DJI’s first power stations debut an intriguing bidirectional port


It’s all about DJI’s proprietary SDC port.

Both power stations are fitted with batteries that use LFP chemistry, which is safer and lasts longer (80 percent capacity after 3000 cycles) than traditional NMC, and both offer a 0.02-second cutover making them suitable for use as a UPS on unstable grids. That’s a unique approach, since those DC-to-DC converters are something you’d find standard inside a class of power stations commonly called solar generators. DJI tells me that in the future, the SDC ports might support higher power and capacity accessories through firmware upgrades.
