Build your own

Found an excellent article that describes how to build minipwner which has the similar capabilities as the pineapple from Hak5

Devices such as the minipwner and the pineapple should not be used for illegal activities, but can provide some useful wireless testing tools and help in some pen testing scenarios

What will make these devices more useful is the use of a battery pack and there is an increasing number of battery packs design to recharge or power smartphones and tablets, these often have multiple USB sockets on them to connect USB charging cables.

The minipwner requires a Micro USB (B) connector whilst the Pineapple uses a 5.5mm barrel connector, on ebay and amazon there are a number of USB to power adaptors including 5.5mm barrel ones.
