Starlink mini mount

I consider that and could do that with the Bluetti. I'm not worried about the conversion loss; I need all-day power while driving (10+ hours) without any power loss to the antenna either from a dead USB power bank or momentary power loss. This clunky solution
Haven't experienced any power drop in 10+ hour drives Starlink(via usbc)->River3->120v plug. Starlink stays on battery and battery gets topped by the 120v. Usbc is about 5% more efficient in battery use vs using the default starlink power adapter on the River3 when in camp/parked.
 
I had to do some trickery to make it work. If you watch the video you'll see me tilt the glass before sliding the shade open, "shade won't slide without tilting first". There is a little pressure from the mini on the shade when everything is closed. Without the mini everything fits nicely.

I leave the mount there permanently and only mount the Starlink when using, this unfortunately eliminates the ability to slide the glass open.
Apologies, I missed your video. I think this is worth 50 bucks for a replacement for me, because I use mine every week (I also like to work out in the backcountry) and really wish I could close the shade when I’m sitting there working. Thank you!
 
I previously used a magnetic base which was great but have now moved mine onto a roof rack mount. Runs off the same BLUETTI 600 which will power it for a day at least without a charge. I have the BLUETTI hooked up now that it’s pass through via the 12 volt and charging whenever the Ignition is turned on as well as going to the 2400 watt inverter which will
Charge it from dead in an hour. Nonissue on my last road trip with a couple boxed stored on top next to it when traveling.
