⚡ Key Features

🔌 Genuine Step-Up Converter
Not just a pass-through cable — this actively boosts your 12V input to a stable 20V output, reducing boot failures and improving reliability over a direct 12V connection.

💰 Budget-Friendly Entry Point
Our most affordable step-up converter option. Ideal for drivers who mainly use Starlink with the engine running and want a meaningful upgrade over a basic 12V cable.

📐 Compact Design
Small form factor with a short 15cm PVC-jacketed cable keeps your dashboard tidy. Stores easily in a glovebox or Starlink Mini carry case.

🤔 20V vs 30V — Which One?

The 20V Compact is the budget-friendly choice for driving use where your alternator keeps voltage stable. For stationary use with the engine off (camping, overnight stops), the 30V converter provides significantly more headroom and is the safer choice. If in doubt, go 30V.

Common Questions

Q: Can I use this while parked with the engine off?
A: The 20V output works best with the engine running, where alternator charge keeps input voltage above 13V. With the engine off and battery voltage dropping, 20V leaves less headroom for reliable startup. For extended stationary use, consider our 30V step-up converters which handle low-voltage conditions much better.

Q: What cable do I need to connect this to my Starlink Mini?
A: This converter outputs DC female — so you can plug in the original 15m cable that came with your Starlink Mini, or use one of our 2m, 3m, or 5m DC male-to-male cables for a cleaner, shorter run.

Q: Why choose the 20V over the 30V converter?
A: Price. The 20V Compact is our most affordable step-up option — ideal if you mainly use Starlink while driving and want a budget-friendly boost over a direct 12V cable. If you camp or run the dish with the engine off regularly, the 30V is the better investment.

Q: Does this just pass through 12V or does it actually boost voltage?
A: It boosts — this is a genuine step-up converter that takes your 12V (or up to 24V) input and converts it to a steady 20V output. That's a meaningful improvement over a direct 12V cable, especially when your battery voltage starts to sag.

Whether you're working the paddock, running a remote site, or heading bush for the weekend — reliable 12V power for your Starlink Mini.
