DJI Power Expansion Battery 2000 isn't a power station on its own: it has no outlet of its own and no display beyond the charge indicator, and it only extends the range of a DJI Power control unit you already own. It connects with a dedicated cable to the Power 1000, the Power 1000 V2 or the Power 2000, and several units physically stack one on top of the other.
Once attached, the battery charges and discharges together with the control unit: it has no input of its own for the mains or for solar panels, so it always draws power through the unit it's connected to. How many batteries can be added in series depends on the control unit: the Power 2000 accepts twice as many as the Power 1000 and the Power 1000 V2, for anyone who wants to grow beyond the first unit.
It's built to stay close to the control unit, stacked and carried together with it rather than installed in a fixed spot. Before connecting it for the first time, check that the control unit's firmware is up to date, and keep it dry: it doesn't withstand rain for more than a few minutes, and prolonged humidity or salt fog damage it. It's the choice for anyone who already has a DJI Power power station and wants more energy without buying a second one, for a longer weekend or a blackout that lasts longer than expected.

Which documents this page rests on
The rest of the data comes from one page on the manufacturer's site, cited row by row in the table above.
A manual or a datasheet counts as a source even when the original file is hosted elsewhere: what matters is the document, not the server. Where that happens, it is stated above.
What it really costs
How we worked it out
- price
- 725
- nominal capacity
- 2.048
- the manufacturer does not state the warranty: the limit could be shorter than the stated cycles
- the manufacturer does not state the guaranteed total energy throughput, which for heavy users is often the limit that runs out first
How we worked it out
- stated cycles
- 4000
- the manufacturer does not state the warranty: the limit could be shorter than the stated cycles
- the manufacturer does not state the guaranteed total energy throughput, which for heavy users is often the limit that runs out first
- on nominal capacity: the manufacturer does not state the usable figure, so the real cost is higher
- without conversion losses, which the manufacturer does not state: the real cost is higher

These numbers are calculated, not stated: they have no source to cite, they have a formula you can redo. The price used is the manufacturer's list price, which is stable and the same in every country — not a shop's price on the day.
Pros and cons
In favour
- It connects to three different control units in the Power line - the 1000, the 1000 V2 and the 2000 - not just one model.
- It's built to be stacked and carried together with the control unit it attaches to, not left on the ground on its own.
- With the Power 2000, up to ten batteries can be added in series, twice as many as with the Power 1000.
Worth knowing
- It only charges through the connected control unit: it has no input of its own for the mains or for the sun. source
- Before the first connection, the control unit's firmware has to be updated, or the battery won't turn on. source
- It doesn't withstand rain for more than a few minutes, and prolonged exposure to condensation or salt fog damages it. source
