I’ve just published my extensive testing results experimenting with the latest in LTTE booster technology on the RV Mobile Internet Resource Center.
LTTE Boosting?!?!
Not to be confused with cellular LTE boosting, LTTE boosting (Libation: Technology Tribulation Elimination) is an even more critical element of a technomad’s tech arsenal.
Because… Sometimes, no matter what you do, no matter how much tech you deploy, and no matter how much you spend – you will inevitably occasionally run into situations where you are just not able to get online.
Or worse – you’ll only be able to get online at a snail’s pace, for a moment or two at a time – until your frustration levels begin to boil over and you are hurling expensive smartphones through plate glass windows as you realize you’ve wasted all your daylight hours trying to get a single critical email to send.
When you find yourself in such a situation – an emergency LTTE booster can help.
If you’ve ever been in this situation, you will enjoy reading about our extensive testing of the latest LTTE boosters to hit our labs, the Bota Box v2 and the brand new Bota Brick.

A Toast!
Today (April 1st, 2015) is my 9th Nomadiversary.
To celebrate nine years living full-time on the road, I raise a toast to all of you out there struggling to stay connected, wherever you are.
Whatever it is you are drinking – be it bottled water or bubble tea, whiskey or wine, beer, rum, or even absinthe…
Here’s to great connectivity – online, and in person! See you out there!
Cheers!
Memory Lane:
Nine years on the road – wow!
Here are some links to my (mostly) annual April 1st Nomadiversary posts. Step back in time and check out some of our past adventures:
- Eighth Nomadiversary (2014) – Way too swamped and stressed with launching RVillage and dealing with Millenicom madness to write anything wistful or witty.
- Seventh Nomadiversary (2013) – At last revealing the real reason I first decided to hit the road…
- Sixth Nomadiversary (2012) — Reminiscing about all the changes over the years.
- Fifth Nomadiversary (2011) — Giving up nomadism and buying a condo (not!) in the Virgin Islands.
- Fourth Nomadiversary (2010) — Discovering the secret prize that comes inside every box of wine.
- Third Nomadiversary (2009) — Camped on a beach near Malibu, watching dolphins frolic.
- Second Nomadiversary (2008) — Working with Cherie to custom design our Oliver, moving up from a trailer ideal for one to one made for two.
- First Nomadiversary (2007) — Preparing to set out with Cherie, reminiscing about my first very eventful year on the road – setting off solo and finding an amazing partner along the way.
Gotta say Botta is my ladies favorite LTTE, too. Cheers
I myself am a great fan of Bota products. But when reading the bold print comment about the difficulties of getting online, an old SMS sending trick came to mind. You may test it with your critical email.
1/ type the SMS (email)
2/ hit the SEND button while simultaneously throwing the phone into the air – as high as possible (you may consider a slingshot as well)
3/ catch it and check the success status.
Be careful about the phase of your LTTE boosting you’re in. I found some correlation between
the amount of Bota product consumed and probability of a successful catch.
Cheers
You Guys are hilarious!!
I love the fact that the LTTE comes in 3 different sizes, to perfectly match the size of your head, be it large or small, to give you that ultimate LTTE performance… eh, comfort. Brilliant!
Great blog post! Love it!
Once again, another very helpful article. Reading about your adventures has been a treat and we appreciate all the hard work. Cheers!
Good one, Chris!
Ha ha! Happy Nomadiversary! Never thought of making a pillow out of those bladders….great idea!
