REVIEW – This has been the year for severe storms where I live. We’ve been at this house for 25 years and we’ve had more storm damage this past spring than all those years together. Most of it has been tree damage. But with all storms come power outages. We’re lucky that we have a whole-house generator, because we have power outages all the time. I’ve never reviewed a power station before, but when the DJI Power 2000 power station was offered, I decided it was time to give one a try because you never know when you might need some backup power, either during storm situations or even outdoors in a location that doesn’t have a power outlet. Let’s take a look at the DJI Power 2000 and see what it can do.

Design and features
The DJI Power 2000 power station is a sturdy, compact-sized power station with a generous supply of ports and outlets that include:
- 4x AC output ports
- 1x AC input port
- 1x 30A RV (NEMA TT-30R) outlet
- 4x USB-C ports
- 4x USB-A ports
- 2x SDC ports
One of the nice things about the DJI Power 2000 is all of the ports that you are available to you to use. But when I first unboxed the power station, I was confused by the round port on the front. My first thought was that it was for a stove/range. But it’s not. It’s a TT-30R outlet. What’s that? It’s for recreational vehicles like trailers and campers. This might be an exciting feature for you, but it’s not a feature that is important to me. Luckily, there are three 120V AC outlets and you can buy an adapter to turn that special port into a 3-prong AC port (or multiple ports depending on the adapter).
In the center is a bright display that gives you a quick look at the current power capacity % of the power station and if it’s providing power (output) or recharging (input). Below the display are four USB-C ports (two are 65W and two are 140W).
Next to the display is a set of ports protected by covers and a row of four 24W USB-A ports below them.
The larger cover protects the input port. Using the included power cord, you can recharge the power station using a regular outlet in your home, garage, etc. It takes only 55 minutes to go from zero to 80%, and 90 minutes to full with grid power. The DJI Power 2000 can be recharged via grid power, solar power, car power, and even hybrid recharging.
The DJI Power 2000 also has 2 SDC ports. If you’re like me, you’re wondering what an SDC port does. SDC stands for “Smart Direct Current”. SDC ports are special, multi-function ports that are designed for both input and output power. These ports are different from regular power outlets because they adjust to the exact voltage and power needed by the device you’re connecting to it. For the DJI Power 2000, these ports can be used for (taken from the DJI Power 2000 product page):
Recharging
1. Recharge the power station with up to 1000W car power using the DJI Power 1kW Super Fast Car Charger.
2. Recharge the power station with up to 1800W solar power or up to 1200W solar power plus 600W car power using the DJI Power 1.8kW Solar/Car Super Fast Charger.
3. Recharge the power station with up to 400W solar power using the DJI Power Solar Panel Adapter Module (MPPT).
4. Recharging the power station with a car’s power outlet via the DJI Power Car Power Outlet to SDC Power Cable (12V/24V).
Capacity expansion
1. Expand capacity with DJI Power Expansion Battery 2000, connecting up to 10 expansion batteries to expand up to 22528 Wh.
Power supply
1. Quickly charge intelligent DJI drone flight batteries of the DJI Matrice 4 Series, Mavic 3 Series, Air 3 Series, Matrice 30 Series, and Inspire 3 using the corresponding fast charge cable.
2. Supplying power to car-powered appliances via the DJI Power SDC to the Car Charger Plug Power Cable.
3. Charging model aircraft batteries outdoors by connecting to the balance charger (model aircraft battery balance charger) via the DJI Power SDC to XT60 Power Cable (12V).
Using the DJI Power 2000 power station
After fully charging the DJI Power 2000 power station, I tested it by using it to recharge and power a variety of gear and gadgets around my house, like the small battery-powered vacuum shown above.
The device that drew the most power from the power station was my Ninja Foodi pressure cooker/air fryer, which I used in pressure cooker mode to cook up a batch of fresh green beans.
You can see that it provided 1000W. It worked great and was no different than using it plugged into a regular outlet in the wall. Which is exactly what you want from a power station, right?
I also used the Ninja Foodi in air fryer mode, and again, it didn’t cause the DJI Power 2000 to break a sweat.
Other tests included recharging two MacBooks, two iPhones, and two Apple Watches all at the same time. No problems at all.
I can totally see using the DJI Power 2000 in a storm-related power outage to power a variety of devices like lamps, a microwave, a sump pump, fans, a coffee maker, a hotplate, a refrigerator/freezer, and more.
Recharging the DJI Power 2000 with a solar panel
DJI sent me their 100W folding solar panel. I like the design of the panel because it folds into an easy-to-store, move, form factor that is complete with handles and a zippered pocket for the attached power cable.
The image above shows the panel completely unfolded. You can see that there are eyelets in each corner that you can use to mount the panel.
I tested the panel by placing it on my deck. This is easy since the panel has two fold-out feet that keep the panel at the correct angle.
You can’t just plug the panel into the power station, you’ll need the Solar Panel Adapter Module (MPPT). This module plugs into one of the SDC ports and then the solar panel’s cord plugs into the module.
It’s a common belief, but solar panels don’t only collect UV rays. They actually capture the energy from the whole spectrum of sunlight, including visible light and infrared, though they are more sensitive to some parts than others. Solar panels can still generate power on a cloudy day because clouds don’t block all light. Some sunlight still gets through, diffused by the clouds. While I was testing this feature, I saw some charging even when the sky is overcast (but at a reduced rate). But on clear, sunny days, with the panel in direct sunlight, it charged the DJI Power 2000 faster. But when it came down to it, it didn’t charge fast enough, and I ended up just plugging it into a nearby power outlet. I think using multiple solar panels or a much larger one would make a huge difference.
DJI Home app
Another nice feature of the DJI Power 2000 is the ability to set it up in the DJI Home app. From the app, you can see the status of the power supply when you’re not near it. It can connect via WiFi or Bluetooth. I like that it shows how long it will take to recharge the unit, and while you’re using it, it will show how many hours/minutes you can expect to use it at the same level.
Expanding the DJI Power 2000 and other uses
You can expand the DJI Power 2000 with additional batteries. You can daisy chain up to ten 2048Wh expansion batteries, boosting the capacity to an insane 22,528 Wh.
You can also use this power station as a UPS (uninterruptible power supply). When you connect a device, the DJI Power 2000 via an AC output port, and both the device and power station are receiving grid power, the DJI Power 2000 defaults to UPS mode. In the event of a sudden power outage, the DJI Power 2000 will start powering the connected device(s) within 0.01 seconds, for continuous operation.
Final thoughts
The DJI Power 2000 is a powerful, easy-to-use backup that can keep your essentials running during an outage or give you portable power for camping and outdoor projects. I love how fast it recharges and that it doubles as a UPS for worry-free protection.
It is heavy, and I wish it had wheels, but that’s the trade-off for this much capacity. At $1,099, it’s not cheap, but the peace of mind it offers when the lights go out makes it worth it.
What I like about DJI Power 2000 power station
- Easy to use
- Quiet
- 0-80% recharge in 55 minutes
- Can be used as a UPS
- Expandable
What needs to be improved?
- It would be great if it had wheels or a small cart to make it easier to move around
