DJI has the ultimate power accessory for drone pilots needing even more flight time

DJI is a name synonymous with drones and action cameras, but this year the company launched its first set of power stations — the DJI Power 500 and Power 1000. These power stations were the first to be aimed specifically at drone pilots, offering them a way to charge their drone’s batteries much faster than using conventional means.

Now the company is bolstering that lineup with an expansion battery aimed at people who need even more power.
