Well, I just had to try it out.
And persuade my nearest and dearest we can take the hoover camping.
Motor rated at 825 watts. Pulling 719 at idle. Then 816 when running brushes and suction.
Lounge done.
Air 3 batts from 50% to full in minutes.
Didn’t time it but very quick using SDC cable. I’ll do a proper test when ive flown and flattened the 3 batteries.
Running out of things to charge and clean.
Just bringing the power 1000 level down to 60% ish for storage

Is that a requirement of the DJI power stations, Paul?

From opening it up at 61% , bring to full charge then discharge to the same ish amount.
Now 57%
You may have misunderstood my question, I’ll rephrase it 
Why are you lowering the amount of stored power before storing the unit away @October ?
Have DJI told you that you need to do this with their power stations?
Hi Ping, from the video I seen they recommended 55 % ?
Interesting! Thanks Jim 
Did they say why?
Ah, they did say why, post overlapped with Paul’s.
Thanks both

Just read Paul’s note , really trying to talk myself into buying one still not sure if I need or is it a want ?
I was on the fence too.
We did a lot of camping and revisited it this year. We realised we missed it.
So portable power was a real positive now, not so much in the past.
Soooooo I waited and waited.
The dji won it, due to the fast charging capabilities using SDC and USB C.
At 599 it was worth the punt. A few days later it was the same price at Drone Safe store so potentially an extra 2.5% with GADC discount.

Surprised it doesn’t auto-discharge down to the correct storage level … like all their other batteries. 
I did contact Jackery about storage levels, and they said there was no need to bother.
Fundamentally the same tech. Strange.

Good point.
Perhaps a firmware update could solve that problem and its easy to do.

I don’t discharge my EcoFlow before storage either, hence this DJI requirement catching my eye as unusual.
I wasn’t sure if they’d just copied and pasted that bit from one of their drone battery manuals
More than likely.
Sold out in the shop ?
And dont forget your member discount
Standard practise with lithium cells Rich
If you did FPV you’d know

Looks like DJI are following EcoFlow’s lead and are now offering expansion packs for their existing power stations:
