Ultra-Quiet Operation and Advanced Safety In Standard Recharge Mode, DJI Power 2000 is quieter than most household refrigerators[1] producing a sound no higher than 30dB. When it comes to safety, this has been prioritized with careful consideration throughout the design from its body structure and cell chemistry to the system software. It also adopts advanced power management, maintaining power even when turned off for extended periods and ready for immediate use once powered on[1]. The lithium ferro phosphate (LFP) battery has a long life-span retaining 80% capacity after 4,000 cycles[1]. At a rate of one full charge cycle a day, this would equate to around ten years[1]. An intelligent battery management system (BMS) provides comprehensive protection. With 26 temperature sensors constantly monitoring heat dissipation, the device operates normally even at high temperatures up to 45°C (113°F) [1]. Additionally, 21 fuses provide circuit protection for each module. If the safety threshold for electricity usage is surpassed, the protective mechanism for power supply and recharging activates automatically. Furthermore, the BMS system features a new sub-nano coating for enhanced battery protection. A new potting process protects the inverter, ensuring safer operation in rain, condensation, and salt spray conditions[1], reducing concerns while camping by the sea or driving in high-altitude areas. [1] The Power 2000 is made of flame-retardant materials, reducing the chance of open flames after drops or impacts and has a static pressure-bearing capacity of up to 1 ton. Remote Control via DJI Home App DJI Power 2000 can be directly connected to the new DJI Home app. The interface is simple and user-friendly, allowing users to remotely switch AC output on or off, adjust parameters, and monitor the power status in real-time. In addition to the power station itself, users can also view and adjust the parameters of the Expansion Battery 2000 and 1/1.8 kW Super Fast Chargers.

DJI's new RS4 Mini gimbal does something you definitely wouldn't expect...
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. DJI has just announced the new RS 4 Mini gimbal, the lightest of the Ronin series of gimbals at 890g (under 2 pounds) and capable of capable of carrying a camera of up to 2kg (4.4 pounds). Interestingly, though, that isn't the only striking thing about this version of the three-axis, which has a host of upgrades over the RS 3 Mini. These are designed to accelerate the workflow with an AI tracking module and the option of acting as a gimbal for a smartphone as well as a camera. DJI is calling this a "next-gen design for a more efficient workflow" and, having personally used the RS 3 Mini I can understand the significance of the upgrades on offer here. The manual locks for each axis were time consuming and cumbersome compared to the auto-locks. The designers have also investigated a survey in which 20% of users indicated they'd prefer it if the gimbal could pack flatter for storage. While the RS 4 Mini retains the built-in battery design (unlike the RS 4 and RS 4 Pro, which have detachable batteries) this new version – built from aluminum alloy with Teflon™️ interlayers – offers much of the same functionality as its siblings. Camera and lens control are available via Bluetooth for zoom and shutter, or a wired shutter connection can be used. Quick Release for the tracking module – new magnetic mount makes the tracking module easier to attach (DJI reckon just one second). Better battery life than RS 3 Mini – DJI say up to 13 hours (though of coure this depends on balancing etc. Auto-locking mechanism for each axis – switch it on, it unlocks, switch it off, it locks. Phones and Cameras – though it might be overkill for a phone, you can use this gimbal for it. DJI's Ferdinand Wolf said: "We have rounded out this generation of stabilizers to cater to every level of creator, from professional filmmakers to independent commercial videographers and content creators." That approach, then, is no doubt why a phone accessory is an option! The RS 4 Mini is priced at $369 / £339 / AU$539, which includes the gimbal, quick-release plate, and the mini tripod. The RS 4 Mini Combo $459 / £419 / AU$659. The Combo includes the AI tracking module and the Briefcase Handle. As this news comes out, I've already got the RS 4 Mini and am working on the review, but you can check our guide to the best camera gimbals for mirrorless and DSLR cameras. If you're only looking at phones, perhaps consider the new Osmo Mobile 7 launched a couple of days ago!
