How long will a battery run a Starlink Mini?
From Starlink's Mini specification sheet and each power station maker's page, checked November 2026.
Short answer
Starlink gives the Mini an average draw of 25 to 40 W. A 1,000 Wh power station runs it for roughly 21 to 34 hours; a 300 Wh one for about 6 to 10. It takes 12 to 48 V DC (60 W) or USB-C Power Delivery at 100 W, so it can skip the inverter.

Capacity × 85% (the allowance for losses Jackery and EcoFlow use) ÷ watts. Starlink doesn't publish idle or snow-melt figures, so the range is its stated average. On USB-C, the port must deliver 100 W (20 V, 5 A); a weaker port won't run it.
