After pluto and any other KBO its set to intercept, how far can NH go before it dies on use? Can it reach the heliopause? Does it have any means of analyzing the heliopause and interstellar wind beyond it?

Power at Launch is about 240w. I believe Alan Stern posted here 190w are needed to operate including the science instruments (encounter). No idea about the minimum power needed just to live.
