Category Scores
Capacity
The EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 leads clearly here, 9.5 against 6.5 — a 3.0-point margin on usable watt-hours and how long it runs real appliances. If that is what you are buying for, the DJI Power 1000 V2 does not close the gap elsewhere.
Output Power
The EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 is marginally ahead, 9.8 to 9.5. A gap this small rarely decides a purchase on its own, though it counts if continuous AC output and whether the surge rating is genuine is your priority.
Recharge Speed
The DJI Power 1000 V2 and EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 are level here, at 9.0/10 each. how quickly it refills from mains power is not what separates these two — look to the categories where the scores diverge.
Solar Input
The EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 leads clearly here, 9.8 against 6.0 — a 3.8-point margin on maximum solar input and how practical off-grid recharging is. If that is what you are buying for, the DJI Power 1000 V2 does not close the gap elsewhere.
Portability
The DJI Power 1000 V2 leads clearly here, 6.0 against 2.5 — a 3.5-point margin on weight and handling relative to capacity. If that is what you are buying for, the EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 does not close the gap elsewhere.
Expandability
The EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 leads clearly here, 9.8 against 9.0 — a 0.8-point margin on whether extra battery packs can be added, and how far it scales. If that is what you are buying for, the DJI Power 1000 V2 does not close the gap elsewhere.
Features
The EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 leads clearly here, 9.5 against 7.5 — a 2.0-point margin on UPS switchover, app control, port variety and extras. If that is what you are buying for, the DJI Power 1000 V2 does not close the gap elsewhere.
Value
The EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3 leads clearly here, 8.0 against 7.5 — a 0.5-point margin on capacity and output relative to price. If that is what you are buying for, the DJI Power 1000 V2 does not close the gap elsewhere.

Pros & Cons
DJI Power 1000 V2
Pros
- +2,600W from a 1kWh pack is the highest output-to-capacity ratio in this list
- +Expandable to over 11kWh, far beyond anything else at this size
- +Tripod threads make it genuinely useful for film and photo crews
- +56 minutes to full
Cons
- −No standard 12V car socket and no DC5521 — the I/O is a walled garden
- −Solar needs DJI's proprietary SDC adapter, an extra cost, and the published 1,800W figure is contradicted by measured results around 1,200W
- −DJI publishes no surge rating at all
- −31.3lb
EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3
Pros
- +240V output through an L14-30R means it can genuinely back-feed a house transfer switch, which almost nothing else here can
- +Expandable to 48kWh as a full system — this is whole-home territory
- +2,600W of solar input across dual MPPT
- +Its price has fallen roughly $900 from launch
Cons
- −113.5lb — it has wheels for a reason, and it is not going camping
- −The 6,000W X-Boost figure is voltage reduction, not true surge
- −Only two USB-C and two USB-A ports on a station this size
- −Full system expansion runs into five figures quickly
