Answer
Why does my power station switch itself off overnight when powering Starlink?
Check the power station's event information, remaining charge and output settings before blaming Starlink. Possible causes include a depleted battery, an output timer, low-load shutdown or a protection event. Starlink's own Sleep Schedule may change the overnight load, so check both devices.
Some power stations let you change an AC timeout. For example, EcoFlow documents this control for the DELTA 2; do not assume another model has identical settings. Follow the manual for your exact unit.
First repeat the setup while you are present. Confirm which output stops, record the time, and compare it with the configured timers and battery level. Measure the complete load and include inverter losses when estimating runtime.
Do not defeat overheating or electrical protection, and do not add a wasteful dummy load as the first fix. If the output stops despite sufficient charge and appropriate settings, contact the power-station manufacturer with the observations. Retest overnight only after the behaviour is understood.
