+1 on the digital multimeter with sound for test wiring and trouble shooting electrical problems. Use mine all the time.

OP if you get the red one pictured (i have one) just get 4 heavy duty casters and make a rolling wood base to set it on. I used two 8 foot 2x4's i had laying around cut to length and two 2X8 pieces for the width then use carriage bolts to bolt through the 2x4's, 2x8's and the heavy duty...

GTfiero, the NanoStation loco M5 comes with a PoE injector as part of the kit. Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

New fused link came in today and installed them. The furnace now makes much better heat. Very happy with the way it turned out.

GTFiero, I was lucky enough to pick up my wifi form the house with only one Nanostation M5 Loco at the workshop 200 Ft away. The PoE is provided as part of the NanoStation via a PoE injector. You just plug it in in between the Access Point and the Nanostation at the location of the NanoStation...

I only have the one NanoStation along with the TP Link router configured as an access point down at the workshop which is 200 ft away. So I’m not using a “sending” antenna. I’m getting the same speed in the workshop as I am in the house. Very happy with the set up and only cost ~$60 as I...

GTFiero, Here are pics of the outside installation of the Nanostation they are rated for outdoor use. I am going to pick up some heavy duty outside rated tie straps or just anchor it with a small block of wood to the downspout. I guess if a guy had a vacuum sealer you could seal it in plastic...

If you referencing where i have heating tape those seams are screwed together before the tape went on. For the plywood back i have pre-drilled and bought self tapping screws to attach.

Ha further troubleshooting on why not enough heat has identified a bad fuse link. Had to pull the heater elements out to make sure but have a couple of new ones on the way. Learning a bit as i go but that the fun part right?

String or loose lumber for a tape measure. LOL more than i would like to admit

Yeah I love trying to figure out something that isn't supposed to work. LOL I probably waste a lot time trying to make **** work that never will but when you get a win it feels great!

AS long as you workshop is running on the same panel these might work. I tried an earlier version of these from TP Link in the house before i bought the Amply HD Mesh solution. but they did not work very well

Actually have a 65 inch Samsung smart tv with a Prime Fire stick in the workshop so I can watch football or Listen to Amazon Music (Samsung won't let you download Amazon Prime or Music thus the Firestick). Did find out that Samsung only connects to the 2Ghz WiFi as it does not support 5Ghz. But...

I am using a Amplify HD Mesh in the house with two mesh points as i had to cover 4,000 sq ft. I installed the Ubiguiti NanoStation on the outside of the metal workshop. The NanoStation has a led light system on the back of it that helps in alignment (but takes a few minutes when initially...

If you change your mind and go with the Ubiguiti NanoStation Loco M5 i'll help if i can on the configuration. I'm no expert but I can Forest Gump my way through. lol
