STARLINK ⭐️ - “should I stay or should I go”…. 🎵🎸 - plus mounting & wired vs wireless powering options

According to the review I attached earlier, the batteries in the V2 and V3 are identical. What they are claiming is that the V3 batteries are cherry picked (top 1%) from the rest. This may be a case of creative marketing... They are running a sale today so you can pick the V3 up for the same regular price of the V2.
LOL, cherry-picked batteries, what a joke.
 
I agree Bluegill - it sounds like malarky - more likely if they are getting an extra 30 min it’s due to new software / battery management system.

Awaiting 1sjshrk’s review. 👍🏽

Would be nice if the attachment hardware is theft deterrent. As I’m sure some fool may attempt to remove it.

The STS mount does have a lock. I’ll let you know when it shows up. 🤞
 
This is the magnetic mount I used:
Magnetic mount
The mount is simple and sturdy. I have two. I removed the magnets from the first and bolted it directly to the roof rack on my 200 Series Land Cruiser. Swapped three thumb screws for 10mm bolts which are used to remove the Mini from the bracket. The magnets are strong and "rubberized". The 4 removed magnets are very useful for other things. The second mount, using the magnets is on the GX.

Rhetorically speaking, I'm not too worried about theft for many reasons. For one, I'm not sure a thief you could use it given the serial number and registration process. Plus, much easier to pick one up off the ground at a campsite or RV park these days. Finally I assume they are all going to be obsolete in a few years when your "phone" directly connects to the satellites.
