Gen 3 Starlink 12v conversion. Is it worth it?

- #Starlink in the African bush. We are camping in the middle of nowhere, so I run a quick test to see if my #12V Starlink Gen 3 conversion saves any power as compared to running off an #inverter. While running the test, we are visited by a couple of giraffes and a herd of elephants with some tiny baby elephants.

You messed up. You always want the person that you're with to be slower than you when out in the wild with animals that may want to chase you down & eat you. 🐢 🐇
Thank you for the data, i appreciate it.
BTW, I noticed that the last elephant started moving towards you guys when you edited the scene. Did it come much closer? That tent wouldn't bring me much comfort out there lol. Is be awake for the entire safari.
Thanks for the video
😂 very true! I didn't think of that. No the elephant didn't get much closer and they were not nearby at night. Lots of lions around though. Thankfully wild animals seem to regard tents as solid objects.
Claims that new Andy is faster is just words. Make them have a race.
I commented this before I saw the trash you were watching on youtube hahaha
@@ridiculousthings4x4 😂
Botswana is so beautiful 🙌 looking forward to watch the new adventure👍 also a big welcome to Jordan
Thanks Smet!!
Oh I quite agree. You could take a few tips from Kasey, especially slo-mo :) Big welcome to Jordan. Loved seeing the family of elephants.
The fellas have really enjoyed this Starlink build of yours, Robert.
Glad you already follow Kasey 👍
Great video, thanks for sharing, all seems to work well, thanks for taking the time showing us this.
Thanks. It's a pleasure
Wow surprising result. Thank you for sharing
Pleasure Bruce
I enjoy your videos BTW 👍
@@MovingPicturesAfrica oh wow thank you so much. Really appreciate that.
Really, you custom crafted a starlink button for the dash? That's outstanding.
😁
Will there be a battle of Andys? I think we need to have a Andy comparison test. Man, I’d love to come film in Africa. I‘d take the heat!
Come visit. I'll show you around 👍
Awesome Rob. Real pleasant surprise on the power draw off the inverter. Contrary to what we often read. Oh well too bad as just received the star mount in SA.
Yeah. Your results may vary if you have a different inverter, but the savings do seem to be minimal
This is great in the bush with Starlink , solar power 👍🏽
Anybody knows where this campsite is? Chobe Nogatsaa maybe?
O melhor carro todo terreno de sempre... Toyota Perfeito.
there is some power loss from the inverter?
Yes, but there is also power loss from the boost converter. The difference does not seem to be significant.
Hi there FYI some countries in Africa starlink is being ban one of them is Zimbabwe i don't know the other one
Yeah. And they are stopping roaming in countries that don't have Starlink yet
Did you say that Camera Conspiracies was a nature channel? Hahha, I just went and was like, wait…..
😂 he does some great wildlife content. That guy loves slowmo nearly as much as I do.
@@MovingPicturesAfrica Hahaha, I was a slowmo addict but recently have brought it back down to Earth. It really hit me after a friend said something like, “I love your wildlife shots but your edits are really slow” and the next time I edited I couldn’t believe all these great shots that were too slow. 8K 120fps really does spoil you. So I now take it back down to 48fps/360 shutter or 60fps/180 when shooting most wildlife. At least my edits can be faster. :)
@@ScottBalkum absolutely. My default is 50fps for 25 playback, but for birds and fast action 120 8K or even 240 4K. Then if I only get half a second in focus, there's still 10s of usable footage 😋
@@MovingPicturesAfrica Heh, focus I can usually get unless the birds just fly in some strange direction then I’m done. My problem has always been anticipating the movement. I’m always off and miss much of the flights. ;). Practice is what I need a lot more of.
@@ScottBalkum yeah, I also don't practice enough. I should really pull out the long lens at least once a week to keep my eye in.
