That depends on your wallet. I don't know whether or not Trezor keeps broadcasting your transaction. Currently, the mempool limit is 4.95 sat/vbyte, anything lower than that won't even broadcast. But the same link dropped from 1.8 GB to 918 MB this year, so I have high hopes we'll get a good opportunity to consolidate inputs at low fee.

I've tried about 2 ~ 3 years ago by signing tx offline and broadcasting it manually.. there was still some broadcasters that were allowing spreading it! The new transaction too doesn't show in all explorers, of course, there were only few that were displaying the new tx...

Assuming it is still working, the method would be as follows:

1/ To export the (single address) wallet and import it to a wallet that allow reusing it..

2/ Spend like ~97% of the bitcoins in a single transaction for getting back 3% to the same wallet.

3/ Finally spend the 3% with very high fees to prioritize the tx confirmation ! ? ?? Roll Eyes



Obviously it need first to verify if there is still nods that will allow broadcasting tx with fees bellow the minimum!! Roll Eyes
