Off-Grid Power Solution Evaluation: DJI Power 2000 - Your Perfect Companion for Remote Excursions
The DJI Power 2000 is a high-capacity portable power station designed for safer operation in various environmental conditions, making it an ideal choice for DJI drone enthusiasts and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
With a capacity of 2,048Wh, the Power 2000 can charge a laptop for 18 times, a mobile phone for 114 times, and run a rice cooker for 2.4 hours. It also offers an impressive continuous output of 3,000 watts, which is enough to power a car refrigerator for 38 hours or an electric chainsaw for 56 minutes.
The Power 2000 is an upgraded version of the Power 1000, boasting double the port count, twice the capacity, and a higher continuous output rating. It features four USB-C ports (two 140-watt and two 65-watt), four USB-A ports (24-watt each), and four AC outputs, three of which are U.S.-standard three-prong grounded outlets and one four-prong one.
One unique feature of the Power 2000 is its proprietary Smart DC (SDC) ports, which make it suitable for charging DJI drones and other devices. The Power 2000 can also function as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and provide power for 152 hours to a Wi-Fi Router.
The Power 2000 is equipped with built-in shutoff mechanisms that trigger if it gets too hot or is being driven beyond its capability, ensuring safe operation. It also has a digital display that shows the current battery percentage, output or input wattage, how long until it's charged or discharged, and other helpful information.
The Power 2000 can be recharged from a wall plug, car's 12-volt DC outlet, or solar panels, but additional cables or adapters are required. When recharged from a car's 12-volt DC outlet using a specific fast car charger cable, the Power 2000 can recharge in about 2.5 hours. It can also support fast charging from AC or solar sources in as little as 45 minutes to reach 80% battery capacity.
The Power 2000 is more expensive than the Power 1000, but it offers significant improvements in terms of port count, capacity, and continuous output rating. It is priced at $1,299, which is comparable to competing devices like the Bluetti Elite 200 V2 or the EcoFlow Delta 2 Max, and cheaper than the Jackery Explorer 2000 Plus.
The Power 2000 is designed for safer operation in rain, condensation, and salt spray conditions. However, it is important to note that it should not be operated in a rainy environment for more than 3 minutes, in a condensation environment for more than 30 minutes, or in a salt fog environment for more than 8 hours to avoid potential damage.
Overall, the DJI Power 2000 is a powerful and versatile portable power station that caters to the needs of DJI drone enthusiasts and outdoor enthusiasts who require reliable power on the go.
