That sounds cool.
Got any pics of that tucked 12v setup?
Yessir!

first picture is the battery setup, tucked behind the washer fluid reservoir on a custom mount, the second is the bms and charger sticky tape and ziptied to the radiator housing for those batteries, and third is the accessories switch (before i installed the wiring for the starlink)

I disabled "snow melt" on Mini, tried all three USB-C ports in Cybertruck (with nothing else plugged in) and measure output around 67 watts. Mini does require 100 watts but when running I see peak power demand 45 watts. I can run my Mini on either an external 60w or 100w USB-C PD. Starlink is on 2025.22.0. Looks like Cybertruck's USB-C might be the issue. Hmm....
The Tesla supplied adapter requires a 100W (20V/5A) USB-C port. The mini itself does not, it is 60W max.

Cybertruck ports supply up to 65W max.

This cable runs mini from Cybertruck (20V/3.25A).
Yes, I’m using a 3rd party cable, purchased on Amazon.
