Hi David,
Thanks for sharing your experience. Great to hear the Starlink Mini Battery Pack — AMPak 145 Portable Power Base Battery works well for you and is a nice addition during Boone docking.
Kind regards,

“We loved this for the first day up camping. The second day it wouldn’t turn on. Would charge but wouldn’t turn on when removed from the charger. Going to try and return it.”
Hi Wendy
Sorry for the trouble you had on your Ampak. I do see that CS was able to get a replacement sent out to you, if you have any further questions please let us know.
Best Regards

“The DEVOS AMPak 145 Portable Power Base Battery turned out to be an excellent addition to my Starlink Mini setup and exceeded my expectations.
Installation couldn’t be easier. You simply set the battery into the base, and it’s held securely in place by friction. There are no clips, latches, or complicated mounting hardware to deal with, making battery swaps quick and hassle-free.
Battery life was another pleasant surprise. With multiple devices connected and what I would consider normal usage, I got 5 hours of runtime on a full charge. Based on my previous experience, I was expecting closer to 4 hours, so getting an extra hour was a welcome bonus.
One feature that really impressed me is what appears to be power pass through capability. When I connected the AMPak to an external USB-C battery, the external battery showed a 100 watt output. It appeared that approximately 65 watts were charging the AMPak while the remaining 35 watts were simultaneously powering my Starlink Mini. This makes it easy to extend runtime without interrupting service.
The AMPak is also useful beyond powering Starlink. It doubles as a portable power bank, allowing you to charge phones, tablets, or even power a laptop when needed, making it a versatile piece of gear to keep on hand.
I also appreciated that it comes with both an AC charger and a USB-C charging cable, so everything needed to get started is included in the box.
One tip from my own experience: I used the entire setup inside a waterproof dry bag while fishing from both a boat and a kayak. It worked flawlessly and allowed me to live stream while kayak fishing in remote Baja, all while keeping the electronics protected from water and spray.
For me, the biggest advantage of the AMPak 145 is that it acts as a voltage buffer. This solves one of the biggest challenges many Starlink Mini users face. The Starlink Mini requires a higher input voltage than many portable power stations and battery packs can provide directly. Several of my friends have run into this exact problem. With the AMPak in the system, it bridges that gap, allowing Starlink Mini to run reliably from power packs that otherwise wouldn’t be able to power it. That alone makes it a worthwhile investment for anyone using Starlink Mini in the field.
Overall, the DEVOS AMPak 145 is simple to install, delivers longer runtime, offers useful pass through charging, doubles as a portable power bank, and solves one of the most common power compatibility issues for Starlink Mini users. If you rely on Starlink while camping, overlanding, boating, or fishing in remote locations, it’s a product that’s easy to recommend.”

“So far so good. Only used for 1 charge so far with my Mini Starlink and it seemed to last quite a while but I didn't time it. I will on the next usage. Fits in my hard case seemlessly when attached to the Starlink. Great design!”
