(Note that I regularly wear a somewhat unusual Bluetooth headset and am also long testing a heavy duty Cruising Solutions alternative.) But I suspect that much of the performance enhancement came from the high performance antenna combined with 30 feet of thumb-thick Wilson/weBoost LMR400 ultra low loss coax cable that you can just make out stepping through a couple of adaptors into the Sleek (Dash) booster. In fact, I’ve used this cell setup a lot since last August - I had a fast 4G/LTE connection almost the entire trip south - and I often saw significant signal strength differences on that able Network Signal Pro app when I negated the booster by turning it off or pulling the phone out of the cradle. The screen at right suggest how much I used this mode while cruising south this fall yes, I put over 14 gigabytes of data - 12 of it via onboard WiFi - through the phone in just 20 days, though I would have been more careful if I hadn’t lucked into an unlimited Verizon 4G service plan. Constant charging is especially important when I’m using the phone as a WiFi hotspot to put the boat’s computers and tablets online.
The Sleek (and Dash) 4G cradles also have a USB outlet, so that curly wire above is keeping my old Galaxy Nexus phone charged while it’s being boosted. You just fasten the mount where you want the boosted phone to live, figure out the cradle “ear” shape and positions that best fit that phone model, and run the USB cable to a decent 12v USB power source (perhaps like these).
The Sleek (Dash) 4G is a cradle booster that only works with one fixed phone, but it couldn’t be much easier to install.
