The Future of Starlink: SpaceX Rolls Out Advanced Power Supply With All-New Features for 2025—Here’s Why RVers and Off-Grid Users Are Buzzing
SpaceX’s new Advanced Starlink Power Supply offers AC/DC support, smart monitoring, and rugged build. Essential for off-grid and RV users in 2025.
- Price: $200 for the Advanced Power Supply (standalone)
- Performance Dish Cost: $1,999, with supply included
- Weight: 4.6 lbs (vs. 1.43 lbs on the standard power supply)
- Inputs Supported: AC & DC—including backup solutions
SpaceX is shaking up satellite internet yet again by launching a versatile Advanced Power Supply for the Starlink ecosystem. Designed with both innovation and practicality in mind, this new hardware is built to empower everyone from urban dwellers to off-grid explorers and world-traveling RV owners.
The Advanced Power Supply now officially retails on the Starlink shop for $200. SpaceX first bundled the accessory with its top-tier $1,999 “Performance” Starlink dish but quickly pivoted to make the power supply available as a standalone upgrade, ensuring compatibility with the affordable $349 standard Starlink dish as well.
The timing couldn’t be better: 2025’s connectivity trends prioritize adaptability and off-grid empowerment, making SpaceX’s latest launch a headline move.
What Makes the New Starlink Power Supply Special?
Compared to the standard AC-only power supply, the Advanced Power Supply breaks new ground. It works with both AC and DC power inputs—the latter being a holy grail for those living off the grid, on boats, or in custom solar setups.
SpaceX already addressed the DC-only gap in late 2024, releasing a $110 DC-to-DC adaptor. But this new upgrade takes it a giant leap further, allowing users to connect both AC (traditional wall outlets) and DC (solar panels, vehicle batteries) at once for seamless battery backup.
Plus, a newly embedded microcontroller turns this into a true smart device. Users can now monitor power input and output, check Ethernet metrics, and even detect grid brownouts or moisture in connectors.
Q: Who Really Needs the Advanced Power Supply?
A: Anyone serious about connectivity on the move or in remote locations. The power supply is a godsend for:
– RV and van-life enthusiasts craving fast, stable Starlink internet on the road.
– Homeowners prepping for outages who want backup power flexibility.
– Solar power fans integrating Starlink into clean energy setups.
– Adventurers and disaster response teams needing robust comms.
It’s also ideal for tinkerers eager for detailed power stats—and DIY types who want a reliable Ethernet LAN port or easily mount hardware to a wall or server rack.
How To Upgrade Your Starlink System in 2025
1. Visit the official Starlink shop and locate the Advanced Power Supply.
2. Check dish compatibility—works with both Performance and Standard Starlink dishes (not yet confirmed for older models).
3. Add the accessory to your cart and select fast shipping options.
4. Once it arrives, use the dedicated AC and DC cables for simple, clean installation.
5. Mount using the integrated bracket for wall or DIN rail setups.

Q: Is the Price Justified?
A: At $200, the Advanced Power Supply is an investment, especially when added to the standard dish. But for off-grid and professional users, its flexibility, ruggedness, and insight features pay for themselves in reliability. The smart monitoring alone sets it apart in a landscape previously dominated by third-party solutions.
