CHECK OUT THE DJI POWER 1000: gohobo.io/power1000
(140w power bank link: gohobo.io/padd )
that appliance runtime chart is soo useful sir, saved and thank u!👏 got a Power 1000, gotta say tho the 140W charging works fine for my Macbook. No need to bring the bulky adapter everytime I work on the field. Charges just as fast
Another video well done sir. wanna note that DJI can reach up to 800w solar charging via 2 MPPT modules, quite an advantage over other brands' 500w max. I think only some extra adapter cables are still worth it.
Learnt a ton from your vid Prof! The power bank looks decent, but quite some 1-star reviews on AMZ got me on the fence.. anyone who bought it? can it really stay charging at 140W in the long run?
bought and testified it CANNOT, 140W is out of its league. Could be why the power station wasn't tested to be 140W charging in the video.
those little power banks were awesome. you go to great lengths to do these tests. thank you.
gohobo.io/padd
Full comprehensive review.
The more you know the further you'll go.
FYI, on Amazon, others have reported that when those USB-C power banks get warm they default to 60W charge/discharge so maybe the USB-C charging ports on the power station were indeed 140W but the power banks were the issue...
Nope, they were sitting at room temp all day. I show in the video they worked just fine.
@@HOBOTECH a USB-C to MagSafe 3 cable provides ~100W of power to a Macbook Pro 13' from the DJI POWER 1000's USB-C ports. @jeff8207 might be unto something. Might want to test with a 16-inch Macbook Pro which takes the full 140W on paper.
Sounds like the Juicero of sogens (*-"so" sold seperately). Also a lot of regular drone flyers probably already have a jackery, bluetti etc, that they plug their drone's AC charger into. And likely panels to match as well.
I like the SDC port. It makes it look so much nicer than lots of the other power stations
Not bad, definitely has some nice fearures but I think I'll not wait for solid state batteries .
Dabbsson uses semi solid now.
Claiming 4500 cycles and 15 years.
The dbs1000 pro looks nice.👍
Unique product. Thanks for the review.
Excellent review. Thank you.
DOA,I do like the look of the power banks you used
gohobo.io/padd
Best review I've seen so far, nice work. Take a like+sub
I'm more interested in the 140w power banks. Can you provide a link?
gohobo.io/padd
@@HOBOTECH Thanks!
Great video!
This unit for basic AC and USB is a great value 2200w+ for that price blows EcoFlow and Bluetti out.
Someone might be able to transform proprietary ports to xt60 with a little work.
Keep in mind what you want this to do. IMO the special cables and solar charger, limited solar input are show stoppers. Keep it simple.
cool battery
The price is okay, but the product is just too weird. If I were a videographer or photographer on the go with a dji drone, what I need to change is pretty much the drone and laptop, and cameras. Then I probably wouldn’t even need a big inverter at all yet this thing has a 2000w inverter, the 140w (if working would be great to charge most laptops and cameras, and get a cable for the drones. I would much prefer they cut back on the inverter to maybe 500-1000w and fit in the solar controller. After all the thing only has 1000wh with 70% capacity, with no way to even connect extra batteries, what good will the 2000w inverter do with that capacity.
Good morning Professor!
So many people complaining about the fact that you have to pay extra for add-ons. But, this is how it should be. The price would be higher if those bits were built-in and I’d be paying for stuff I don’t need. I don’t need solar charging and I don’t need to charge it in the car. So, I get a cheaper unit that only does what I need it to do
These very hungry inverters make this unit unsuitable for powering devices for extended periods, but really good to recharge other batteries and run high demand appliances for short bursts.
Another Jackery proprietary cables😮
Any power station can charge with more than one 12v socket.
You just need a splitter for the solar input. You can have 2, 3, 4, or more depending on the Max current or MAX voltage in series input.
if you need all the cables, they are listed at $19.00 each. Best to make your own if you have the ability.
thanks for the in depth review. i was worried it would be kind of gimmicky. i bought the 500 a few weeks ago to have something around that can charge from solar.
Awesome review.
Good day HT
I don’t own a laptop so no firmware updates for me.
The solar add on is not terrible but the cable slop will be heavy with 6 panels, 12v inlet for cooler and charge cables.
DJI usually gets their first version wrong but the second or third is usually really good. I’d wait before getting this thing.
I’m glad I caught this video, because it helped me realize that I really have been looking for the 500 version…. Without realizing it! I hope you have a coupon for that one dr? 😅❤
Tell us how you really feel lol, this thing in more cases than not is just a frustrating inconvenience that is terribly inefficient. Nailed it with drones but tried too hard to be different with the power station and failed😖
Always dig your videos, sir!
A 6A type c cable should have been used to test the 140w outputs.
I was considering this until I saw the inverter inefficiency and panel restrictions.
Now it's between the Dabbsson dbs1000 pro and the newly released Ecoflow Delta 3 Plus.
Still a great video and info as usual from the Professor.👊👊
Any suggestions?
Where did you get those small 140w USB power banks?

@@HOBOTECH Thank you Tom!
Great review, Hobotech defo knows! Interesting features but I'm guessing you'll be paying way over the top for all the proprietary faff, prolly just cashing in on their drone fan base...
Great intro sfx!
"There's no wireless whatsoever"... they may be preparing for the DJI ban by Congress. If that law passes, any DJI device using WiFi, Bluetooth, etc, will no longer be able to obtain FCC approval.
Good morning from Godley Texas
When you check the dB level of various devices you do no reference the base (background) room level. With that we can better understand the sound level of the device. Please consider adding in text the room base level it would be very helpful. Thanks for your reviews very informative.
It's always the same in the room when I test and as quiet as I can make it around 40db.
Yikes.
Is there a review of the Yoshino solid state power station coming soon?
Hello
Outstanding and very thorough review. In your opinion is it ok to keep this fully charged for those unexpected power outages?
Yes
*It's not really very good is it Dr. Hobo ? I really like DJI Products, as I have two of their cameras, but all this extra proprietary, extra purchase only to obtain full feature functionality isn't really a selling point for me. Also, the downright misrepresentation of the PD 140 USB-C sockets @ 60 Watts ONLY is an open turn off ! Nope ! No thanks. Nothing to see here. Time to move along. P.S. The 500 version actually looks more attractive, since you can charge via USB-C PD. I have several foldable solar panels that feature this output.*
USB PB to 5.5mm 12V adapters are under $10. It needs POE++
man as a drone operator I really want to avoid any radio and magnetic field interference what a hell DJI was thinking when creating this power bank?
It’s a power inverter. What do you think is going to happen?
USB C operates at 100watt with some cables -some 140 watt usb c cables default to 60 watt
I clearly show in the video the cables I use support 140w.
@@HOBOTECH yeah it’s frustrating- I went through 4x different power banks and 5 different cables … 100 watt cables draw 120 watt , the 140 watt cables draw 57 watts needs a fix like you said
Excellent presentation. Thank you. Would you mind providing a brand/link to the two small USB-C power banks you used for testing?
gohobo.io/padd
@@HOBOTECH Thank you.
@@HOBOTECH Do you happen to know if the Poweradd's support passthrough charging? I really need a smaller unit that will do passthrough. Thank you!
Could I have this plugged in at all times to backup my 2 monitors, computer and internet router in case the power goes out?
Yep
Do you have link where did you buy mppt solar charging box
Link in description. Go there, scroll.
Thanks so much for letting us know it is worthless than an electric car in Houston after a hurricane.
DJI drone company now sells power stations.
Thanks Tom ! TAKE CARE..
UPDATE ****** FYI the 12v Car kit acts as a SOLAR charger too - ******
Thanks for this video! Did you ever get the second MPPT controller from DJI? I would like to know if it can actually pull in the 800 watts of solar they claim with dual MPPT controllers. A person on Reddit said they connected three 120W panels to one DJI MPPT controller and said it pulled in 350watts for about 10 seconds but then settled out at 300W. Are you able to split your fake solar machine into two XT60s to try to send 400W of solar into two ports of the DJI MPPT controller?
I didn't, but I told them dont bother. After a review, I box up the product, move to storage, then on to the next.
Charging speed depends on battery SOC and other conditions.
Yikes, so many adapters. Would hate to lose one of those when you really need it.
Nice
As soon as you said "not included" to 3 different things, I knew I wasn't going to buy it.
This thing is bad news... No included charge cables or MPPT controllers (and the one you can buy limits you to parallel setups only), wildly inefficient inverter that is too powerful for that battery, etc. This makes proprietary Jackery look good and I hate that company.
Just buy an Ecoflow and be done with it. You can't update via an app because there isn't one. You can't DC charge out of the box. The USBC ports failed, which might be fixed later down the road with a software update, but you'll need to be ready with your PC to do the update. Stick to drones DJI!
I would highly suggest anyone thinking about this should check out the Ecoflow Delta 2. You can get it now around $529 and it comes with solar capability and car charging cable out of the box. No messing with extra adapters, and has the ability to 2x or even 3x the capacity with add-on batteries.
Hey brother, do you know what kind of adapter I could use so that my power station could charge from AC slower like this DJI one? I'm looking for cheapest solution if there is one. TIA👍
Not one person knows how to lower the power draw to charge a power pack slower?😢
Power bank link please 🙂
gohobo.io/padd
@@HOBOTECH Thanks!
Any one know how how I could use Jackery solar panel on this DJI?
I think DJI needs to stick to Drones; proprietery cables for each of the adapter canbles (i.e. Mppt controller) makes this a dumb idea for anybody to buy...Go Jackery in you want a little better...
Honestly, any company selling solar-gen battery backup without using universal pv connections like mc4/Anderson is not worth it. Geneverse, Jackery, DJI. Junk.
Not impressed for my needs
agreed....ill be shocked if this is a big seller.
Didn’t DJI just get banned in the United States?
No.
It's just their drones. The ban hasn't happened yet. The legislation has only been introduced. See HR 2864.
FINALLY - REDEMPTION !
Jackery is no longer the shittiest power bank manufacturer on the market. Well done DJI, that was a difficult bar to undercut.
But seriously, 6 1/2 minutes in, and I see no reason at all to buy this device. Faster charging for drone batteries? That’s a joke of a benefit. If you need to take that much drone footage just buy 3 extra batteries and get a , cough , jackery to recharge them.
It’s their first product. So we’ll let it slide and judge them when updated versions come out in a year or two.
They lost me at no built in DC charging.
Some baffling design choices on this one.
No thanks. They make great cameras though.
Not including the ability to charge via solar or via your car out of the box… ya DJI is not doing great here.
Yep, when he covered this around 2:10 I was like "well that's a dealbreaker for a lot of people.."
Proprietary connectors should be avoided whenever possible. It's a step backward when most of the competition can take basically any DC input voltage within a certain range through their integrated MPPT controllers, using standard connectors like XT60 or Anderson power pole..
@@Justin-C it’s built for people that are drone operators, ones that make money with their drones. Also use only the new DJI drones… which the government is close to banning.
@@Justin-C Even Jackery is starting to stop with that nonsense
Crazy they missed this
@@TheWatchMker they did not miss it. They saved money by not including it and think because they are DJI people will buy it anyway
Thorough review as always Professor. When I shop these devices I stick to a $500 per 1kw budget. I have the delta 2 + eb I purchased for $999 a year ago (great unit) that can be had today for same $ at Home Depot today and most days through the year. Amazon today 7/8 is $899. Also have the Oukitel 5000 and use daily since 1/1/24 without any problems at all purchased for $1749. Some complaints are it produces low voltage around 110 or less, mine has never been that low. Currently running 5000 btu ac @120 volts. With Prime days coming up and everyone having their own sales in play, could be some good deals coming!
Geez. Proprietary plugs/outlets? Optional cords? Too much mess for me. I’ll pass.
DJI should just stick with drones
Yikes DJI
IMHO- what a oddball nightmare unit. Who were the engineers that came up with this thing ? I also find it silly, to have a unit that has a inverter that handles 2200 watts constant, with a battery pack of only 1000 watt hours.
Really only 700 watt hours.
@@teuton6167 id be shocked if this is a big seller. Id like it much more, if it only handled 1500 watts constant { which would suit most people, since this is the max most household applainces use } and had 1500-2000 watt hr battery pack.
60 watts? 😂
It would seem that this was designed to target those who have DJI drones. I don't have any, so not interested. YMMV
Too many too many cables to buy I'm out
No solar, no interest.
Caution: If you unplug the unit from the wall and touch the 3 prong plug.... you will get a shock. I did not measure the voltage but someone should look into this. This is a hazard.
Far out
My Segway cube 1000 has a 2200 watt inverter. It charges very fast at 1200 watts. I paid 549 for it.😊
Another Chinese Trojan horse! See if there is a gps etc..I would not buy that if it was 100$.Keep up the good work hobo,the 4patriots still rates #1 of your videos.
There's no way this thing can compete with the three big brands 👎
I've been using DJI products from the cheapest to the most expensive in a professional setting and they are one of the worst brands. Amazing at first, but horrible support moving forward and weird things that drive you crazy. I've thrown out so much DJI gear.
Boooooooooooooo (this is how is starts with the other companies)
Who the heck designed this? It is so bad.
It's a very confused product. It's cooling and recharging systems are designed to be as lightweight and compact as possible while sacrificing performance except for charging your drone batteries which is what it's designed to do, ok that's good. However, It also has a huge inverter that it simply can't support but increases the bulk and cost without providing much useful function.
