I dont know whether or not the current in-car starlink devices require an extra 12v-to-220V/110V adapter, or whether it's included, or integrated. These 12V-220V/110V adapters are relatively big, necessitate fans.  If they are still needed for starlink in-car devices is probably because of higher transmit power that is necessary to reach to 360km altitude. They could reduce that in-car power need by bringing the sats even lower, or other non-sat objects like HAPs.  Or by augmenting the starlink sat antennas sizes.
