DJI has just recently added a new portable power solution to its lineup with the Power 1000 Mini. Announced alongside a wave of other products, the new unit focuses on portability while still offering enough capacity for creators and travelers who need power on the go.

Smaller, Lighter, and Easier to Carry

The Power 1000 Mini is designed to be more compact than DJI’s existing power stations. At just 12 liters in volume, it’s roughly half the size of some of the company’s larger models.

It also weighs 11.5kg—noticeably lighter than the Power 1000 V2 and significantly lighter than the Power 2000—making it easier to carry to shoots or outdoor locations without much hassle.

1008Wh Capacity for Everyday Use

Inside is a 1008Wh LFP battery, which should be enough to handle a range of devices, from cameras and drones to laptops and small lighting setups. The unit delivers up to 800W of continuous output, with a peak of 1000W, and can support appliances rated up to 1200W in certain scenarios.

For photographers and video shooters, that means it can power continuous lights, recharge batteries, or keep a mobile editing setup running while on location.

Ports and Charging Options

The Power 1000 Mini includes a practical selection of ports: two AC outlets, two USB-A ports, a USB-C port, and a built-in retractable 100W USB-C cable.

There’s also a dedicated SDC port for DJI gear, which supports up to 300W output for faster charging of compatible devices.

Charging is flexible as well. The unit supports wall charging, car charging, and solar input. It can reach 80% in about 58 minutes and fully charge in roughly 75 minutes via AC power.

Car charging takes around 160 minutes, while solar charging is handled through a 400W MPPT system with MC4 connectors.

Built for Real-World Use

DJI is positioning the Power 1000 Mini as a rugged, travel-ready solution. It features a flame-retardant body that can withstand up to one ton of pressure and is designed to operate at altitudes up to 5,000 meters.

The sealed inverter design adds some protection against rain and salt exposure, and a 10-sensor battery management system helps monitor performance and safety.

The unit can also function as a UPS, switching over in about 0.01 seconds during power outages, and supports pass-through charging when connected to solar panels.

Extra Convenience for DJI Users

The SDC port is particularly useful for DJI users, enabling faster charging for compatible drones. DJI says an Air 3 battery, for example, can go from 10% to 95% in around 30 minutes with the appropriate cable.

Users can also monitor and control the power station through the DJI Home app via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

Pricing and Availability

The DJI Power 1000 Mini is priced at $467 and is available now through DJI’s online store and authorized retailers.

With the Power 1000 Mini, DJI is clearly aiming for a more portable power solution—something that still delivers solid capacity without the bulk of larger power stations.
