I use this one:
It's made for smaller areas(like inside a camper) and I know from experience it works!

I have this white one that I purchased on Amazon. Designed to run on 12v, so I have it wired directly to my BlueSea fuse block.
It functions, and it lets you know, quite loudly, when the air is 'dirty'. It is on 100% of the time.
Starlink Install by Michael Rickerd, on FlickrThanks.
My build is taking awhile, donor was from a Tacoma so bought a fit kit for the Gladiator and prepped all for the install sealing everything with 3M rope seal and Sikaflex 221.
Added a full Redvision panel from GP factor, got the RedArc components to mount into it , 400w RedArc solar panels and a 3kw RedArc inverter. 1 230ah LiTime battery. Found a 115v plug panel that I put in a Goose Gear side panel. I also added 3ea Amber lights to the camper for night usage. 813 camera relocation panel and a couple of billet handles as needed something to hold onto opening and closing the top..
I'm using the new Whale propane heater its variable heat/cfm so should be very efficient. rated to work to about 10k'. It has a thermostat that has a frost mode setting of 41* and a night time mode of 61*. The heating output will range from 4500-9400BTU max cfm is 88. Propane usage @9400btu is 7oz a hour.
Working on the water system, have my pump mounted, a Shurflo 12 Volt RV Water Pump 3.0 GPM, braided clear 1/2" ID hose, stainless ball valves and a Camco 6 stage water filter. Waiting on a couple more SS fittings and a Quick fist to mount the filter.
Once thats done I need to find a hose to quick connect propane bulkhead mount. Then I'll cut up the Toyota Goose gear bed plate to make 2 new tops and 2 doors for the cabinets. All my cabinets were from the donor Tacoma so remade all to fit.
Also doing Cugs idea for rail mounts for the back door. Need to mount a shovel, Hijack and my Trasharoo if all fits.
Starlink will be taken from my MH when needed, haven't looked at a bulkhead fitting yet for the cable. Thinking about the Starlink mount like others have done mounted to the roof rails.
Its quickly becoming a land yacht..keep pouring $ into it but almost done.

I am trying to figure out how to install the Drifta Stockton stick on flexible LED light strip kit on my awning. Has anyone here installed these or the Hardkorr kit (I think they are the same). I am having a hard time figuring out how/where to penetrate the canopy camper wall.

Ahh gotcha, I was trying to look at how yours was routed. So do you have the line routed along the bottom of bed by door opening?
