I’m about to pull the trigger on Starlink. You have some terrific content. This was a fun project.
Thank you👍🏻
you never cease to amaze me. It seems like the things you can do is practically unlimited. You have the such creative ability and I can so relate to doing things just to have fun. I really enjoy watching someone go out there and experiment whether it works or not. Of course, you always seem to make it work. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Awesome build!
Just a thought, since there is space available put "spacers" (like 1/4-20 nuts) under the inverter for airflow. AND since you have those "vents" on hand put one on the input fan to push the air to the floor of the box.
Again, awesome build. Thanks for sharing.
Good idea👍🏻
Brian,
After watching many of your build videos. I have a request. Always build (2) simultaneously of your camping builds that make the camp setup easier. I will purchase your 2nd build. Always give yourself a generous mark-up. Your ability's, blow my mind. Alway fantastic to see your creativity come to life. For some it is hard to find passion in their work, Not you. Amazing!
lol, I’ll see what I can do😂👍🏻
I absolutely love little purpose-built solutions like this, utilizing LFP batteries. They are even more cool when they use a 2nd-life battery option, which can sometimes allow you to "right-size" the solution even further. One example is battery cells installed in a 30-caliber ammo can and built to power a 12v dometic fridge. Simply grab the can and an adapter cable and you can power the fridge for 24 hours or longer, just like this will power that Starlink connection for days! :) Something to consider, if it concerns you at all, is you can use a cheap plastic cutting board instead of wood, for your substrate. If a fuse ever blows, for whatever reason, plastic melts instead of possibly catching fire.
👍🏻👍🏻
Really cool. Would love to see a more detailed version focusing on the wiring so i can build one. Unfortunatly im not well versed in the wiring aspect.
👍🏻👍🏻
I started following you with the camper build. As a colorblind son of a high voltage electrician, I love these DIY builds.
Thanks👍🏻
All I know about electricity is it May or may not Shock Me. So I will leave it to You Wiz bangs. Love watching you do stuff

Thanks Jake👍🏻
Brian that’s awesome really like you’re build videos I’m learning a lot at 61 🦅🇺🇸🦅
Thanks!
Nice build and good power solution. I’ll guess the total weight is very manageable.
Yeah, not too heavy at all. Maybe 30lbs all in
Love watching your builds. I have a Rigid box with a Redodo mini in it as well. But I have the Renogy 50a charger in it with a 12v fuse panel. Then into another Rigid Box with a Renogy 2000w inverter connected by Anderson plugs. All hooked to my truck so while the truck is running it is charging. Have my Iceco fridge hooked to it all times. But looking to get a solar panel installed on top of my shell for when its parked. So watching your videos helps me get idea on installation and how much is needed. Thanks for all the creative ideas.
Thanks👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome DIY! Thanks for showing your work to us.
👍🏻👍🏻
WOW that is so cool, great build. Your Starlink looks different. Can’t wait to see it up on your pole you bought.
Thanks! It’s the new “gen3” model they are now selling
Amazing!
You make it look so easy
Thanks!
Cool project 👍. I installed one of those Journeyman brand Outdoor Shore Power Outlet pigtail receptacles in the exterior bulkhead of my Hiker Trailer. Works like a champ, and it's an inexpensive purchase.
👍🏻👍🏻
Nice build Brian. 👌
Thanks bud👍🏻
Would love your thoughts on a countertop ice maker for battery supply camping.. love my bourbon with ice!
We use a cheap $90 ice maker we got off Amazon and love it. It’s 120v, but you can still plug it into a power station
Very very cool, knowledge is power, literally 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
🍻🍻
I really enjoy your DIY builds like this. I have been thinking of building something similar. Safe to say I'll be using your video as a guide. Really like your tool box idea.
Thanks👍🏻👍🏻
Heyy Brian great project, nice setup glad everything worked well,thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks👍🏻
That’s a good idea 😊
👍🏻👍🏻
Nice little build. On a clear day, your 100 watt panel could power the Starlink most of the day and never really use the battery. That’s very promising
👍🏻👍🏻
Hello Brian hope all is well. Great video and I would like to say that you are very creative. I have one question; how much does that starlink cost per month, any equipment charges and what's the waiting time frame to receive the unit? Thanks and take care partner 🤠. Any plans of a starlink give away and if yes then I would like to be the first one the list 😅. Mama would be very happy. Remember a happy mama is a happy marriage 😂
lol, no giveaways on a Starlink, sorry. But, there are no equipment costs after the initial purchase of the dish and WiFi router. Monthly fees are pretty expensive at either $130 or $150 a month, but you can pause your service and not pay until you decide you need to use it again. It took me about 5 days to get my equipment after I ordered.
👍👍
👍🏻
Hi Brian, we want to copy this build, but a quick question, what solar panel's will you be running with it? thanks for confirming :-)
Just a small 100 watt portable solar panel.
@@BrianWatersOutdoors Thanks so much :-) xx
We this setup how long the starlink will run ?
Approx 10-12 hours
@@BrianWatersOutdoors Thanks :)
Presumo que un ventilador mete el aire y el otro lo saca, porque si la tapa está cerrada no podrá circular el aire.
Yes, one I take and one outtake fan
I would really love to see how warm the box and internals get without the ventilation, my particular use case for this exact setup will be COMPLETLY consumed by ants, bugs, and spiders and all sorts of gods crawly creatures if its not completely sealed up tight??
couldn't you just convert the Dishy to 12v and hook it to the battery directly without all the other stuff?
Video is spoiled due to that horrible music
Thanks👍🏻👍🏻
you can get smaller battery chargers that will fit inside the box
👍🏻👍🏻
with the batteries being discontinued, is the warranty discontinued also
I doubt it, but I do t know that for sure.
Please don't worry. The warranty will still continue and still be 5-year.
