DJI’s Power 1000 V2 delivers all-day drone charging with 2,600W of home backup — and Amazon dropped the price to $400

DJI might not be as well-known in the power supply space as Anker, Bluetti, EcoFlow, or Jackery, but its range of portable power stations have proved rather impressive in our tests.

I find them particularly good for drone operators, since the units feature SDC ports for charging DJI drones.

But that's not the only use for these power stations.

The DJI Power 1000 V2, currently $400 (was $600) at Amazon , is a prime example of that, with its 1,024Wh battery capacity, 2,600W output, and a port selection that makes it well-suited for home backup during emergency power outages. • Best for: Drone operators charging multiple devices on the move, or home-owners wanting emergency backup power for appliances, electronics, and outdoor equipment. • What we like: The DJI Power 1000 V2 is a portable battery station that can also come along on camping trips, RV adventures, and outdoor challenges.
