Run times are approximate. The Mini draws more power when it is busy with data, has more devices connected, is starting up or finding satellites, and in rain. Battery age and its BMS also affect capacity.

Need longer? Swap in a fresh battery and keep going, or run the Mini from 12V with one of our 30V boosters.
