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
