For WAY off-grid campers out West with ZERO cell service, SL is revolutionary. A side benefit with that type of use are the speeds one enjoys with a wide open network - 300 mb is not uncommon. Suspending service ($0/mo) when not on-the-road makes it’s annual cost manageable.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Yes, we traveled overseas earlier this year for 3 months, and just paused our billing while we were gone. Paying $0/month for a while really drops the cost per month average.

[@bookooc5605]

I have seen dozens of videos by RV "influencers" who got it for free. Whether you paid for it or not, your wit makes me love your videos. I am next door in GA. Love you guys.

[@davidtotten3042]

The wife and I have had one for about a year now. We are on the roam package. It is for us truly a game changer. We live and camp in the west, most of the time far from a cell tower. While not perfect, it is the only real option we have. As long as we have north west clear patch of sky, we have service. We average about 60 megs up and 15 down, but have had as high as 150 up. The biggest con so far is two price increases since signing up. Hope they are done with that for a while.

[@lesscodetube]

We were in Ontario all of last summer and Starlink was the only option that worked reliably.

[@ShawnPatterson402]

Interesting product for sure. One of the reasons I love camping so much mind you is to get away. Quite happy to be off in a quiet spot with no phone or internet or anything but the trailer, my wife, a bottle of wine or two, some good hiking or biking near by and of course a few good books as well. I realize for some it apparently is quite necessary to be constantly connected, but for some of us the disconnected life works beautifully. As always, safe travels....

[@PhotographybyTimWMoore]

Totally agree! Too much internet at home. It’s nice to escape in the RV!

[@budcanyon481]

The options you present on the road keep my interest up in RVing. In a few months my wife and I will be living fulltime on the road. The Starlink product is out of my price range. I plan on using free public WIFI with a VPN for security. Keep up your wonderful videos. Safe travel.

Hi Sean and Kristi, how timely. We watched your video last night courtesy of our Starlink RV. We are camping in the mountains of Idaho with no services no hookups and love our Starlink.

[@christinecharbonneau4448]

I have the mobility package, and the “dishie” is installed on the roof of my Airstream. It is a little weird to install a tilted dish on a curved roof, but I have never had less than 5 fan “bars” since I had it installed in January-no matter where I parked it. I did have a guy in a very tall rv come to me in a panic at a rest stop and claim that “something was falling off my roof” because it looked crooked to them. Nah, that’s just how she sits. Love this service.

[@NvFlyAngler]

I used Starlink right after Christmas last year while at Cattail Cove SP outside of Lake Havasu City. We got lucky with our site and I was able to work with almost zero issues for four days. Will be doing the same this summer, working while we’re in MT and WY. I’m happy with the performance and overall reliability so far. Thank for the video!

[@StephSH]

We got ours last April, just before the RV plan became available, so we had to play games with the “service address” in order to get it, but we converted it to the RV plan when they started allowing that. Now you can order the RV package and they won’t waitlist you. Being in Ohio, we’ve had mixed results on speed- it was never meant to be the best internet source in populated areas, and we knew that when we ordered it. It’s definitely been useful in situations where we didn’t have cell service. Thanks for reviewing Starlink without hating on Elon, lol, he might be crazy, but he’s doing some interesting things.

[@KitHein]

I have a similar set up and get good coverage in remote locations. One thing to note is that when Starlink says you need a clear line of site to the sky, that includes not having any plants in the way. If you have vegetation the way, you can have a severe loss of signal if the satellite moves behind it. I use both the stand which comes with the Starlink or the pipe adapter and a section of chain link fence top rail in order to get the clearest view to the sky.

[@herveyforward5956]

After all the KZbin install videos. I fixed Star Link! Drill this cut that, bypass this neuter that ,throw away this rebuild that, remount it redesign it get a better router keep the old original router! And here you come out like the common person. Take it out of the box, plug it in the side of the Airstream set the router down, get out the app and make it work. Storage bins! protective covers -Ha Yours rides in the back of the cab. Outstanding Video Sean. Keeping it simple and real. Thanks!

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Ha! A few viewers have criticized that rat's nest of cable I've been schlepping around. But as you have wisely surmised, this is all part of a carefully orchestrated strategy (not AT ALL due to laziness on my part) to identify with the common person. One of these days we will figure out a better way to handle it, but for now we are keeping it sloppy, I mean, real! 😂

[@kathyownbey9128]

We have Starlink at our home for over a year and love it. It’s really the only high speed internet service available for where we live. Never tried it camping yet but may eventually try it if we ever are able to work remotely.

[@rvfuntimes6144]

We got our StarLink last season while here at GVCG. Being in Loop E we have the perfect spot to turn it to the Northern Sky. Loaded up last fall and head to Florida and along the way if we had a Northern Sky we had connection. Stayed in SW Florida for the winter and it worked flawlessly.

$600 for parts and $150 a month just to watch tv. A little more than my traveling needs are budgeted for.

[@brucewedeking5447]

Also had SL for a year. Great product! Stream TV channels, surf net and provides phone service. Maybe a little pricey but We are in our 70s, it a necessity! 12 gal Husky storage bin will solve your storage problem, and Flag Pole Buddy will make set up simple. I mounted router inside RV plugged into an inverter powered outlet. Then I prewired trailer using provided SL cable. I Used a weather proof RJ45 connector jack to plug in antenna. Yes this means cutting the SL cable but once you install RJ45 fittings on the ends You can now carry an extra 50ft of CAT 5 shielded cable in case you need to move the antenna away from trailer to get clear view of sky.

[@recreationalknittingpodcast]

Thanks for reviewing this. we’ve looked at this several times during our three years on the road. Prices have gone up a lot since we first looked into it.

[@mrpopo573]

For those of us working full time remote from our rigs (four years for us) Starlink has been an interesting ride in the 20 months we've owned it. It's far slower than our TMobile 5g in our Peplink setup and quite expensive now. Even more important for our work over zoom is latency, something Starlink struggles with currently (typically over 120ms average.) If the capacity of the constellation catches up with the user level it could be like the old days when we first got it. In some cities and states it's slower than dial up or campground wifi and tree cover is a no go.

Our Starlink has been a lifesaver. I just need to be sure to get a campsite with minimal overhead obstructions.

[@bwbrady8372]

We got "residential" SL about two years ago, back when the equipment cost $500. Living rurally where internet options are limited, it has been fantastic. The one negative is that the features/options of the various types of SL accounts, seem to change frequently. At first we could finagle portability. Then we couldn't. Then (for an extra $25/month) we had portability again. Then they took it away (unless you were grandfathered in). Now (we think) we have it back (for an extra $30/month). Or .... they were going to start throttling. Wait, changed their minds and no throttling. And the terminology changes -- RV to Roam to Mobile. It can be very confusing and keeps us on our toes. But all in all, we love SL.

[@rdrose61]

We use Cordpro CP-100 to store cable. It is the best and cheapest (under $10) option we have found. We also use the ethernet adapter to our own separate router to cut down on the plugging-unplugging to the Starlink router and reduce the setup steps. Out west, it is often our only option even though we have devices for AT&T, Verizon and T-mobile cellular.

[@TomSpurlock]

Sean, when pausing the roam plan, it has to be done before your next billing date, at least 2wks before the billing date. So if your billing is on the 15th, and you want it paused the subscription on June 15th, you have to actually pause it online by June 1st. Otherwise it won't pause the billing until July 15th, the next billing cycle. BTW, they don't have customer service by phone, which is one gripe I have.

[@jc525exc]

Good Info.& video. We've had ours for about 1 year. Happy with the way it works. We use it when needed in remote areas without good cell coverage. Lesson I learned was to make sure if going to remote location, activate the service before you become remote. You need to connect to their app via wifi or cell phone service to activate service. I had to leave campsite until I got cell coverage so I could activate my service (dummy me, but not again).

[@LeeH-Ranger83]

[@jpatrickmoore5158]

We have a park model RV in a resort that has no cell coverage. The resort changed to Starlink for internet. My only difficulty is that the connection drops periodically. Since I need to have reliable internet for business meetings, I have to simply not schedule meetings when I am at the resort. Once I retire and no longer have meetings, it won't be a problem.

[@deanconstantine4866]

Ok buy and extra cable . Run it thought the trailer use the tank lid as storage.

[@fry5family]

I'm pleased we are grandfathered in on the "portability" package where we can simply move around the country and not mess with anything. I see you plug your power in outside. Do you tuck your router into a bay? We've been bringing our antenna line in through a window and deftly sealing the small opening with painters tape, but the router is powerful and would probably do fine broadcasting from a bay in our motorhome.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

We have been operating our unit in a pretty sloppy fashion, leaving everything outside. This year I’m going to figure out a more optimal way to position the unit. I’d like to have a pole that we can attach to the tongue of our trailer. Our AC outlet is located on the entrance side of our trailer, so that is an issue unless we were to somehow route the cable through the trailer wall and/or window. I haven’t done a lot of research, but I am sure that some enterprising airstream owners have figured out an elegant solution. I will make a new video about the topic once we decide and execute a better strategy.

[@fry5family]

@@LongLongHoneymoon We have shared our wifi with a couple folks in campgrounds and I've walked with my Pandora linked to it at least 1/8 mile away so I know the router signal is powerful. I have a plug in my basement storage bay and a wire pass through hole in the bottom (for the antenna cable). I'm going to try it out down there. Thanks for your response!

[@TheKaffeeKlatsch]

I’ve been watching the satellite tracking app for a couple years and Starlink satellites up have increased exponentially.

[@mrpopo573]

The issue is they've outpaced the constellation expansion by overselling kits, namely to RVers like myself. 20 months ago when we first got Starlink the speeds were, no pun intended, astronomical. They are now, based on location, incredibly poor with high latency and monthly outages. Its a very promising tech that will have growing pains.

I just don't get why they make a "mobility" package run on 110v AC. I'll bet that is stepped down to 12v or less inside the unit. A "mobility" unit should be 12v DC to avoid inverter losses. Also, in one shot it looks like you leave the router outside. True? Is it weather proof? If not, how do you mange the cable to go inside the trailer?

[@cbdane]

I hope I didn’t miss this in the comments. Do you pass the signal through into the trailer? If not, is the modem weatherproof? Thanks for the great review!

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Unfortunately, it is by the month. Sorry, I should’ve clarified that in the video. It would be really ideal if you could pause it by the day.

[@thetinkercook5430]

Looking at the high performance, it says 110-150W avg. I'm assuming per hour. Do you leave your inverter on the entire time? How does that work, when you're boondocking? Pax tecum

[@davidtotten3042]

Our regular dish averages about 80 watts when active, much more if snow melt is turned on. The dish automatically turns on snow melt when it gets cold enough, so we turn it off in the app, unless we are somewhere that we have shore power. We use the router for area networking even when we aren’t using internet, so we put it in standby (in standby the router stays active but the dish doesn’t) . On standby power we draw about 25 watts. When we go to bed we shut down completely. As we use solar most of the time, we have to be careful with use times. It would be best for us to add 200 watts of solar and another 100 amp battery, and will probably do that next year.

[@danmurphy1742]

Watts is a measurement of power usage without regard for time. Watt/hours or Kw/hours are examples where time is considered. For example if the dish consumes 100 watts of power it would consume 100watt/hours if powered on for an hour or 1Kw/hour if on for 10 hours. In your house you pay for electricity by the Kw/hour. I just got a dish. I have a 1500 watt inverter in the RV. So it is much more than adequate if all I am powering is the dish. Regarding leaving the dish on or the inverter on but dish off it depends on your battery size assuming you are not plugged in at a camp site. For simple math calculations, if you have a 100% efficient inverter and the dish takes 100 watts, then that translates to 7.5 amp/hours (100watts/13.4 volts) from your lithium battery. If you have 100amp/hours of lithium battery then the battery would last for about 13 hours(100Ah/7.5ah). If you have lead acid then some number less than say 6 hours. My inverter takes less than 1 amp when in standby so add an amp to the above calculations.

[@samariagraham4502]

Are they considering a DC connection option?

[@dougberry1011]

If you bought it in the US will it work in Mexico and Canada when traveling?

[@pauldoran3990]

If you get the regional mobility plan (as opposed to Global) your Starlink account will work anywhere in continental North America. I'm currently traveling in Canada while my account is US based and I'm having no issues. If you use you dish outside of your home country for longer than two consecutive months Starlink may require you to move your service address to the country you are using it in. Note the word may I've heard from some users that this regulation is not always strictly enforced.

In the more remote camping areas I'm not as worried simply because most people are leaving their entire camping set up (grill, lounge chairs, fire pits, etc.) unattended and a starlink just sort of blends in with your other stuff. I think putting the starlink on one of the extension poles would help in the urban areas, or anywhere that you would be concerned with theft.

This is an interesting point of view. I'll never forget the first time we saw the Starlink "satellite train" crossing the sky. As an avid amateur astrophotographer, I can see why this would cause issues for my hobby. On the other hand, Starlink is about more than allowing Americans to play videogames and watch movies. It serves 53 countries around the world. For example, Starlink has allowed remote islands in the Philippines to have Internet access for the first time. This has been true in the Amazon rainforest as well. Starlink will be instrumental in providing Internet connectivity to many unserved populations around the world. This is going to improve the lives of tens (hundreds?) of millions of people around the world through better access to information, educational services, and device connectivity.

It depends on how you look at it. Something I should've mentioned is that there are no data caps to worry about. And being able to pause monthly billing if necessary at any time really drops the cost-per-month average.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

We went to great expense to hire these two models and film the “awkward FaceTime scene.” I work much like Stanley Kubrick and insist on at least 40 or 50 takes before moving on to the next element of the film. I feel that this take really captured what I was looking for.

At $150/ mo. I'll pass. I can afford it, but I don't see the value. My phone's hotspot is plenty good enough for my needs.

So your the 🤬camper on COD. Hey man thanks for the video. We are looking at this for our RV.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

haha i try not to camp on COD 😂

[@LoganSumrell]

Just have a hotspot now. How old are you to be playing COD?

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

It's often a highlight of my day, mainly because it gives me the opportunity to hang out with my longtime friends. But at our age, we need to use superior strategy to compete - our twitch hand/eye coordination isn't what it used to be!

Sean, if Brain Time is not you channel someone has stolen you voice and is using it for his own.

[@jerrydaminato743]

Just so you know, your audio intermittently is jumping up and down. I estimate it is changing ~3dB and is kind of annoying. It’s as though you are doing an overdub /comment at two different input audio levels. 🇨🇦

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Thanks, sorry about that. I go to great lengths to try and capture high quality audio (that's a Neumann mic!) and this may be an example of going too far. I usually normalize the audio and in this case I think some of the individual sections were overboosted. I will try to avoid this problem in the future.

[@jerrydaminato743]

@@LongLongHoneymoon I was reluctant to mention it but it has been in a few of your videos and thought you should know. Neumann are very high quality and so possibly it is in the normalization.

We’ve been full-timing for 6 months, 26 states down, can’t even count the # of RV stops- our Verizon 5G box has worked 95% of the time without ANY issues. AND….. ZERO set-up. 😊

[@bookooc5605]

What's your point? How much do you pay for how much data? So you've been everywhere and got coverage in your whole 6 months??

[@Pack.Leader]

How much does it cost and is it limited data? I hate when they throttle you down cause I like to stream video and movies. TIA.

Starlink? Absolutely the worst buying decision I have ever made.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Interesting. How so?

[@sgtwrench69]

What a mess you got with that Starlink... come on dude

It’s a metaphor for my life.

@@LongLongHoneymoon I kept the packaging material from the Box and put it in a plastic tote and packed it in there

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

I do have all of the original packaging material, but really I would like to figure out a more elegant solution to mount it to our rig. I may need to order some extra cables that I can use for a permanent installation.
