Who sells Starlink, and how do I order through your link?

Starlink is sold by SpaceX at starlink.com. Click any “Order Starlink” button on this page; it opens starlink.com with our referral already attached. To count as a referral, the kit and plan must be ordered directly on starlink.com through the link, not from a retail store or reseller.

Which plan is right for an RV or travel?

Starlink's Roam plans are made for RVs, campers and working on the go. Residential plans are for a fixed home address. Compare current plans and pricing on starlink.com before you order.

How much power does Starlink use?

Starlink's official spec sheets list average power consumption of 75–100 W for the Standard kit and 25–40 W for the Mini. Actual draw varies with weather, temperature and usage.

Can the Starlink Mini run on 12V or USB-C?

The Mini has a 12–48 V DC input rated at 60 W. Per Starlink's spec sheet, USB-C power needs a 100 W (20 V / 5 A minimum) USB-PD source and Starlink's USB-C to barrel jack cable accessory.

Can GreenTechFusion design a solar system to run Starlink?

Yes. We design portable and off-grid solar and battery systems for RVs, cabins and backup power in the Texas Hill Country and Rhode Island. Contact us for a system design.

Starlink Internet for RV, Off-Grid & Rural Homes

Starlink Internet, Anywhere You Go

GreenTechFusion is a mobile renewable energy consultant working the Texas Hill Country (Kerrville) in winter and Rhode Island (Portsmouth) in summer. Our RV, off-grid and rural customers keep asking about Starlink, so here is what we tell them: what it is for, which plan fits, and how to run it on solar.

Who It's For

Rural Homes

Ranches and homes past the end of the cable or fiber line in the Hill Country and beyond.

RVs & Travel

Full-timers and snowbirds who need internet at the campground, boondocking site or on the road.

Off-Grid Cabins

Cabins and camps running on solar and batteries, where every watt counts.

Backup Internet

A second connection for storms and outages, paired with a battery backup system.

Starlink Plans & Hardware

Residential

For a fixed home address, with unlimited data. Starlink offers several Residential speed tiers, and some tiers are only available in select areas.

Order Roam

Standard Kit

The full-size dish for homes and larger RV setups. Official spec: average power consumption 75–100 W, runs from AC power through the included power supply.

Order Standard

Starlink Mini

A compact, backpack-size dish with built-in Wi-Fi. Official spec: average 25–40 W, 12–48 V DC input (60 W), ideal for solar and power stations.

Order Mini

Power Starlink with Solar

Size your battery and solar from daily energy use: watt-hours per day = watts × hours of use.

Estimate only, using the upper end of Starlink's official average power figures. Real use varies with weather, heat, snow melt and usage.
Kit	Avg. watts (spec)	8 hrs/day	24 hrs/day
Starlink Mini	25–40 W	about 320 Wh	about 960 Wh
Standard Kit	75–100 W	about 800 Wh	about 2,400 Wh

Worked example (estimate): a Mini at 40 W for 8 hours uses 40 × 8 = 320 Wh. Add roughly 15–20% for inverter or converter losses and you need about 380 Wh a day, which a 1,000 Wh portable power station covers with room to spare. Running the Mini on DC (12 V or USB-C PD) avoids inverter losses. To recharge that each day, a 200–300 W solar panel is a common starting point in good sun, but your location and season matter.

Example Solar-Powered Starlink Setups

Three example sizing estimates using Starlink's official average power figures for the dish only (no other loads included), plus 20% for conversion losses, 80% usable battery depth of discharge, and 75% overall solar system efficiency. Peak sun hours are approximate. Example estimate - actual needs vary. These are not customer installs.

Weekend RV / Camping (Mini)

Example estimate - actual needs vary.

Dish: Starlink Mini at 40 W (top of the 25–40 W spec range)
Use: 8 hours/day
Dish energy: 40 W × 8 h = 320 Wh
+20% conversion losses: 320 × 1.2 = 384 Wh/day
Battery (1 day, 80% usable depth of discharge): 384 ÷ 0.8 = 480 Wh → about a 500 Wh power station
Solar, Kerrville (~5 peak sun hrs, approx.) with 75% system efficiency: 384 ÷ (5 × 0.75) = 102 W → about 100–150 W
Solar, Rhode Island (~4 peak sun hrs, approx.): 384 ÷ (4 × 0.75) = 128 W → about 150 W

Full-Time RV / Remote Work

Example estimate - actual needs vary.

Dish: Starlink Mini at 40 W
Use: 12 hours/day (workday plus evening)
Dish energy: 40 W × 12 h = 480 Wh; +20% losses: 480 × 1.2 = 576 Wh/day
Battery (2 days, 80% DoD): 576 × 2 ÷ 0.8 = 1,440 Wh → about 1.5 kWh
Solar: Kerrville 576 ÷ (5 × 0.75) = 154 W; Rhode Island 576 ÷ (4 × 0.75) = 192 W → about 200 W
Same 12 hrs with a Standard Kit at 100 W: 100 × 12 × 1.2 = 1,440 Wh/day; battery 1,440 × 2 ÷ 0.8 = 3,600 Wh; solar 384 W (Kerrville) / 480 W (Rhode Island)

Off-Grid Cabin, Standard 24/7

Example estimate - actual needs vary.

Dish: Standard Kit at 100 W (top of the 75–100 W spec range)
Use: 24 hours/day
Dish energy: 100 W × 24 h = 2,400 Wh; +20% inverter losses: 2,400 × 1.2 = 2,880 Wh/day
Battery (2 days, 80% DoD): 2,880 × 2 ÷ 0.8 = 7,200 Wh → about 7.2 kWh
Solar: Kerrville 2,880 ÷ (5 × 0.75) = 768 W → about 800 W; Rhode Island 2,880 ÷ (4 × 0.75) = 960 W → about 1,000 W
