[Soekris] net4801 upper voltage range

[Sean Murphy]

Greetings All

I have been using an early net4801 on a remote wireless repeater  
station for near two years now with a 24v power system.  Alas  
recently storm damage caused a short circuit and the net4801 was  
fried (along with everything else).  I am tomorrow going to be  
installing the brand-new net4801 I received and just noticed an  
inconstancy in the information on the soekris web site.  I know that  
my first net4801 accepted voltages up to 28volts and the PDF manuals  
on the site (dated april 04) still say that, but that the stats  
listed on the net4801 web page now list 20v as the max.

Can anyone tell me if the design of the net4801 has changed or is  
this a typo on the web site?  I am installing the new net4801 this  
weekend and do not want to damage it if it now does not accept 24v....

The station is remote and so powered by solar and wind with a large  
battery bank, the equipment is powered directly off of the battery  
bank so i can not just simply plug in a 120v wall-wart.

Thanks

Sean
