DJI is on a roll with portable power. We’re all smitten with the ability to go off grid without actually losing power and DJI is helping us achieve this. A portable power station is ideal for camping, powering up the projector in the backyard this summer, or to use during power outages. They’re also useful for content creators who tend to stray off-grid for projects.
DJI has long been a creator-favorite brand, and they’re keeping up with the world of portable power. The brand just launched the DJI Power 1000 Mini which is small only in terms of its footprint. It packs in a respectable 1,0008Wh but its physical size is nearly halved compared to the original DJI Power 1000 as well as being smaller than the DJI Power 1000 V2. It clocks in at weighing about 25 pounds, so it certainly ticks of box of being ultra portable. Max output is rated at 1000W.

Noteworthy features on the DJI Power 1000 Mini
DJI made some nice additions to this new model compared to previous versions. For starters, there’s a lightbar at the bottom, which is a feature I love. It makes a big difference to have a built-in light when walking up stairs with a power station or moving it around a dark campground.
DJI also added a retractable USB-C cable with 100W output which feels like a real luxury. DJI also makes all of their portable power stations especially friendly for content creators, and the new Power 1000 Mini is no different. DJI drone owners get access to an SDC port for quick-charging of drone batteries.
Another content-creator friendly element is the noise level on the DJI Power 1000 Mini. The brand notes when recharging in standard mode, it’ll reach about 30 decibels which should be quiet enough to sleep through or record content near without interrupting.
How to buy the DJI Power 1000 Mini in the U.S.
As of last December, DJI faced an FCC ban on DJI drones. Since then, the company has struggled to get new products into the country. That appears to be the fate of the DJI Power 1000 Mini. For now, at least.
Mashable Deals
Earlier this month when DJI released the new Osmo Pocket 4, a DJI spokesperson told Mashable the company was still waiting for authorization with the FCC to sell the device in the United States. Sadly, there’s no current route to get your hands on the DJI Power 1000 Mini in the U.S. However, toggling to the brand’s Canadian site indicates the station’s price in USD and lists it at $467.
We’ll keep this page updated as soon as we hear info about a U.S. launch.
