The DJI Power 1000 V2 — the lighter, smarter way into silent, drone-ready power
Not every hunter needs to haul 22 kilos of battery into the scrub. The DJI Power 1000 V2 is the one you actually pick up and take — a 1024Wh LiFePO4 portable power station with a big 2600W output, whisper-quiet 26dB running, and the feature that matters most to a drone shooter: it fast-charges DJI drone batteries straight off its SDC port, takeoff-ready in minutes.
This is the V2 — DJI bumped the output to a genuine 2600W, made it faster to recharge and tougher against the weather. Gun Bar has it as genuine Australian stock through the C.R. Kennedy distribution network, DJI’s Australian distribution partner, at $999 — $200 off RRP. If you want DJI Power but don’t need the big brother’s full 2048Wh, this is the smart 2026 buy.
Why It’s Different For Drone Shooters
Fast-charge your DJI drone in the field — minutes, not hours
The feature a petrol genny can’t touch, and the reason this is the power station for drone-assisted hunting.
If you fly a DJI drone for deer management, thermal spotting or property work, dead batteries are what ends the day early. The Power 1000 V2’s SDC port delivers ultra-fast charging to DJI drone batteries — as an example, it takes a Matrice 4 Series flight battery from 10% to 95% in about 35 minutes, roughly halving normal charging time. Run a couple of batteries in rotation off the unit and you keep a drone in the air from the ute all day, no mains and no generator. No other power station charges DJI drones like DJI’s own.
Power You’ll Actually Carry
2600W of silent power at half the weight
Nearly the big unit’s output, in a box you’ll happily throw in the ute for a weekend.
Here’s the clever part: the 1000 V2 puts out 2600W — only a whisker under the Power 2000’s 3000W — so it runs almost anything a camp throws at it: a fridge, lights, power tools, a CPAP, a coffee machine. But at around 14 kilos it’s roughly two-thirds the weight of the 2000, and it runs at a whisper-quiet 26dB — nothing to spook game at dawn or wake the camp. Underneath sits safe LiFePO4 chemistry that won’t catch fire if it’s knocked, rated for 4,000 cycles (about 10 years), with a weatherproofed inverter built to shrug off rain, condensation and salt spray. And when a blackout hits at home, its 0.01-second UPS switchover keeps the essentials running without a flicker.
1000 V2 vs Power 2000 — Which One?
Straight comparison with its big brother
We stock both. The DJI Power 2000 is the big-camp, multi-day, whole-of-home unit; the 1000 V2 is the lighter, cheaper, grab-and-go one. Both fast-charge DJI drones, both run silent, both use the same safe LiFePO4 chemistry. Here’s exactly how they line up.
| Feature | DJI Power 1000 V2 | DJI Power 2000 |
|---|---|---|
| Gun Bar price | $999 | $1,799 |
| Capacity | 1024 Wh | 2048 Wh |
| AC output | 2600 W | 3000 W |
| Weight | ~14 kg | ~22 kg |
| 0–80% recharge | 37 min | 45 min |
| Expandable to | 11,264 Wh (5 batteries) | 22,528 Wh (10 batteries) |
| Ports | 4× AC · 2× USB-C (140W) · 2× USB-A · SDC + SDC Lite | 4× AC · 4× USB-C (2×140W, 2×65W) · 4× USB-A · 2× SDC |
| DJI drone fast-charge | Yes (SDC) | Yes (up to 240W SDC) |
| Cell chemistry / cycles | LiFePO4 · 4,000 cycles | LiFePO4 · 4,000 cycles |
| Best for | Solo/small trips, one-drone days, portability | Big camps, multi-day, heavy drone days, home backup |
Get the 1000 V2 if you’re mostly solo or in a small party, weight matters, you’re flying one or two drone batteries a day, and you want to spend less — its 2600W still runs nearly everything. Step up to the Power 2000 if you need to run a full camp for days without recharging, fly a heavy multi-battery drone day, or want it doing double duty as serious home-blackout backup with maximum expansion headroom.
What You Get
Six reasons it’s the smart grab-and-go buy
A genuinely useful core on its own, and up to five expansion batteries when a trip runs long.
A pure sine wave inverter runs fridges, power tools and sensitive electronics — nearly the Power 2000’s output.
Faster than the 2000 on the mains — full charge in 56 minutes, or top up over a smoko.
Up to 1800W solar (zero to full in about 40 minutes), or top up from the ute’s alternator on the drive in.
The SDC port fast-charges DJI drone batteries in the field — the standout feature for drone-assisted hunting.
A potted, weather-sealed inverter, 19-sensor BMS and DJI Home app control over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
What It Runs
1024Wh in real terms
Approximate real-world runtimes from a full charge — actual figures depend on the device and conditions, but it gives you the shape of what 1024Wh does in the field.
Need more? Add up to five DJI Power Expansion Battery 2000 units to reach 11,264Wh — or step up to the Power 2000.
Genuine Australian Stock
Bought right, backed right — through C.R. Kennedy
Grey-import power stations are a real problem: wrong plug standards, no local warranty, no one to call when a 1kWh battery plays up. Worth knowing — DJI didn’t even release the 1000 V2 in the United States, so any US-sourced grey unit is a red flag. Gun Bar supplies it as genuine Australian stock through the C.R. Kennedy distribution network, DJI’s Australian distribution partner — the correct 240V Australian model, locally warranted and locally supported. Real advice from real shooters at the counter.

Common Questions
DJI Power 1000 V2 FAQ
Should I get the Power 1000 V2 or the Power 2000?
Get the 1000 V2 ($999) if you’re mostly solo or in a small party, want something light enough to carry one-handed, and fly one or two drone batteries a day — its 2600W output runs nearly everything. Step up to the Power 2000 ($1,799) if you need double the capacity for multi-day group camps, heavy drone days, or serious home-blackout backup with deeper expansion. Both fast-charge DJI drones and use the same safe LiFePO4 chemistry.
Can it really fast-charge my DJI drone?
Yes — that’s the standout feature. The SDC port delivers ultra-fast charging to select DJI drone batteries; as an example, it takes a Matrice 4 Series flight battery from 10% to 95% in about 35 minutes. You’ll need the matching DJI SDC fast-charge cable for your drone; tell us which drone you fly and we’ll confirm compatibility before you order.
What’s changed in the V2 versus the original Power 1000?
The V2 lifts continuous output to a genuine 2600W, recharges faster (0–80% in 37 minutes), adds an upgraded 19-sensor BMS with 25 fuses, and a weatherproofed potting process for safe use in rain, condensation and salt spray. Same 1024Wh LiFePO4 core and DJI drone fast-charging.
Is it quiet enough for a hunting camp?
Yes. It runs as quietly as 26dB — a sealed battery unit with no exhaust or fumes, unlike a petrol generator. Nothing to spook game at dawn, no fuel to carry.
Can I add more capacity later?
Yes. It takes up to five DJI Power Expansion Battery 2000 units via its SDC port, lifting total capacity to 11,264Wh — start with the base unit and grow it as your needs do.
Can I use it as home backup in a blackout?
Absolutely. Its UPS mode switches to battery in 0.01 seconds when the mains drops, so a fridge, modem, lights and devices keep running without a flicker. At 2600W it handles most household essentials.
Is LiFePO4 safe to have in the ute and at camp?
Yes. LFP (lithium iron phosphate) is the safe end of lithium chemistry — stable and non-explosive if knocked or punctured — and it holds over 80% capacity after 4,000 cycles, around ten years of use. The V2 adds a weatherproofed inverter and flame-retardant construction on top.
Is this genuine Australian stock with a warranty?
Yes. Gun Bar supplies the correct 240V Australian model as genuine stock through the C.R. Kennedy distribution network, DJI’s Australian distribution partner, with a local warranty behind it — not a grey import (DJI didn’t even sell the 1000 V2 in the US). No firearms licence is required; it’s a consumer electronic that ships Australia-wide.
