Plug and play

Plug into a cig socket or Anderson plug, connect the Starlink cable, flick the switch. The adapter boosts 12V or 24V up to the clean 30V the Mini is designed for, so you get stable internet without an inverter. Moves between the ute, the hire car and the boat in seconds.

The bees knees for setups that just work

K2 power supply

One box that runs the Mini off 12V or 24V, converts it to a stable 30V, and switches on and off from up to 25 metres away with the included remotes. Power only flows when it is on, so there is no background drain flattening your battery overnight.

Wall passthroughs

A waterproof socket on the outside of the van or canopy, wired to 12V on the inside. Two flavours. A boosted outlet has the 12V to 30V booster built into the socket, so you plug the Mini straight in and nothing else is needed. A plain passthrough is just a sealed connector, you supply 30V behind it from a K2 or booster.

USB-C and cig cables

The Mini accepts 12V to 48V, so a plain cable from a cig socket does work. The catch is that 12V sits at the very bottom of that range. Thin cable, a long run or a battery under 12.2V and the dish reboots. A thicker 16AWG cable with a switch helps, a boosted adapter fixes it properly. USB-C is the other route: any true 100W PD charger becomes a Mini power supply.

The nuances

USB-C, cig or Anderson?

Three ways to feed the Mini without a dedicated booster. Here is what actually matters.

Battery under about 12.2V or a long thin cable is where a plain 12V feed starts rebooting the dish. If that is your setup, go boosted.

Hardwire it your way

DIY boosters

For the builder who wants the booster in the electrical bay, not on the dash. A simple 12V to 30V booster with bare tails and a fuse is cheap, waterproof and set and forget, but has no switch of its own, so add an inline remote or wire it through an isolator. Wide-input boosters that also take 24V or 48V banks cost more and are bulkier, but drop straight into a bigger system.

Straight answers on 12V power

The questions we get asked most about running a Starlink Mini off a battery. If yours is not here, ask us.

Talk to someone who runs this gearEmail hello@campervanbuilders.com.au
Do I need a booster, or can I run the Mini straight off 12V?

The Mini accepts 12V to 48V, so a plain cable from a cig socket does work. But 12V is the bottom of that range. A long or thin cable, or a battery below about 12.2V, and the dish drops out and reboots. Boosting to 30V gives it headroom so it stays up. If you are only ever plugging in with a healthy battery and a short run, the 16AWG cable is fine. For anything permanent, go boosted.

Will it flatten my battery?

No. A booster only draws what the Mini needs, about 22W on average. A 100Ah lithium runs a Mini well over a day. AGM gives noticeably less runtime since only about half the capacity is safely usable. If you hardwire to the vehicle main battery, an isolation switch is a must, or use the K2 so it draws nothing when off.

Plug and play or K2?

Plug and play if the Mini moves between vehicles or you want zero install. K2 if it lives in one van or caravan and you want to switch it on and off from your chair. Both give the same clean 30V output.

What does boosted mean on a wall outlet?

The 12V to 30V booster is built into the socket. You wire 12V or 24V to the back of it inside the van, plug the Mini in on the outside, and nothing else is needed. A plain passthrough is just a sealed connector, so you still need a K2 or booster behind it.

Can I use a USB-C charger?

Yes, with a true 100W PD source and our USB-C to DC cable. Our 140W cig adapter or 100W flush sockets are made for it. Cheap car chargers that claim 100W but cannot hold it are the usual cause of dropouts.

Do I still need the Starlink power brick or an inverter?

No. Every option on this page replaces the AC brick and runs straight from DC. Skipping the inverter saves the 10 to 15 percent an inverter wastes and removes one more thing to fail.
