Finally, a DIY Starlink Flat Mount Adaptor, Powered by 12 Volts DC! Easily 3D printed for $15 which allows us instant internet when we arrive at our daily destinations.

In an effort to have our dishy permanently mounted for quick internet when we stop and instant pack up and go, I designed this 3D printed base to flat mount the Dishy McFlatface with minimally invasive surgery.

Then we cut the cord from the toaster and inject our own DC power eliminating the need for Grid or Inverter Power losses - Now only 28 watts - Half the consumption as Stock.
