DJI Releases The Power 1000 V2: Here Is What You Need To Know

In the ever-evolving world of drones and field technology, power is everything. DJI, a name synonymous with innovation, has just announced the Power 1000 V2, a next-generation portable power station that promises to transform how drone professionals, content creators and outdoor tech users stay powered up in the field or at home. With a colossal 1024Wh capacity, cutting-edge safety enhancements and industry-leading charging speeds, the DJI Power 1000 V2 sets a new benchmark for power solutions.

Genuine Ultra-High-Capacity Power Output

The Power 1000 V2 delivers 1024Wh of energy with a continuous 2600W output, allowing users to operate over 99% of everyday devices without interruption. From high-performance drones and cameras to field laptops and kitchen appliances, this unit is designed to handle it all.

What makes this device particularly invaluable for drone professionals is its compatibility with DJI’s high-capacity drone batteries. It can, for instance, charge a Matrice 4 Series Intelligent Flight Battery from 10% to 95% in just 35 minutes. This minimises downtime during field operations and boosts workflow efficiency, especially during time-critical shoots.

Scalable Energy Storage for Extended Demands

Beyond its already impressive core capacity, the Power 1000 V2 supports up to five 2048Wh expansion batteries. This pushes the total possible capacity to an enormous 11,264Wh, making it suitable not only for multi-day shoots but also as a reliable home backup system in emergencies. Whether you’re powering a basecamp in the Highlands or keeping your household running during an outage, this level of scalability is a true standout.

Flexible Recharging with Grid, Solar, or Car Power

Charging flexibility is central to the Power 1000 V2’s appeal. It can recharge from grid power, solar panels or a vehicle alternator. Grid charging is particularly impressive: users can get from 0 to 80% in just 37 minutes, or a full charge in 56 minutes. Solar users aren’t left out either, with compatible solar panels offering a full recharge in as little as 40 minutes with up to 1800W input.

For those constantly on the move, DJI's Super Fast Car Chargers allow a full recharge in just 78 minutes, even with expansion batteries. This makes the Power 1000 V2 ideal for remote locations, camper-van travel or rapid deployment scenarios.

Smart Management via the DJI Home App

The Power 1000 V2 comes equipped with remote management capabilities through the DJI Home app. Users can monitor real-time power usage, toggle AC output, configure settings and manage connected devices and expansion batteries all from their smartphone. This level of control is particularly useful in professional scenarios where power usage needs to be closely monitored and optimised.

Dual 140W USB-C Ports for Super-Fast Charging

Versatility continues with its comprehensive range of output ports: four AC outlets, two USB-A, two USB-C (140W each), one SDC, one SDC Lite and two 1/4" threaded ports. The dual 140W USB-C ports deliver a combined 280W, which is 40% more than standard dual 100W ports, perfect for ultra-fast charging of high-performance laptops and digital production equipment.

Upgraded Safety Design for Peace of Mind

Safety and reliability are top priorities in professional and outdoor environments, and the Power 1000 V2 rises to the challenge. The unit features durable LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) cells known for their thermal stability and long life. The intelligent BMS includes 19 temperature sensors and 25 fuses, providing robust protection against overheating and electrical faults.

The new potting process protects the inverter, ensuring safe operation even in rain, salt spray and condensation. Add to this a flame-retardant casing and the ability to withstand up to 11 tons of static pressure and you have a power station that thrives in the toughest conditions.

Whisper-Quiet Operation at Just 26 dB

At just 26 dB, the Power 1000 V2 operates more quietly than a typical library. This makes it suitable not only for field use but also for indoor applications where noise pollution is a concern, from emergency backup in the home to silent power at events or studios. Whether you're camping in the countryside or powering gear overnight, you can sleep undisturbed.

Instantaneous UPS Backup Mode

In critical power situations, every second counts. The Power 1000 V2 includes a seamless UPS mode that activates battery backup within just 0.01 seconds of a grid failure. This ensures that vital equipment remains operational without interruption, offering peace of mind to both professionals and homeowners.

Power Where and When You Need It

Whether you’re filming a documentary in the Scottish Highlands, setting up a drone survey operation on a construction site, or preparing for unexpected home power cuts, the DJI Power 1000 V2 delivers unmatched versatility, power and reliability.

Conclusion

The DJI Power 1000 V2 is more than a portable battery; it is a comprehensive energy solution for today’s demanding mobile professionals and drone enthusiasts. With its high capacity, rapid charging, intelligent safety systems and smart remote management, it represents a decisive leap forward in portable power technology.
