I use
https://www.ui.com/edgemax/edgerouter-x/ for my router
with the Unfi AP AC lite for wifi.
Could the smaller and cheaper PoE injectors work as an alternative to that router?

Possibly, but if Unifi is too pricey for you, take a look at Draytek's offerings.
Their PoE switches start at about £150 I think.

They're just power supplies.
Having recently changed some of my stuff around I do have a ubiquiti router and wi-fi AP (I'm not sure which one) I'm planning to sell if you're interested.

Maybe I misunderstood, assumed that the Unifi router that you were recommended supported PoE and that was a feature that you require. As @aggi says, they're just power supplies.

It's more that they are roughly the same price, but have a lot more features and way more powerful.
The downside is, they are not a combined "easy to use" wifi router.

Easily max out my line, the router tends to tap out around 800->900Mbps.
Configuration is ok, if you can follow a guide (or work in networking). I honestly have very little set up, but I have an ethernet connection for internet.
Note: the router does NOT have a DSL/Cable modem in it, so you might need one of those ontop,
