Earn More Helium With Outdoor Antenna Install | Simple Process To Help You Get More HNT (Easy Money) 

Good video dude! It couldn't be clearer of all the RU-vid videos, this is the only one that clearly explains the installation. Thank you!

I know this is 2 years late. But I like using the emt metal conduit. It will fit inside your mount bracket and give you an extra 10’ in height.

Hey Caesar, I'd like to thank you very much for this detailed video, appreciate your time filming it! Great tutorial and explanation ;) thumbs up!

Thank you for the video , haven't received my unit yet but this cleared up a lot of questions !

I had a rak miner fry last year. It was hooked up to a rooftop antenna. I didn't do my research and realize the antenna should be grounded. I think that these lightning arrestors help protect the helium miner from built up static electricity in the antenna as well.

Great job Caesar! My only critique is on that lightning arrestor you crimped the plastic part. You're supposed to crimp the metal part between that and the screw. This can be done by unscrewing that connector so that you can get your tool around it and then screw it back in and face it downward. I've been cabling for 30 years, which includes RF, Network, fiber optics and any other low voltage cable you can think of. The company I work for builds 5G for every major carrier.

Good shit!! Thank you 👍

Very useful content guys. Keep em coming!👍

Sir, mad respect. I’m new to Helium mining and I’m about to set up my first miner in a area with a lot of trees. I think your video will be extremely valuable to me. I love that you explain what you did wrong the first time super helpful thank you sir.

Great video, earned a subscription.

08:09 "This is the right way according to me" Love it! 😀

Another good idea is to, install a small male to male jumper. A couple of feet long for example. From the bottom of the antenna (male.) To the lighting arrester (male.) Then run your wire from the arrester, into your miner

Appreciate you bro!

Holy smokes yes !!!! Watch a video on how to crimp a wire… You need a wire crimping tool.. take the screw loose take your tool and crimp the round metal piece in front of where you crimped the plastic cause what you did has done absolutely nothing to bond your wire…the tool you has was a wire stipper go get you a new eye piece if that one’s ruined and crimp that wire inside the round metal piece..like I said you can watch a video on how to crimp on wires…I hope this helps and you learn something new from all of us it’s what we’re all here for to help each other

So many Great tips!

Doing some research myself on this, seems like its good idea to ground the mast as well and bond that ground wire to the lighting arrester ground wire.

I'm not an electrician but you'd likely need a way bigger gauge (like 2AWG or 0AWG) ground wire to carry the surge to ground vs that small wire. If you think of the size of the ground wire for your panel in the house its way larger. Just a thought if you are going to go through the trouble of installing one.

Yes!! what ever you can do to save $$$,I cut the cord to no more cable!!!

Nice video bro, thanks

Thanks for the video I appreciate your selfless advice. Positive criticism I would advise against using electrical or any standard types what you want to use his heater in wraps what are use as an aerial and satellite installer is self amalgamating tape which is a self adhesive stretchy rubber waterproofing tape. Standard electrical tape there’s nothing more than Trump moisture an axe as a funnel. Keep up the good work Thanks, Geoff

Where did you get the antenna mount that holds it to the pole? I've been looking for one and I can only find them in bundles with antennas, but I already have antennas. I use a flag pole so the pole is pretty wide...

cam some answer my questions please: 1) If my city do not have any HNT device and I setup one, will I earn? 2) How much internet data it needed to operate? 3) If I need to install more than one devices then how many and at what minimum distance?

Fire 🔥

Hi which side is perfect????

Good

Bro maybe you know which cable I need for milesight ug65 miner?

Why does everyone keep calling these lighting arresters, they are NOT. these are nothing more than atmospheric static discharge lines. These just keep simple static in the air or from wind from zapping your minor. If the antenna was actually struck by lighting the minor and just about everything downstream would be fried. A 10ga copper line is not a lighting arrester. Lighting rod grounding wires are around a 2ga to 0ga.

Great video. Thanks for taking the time to make it. Why not use a pole extender to get your antenna even higher up? Also, could you put miner in attic? Perhaps lessen your cable length / signal drop by having miner closer to antenna. Or is the router closer to garage?

19:05 Hello, in the botcaminer It comes already configured by default with the 4.0dbi antenna. Once the antenna is connected 5.8 dbi in the botcaminer, do we have to configure it in the helium application again? Could you help me please

Hey Cesar, great video buddy. Thank you! What a coincidence, today I had a pro install my 8 dBi Rak antenna on my roof, he did a great job. I drilled a hole on the side of the house and into the attic and the 2nd floor ceiling of my closet and installed the Bobcat miner on the top drawer of the closet (about 15 feet of LMR 400. Perfect! I have a couple of questions; 1) I understand we have to go to a Helium website to update the new antenna and the height, do you know where? 2) How soon will the Helium system give back information of new Helium rewards? Thanks a lot sir!

Great video. Have a question about the lightening arrestor. I installed mine close to the miner to protect miner from static charge build up from the cable. Is this good or not?

Hi Caesar, I’m a new subscriber. I am currently syncing a new bobcat at my sister in law’s house. She has a one story but I would love to install a rak 8 dBi antenna on her roof. At the moment it’s connected to Ethernet but when I install the antenna does it need to be connected to Ethernet to do well in earnings? Only reason I ask is because her router is in the guest room and I’m not sure she wants me to drill a hole through her wall to feed the LMR through. Would def appreciate your input!

What miner are you using

Loosen the screw... rotate the crimp connector instead of bending the cable... also crimped the wrong part.. supposed to crimp smaller section, also stripped away too much insulation, that will turn green and turn into a bad ground quickly

hello i am receiving my bobcat miner soon and i want to prepare for much reward as possible. i live near USC and they are flat land area. im going to put the antenna outside on top of the roof. its 25~30ft above the ground. i am also going to mount 40inch antenna pole on top of that. i was wondering what would be the best set up and if 5.8-6 dbi antenna will be the best? i see that on hotspotty map. LA area has terrible/poor transmit scale.. wanted to know if theres a way to fix that and turn it into green scale

Hey Caesar! Where did you get your black mount that the antenna is mounted to

Hey ceasar. Been watching your videos over and over. Running into issues. Perfectly fine rak miner for 2 months. Port forward open. Bought new antenna and cables and lightning arrestor. After mounting antenna and plugging everything back - like your videos, my inbound and outbound has no connection. Port shows closed on portchecker. Router advance settings still has port forward to 44158. Ive tested ethernet cable with laptop - laptop works and runs fine.. Disk in diagnostic reads ok. NAT type unknown... Ive rebooted both router and unplugged miner multiple times now in between everything. From what I read I think it's got no internet going to the system? Or is this due to bad 400lmr coaxial and 5.8dbi antenna?

can you provide a link for that specific lighting arrestor

What is the antenna model and cable configuration connecting the antenna to the hotspot? Where did you buy it? Do you have the link?

Quick question not sure if u mentioned it in the video but did you connect the bobcat to the wifi or Ethernet?

Great stuff Very informative…What is your miner name ? The one connected to the antenna in this video

Can you please tell me how will you get the HNT once after the installation is done? I mean how do we get HNT coins into our Metamask or any of our crypto wallet ? Also how do we ensure our daily earnings are mined and received into our wallet

That’s not how to terminate a cable into the ring terminal. The red part should grab the insulation and your conductor is far too long. Best to use pliers to crimp it if you don’t have the correct crimp tool. Thanks for sharing though.

Hey great video. How did the 6 dbi workout?

Please supply links to Amazon I can’t find them,thanks.

So which antenna was better 8 or 6 dBi?

Why didn't you just buy the P-100?

How does the antenna perform in heat I live in Florida

You don't have any links for the material you used in your video

Why would you think a 6dbi would be better than an 8dbi?

Hwy did you go from 8 to 6 dbi? you never mentioned it

why did you guys switch from 8 to 6 db

id rather avoid that much of a lmr cable by using ethernet cable and mounting the bobcat on a outdoor enclousre

PLEASE do not run your ground wire to a copper pipe in your house. Run it to a proper ground connection. PLEASE use a proper crimp tool to crimp your ground wire to the lug. DO NOT do it like Caesar did. You should be able to pull on the ground wire and it will not pull out because it is mechanically crimped in place. (not just on the plastic) Do NOT run your ground wire parallel to your coax cable. Your lightning arrestor is designed to give the electricity a place to go other than your cable. If your cable is zip tied to your ground wire, the current flow in your ground wire due to the lightning strike will induce a very similar LARGE current in your cable, nullifying what you're trying to do. You should add drip loops before you go into your house to keep water from running down the cable and into your house.

No offense, but why would you ever downgrade?

is it "Legit"?
