How Long Will the DJI Power 500 Run a Blender?
Updated 2026-10-17 · Yes
About 44 minutes. The DJI Power 500 stores 512Wh, and a blender averages about 600W. That’s enough for about 14 typical 3-minute uses.
The numbers
| Battery capacity | 512Wh (LFP) |
|---|---|
| Usable energy | 435Wh (85% via AC outlets) |
| Continuous AC output | 1000W |
| Surge rating | Not published |
| Blender running watts | 600W |
| Startup watts | 900W |
| Average draw | 600W |
| Estimated runtime | 44 minutes |
| Energy per day of typical use | 30Wh |
512Wh × 0.85 = 435Wh usable ÷ 600W average = 0.7 hours

Recharging with solar
The DJI Power 500 accepts up to 300W of solar input. In real conditions that harvests about 1.1 kWh on a sunny day (5 peak-sun hours), or about 750Wh with one 200W panel.
Solar can keep up. A blender uses about 30Wh a day at 0.05 hours of use, so with enough panels and good sun the DJI Power 500 can run it indefinitely.
Tips
- Blenders run for seconds at a time, so energy is trivial; the motor surge at startup is what matters.
- You’ll still have about 400W of AC capacity left for other devices at the same time, though they’ll share the same battery.
- The DJI Power 500 uses LiFePO4 (LFP) cells, rated for thousands of cycles, so running it down daily won’t wear it out quickly.

FAQ
How long does the DJI Power 500 take to recharge with solar?
With its maximum 300W of solar input it refills in about 2.3 hours of strong sun. With a single 200W panel, expect about 3.4 hours of full sun.
