 Good morning everybody. Look who I got with me today. It is steampunk Steve. I don't know why he keeps coming by. I love this guy It's a bromance. It's true. I'm happy he's here because today. I'm gonna install a Signal booster that we boost sent me. It is a we boost drive 4g x. This one is kind of the trucker model You know, I figure my bus is more of a truck than it is a motorhome Even though it is livable, but you know just kind of like more badass and stuff Steve and I are Determining a good location for the we boost on the driver side I just happen to think that more trees would be on a passenger side So we're actually using a different mount than what came with this so step one Put this Through these extensions. So this is one of the extension pieces you run the wire through it And then you put a little bit of this blue thread lock which comes with it Part of step one is determining how many Extensions you're gonna have and I'm gonna take a wild guess and say I should probably get a second extension I wish there was a medium-sized all right. So guys what you should know is that There is a side exit for the wire and then there's a spring So that's gonna add something like six to eight inches. So right now. He's holding it in a position where it would possibly be and I'm thinking that's better than having an extra foot up It's above the top of the bus true. So it's gonna get it'll get signal from all the way around Absolutely great You don't need it to be up any higher because you're not trying to peer over a mountain You're just trying to peer over the bus. This is what it actually tells you in the instructions here We got 17 inches with the unit itself and this is what I was talking about in tennis spring That's an optional thing So we're gonna use that because that's an extra like three and a half inches We have it set to 32 inches 32 and 45. That's a pretty big Gap and then here is how it should You know come together long story short The instructions are amazing something that's not super obvious in this kit is that these are optional parts I thought you had to use both or could use both and I think you can use both The spring is meant so that the cable goes down through it. Okay This is meant to have the cable come out the side Just like that is shown right there. I personally think the spring is a better idea just in case I hit something on the road But we were thinking to double them up for a little extra height and I don't think we're gonna do that. Okay. What I did next is I attached the spring With the wire coming out and I fed it through the hole in the mount. I decided to talk this out Because you need to figure out when you're doing this how you're gonna install it as well So maybe this will help so we did steps one two and three Step four is mount the antenna inside antenna Either on the side of the seat with some velcro Like that I'm not really sure keep in mind these are instructions for use in a semi. Yes. Yeah, which smaller cabin than what you've got So you've got multiple possibilities here, right or vehicle dash I like the vehicle dash idea because I could mount it like this or it could mount it right here and Maybe that would help with the amp amplification of the boost So I'm thinking either one of these two spots the next step I'm getting down under the dash because Steve is gonna feed me the The wire for the Inside antenna perfect now I got it because we're gonna mount the Drive unit right here next step. I deviated from their instructions a little bit. I'm deciding to use a little Self-double-sided sticky tape. I'm just gonna put this up here and hope for the best Let's see. I know it's a little Tricky spot there all right that almost grabbed itself to the To the metal there. That's how strong the adhesive is here's the next step I know it is bright outside And so the lights a little hard to see but here's the unit Mounted with the velcro And all that fun stuff. I don't know why just I mean in case you need to take it off. I suppose So yeah, we just have it ran down there. We'll tie up some wires The next step is to run in the exterior cable Through the dash which is always fun So the next step is to feed the wires through your dash or vehicle. See I got it right there It went through Sometimes you have to take off little interior panels part of the dash But it's pretty easy Now what's nice? You're gonna only have to pull as enough wire to get to that and then leave the rest of the access wire coiled up Underneath the where the we've accessed through yeah, all right next step You put on this silver and brass male-to-male connector and then you just plug it right into the unit and screw it in Let me just run through the next step that we did Is uh We ran the power Through the dash We could we cut off the cord there Well, this isn't in the instructions, but we are wiring in hardwiring the power and You guys will be proud of me because I did all the work here I have Steve as my witness so anyway We've got hardware it in and the last thing to do is Just to plug this out that sparked me plug this thing in Is that a good sign? Is it well means you got power? It sparked me so touch your tongue No, we don't want to do that the last part is to get it in the hole There we go the unit's on and So I had two bars LTE wow look at that you can already see that another bar it went up by a bar here and Yeah, so we're we're cooking here and mine yeah, let's see what yours does mine was three bars of 3g still is but it was the 1x it just went up to four bars Yep, so we're you know the 1x shot up to five Yeah, yeah, so as you can see guys it does boost it. Whoa, I just got four bars So it might take a little second to kick in but it doubled my bars I have full full bars check your phone again because it may have boosted it, too Four bars 3g at this point, but yeah, but it's also we have totally different phones Steve's has a some I don't even know what those things are some antique It's called a flip phone and it's only two years old you can still buy these It's not a brick. It's a little test again, this depends on the proximity to a Tower depends on your device depends on many factors, but I just ran a speed test with the device on as you can see I will unplug it and we'll do the same test I can get that thing out of here Hard to reach there we go. All right, let's test again and as you guys saw before it was 30 and 16 Let's keep it about the same height In the bus here. All right, so we are at 22 and the upload is Significantly less Significantly, I mean Wow, look at that. So like I said The signal booster does work But it does depend on a lot of factors and we boost Here we are. We're back down to two to two to three bars depending on where I'm positioned in the bus We boosts Montra just so you guys know is that I can find it was basically saying that It is not oh here it is Right here Signal bars can be inaccurate signal boost is best measured in how much better you can communicate than before So like I just showed you here on the speed test Significant boost But depends on many real-world things. So I want to think steampunk Steve for stopping by give me a hand One last time. I think it was more moral support because you know the buses Take a bit longer than I thought He promised me a week a week. He said it'd be done I just want to think we boost for generously sending me a unit full disclosure They provided this unit. I had previously used a we boost Product before and I absolutely love it. I give it to my buddy Dean the school II It works. Well, this is the one of the top of the line kits and And it does work better than the previous Device where I had to actually sit my unit in it This is is broadcasting the signal. It's repeating it and broadcasting it in here so you just have to be close to it and Can handle multiple units at a time. So check them out. We boost highly recommend Yeah, all kidding aside. I'm really impressed with how easy this was to install and on my little Classic flip-flop flip phone this boosted it instantly for me. I'm really impressed with this unit. Cool. All right guys the special video as you know and Check out the next video coming because we're actually gonna make a new video right now You
