This Canadian edition is written for Canadian DJI Agras operators across Canada, from the Prairie grain belt of Saskatchewan, Alberta and Manitoba to the row crops of Ontario and Quebec and the orchards and vineyards of British Columbia and Niagara. It is the first-use guide to the C12000: supplied cables, the seven external service points, ventilation, status LEDs and first inspection. The procedure, specifications and warnings below are identical to the original edition linked above — the hardware does not change at the border. What changes for a Canadian operator is the regulatory and purchasing context: the aircraft this DJI C12000 Intelligent Power Supply supports falls into Transport Canada’s medium RPAS class (25–150 kg) and flies on an Advanced Operations pilot certificate under the November 2025 rules, with a Special Flight Operations Certificate for anything outside that envelope, and pricing is shown in Canadian dollars. Ares Acres stocks the C12000 charger, DB2160 batteries and charging accessories referenced in this guide as genuine DJI Agras OEM parts, ships them to Canada with free standard shipping, and shows CAD pricing at checkout.
The DJI C12000 Intelligent Power Supply is the high-power charging unit used with compatible DJI Agras Intelligent Flight Batteries. The manufacturer guide identifies the supplied cables, seven external service points and the first safety checks that should be completed before the unit is energized.
Quick Answer: The package includes the C12000 Intelligent Power Supply, a fast charging cable and a conversion cable. Before use, identify the charging cable, USB-C port, AC power port, ventilation holes, status LEDs, handle and fan dustproof cover. Place the unit on a flat, stable surface with adequate airflow before connecting power.
What comes with the C12000
DJI shows three primary items in the package: the C12000 Intelligent Power Supply, the fast charging cable and the conversion cable. The slow charging cable is handled separately in the slow-charging procedure and may need to be purchased separately depending on the market.
Seven external areas to know
- Charging cable - battery-side charging connection.
- USB-C port - used to connect the remote controller for activation, firmware and diagnostics.
- AC power port - receives the fast-charge cable or conversion-cable path.
- Ventilation holes - must remain unobstructed.
- Status LEDs - charging channel, DC output and AC input diagnostics.
- Handle - the proper physical carry point; DJI warns against moving the unit by pulling the charging cable.
- Dustproof cover - part of the cooling path and requires periodic cleaning.
First inspection before power
Inspect the enclosure, charging connector, AC port, cable insulation and the ventilation area for obvious damage or contamination. If there is buildup on the charging connector, DJI says to clean it only after the product is disconnected from external power.
Verified equipment paths
For T100 operators, the primary product path is the C12000 Intelligent Battery Charger. Battery-side support includes the DB2160 Intelligent Flight Battery, DB2160 Battery Cooling Station, Battery Air-Cooling System and Charging Extension Cable.

Canadian Operator FAQ: C12000 Intelligent Power Supply Setup Guide
Does Ares Acres ship the C12000 charger, DB2160 batteries and charging accessories to Canada?
Yes. Ares Acres ships genuine DJI Agras OEM parts, including the C12000 charger, DB2160 batteries and charging accessories referenced in this guide, to Canada with free standard shipping, and Canadian customers see CAD pricing at checkout.
Do I need an SFOC to use the DJI C12000 Intelligent Power Supply with my DJI Agras in Canada?
The DJI C12000 Intelligent Power Supply itself needs no aviation authorization. The DJI Agras aircraft it supports falls into Transport Canada’s medium RPAS class (25–150 kg) under the November 2025 rules and is flown within visual line of sight on an Advanced Operations pilot certificate; a Special Flight Operations Certificate is still required for operations outside that envelope, such as beyond visual line of sight or payloads Transport Canada treats as dangerous goods. Confirm current requirements with Transport Canada and your provincial regulator before operating.
Is this C12000 setup different for Canadian operators?
No. The C12000 setup described here is identical in every country; only the regulatory framework, the purchasing path and the units used in this guide differ. Confirm current requirements with Transport Canada and your provincial regulator before operating.
