From the X post:
The current hardware revision is mini2_prod1. The new terminal is slightly smaller than the original Starlink Mini. Its panel PCB measures 225 × 273 mm, compared with 236 × 276 mm for Mini 1.
Average EIRP is also slightly lower: 27.4 dBW, compared with 27.57 dBW. The transmit duty cycle has been reduced significantly, from 75% to 11%, which will result in lower uplink speeds. This limitation is most likely driven by the terminal’s power budget.
The terminal includes a built-in 4S lithium battery managed by a BQ40Z-series BMS. Battery capacity is currently unknown. Charging is provided via a USB-C Power Delivery port, supporting an input range of 11–24 V.
The MAC thermal thresholds have been increased to 95°C and 99°C, compared with 79°C and 83°C on Mini 1. The battery thermal shutdown threshold is set to 80°C. GPS - present. Explicitly configured for in-motion use. The SoC is the same "Catapult".
