Worth the upgrade
Why it's on my list
The kit for when the internet has to just stay on: at the cabin, in the truck, at a basecamp, through a multi-day outage. A 576 Wh battery in an IP65 hard case with the dish mount built in, so the DC cable and the mounting are already solved. Code BUCKHORN takes $100 off.

What it is
A rugged battery case made for the Starlink Mini: up to 24 hours of dish time on a charge, recharges from AC, a car or the optional 160 W panel, USB and PD ports for your other devices, built for weather and rough handling. Starlink Mini not included. The Plus adds a Pelican 1450 case, Ethernet passthrough and airline compliance. My Starlink-in-a-box page is built on it.
