Compatibility, model differences and what is included.

Which Starlink does Ravion work with?

Ravion Gen1, Lite and Gen2 clip-on batteries are designed for Starlink Mini. Do not assume they fit other Starlink dishes. Check the model before ordering.

A Starlink Mini terminal is not included with the battery. Compare Ravion batteries.

What is the difference between Gen1, Lite and Gen2?
  • Lite: 99Wh in a lighter format, with USB-C input up to 60W and USB-C device charging. The Mini’s Ethernet port is covered when the battery is fitted.
  • Gen1: 158Wh with an included Ravion 60W wall charger. The Mini’s Ethernet port is covered when fitted.
  • Gen2: 158Wh with a quick-release handle, accessible Ethernet and USB-C PD input/output up to 60W.

Choose by the features you need. Gen1 and Gen2 both offer 158Wh; Lite offers 99Wh.

How do I identify my Ravion battery?

Check your order details for the product name: Gen1, Lite or Gen2. Compare the product photos and watt-hour (Wh) rating with your battery. Gen2 has a quick-release handle and accessible Ethernet; Lite has 99Wh capacity.

Not sure which version you have? Send Ravion Support a clear photo of the label before choosing a charger, accessory or travel arrangement.

What comes in the box?
  • Gen1: battery and Ravion 60W power charger.
  • Lite: battery, DC charging cable and USB-C charging cable.
  • Gen2: battery, USB-C to USB-C cable, DC-to-DC cable and user manual.

Lite and Gen2 do not list a wall adapter in the standard box contents. Starlink Mini, carrying cases and mounts are not included unless your selected bundle specifically lists them.

Runtime & power

Plan around your setup, not a single battery-life promise.

How long will a Ravion battery power Starlink Mini?

Runtime depends on the battery model, Starlink’s power demand, temperature, battery condition and any other devices drawing power. Gen1 and Gen2 store 158Wh; Lite stores 99Wh.

Watt-hours describe stored energy, not a guaranteed number of operating hours. Test a full charge with your actual setup before relying on it for a trip or a full workday, and allow a reserve for changing conditions.

Why is my runtime shorter than expected?

First, check that the battery reached a full charge. Then test Starlink Mini without another device connected to the battery. Extra USB-C loads, temperature and changes in Starlink’s power use can reduce runtime.

If the result still seems unusual, contact support with your model, charger details, approximate runtime and connected devices. This helps us distinguish a charging issue from the load on the battery.

Can I charge my phone or laptop as well?

Gen2: the USB-C PD port supports compatible devices at up to 60W. The published combined output is up to 120W across the Starlink power connection and USB-C, subject to each port’s limit. It does not mean 120W from one port.

Lite: USB-C device charging is supported. Check the rating on your unit and use a compatible cable.

Powering another device uses stored energy and reduces the runtime available to Starlink Mini. See the Gen2 product details.

Charging your battery

Model-specific inputs, pass-through power and charging accessories.

How do I charge Ravion Gen2?

Use a compatible USB-C PD source and the USB-C to USB-C cable, or a compatible DC source and the DC-to-DC cable. Gen2 supports USB-C PD input up to 60W.

The published DC input is 12–30V, up to 2A / 60W. Confirm the voltage, connector and polarity before connecting a third-party supply. The product guide identifies the supplied DC cable for use with the original Starlink charger. Keep ports dry before charging.

View Gen2 details.

How do I charge Ravion Gen1?

Use the Ravion charger supplied with Gen1. If you need a replacement, select the For Gen1 option on the Ravion charger page and confirm it matches your battery.

Do not choose a charger only because its plug fits. Gen1 and Gen2 have different electrical specifications. The included wall charger is for indoor use.

How do I charge Ravion Lite?

Lite supports USB-C input up to 60W and includes a USB-C charging cable and a DC charging cable. Use a compatible power source and cable that match the input rating on your battery. A wall adapter is not listed in the standard package.

If you are unsure whether your adapter is compatible, send support a photo of the battery label and the adapter’s output label before connecting them. View Lite details.

How long does a full charge take?

Charging time varies by model, starting charge, power source, cable and whether Starlink Mini is running at the same time. A lower-power source will charge more slowly, and a source shared with other devices may deliver less power than its headline rating.

For the clearest charging-time check, use the correct charger and charge the battery without powering Starlink or another device. Watch the battery’s charge indicator rather than relying on one time estimate for every model.

Can I use Starlink Mini while the battery is charging?

Gen1, Lite and Gen2 support pass-through charging. Gen2 specifically supports it through a compatible DC or USB-C source. Use the correct charging input for your model.

Pass-through support does not mean the battery will always gain charge while in use. If your setup uses more power than the source supplies, the battery can still discharge. This feature should not be treated as a promise of zero-interruption UPS switching.

Can I recharge from solar or a vehicle?

Ravion offers a 74W solar panel and a 12–24V vehicle power adapter. Confirm compatibility with your exact battery model and cable before ordering or connecting either accessory.

Solar charging depends on sunlight, panel position and the load on the battery. Do not assume a fixed solar charge time or connect an unverified panel or vehicle supply directly to the battery.

Setup & Ethernet

A secure fit, safe removal and access to wired connections.

How do I attach and remove the battery?

Follow the instructions for your model, align the battery and Starlink Mini connectors, and check the battery is fully seated before use. Never force misaligned connectors.

Gen2 has a quick-release handle that releases both latches together. Gen1 and Lite use a different attachment design, so do not apply the Gen2 release method to them.

If a battery will not release, stop rather than prying or forcing it. Send support your model and a photo of the attachment area for the correct removal guidance.

Can I use Ethernet with the battery installed?

Gen2: yes. Its built-in Ethernet connection provides external RJ45 access without removing the battery.

Gen1 and Lite: no direct port access while fitted. Their product listings state that the battery blocks Starlink Mini’s RJ45 Ethernet port. Choose Gen2 if wired networking is important to your setup.

Can I use a tripod or mount?

Gen2 has a built-in 1/4-inch threaded mounting point and non-slip feet. Lite’s product images also show a built-in 1/4-inch mount. Check the mount’s model compatibility and load rating before use.

Do not assume every Ravion mount or carrying case fits every battery generation. Contact support if your accessory listing does not name your model.

Outdoor use & flights

Water resistance, temperature and lithium-battery travel.

Is my Ravion battery waterproof?

Gen1, Lite and Gen2 are listed as IP65 dust- and water-resistant. Treat this as weather protection, not permission to submerge the battery.

Do not immerse it or charge through wet connectors. Check that connectors and protective covers are correctly fitted for your model, and keep ports dry before charging. Water resistance does not establish that an open charging or Ethernet connection is protected in rain.

Can I use or charge it in extreme temperatures?

Follow the charging and operating temperature limits for your exact model. Those limits are not necessarily the same. Do not assume a temperature range shown for one battery applies to another.

Avoid direct heat and hot, enclosed spaces. If the battery is unusually hot, swollen, damaged or has wet connectors, stop using or charging it and contact support for guidance.

Can I take a Ravion battery on an airplane?

Check the Wh rating on the battery label and get your airline’s acceptance before travel. Battery capacity is not TSA product certification and does not guarantee boarding. Applicable batteries must meet UN 38.3 testing requirements; ask RAVION for the test summary for your exact model.

  • Lite, 99Wh: within the FAA’s standard 100Wh size limit. Carry it in cabin baggage, not checked luggage. Follow your airline’s quantity, storage and onboard-use rules.
  • Gen1 and Gen2, 158Wh: under current U.S. FAA rules, batteries over 100Wh and no more than 160Wh require airline approval. A passenger may carry no more than two such spare batteries, in cabin baggage only.
  • Double-battery bundle: each battery is 158Wh. Two batteries use the full U.S. FAA allowance for spares over 100Wh and up to 160Wh. A bundle purchase does not provide airline approval.

Power-bank restrictions can be stricter. ICAO’s rules effective March 27, 2026 limit each passenger to two power banks total, regardless of capacity. Some airlines already prohibit portable chargers above 100Wh. IATA’s rules effective January 1, 2027 prohibit passenger power banks over 100Wh. Ask your airline how it classifies your clip-on battery and whether it accepts your exact model on every flight; do not assume a spare-battery allowance applies to a power bank.

Protect each battery from damage and short circuits. Remove batteries from any cabin bag checked at the gate and keep them with you. Do not travel with damaged or recalled batteries. Follow airline instructions for storage and use, and do not recharge power banks onboard.
