37 minutes
  • Expandable to 11.3 kWh
  • Very quiet (26 dB) and 10 ms UPS

Cons

  • No 12 V socket without an add‑on
  • Solar needs a separate adapter
  • Only two AC outlets

Who it’s for

  • Running high‑draw kitchen appliances off‑grid
  • Drone pilots and DJI users
  • Starting small and expanding to whole‑home backup
