Directly power 3dr Solo

[psybersapien]

I was reading the 3dr solo development guide and came across a reference indicating you can "...directly power Solo instead of using batteries". Rules and Advice | 3DR Solo Development Guide

How do I directly power a solo instead of using a battery?

You have to buy the power adapter and a looooong extension cord

As usual, it seems I answered my own question after posting it and after I've done some searching on the web beforehand.
I eventually settled on these products which will not only help with doing some bench work with the Solo, it will help with the smaller drones I assemble/repair. That helps justify the cost of the power supply.
