DJI Launches 'Power 2000' Portable Power Station

DJI, champion known for its enactment of drones, contiguous announced the motorboat of the Power 2000, a portable powerfulness station. DJI already offers the Power 1000, and the Power 2000 is simply a larger, much susceptible mentation of the Power 1000.


I was capable to trial the Power 2000 earlier launch, to supply penetration into the merchandise for those who mightiness beryllium looking for a ample powerfulness presumption option.

DJI's Power 2000 has a 2048Wh capableness with an LFP battery, treble the capableness of the Power 1000. It's designed to powerfulness aggregate devices oregon ample appliances and instrumentality successful emergencies, erstwhile off-grid, oregon erstwhile nary accepted powerfulness root is disposable specified arsenic successful a van surviving situation. It's $1,299, truthful it's not cheap, but it does look to beryllium priced competitively.

DJI describes the Power 2000 arsenic compact, and it is compared to immoderate competing products with akin capacities, but it stretches the explanation of portable. The Power 2000 weighs astir 50 pounds, truthful portion it is simply a instrumentality that works good astatine location arsenic a backup, successful a vehicle, oregon successful an off-grid concern wherever you person the quality to transport it, it's not thing that's perfect for carrying around.


Most radical aren't going to privation to lug a 50-pound instrumentality retired for a time astatine the parkland oregon the beach, and it's not going to enactment for camping erstwhile a conveyance isn't available, specified arsenic successful a hike-in situation. There are other, smaller powerfulness banks that are amended for that purpose, but the Power 2000 is perfect arsenic a location backup portion oregon for conveyance surviving situations. If you request adjacent much power, the Power 2000 does enactment up to 10 Power Expansion Battery units (each 2048Wh) for a full capableness of 22,528Wh.

DJI included 2 carrying handles connected either broadside of the Power 2000, but it could person done better. Anker's powerfulness banks of this size travel with a acceptable of wheels and an extendable grip truthful you tin much easy transport them, and including thing akin would person made the Power 2000 overmuch easier to determination from spot to place. Even bringing it to antithetic rooms and moving it extracurricular to trial charging was a chore during the reappraisal owed to the weight, though size is simply a antithetic story. It's heavy, but it is smaller than I would person expected. It measures successful astatine 17.5 inches by 13 inches by 9 inches.

All of the ports are astatine the beforehand of the Power 2000 for casual access. There are 4 AC ports that accommodate modular plugs, 4 USB-C ports, 4 USB-A ports, 2 bidirectional "smart" DC ports, and 2 1/4" threaded ports for DJI accessories, star panels, and different devices. All of the ports tin beryllium utilized astatine once, for charging aggregate devices astatine the aforesaid time. Two of the USB-C ports enactment 140W and were capable to complaint my MacBook Pro astatine afloat velocity with the USB-C to MagSafe cable, portion the different 2 ports enactment 65W.


There's a powerfulness fastener that activates the Power 2000 erstwhile you clasp it down for 2 seconds, and a abstracted AC fastener that turns connected the AC ports. A show astatine the beforehand tells you what's drafting powerfulness and however agelong the artillery volition last, oregon however overmuch powerfulness the instrumentality is drafting from an outlet and the clip to recharge.

The Power 2000 tin grip a full of 3,000 watts, truthful it is almighty capable to tally astir appliances and devices successful the home. It tin grip refrigerators (even full-sized), heaters, microwaves, portable AC units, aesculapian devices, and powerfulness tools. While it's utile to person a instrumentality similar the Power 2000 connected manus for powerfulness outages, I find the ample batteries utile successful situations wherever I request to usage a instrumentality successful a spot wherever there's nary outlet.

I tin enactment the Power 2000 successful my Gorilla Cart and plug successful immoderate I need. I've done this erstwhile sanding, utilizing a unit washer, utilizing a vigor gun, powering a store vac, and more. My member keeps a akin ample powerfulness slope successful his car for emergencies, and I've besides utilized 1 for backup power. If you've ever had a multi-hour oregon multi-day powerfulness outage due to the fact that of a upwind event, you're alert of the inferior of a ample powerfulness slope oregon backup generator.


The Power 2000 has capable capableness to powerfulness my router and my cablegram modem for longer than an 8-hour workday, truthful if the energy is out, I tin inactive get online with AT&T fiber. I plugged successful my PlayStation 5, 65-inch TV, Apple TV, and immoderate lights. Power gully was 400W, springiness oregon take, and it was capable to tally everything for implicit 4 hours.

Charging my MacBook Air dropped the Power 2000's artillery from 100 percent to 95 percent, and it dropped a percent charging my iPhone 16 Pro Max from zero to 80 percent. I can't trial however galore times I tin complaint my MacBook oregon iPhone due to the fact that it would instrumentality forever, but based connected the trial charges, it should grip charging a ‌MacBook Air‌ astir 20 times and an iPhone 16 implicit 100 times. It tin besides complaint my camera artillery implicit 100 times, and of people it tin complaint DJI drones.


I don't person aesculapian equipment, but these kinds of batteries tin beryllium utile for CPAP machines, oxygen concentrators, and different devices that request powerfulness adjacent erstwhile there's an outage. The Power 2000 has an enactment for an uninterruptible powerfulness proviso mode. It tin beryllium plugged into a partition outlet, a instrumentality tin beryllium plugged into the Power 2000, and past if the powerfulness goes out, the instrumentality volition stay connected with nary interruption. It besides offers passthrough charging, truthful you tin usage it arsenic a charging presumption that expands the fig of devices that tin tally from a azygous outlet.

DJI suggests that the Power 2000 tin tally a router for 152 hours, a projector for 80 hours, a car refrigerator for 38 hours, an electrical instrumentality for 18 hours, and a lamp for 180 hours. A DJI drone should beryllium capable to complaint 24 times.

I drained and charged the Power 2000 respective times implicit the investigating period. I haven't had it agelong capable to find however agelong it holds a charge, but successful my experience, these kinds of batteries volition enactment charged for months. You usually person to usage them each 3 to six months for optimal health, and you won't privation to store it with a afloat charge. The Power 2000 uses a lithium robust phosphate artillery that DJI says volition clasp 80 percent capableness aft 4,000 cycles, and that it is capable to support powerfulness for months owed to its powerfulness absorption features.


DJI's app works with the Power 2000, truthful you tin cheque the remaining artillery and get a readout of however agelong the accessory volition past based connected what's plugged successful (this is the aforesaid readout that's connected the display). DJI's remaining artillery estimates were accurate, and were wrong astir 20 minutes of the existent artillery beingness successful my testing. When I did drain the artillery to zero twice, it had a zero readout earlier it was wholly retired of power, truthful I had a grace play earlier it unopen off.


The champion portion astir the Power 2000 is however rapidly it tin charge. With a ace charging mode, it tin judge up to 1,800 watts to complaint from 0 to 80 percent successful 55 minutes. I did stroke a fuse doing that, truthful it does request to complaint from an outlet with thing other connected the circuit if you person 15-amp circuits. I person a 20-amp circuit for a kiln, which supported much powerfulness gully for the faster charging.

The modular charging is astir 1200W, and that takes nether 2 hours to charge, which is plentifulness accelerated capable for me. The Power 2000 is capable to complaint with a star panel, and DJI sent a 100W exemplary for testing. At 100W, it's going to instrumentality implicit a time to complaint the Power 2000 to 100 percent adjacent successful afloat sun, truthful you're going to privation a superior star sheet array if you program to recharge the Power 2000 with solar. It's summertime wherever I am, and we've had sunny, 90-degree weather, but I'm not typically getting the afloat 100W due to the fact that of histrion cover, and the information that the prima moves passim the day. Even partial prima oregon a cloudy time volition springiness a small spot of power, truthful you won't beryllium wholly without charge.


To link a star sheet to the Power 2000, DJI has a $60 Solar Panel adapter. It lone connects to DJI-certified Zignes star panels, and it supports plugging successful 3 panels for a maximum of 400W per adapter. The Power 2000 tin beryllium utilized with different star panels, but a converter is required to link the star sheet to the adapter module. Other batteries similar this person built-in ports for star panels, truthful I'm not definite wherefore DJI went the adapter route.

You tin besides complaint from a car astatine up to 1000W, though that requires the DJI Power Super Fast Car Charger. Charging via a car charges the artillery to afloat successful 145 minutes, positive there's a car and star combo for faster charging, and an enactment to brace AC and DC charging. You tin plug the Power 2000 successful and besides gully powerfulness from a star sheet oregon car charger, astatine up to 2200W total.

Charging was quiet, and I could hardly perceive the Power 2000 erstwhile it was plugged in. DJI says that with modular charging, the dependable is nary higher than 30dB, and I couldn't perceive it unless I was close adjacent to it. I didn't consciousness it get lukewarm erstwhile charging devices oregon charging up itself.

DJI says determination are 26 built-in somesthesia sensors and 21 fuses to observe anomalies, preventing overcharging, overvoltage, overcurrent, and different information issues. The instrumentality is made of flame-retardant worldly and it has a load-bearing capableness of up to a ton, positive it has interior protections against accidental h2o vulnerability and outdoor condensation. It tin run usually successful temperatures up to 113°F.

There is simply a 3 twelvemonth warranty, and DJI offers extended warranties to customers who registry connected the DJI website.

Bottom Line

DJI's Power 2000 has a competitory terms constituent and an charismatic array of ports and features, truthful it is worthy considering if you're looking for a artillery with a 2000Wh capacity. The app is utile for keeping an oculus connected powerfulness transfer, and I appreciated the high-power USB-C ports.


I bash privation DJI added wheels and a grip for easier transportation, and determination are besides rather a fewer add-ons and accessories that are needed if you privation to complaint the artillery with a car oregon with solar. You'll request to instrumentality those add-ons into relationship erstwhile comparing the DJI Power 2000 to competing products.

How to Buy

The DJI Power 2000 tin beryllium purchased from the DJI website for $1,099 acknowledgment to a existent sale. Retail terms is expected to beryllium $1,299.
