RV - Office + Tech

We met a couple in Thermopolis, Wyoming. I was telling them that I don’t consider what we do camping. We have high-speed internet and we enjoy our coffee each morning cozy in our recliners in front of our (electric) fireplace. They said - right, you’re travelers. Also, I need that high-speed internet since work remote. Here are some of the things that make it all possible.

Office

Starlink

Michelle works remote. We have loved Starlink for a few years now, and believe me, we’ve tested it in some remote areas. Click on the Starlink sticker. If you sign up using this link, you get a free month and so do we!

We have 2 Starlinks - a Gen 2 in the RV and a Mini in the truck. I realized we’re so often out of cell phone areas (any provider) that it would be nice to have a Starlink in the truck, so when the Starlink Mini went on sale, I caved. We did lower our cellphone plan because of it. So far, so good!

Sturdy Monitor

This monitor is beautiful. I can have it landscape or portrait. The stand is SOLID. Also, it’s got a USB port, so I can plug everything into the monitor and just have one cable from the monitor to my laptop and all of my components work (keyboard, mouse, printer).

Desk Lamp

I most often work by the light coming in from the windows, but when I’m in a video meeting, I like to ensure good lighting. If it’s an odd time of day or if I’m working when it’s dark (like 5 PM in winter), this works perfectly. It has two light color options, dims, and has a flexible long arm.

Kneeling Chair

I realized a long time ago that I don’t lean back in my chair when working. This chair encourages good posture and it’s very comfortable for me.

Starlink Accessories

These clamps are what hold the Starlink pole onto our slide. We have a Starlink Gen 2 on the RV and a Starlink Mini in the truck.

This suction cup mount is what we use to keep our Starlink Mini in the sunroof in the truck.

This Starlink Mini cable has three plug options - car, USB-C, and the Starlink Mini wall plug. It just makes sense to have this!

Insta360

This camera is so much fun. We have the Insta360 X3. We’re not aspiring YouTubers, and I think we may always be learning this (always evolving) software. We’ll keep trying, though. The ability to see every angle is still fascinating and we’ve had this camera for years.

Our original selfie stick may be a little dented. This one is cool, though, since it has it’s own feet. The Insta360 cameras remove the selfie sticks from video - so cool!
