thats the whole market around these powerstations. pretty much noone needs this. if you have a car, just get a converter for your 12 v output. if you go by public transport you have infrastructure around you. if you need one for your hut at home, build it yourself at the fraction of the cost. And you wont take a 5 kg powerstation up the mountain with you...
Ive been shopping for a power station after getting tired of having to run my generator or vehicle on a job. This came out on the market at the perfect time. Too bad ALL accessories are sold out.
Awesome - just really hope that the US government doesn't deny us from accessing DJI drones and products. PS: I signed the petition FOR DJI to keep going.
Thanks for the review as usual. Both items popped up on my DJI app and I thought about purchasing the big one Nice to have for emergency evacuation. We have a built in generator on our house. But if we ever had to leave home, this would be great to throw in the back and go. Not to mention absolutely awesome to power certain leds during photo shoots! 🙌🏾🫶🏾
I'm currently sourcing for a power station that can power up a 600Ws studio strobe to do some photo shoot outdoor. Will this able to handle a studio strobe?
Just watched this super detailed review and looks like a 600W strobe can totally get consistent, stable power from this bank. Also sounds perfect for my needs.👍
DJI die hards yep...... realistically this strikes me as a crowd funding project on the part of DJI. Dipping their toes in a market of sharks!!!!! I'm a Mini 2 4K and Mavic 3 classic owner but this one isn't for me, no WiFi, no app support I'm sticking with EcoFlow.
THE DJI 1000 . Can this be used for podcast sets up ? That will have equipment such as ATEM mini pro, rode casterori screen display, light, etc not too much because I know I can't overload it but the few little pieces of equipment that are used the most ?
In addition to power, which simply shows the ability to work, an important parameter is time - how long the battery can provide the consumer with such power. It would be right to do some work: cook rice, dry hair, fry eggs or boil eggs. How long will a regular kitchen refrigerator run on a small and large battery? That's what's important. And instant power - yes, it's interesting. But not for battery analysis.
U have one from Amazon for $100 and charges my Mavic 3 Pro batteries literally 5x fully before dead. More than I need for now but looks slick! Smaller one 100% for the win would never want that large one.
WTF guys with imperial vs metric systems. You say 16 & 28 lbs. Your video is supposed to be watched from People all around the world who, a lot of them, happen to use the metric for mass, the KG. Every fcking time I have to do culculations just because you don't put a " (7.2Kg) " under the 16lbs and a " ( 12.7 kg) " under the 28Lbs. BTW why on earth it is even written Lbs and pronounced pounds? Some goes for Temperature, speed etc etc.
another comprehensive review, thanks m8! curious what your finding were re: usable Wh? lot of these stations are in the 80-85% usable watt-hour range, which turns a 500Wh into 400Wh in the real world. Appreciate any input/numbers you may have on this, thanks!
I ordered the 1000 for me and my boyfriend because we just went through a hurricane and lost all the food after a power outage. Will def be using it for so many other things too! Yay
Lol, gotto love Europe.. when in the US: "these are EXTREMELY affordable, DJI Power 500 $379, DJI Power 1000 $699”, when in the EU: DJI Power 500 for €499, DJI Power 1000 for €999.
The battery limit for flights is usually 100 Wh, the smallest here is 512 Wh with the larger being 1024 Wh, so not by default. You would have to get special permission from the airline to fly with it.
Fantastic products. I want one of these. The problem is, power has become so reliable and stable in our area, we didn't have a power outage in the last 10 years 😢
how many max amps do the 500 and 1000 put out? 1000/2200 watts output is nice to know, but what about amps? still watching the video so fingers crossed you answer it lol also can you use this as a really fancy surge protector for your PC? the battery back up APC units can cost 200+ so I'm thinking that 500 looks nice to use double duty as home APC unit and take in the truck/car on road trips or camping
2200 divided by 110 = 20amps note that the 2200 watts is the max (peak) watts 1800 watts is the continuous rated. It does have UPS capabilities but it is a slow 20ms switching time.
@@idanshahar I think it is better to buy US -designed products like Ecoflow (HQ in San Francisco?) than all-chinese. Besides, chinese can and will use predatory pricing to get some market share. I'd definitely buy an european one too if that was available.
Why would you want to? That typically isn’t how you want power to work, you want the device to control how much power it gets instead of controlling how much power the supply delivers. Any device will only use as much power as it needs, so even if this has a 1000 W output, if I plug in a 5 W phone charger to charge my phone, it will only charge my phone at 5 W and the battery bank will only be outputting 5 W (ignoring inefficiencies). So what use case do you have for wanting to control the power output?
Have to disagree at the end there, wireless chargers on a professional product like the 1000 is a gimmick. Way to inefficient to be worth it. But I strongly agree that the ability to remotely monitor it would be huge, definitely something I appreciate about the Ecoflow banks.
Wireless is a nice to have and I use it on some of my other banks. But yes the app is important to possibly monitor when away from the station to see things like power from solar panels, current charge, or change input to prevent overload.
No "cigarette lighter" 12 volt port? Sorry, but that is a bigger deal killer than no wireless charging. Any vanlifer or RVer is sure to need that for some of their portable 12 volt appliances. At least I do. I'll pass and stick to Ecoflow.
No xt60 solar input on the main unit is a major oversight. No one wants another massive adapter to carry. Anker, Bluetti and Ecoflow all have better options.
The problem with these power stations is that you cannot travel with them on a plane. It would have also been a great idea for DJI to have a third model capable of 2000wh enough to charge 10 sets of batteries for the Inspire 3 and charge your phone
Just a bunch of old people in Washington that have lost touch with reality. If they want to prevent Chinese spying they should ban apple iphones and tv's
DJI have got this skill of making want their products. I don’t need one of these power units, but now I want one 😂

That’s an amazing device because they way things are right now in terms of life emergencies
I really just wanna blow my hair dry while making rice with a DJI power pack. 😂
I know you were sold when I whipped out the rice cooker :)
@@FlytPath 😂😂😂😋
I am waiting for DJI to make a hair dryer myself.
Killing it 🙌🏼
I am going to to go broke this month
The drone enthusiast in me wants one, the conspiracy theorist in me doesn't want to trust my power needs to the Chinese, off to rethink my life.
lol😂

Just buy a ecoflow 😂
Am I really watching a 16 minute clip about batteries? 😢

are these powerful enough to power aperture lights like the 600d?
Yup. Just tested it. At 50% power on the 600d is uses 300w. At 15% power on the 600d is uses 100W.
Thank you for convincing me to purchase both units. Those USB-C cables seem very robust. Where can I get them please? Do they support power delivery?
DJI die hards yep...... realistically this strikes me as a crowd funding project on the part of DJI. Dipping their toes in a market of sharks!!!!! I'm a Mini 2 4K and Mavic 3 classic owner but this one isn't for me, no WiFi, no app support I'm sticking with EcoFlow.
Don't buy it if you plan on running a kettle or heater, or vacumm on 2400 w, 220v +, it won't last long, it's evaluated
THE DJI 1000 . Can this be used for podcast sets up ? That will have equipment such as ATEM mini pro, rode casterori screen display, light, etc not too much because I know I can't overload it but the few little pieces of equipment that are used the most ?
Anker SOLIX is still better.
False. It's more expensive and gas less max power output and same battery capacity.
@@Dannyar10 LMAO, it is cheaper on Amazon right now and has an app to let you monitor it.
1024 WH is NOT "...really good for a standard home backup..." (SIC)
It depends how you define “home backup.”
what about using it for an Autel Evo II drone? is it fast enough?
Wow. I've been thinking about getting one of these for awhile now.. and I just got ine from Anker yesterday. What bad timing.
All these "reviews" fail to address is solar charging. You'll need an external DJI MPPT charger that only accepts XT60 connections.
He mentions the adapter twice. It’s $59 which is reasonable
Can it change something like a scooter or Electric Unicycle?
Yup

The price for the DJI Power 1000 in Canada is actually USD $855 :(
Nice 🤝😎
Decent price and uses long life cells that might outlive the USB standards. 😂
Excellent demos! I just received DJI Power 500.
Did you have a link for the solar modules?
store.dji.com/list/accessories?tab=103&sort=recommendation&page=1&category=101%3D101.219.2&startPoint=0
SO much more expensive in the uk, even after considering VAT
Is there a 230v AC output ?
There is a 220-240v AC version available.
$379 but in Europe €529 for the 500 🥲
Lol, gotto love Europe.. when in the US: "these are EXTREMELY affordable, DJI Power 500 $379, DJI Power 1000 $699”, when in the EU: DJI Power 500 for €499, DJI Power 1000 for €999.
Whelp, shipping isn't cheap.
The solar panels need to be included in that price

I hope you get a kickback on the link. 🤣🤣
how does that convert to hitachi magic wand hours?
Is it allowed for flights?

Always good to have a smaller unit as back up for other portable uses.
Best tech reviewer on RUclips!!
can it charge a tesla
Oh damn that’s a good price
That’s a lot of cables 😂
Maybe use a script
What about a charging option for RV use while driving along?
Dji offers all sorts of accessories like 12v charging and other adapters
how many max amps do the 500 and 1000 put out? 1000/2200 watts output is nice to know, but what about amps? still watching the video so fingers crossed you answer it lol

You can easily calculate the current if you know the power and voltage.
UGH
Just purchased an Ecoflow River 2 a week ago for around 380$~ (cost in my country) which is 275wh...
Ecoflow is a quality product, I have used their River 600 for over three years. Just enough for long weekends camping.
@@ristotakala I know but for the same price I could have gotten a 500wh from DJI...

@@ristotakalaand higher pricing too
Look like knock off of the Bluetti brand
I have a few bluettis as well. Sold power stations.
They all look alike, what is your point
What’s the life expectancy for normal use?
All depends on usage, but they are rated 70% capacity after 4000 cycles
Why the drop in price?
can you control the power output?

So, I'd imagine DJI sent you both of these ahead of their release, but I didn't catch you mentioning this being a sponsored video.

Anker has much better price
Anker 512kw is $499 and Ecoflows 499kw is $449 last I checked. Unless they recently dropped them or on sale.
it's just great beginning in this race, wait some time all batteries will jump up and price will drop
