Oh yeah.� Before I built the flashlight kit, I really considered
getting one of these Veracity VAD-PS things.

It provides 802.3af output, has an SLA battery inside, and has a 12v
accessory port.� The trouble was, I figured I'd end up using the
accessory port for almost everything I'd want to power, and also the
battery supposedly isn't replaceable (I assume you can always replace
the battery with a hacksaw).� The only good thing about it was it
looked a lot more pro compared to showing up with home made tools.�
It might not look so pro after I glue a wifi AP on the side of it, so
that isn't that great either.

Adam,

The link for the tyconpower product didn�t come through.� They
make a POE that takes 24v and outputs 48v?

Not seeing it on their website

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

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

Obviously, on the 320SMs, I am planning a second 24v

Anybody doing a 3-headed POE (or multi-personality)
