HiBoost USA (a division of Asian manufacturer Huaptec) released a new mobile 4G/LTE cellular booster in November 2019 which is replacing the venerable Travel 4G LTE Booster that was originally released in late 2016.
The new booster is called the Travel 4G 2.0 - and an RV Kit is listed on their site as coming soon.
The main new feature of the Travel 4G 2.0 is a Wi-Fi and BlueTooth module to allow monitoring via a mobile app. Initially the app just gives signal condition readings in real time.

Review & Testing Status
At present time, we do not intend to obtain a review unit as we just wrapped up extensive booster testing and it doesn't seem this new release offers any increase in performance over the HiBoost Travel 4G LTE Kit we have already reviewed.
Because we feel the technical specifications are similar enough, we are 'Featuring' this booster based on our review of the first version. It was a solid performer, but only with their RV OTR Antenna.
We may revisit testing this new version in the future should there be updates to the app to allow adjustments and/or an RV kit is released.
