    Next step, you may want to convert the router to DC power supply rather than Original AC. This will cut the power consumption 50% off, which is from 70w to 30w. Huge difference with a 200Ah battery in boondocking.

      We will do the 12V in the future. For now we use the Ecoflow Delta Max 2 when not plugged in since we now have an extra 200 Ah battery

      I have an in-motion and I think it consumes nearly 250w

      That’s what I heard too, sometimes no signals with lots of trees. I guess if that happens to us then we have to drive to a clear spot to make a phone call or text. 😂

    When I installed a bidet in the RV everyone was amazed but there’s really nothing to it. Took me about 30 minutes.
    Please keep the videos coming they are awesome!

      So far we have pretty signal at the campgrounds with lots of trees. The AC is not blocking the Starlink. We bought the AC unit from Recpro and had Airstream dealer replaced it.

    If you can share, what model of Starlink did you go with? What service? Are you able to use it while driving?
    I also want to do the install of the same A/C unit. I hate that amount of noise of the stock A/C that came with my Airstream Interstate.

    • @BamBamRVAdventures
      @BamBamRVAdventures  4 месяца назад +1

      Thank you for watching. We have the standard Starlink with the Roam plan $150/month. We turned the service as needed for 30 days. We tested that it works while driving but we are not supposed to use it per policy.
      The new AC is so much quieter and nice to have heating function too just in case our Truma heater breaks we still can use this AC for heat. 🤗
