Will the Rich Solar MEGA 200 PRO (24V) work with the DJI Power 1000 Mini?
No. Open-circuit voltage 43.5V is above the station's 28V limit. Going over a station's input voltage limit can damage it. Two panels: don't connect (2 panels in parallel on SDC (built-in MPPT, DJI MC4 solar cable)), about 0 W.
Don't connect
Do not plug this in. Open-circuit voltage 43.5V is above the station's 28V limit. Going over a station's input voltage limit can damage it.
- Open-circuit voltage 43.5V is above the station's 28V limit. Going over a station's input voltage limit can damage it.
- The brand does not say whether its voltage limit is open-circuit or working voltage, so we check against the stricter open-circuit number.
- The manual or page does not give a current limit for this input, so current was not checked.
- The MPPT is built in: panels connect to the SDC port with the DJI Power MC4 Solar Power Charging Cable. DJI gives the port as 9 to 28 V and 400 W but publishes no current limit, so the checker checks voltage and watts but not current.
- Not sold on the DJI US online store when we checked on Oct 28, 2026.
- A 24 V panel: 43.5 V open circuit on its own, so two in series (87 V) only suit high-voltage solar inputs.

Quick answers
Will the Rich Solar MEGA 200 PRO (24V) work with the DJI Power 1000 Mini?
No. Open-circuit voltage 43.5V is above the station's 28V limit. Going over a station's input voltage limit can damage it. Two panels: don't connect (2 panels in parallel on SDC (built-in MPPT, DJI MC4 solar cable)), about 0 W.
Can I connect two MEGA 200 PRO (24V) panels to the Power 1000 Mini?
No: Open-circuit voltage 43.5V is above the station's 28V limit. Going over a station's input voltage limit can damage it.
Is it safe on a cold morning?
Panel voltage rises in the cold. One MEGA 200 PRO (24V) goes from 43.5 V on its label to about 47.6 V at 20°F and 49.1 V at 0°F. The Power 1000 Mini accepts up to 28 V on the SDC (built-in MPPT, DJI MC4 solar cable).

Other panels that work with the Power 1000 Mini
- DJI Power 1000 Mini: solar input 9 to 28 V on the Solar in (SDC (built-in MPPT, DJI MC4 solar cable)). DJI does not say whether this limit is open-circuit or working voltage, so we use the stricter reading: open-circuit voltage on your coldest morning.
- Cold raises panel voltage: we add 0.30% per °C below 77F (25°C), a typical figure, since this panel does not publish its own. At 20F one panel's 43.5 V becomes 47.6 V.
- The current limit for this input is not confirmed yet.
- Max 400 W on this input.
- Cold-morning voltage uses 0.30% per °C, typical for crystalline panels. This panel's own value is not published.
- Expected watts are the best case in full sun. Real-world midday output is usually 60 to 80% of that.
