You almost always need to be connected to the internet for any job these days. If you’re working from your car, sometimes you can rely on your employer to provide internet access. Many industries, including trucking, utilities, and police, use broadband through their computers for guaranteed connection while on the road. Panasonic Toughbooks, for instance, offer Verizon 3G or 4G Broadband through their laptops.
For those who need to provide their own connection, you can typically tether it to your phone much cheaper than a laptop. Get a good phone plan that has great coverage and allows you to hotspot whenever you need to.
You don’t want to have to charge all your devices overnight before working from your car or truck each day. While that is one option to maintain battery life on the road, it’s better to get an inverter, so you can work in your vehicle whether your batteries are charged up or not. An inverter connects to your car battery and allows you to plug into however many AC outlets and USB ports are provided on the unit.
Cell phone mounts have surged in popularity since device-free driving became mandatory, but there are mounts out there for everything from your tablet to your laptop that make working from your car easier than ever. Look into getting versatile automobile laptop stands and tablet mounts that allow you to work from either front seat while still being able to remove and insert devices quickly when you need to get out of the car and into the field.
Device mounts for vehicles have come a long way. These days, you can find mounts that have tons of adjustability for ease of use when working on the road. Some of the most advanced accessories have features like ball and socket joints for more viewing angles, swing arms for automobile laptop stands to make working from any seat easy, extra protective cases that prevent scratching and chipping, and even universal drill-down mounts that reduce vibrations and movement that could damage your device.
Once you have the right devices and accessories to make working from your car comfortable and convenient, it’s time to consider how the features of your car can enhance your working situation. Do you have a great sound system with Bluetooth functionality? Connect to it for meetings and calls. Does your car have a USB charger? It can also be used to charge any peripheral devices you need instead of relying on an inverter or to integrate your phone with the stereo to ensure your data is accessible at all times.
