Call me Stupid... but what is the point of this discussion ? Operating the Radios @ 27V is exceeding the Mfg. Specs. ..... Will they work ? maybe... Will they fail ? maybe.... If you burn them up..... you are on your own.. ? or at least at UBNT's discretion, since you are voiding the warranty, by operating our of Specs. Will it shorten the life of the Radio ? maybe... Will is just work fine ? maybe.....
This reminds me of the discussions on the CPU Over-Clockers Forum...... If you want to play, sure nothing wrong with that.. but you are on your own .. If you expect it to preform well for a long time, then it is best to stay within the Mfg. Specs ... I have often said this to folks.... In our industry, when you exceed Specs.... things don't just 'break'.... but they do start doing 'funky stuff'.... Of Course YMMV :) Faisal Imtiaz Snappy Internet & Telecom On 10/18/2012 10:06 AM, Justin Wilson wrote: > We see 27.3 volts at the battery.
