I'm pretty happy with the performance so far. Open sky on the highway, I can get ~100 Mbps. Facetime and audio are actually better over Starlink than strong 5G for some reason.
So, looking at options to power the unit. Needs about 60w max, so about 5amps. Could use the existing DTP’s, but has anyone thought about running wiring from one of the the existing INT switches (10amp) up to the roof. Would take a bit of work, but power should be sufficient and you would have a dedicated switch for the starlink, while keeping the rest of the pre-wired (25amp) outlets available for other stuff….

If you're making a longer run on power, definitely consider tossing a 12v->24v (or 36v or 48v) converter in the mix to drop amperage on the small wiring running to the dish
