SpaceX Unveils Advanced Starlink Power Supply—Here’s Why Off-Grid Internet Will Never Be the Same in 2025
SpaceX releases a dual-input Starlink power supply supporting both AC and DC power, taking satellite internet further off the grid in 2025.
- Price: $200 standalone; bundled with new “Performance” dish at $1,999
- Power Inputs: Supports both AC & DC (and can use both at once)
- Weight: 4.6 lbs—triple the previous supply
- Compatibility: Works with standard $349 Starlink dish
SpaceX is shattering the limits of where you can bring fast Internet with its just-launched Advanced Starlink Power Supply. For the first time, Starlink users have an official solution that lets them keep their satellite dish running—whether they’re plugging into home wall outlets (AC), running on batteries in a remote cabin, or living the vanlife off solar (DC).
If you thought “internet everywhere” was hype, 2025 is making it fact. Here’s how this new device unlocks possibilities far beyond your living room.
What’s New With SpaceX’s Advanced Starlink Power Supply?
The latest hardware isn’t just another brick adapter. Unlike the original power supply—which only supported run-of-the-mill AC from household sockets—the Advanced Power Supply feeds on both AC and DC power sources. That’s a game-changer for digital nomads, campers, remote job sites, and eco-conscious homeowners.
You can even connect both AC and DC simultaneously, ensuring uninterrupted use if you’ve got a battery backup or solar setup. The device comes with dedicated power cables for both power types and integrates easily with today’s solar and battery systems.
And don’t overlook the extras: a microcontroller adds powerful monitoring features you’d expect from a premium tech upgrade—giving you real-time stats on power flow, Ethernet network activity, and even detecting issues like water intrusion. This is all delivered in a rugged, mountable unit fit for homes or server racks.

Who Needs This—and Why?
Are you traveling the country in an RV or working where powerlines don’t reach? The Advanced Power Supply is essential gear for Starlink users who:
- Rely on solar or off-grid battery systems
- Need consistent internet in storm-prone regions
- Want robust network features (like LAN port connectivity and power-outage resilience)
The product now stands as a top-tier solution above the $110 DC-to-DC adapter SpaceX released previously.
