【Oct 2026 Update】Best Portable Power Stations in Japan: Three Summer-Fall 2026 Releases Compared
Compare portable power stations by price per Wh and capacity per kg, and the answer shows up. The Jackery 1000 New V3 (July 2026) offers 1,024Wh, 1,500W and 10.6 kg. The Anker Solix S2000 (Sep 23) offers 2,010Wh, 1,500W and 16.2 kg. The BLUETTI AORA 100 mini, whose pre-orders opened in July, offers 1,004.8Wh, 700W and 10.7 kg.
Key points
- Release order: BLUETTI AORA 100 mini (pre-orders opened Jul 6), Jackery 1000 New V3 (Jul 24), Anker Solix S2000 (Sep 23)
- Capacity per kg: BLUETTI about 93.9Wh, Jackery about 96.6Wh, Anker about 124.1Wh
- Price per Wh (list or launch price): BLUETTI about JPY 96.3, Anker about JPY 99.5, Jackery about JPY 107.2
Which portable power station? Look at Wh per kg and yen per Wh, not just capacity
Choosing by capacity (Wh) alone goes wrong. The unit may be too heavy to carry, or the price may not fit.
Here are three models released from July to September 2026, in release order. As an IT consultant, I read the conditions behind the maximum figure first, so I divided capacity by weight and by price to put them on one scale.
The short answer: Jackery 1000 New V3 for portability plus high output, Anker Solix S2000 for big capacity, BLUETTI AORA 100 mini for a small, cheap way in.
Three yardsticks: capacity per kg, capacity per yen, output
Capacity per kg decides how hard it is to carry. Price per Wh decides value. Rated output (W) decides what you can run, such as a hair dryer or kettle.
| Criterion | Winner | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Capacity per kg | Anker Solix S2000 | About 124.1Wh per kg (2,010 / 16.2) |
| Capacity per yen | BLUETTI AORA 100 mini | About JPY 96.3 per Wh (96,800 / 1,004.8) |
| Output and portability | Jackery 1000 New V3 | 1,500W rated, 10.6 kg, 6,000 cycles |
Release order: dates and numbers
| Model | Release date (Japan) | Price (tax incl.) | Capacity | Rated output | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BLUETTI AORA 100 mini | Pre-orders from Jul 6, 2026 | JPY 96,800 | 1,004.8Wh | 700W (up to 1,400W) | 10.7 kg |
| Jackery 1000 New V3 | Jul 24, 2026 | JPY 109,800 | 1,024Wh | 1,500W (3,000W surge) | 10.6 kg |
| Anker Solix S2000 | Sep 23, 2026 | JPY 199,900 | 2,010Wh | 1,500W | 16.2 kg |
Sizes: BLUETTI 235 x 215 x 290 mm, Jackery 314 x 201 x 234 mm, Anker about 208 x 282 x 323 mm. Cycle life is 6,000 for Jackery and Anker (Anker to 80% capacity) and 6,000+ for BLUETTI.
Jackery 1000 New V3: 1,500W in 10.6 kg
Released Jul 24, 2026, this is the top model of Jackery's best-selling series. It has seven outputs: three AC, two USB-C (up to 100W), one USB-A and a car socket.
It is about 19% smaller than before and weighs 10.6 kg. For camping and for outages, I judge it a size that carries well and works for both.

BLUETTI AORA 100 mini: the small way into 1,000Wh
Pre-orders opened Jul 6, 2026 for this small 1,000Wh-class unit. At 700W rated it can't run 1,000W-plus appliances like a hair dryer, but it is plenty for phones, laptops and small appliances.
At about JPY 96.3 per Wh, it is the lowest of the three. BLUETTI sells through its own site, Amazon, Rakuten and Yahoo! Shopping stores; the button leads to its Rakuten store.
