OC-SLMINI-DEWALT-ADPT
Run your Starlink Mini directly from your Dewalt 20V MAX or FLEXVOLT battery — no inverter, no powerstation, no mains power required. This adapter plugs directly into any Dewalt 18V/20V MAX tool battery and delivers clean DC power to the Starlink Mini via a 5.5mm DC connector. If you already carry Dewalt batteries on the job or in the field, this is the simplest way to keep your Starlink Mini running off-grid.
The Starlink Mini accepts DC input between 12V and 48V. Dewalt 20V MAX batteries output approximately 20V nominal, which sits perfectly within that range. This adapter provides a direct, efficient DC-to-DC connection — no AC inverter losses, no bulky powerstation needed. The result is a clean, lightweight power solution that works with the batteries you already own.
Works with the full Dewalt 20V MAX and 18V XR range sold in Australia, including:
The Starlink Mini draws 20W when idle and 25–35W under typical use (browsing, streaming, video calls), with peaks up to 40W. The table below gives estimated runtimes based on usable battery capacity (accounting for DC conversion efficiency of ~92% and ~80% usable depth of discharge).
| Dewalt Battery | Capacity | Rated Wh | Idle (20W) | Typical (30W) | Heavy (40W) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DCB201 / DCB203 | 1.5–2.0Ah | 30–40Wh | ~1.1 hrs | ~45 min | ~33 min |
| DCB204 | 4.0Ah | 80Wh | ~2.9 hrs | ~1.9 hrs | ~1.5 hrs |
| DCB205 | 5.0Ah | 100Wh | ~3.7 hrs | ~2.5 hrs | ~1.8 hrs |
| DCB206 | 6.0Ah | 120Wh | ~4.4 hrs | ~2.9 hrs | ~2.2 hrs |
| DCB208 | 8.0Ah | 160Wh | ~5.9 hrs | ~3.9 hrs | ~2.9 hrs |
| DCB606 FLEXVOLT 6Ah | 6.0Ah (20V mode) | 120Wh | ~4.4 hrs | ~2.9 hrs | ~2.2 hrs |
| DCB609 FLEXVOLT 9Ah | 9.0Ah (20V mode) | 180Wh | ~6.6 hrs | ~4.4 hrs | ~3.3 hrs |
| DCB612 FLEXVOLT 12Ah | 12.0Ah (20V mode) | 240Wh | ~8.8 hrs | ~5.9 hrs | ~4.4 hrs |
* Estimates based on usable capacity (80% DoD) and DC conversion efficiency (~92%). Actual runtime will vary depending on network activity, signal conditions, ambient temperature, and battery age. Starlink Mini rated at 20W idle, 25–35W typical, up to 40W peak (SpaceX specification).
This adapter is designed for use with the Starlink Mini only. It is not compatible with Starlink Gen 3 (Standard/Standard Actuated) or Gen 2 dishes, which require different DC input voltages or connectors. For Dewalt battery compatibility, this adapter works with all standard 18V/20V MAX slide-in batteries. FLEXVOLT batteries function in 20V mode when used with 20V MAX tools and adapters.
Ships Australia-wide from Outcamp in Kapunda, South Australia.
