Following up on this topic, I've received a couple suggestions for dealing with this on existing equipment.
From Mikrotik Support: You should do the following, cut positive wire from the battery and add diode like this http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail&name=STPS8H100FP-ND (reverse voltage at least 40V, forward current at least 2A, forward voltage drop 0.6-0.7V) or similar diode. It should help to improve current behavior. Regards, Sergejs ---- From a forum member: (To shut off over-voltage protection (at your own risk) ) "Nearly from power Jack you can find SO8 package with 9576 label. Solder tiny wire between 1 and 8 pin. ( First pin marked with dot )" On my RB411, this "SO8 package" is labled Q801 on the board. -- Randy Cosby Vice President InfoWest, Inc 435-674-0165 x 2010 http://www.infowest.com/ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
