DJI Power 1000 Mini / V2 review: best for cameras and drones

The DJI Power 1000 is our Best for Cameras and Drones pick: around 1kWh with a stated 5-year warranty, for about ₱36,000. Before anything else, know that this listing sells two different machines.

Which one are you actually buying?

This is the thing to sort out first. The listing covers the Power 1000 Mini and the Power 1000 V2, and they are not variations of the same tool.

• Power 1000 Mini: 1,008Wh, 800W rated / 1,000W max, no expansion, about half the physical volume and 2.7kg lighter.
• Power 1000 V2: 1,024Wh, 2,600W continuous, expandable to 11,264Wh with DJI expansion batteries.

Capacity is nearly identical. Output differs by more than three times. The listing title quotes “1000w Output,” which matches the Mini, so assume that’s what the price covers and confirm with the seller before ordering.

What can each one run?

The V2 at 2,600W is the most capable machine in this entire roundup. It runs power tools, a kettle, a microwave, or a small workshop, which nothing else here can touch.

The Mini at 800W sits below our Best Overall pick, the BLUETTI AC70P, which does 1,000W continuous and 2,000W lifting for ₱2,000 less. If the listing turns out to be the Mini, that comparison is not flattering.

Either way, roughly 1kWh is the largest capacity here: an evening of light loads with room to spare, or a few hours of something demanding.

Who is it really for?

DJI built this around its own ecosystem. If you own DJI drones, the fast-charge ports refill flight batteries far quicker than a normal outlet, and that’s a genuine reason to pick it over a cheaper station. Same for camera crews charging on location.

If you own no DJI gear, you’re paying a premium for an ecosystem you won’t use, and the V2’s raw output has to carry the whole case on its own.

Is it sulit?

Around ₱36,000 as of July 31, 2026. Check the latest price on Shopee. Sold through DJI’s official Shopee store, which is the cleanest retail channel of any pick in this roundup, and it carries a stated 5-year warranty, the longest here. Put a rate on that and the sum gets easier to weigh: DJI rates the LFP pack at 4,000 cycles, which puts ₱36,000 near ₱9 per full charge, or about ₱600 a month across the five covered years. One caveat on that cycle figure: DJI measures it to 70% of original capacity where BLUETTI and EcoFlow both quote 80%, so the counts are not directly comparable and DJI’s looks better than it is.

Value depends entirely on the variant. As the V2, it’s the most capable machine in the group and defensible at the price. As the Mini, it’s beaten on output and price by the AC70P.

Who should buy it

Buy this if you shoot with DJI drones or cameras, or you specifically need the V2’s 2,600W for tools and appliances. Confirm the variant first. It’s the wrong buy if you just want household backup and don’t own DJI gear.

Alternatives to consider

For general household backup, the BLUETTI AC70P is our Best Overall at around ₱34,000 with 864Wh, 1,000W continuous, and 2,000W lifting. If you want the largest capacity for home-office UPS duty instead, the EcoFlow DELTA 3 1000 Air has 960Wh and a 10ms switchover at around ₱30,000.
