I copied the drill flashlight method that has been posted here before.
Except I stuffed the guts of a UBNT air gateway into the light bulb
housing on the flashlight. That has 24V PoE out (UBNT polarity) and
wifi. We used a cable that crosses the power pairs for Canopy stuff. I
epoxied A tycon DC PoE adapter to the side of the flashlight for the
320, http://tyconpower.com/products/POE.htm.

It�s time for me to revisit the portable site-survey

Currently we have a small drill battery that fits spade plugs nicely
into it, with a wired POE jack (picture shows one using Canopy type
POE jack).
The goal is to make a more universal POE adapter scenario, that would
power a Canopy 100/450 series SM, a UBNT SM, or a Cambium 320SM .
The battery pack will also power a Mikrotik 951-2n and that part is
pretty easy
Looking to put the POE jacks (3) in a little project box, and use off
the shelf batteries�. 24v �ish� to power the Canopy and UBNT
(different jacks wired respectively with the proper polarity.
Obviously, on the 320SMs, I am planning a second 24v �ish� battery
run in series to produce 48v, with the proper pins 4,5,7,8 etc.
Ideally, it would be nice to have the batteries be pluggable,
un-pluggable to be charged without having to unwire anything, etc.
Anybody doing a 3-headed POE (or multi-personality) site-survey tool?
