Most capable Outlet-sized (up to 1 kWh)
Highest technical score among the 7 sheets in the Compact category (outlet-sized tier): 86/100.
How we assign awards →The differences that matter
- Continuous output: 2200 W against 1500 W → only the DJI Power 1000 handles loads between 1500 and 2200 W.
- Solar input: 800 W against 400 W → the DJI Power 1000 uses twice the panels.
- Weight: 13 kg against 4 kg → the Ace 1500 carries in one hand, the DJI Power 1000 takes more effort to move.
- Cold: minimum -10 °C against -20 °C → below freezing the Ace 1500 keeps working where the DJI Power 1000 has to stay indoors.
Which one to choose
Choose DJI Power 1000 if…
you need to run loads above 1500 W, up to 2200 W, with a 1.024 kWh battery, 800 W of panels and a 140 W USB-C port for the laptop. In a blackout it switches to UPS without shutting down what is plugged in. The trade-off: 13 kg to move around and a -10 °C limit in the cold.
Choose Zendure Ace 1500 if…
you want a 4 kg power station that handles up to 1500 W, with 3000 W peak at start-up, and works down to -20 °C. You accept 400 W of solar at most, grid charging at 0.9 kW, a short gap on backup (EPS), 65 W USB-C and IP31 protection, so it stays under cover.
