DJI Power 1000 vs Anker 757 PowerHouse
Side-by-side on the specs that decide it — surge, capacity, runtime and price.
Both models' specs verified against manufacturer listings · Last updated
The short answer
These two cost the same, so the decision comes down to what you're powering.
- Anker 757 PowerHouse holds 20% more energy (1229Wh vs 1024Wh), so it runs the same load proportionally longer.
- DJI Power 1000 has 2000W more surge headroom (4400W vs 2400W) — that decides whether a fridge, pump or AC compressor will actually start.
- DJI Power 1000 is 15.9 lb lighter (28 lb vs 43.9 lb).
- DJI Power 1000 is rated for 4,000 cycles vs 3,000 — meaningful if you cycle it daily.
DJI's first power station is a genuinely strong 1kWh unit — 2,200W output and a 4,400W surge put it ahead of most rivals its size, though the ecosystem leans toward DJI's own drone and camera kit.
Best for: Content creators and drone operators already in the DJI ecosystem.
Where it falls short:
- 400W solar input is modest
- Accessory ecosystem is DJI-centric
Anker's older flagship, now a discount play. Solid and durable, but heavy for its capacity and outclassed on charge speed by the newer C-series.
Best for: Buyers who find it discounted below the newer Anker C1000.
Where it falls short:
- 43.9 lb for 1.2kWh is heavy
- 300W solar input is low
- Outclassed by the newer C1000
