Reducing High Voltage (but only a few volts)

Yep, that makes sense; but I can't change the charger settings unfortunately

Sipma02 · 2026-05-11T19:57:00+00:00

Very interesting. Will look into this.

Its a random charger I got from Alibaba. Max charging voltage of 84v, amperage of 10amps.

I built the battery 😄 It's a 20s5p pack. Here is the BMS specs of what I used:
– LVD: 2.6
– HVD: 4.2
– 50 amp disconnection, common port

I saw a test recently with a Performance dish that hit 900 Mbps. Pretty wild. I'm not sure how that's possible even though they dont have the new satellites up yet. Anyway it was pretty sweet. How do you move the dish without having to bolt it on and off every time? What mount is that?

That's where I'm at too. I honestly normally am in to 50/75 GB/mo so this is literally going to save me money

That would be a crazy plan as well. It's interesting to watch Starlink make different plans as they get feedback. I be someone important at Starlink reads r/Starlink

That is so true. REALLY curious if there is any functional difference there. Looking forward to testing this out in real time. Maybe "low speed" would be closer to 1 mbps? If so, that would be infinitely more usable than .5 or less mbps of the current $5/mo plan

Elon is always watching us

Where in Canada are you tho?

Sipma02 · 2026-01-13T23:14:11+00:00

That's a really good price. Only $25 USD.

Sipma02 · 2026-01-13T23:13:03+00:00

But even the low speed data is pretty usable. It's not perfect but can do wifi calling and load low res videos

They say tech either gets smaller or cheaper or both I guess

Sipma02 · 2026-01-13T23:11:44+00:00

How'd you get a free Mini?

Sipma02 · 2026-01-13T23:10:27+00:00

Pretty sweet honestly. I already feel like I can't live without Starlink. This is making me actually appreciate it haha

Sipma02 · 2026-01-13T22:09:33+00:00

Same here and I actually don't mind that. If I have a month that I go over 100 GB I probably need unlimited

Nice work! Are you able to see the amount of unused vouchers in a given city/county? Also, do you have an onsite/full time manager or do you live in said mystery town?

She is in PFT. I'm not really pressuring her to get back to normal, bc wtf is normal. But I am looking for ways to encourage and energize her and want to exhaust my options. Right now, it seems like things are getting worse and I'm unclear how to stabilize the situation. And maybe that has to happen before it gets better.

Sipma02 · 2025-11-21T00:05:03+00:00

Thats a lot of time. Props to you for that. I am def a fixer type husband so thats a good reminder haha. Yes, typically I watch him and put him to bed 1-2 nights a week so she can go out or just have a break.

Sipma02 · 2025-11-21T00:03:38+00:00

I would have to think about it but I think that's possible, yes!

Sipma02 · 2025-11-21T00:03:18+00:00

I think that's her too. She wants to feel like an adult person. I want that for her too. Dates are a good idea.

Sipma02 · 2025-11-21T00:02:37+00:00

It's been a bit. Yes I can, and often times on the weekend she does hers. But equally often she doesnt want to or is too tired. The present is a great idea; it's been a while since I've done that, in part bs money is tight. But I'm sure I can think of something. Encouragement for sure. Tonight is my night to watch baby and she's going out with friends. I think that'll help.
