The budget option would be to connect a Mini 5G into the WAN port of a B One 5G and fuse them. Managing them would be more tedious, and it wouldn’t be as power or space efficient, but it’s a dual 5G modem setup for $1100 instead of $2900. We don’t need to run docker containers or have it turn on with the engine (unless we’re scouting a new area engine is always off when we’re using it). Being capped at 400mbps is perfectly fine, we’re unlikely to get above that in the field.
The comparison table doesn’t show a ton of meaningful differences for many sort of “prosumer” folk to justify the cost of the BR2:
I (and I’m sure a lot of other people) would pay a couple hundred more to just have to manage one device.
