| Spec | Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2 | DJI Power 1000 | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Battery capacityUsable runtime scales with watt-hours. A 1,000 Wh station runs a 100 W load for roughly 8–9 hours once inverter losses are counted. | 1024 Wh | 1024 Wh | 25% |
| Continuous AC outputThe rated (continuous) inverter output decides which appliances you can plug in. We use the rated figure, not surge or 'boost' modes. | 2000 W | 2200 W | 20% |
| Max solar inputHigher solar input means faster recharging off-grid, if you have enough panels to use it. | 600 W | Not listed | 15% |
| WeightLighter is easier to carry to a campsite or between rooms. | 11.3 kg | 13 kg | 15% |
| Max AC charging powerMore AC input watts means a faster wall recharge before a trip or storm. | 1600 W | 1200 W | 10% |
| Rated cycle lifeHow many full cycles the maker rates the battery for. Thresholds differ (70% vs 80% remaining capacity), so read the note under each product. | 4000 cycles | 4000 cycles | 10% |
| Surge / peak outputShort bursts for motor start-up (fridges, pumps). Skipped when the maker doesn't publish a surge figure. | 3000 W | 4400 W | 5% |

Where each one comes out ahead
Anker SOLIX C1000 Gen 2
Better published figure on: Weight, Max AC charging power.
What we like
- 1,600 W UltraFast recharge (49 min to 100%, Anker figure)
- 10 ms UPS
- 4,000-cycle rating to 80%
- AC + solar charging together
Watch out for
- Not expandable
- UltraFast mode needs the battery above 20 °C (68 °F)
DJI Power 1000
Better published figure on: Continuous AC output, Surge / peak output.
What we like
- Strongest inverter here (2,200 W continuous)
- 140 W USB-C ports
- 4,400 W peak
Watch out for
- Only two AC outlets
- DJI's spec page doesn't list a solar input wattage
Verdict
DJI's 2,200 W inverter is slightly stronger; Anker is about 1.7 kg lighter, charges faster and publishes a 600 W solar input.
