Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today we'll be taking a look at our inner range cell phone signal booster for your single phone right here at etrailer. So etrailer.com is in Wentzville, Missouri and we're kind of in the middle of nowhere. What usually happens is if we take a right down the country roads, we lose cell service. So it's hard to make our calls, our texts don't send. What's a solution for that 'Cause I'm sure you've experienced that too as you go on your long road trips and adventures.
A signal booster just like this, will help out with that. So we'll talk about how a signal booster works and what kind of signal booster is gonna be best for you and your different types of situations. So the N-Range 2.0 is probably gonna be the most portable signal booster that SureCall offers. This is going to be a magnetic mount signal booster. So great if you need something as temporary, as well as very portable.
And you really have just two main parts to this. So you have your shark fin antenna which is your outside antenna. And then you have your phone mount which is gonna be your inside antenna. So compared to the larger offerings that SureCall has, which she usually has three main parts, your shark fin is gonna be a two-in-one. Then you're gonna have your inside antenna.
So you only have to worry about two main parts. This entire base of your shark fin antenna is the magnetic mount. So this mounts directly to the metallic part of your vehicle. Although, I do try to make sure that you have enough surface to cover the entire base. So how big is the base of this mount So in terms of width, it's going to be about three and a half inches.
In terms of length, it's going to be five inches length. And then for height or how much height this adds to top of your roof, it's gonna be about three and a quarter inches. Now those measurements are still important if you don't have a metal roof on your vehicle because you do have an option to use the included tape with this. It's gonna be the same size and that's what you can use to adhere to your non metallic roof. So this just adds to how portable this signal booster is. As you can see, the shark fin I added and the shark fin I already have on my vehicle, my own antenna is even taller than this so this is small in comparison. So here's your two main components of your booster. So you have your two-in-one outside antenna. So this is the antenna plus booster. This has a cable that is 10 feet long. Then you have your inside antenna or your phone mount. So this is almost six feet in length for the cable. So just add that together and that will help you figure out how to wire from your antenna all the way to where your phone is gonna sit. So we talked about how this can be used and how to figure out how to use it. So let's take this inside and I'll show you how to set this up. Now this uses a 12 volt plug which fits right into the 12 volt outlet of your vehicle. You can also use this with other 12 volt outlets just make sure that they have enough power to power the entire system. So this uses less than 12 watts of consumption. Just make sure that if you are using an outlet that is not on your vehicle. let's say you put a 12 volt outlet in a trailer, try to make sure to match the amperage 'cause this may pull a good amount of energy through. So I'll show you how to get an accurate measurement of a signal so you can see how much is boosted. You can see at the top that I have like zero, sometimes one bar of signal. That's actually not as accurate as looking at the actual decibel milliwatts. So I'm gonna check it on my phone and this process can be very easy on an Android. This will also work on an iPhone but I do recommend looking up how to field test an iPhone just to check that actual signal strength. You're just gonna go into your settings. You wanna look into your phone information, then you want to just see your SIM status and then you'll see your signal strength. So instead of just seeing a zero or one bars of strength, I can see the actual decibel milliwatts. So this will help you figure out whether you can boost your phone signal and how much you need of a boost. So if you're closer to zero that means you have a better signal. For example, I have a hundred and or negative 122. That's really, really poor signal. An example of excellent service would be something around negative 60. So that's how you can tell how much service you actually have and how
