I got the tracking number of DHL, but the miner is still not picked from Bitmain. So, its almost nothing, NO ETAs till now.

I think FedEx is better, DHL not good and UPS really bad with Bitmain. Angry

Mine is FedEx, it should reach me by Monday 22 8:00 GMT time.

You are lucky. Which country are you from ?

Can someone tell me if we can run these in a aprtment in the US? I believe we have 125 V 15 A breakers. But the APW++ PSU on bitmain site says that 110 V will only provide 1200 W ourput. Are we SOL? Will the bathroom or kitchen special outlets do any help?

Run it from your dryer outlet. Can buy outlet plug converters and extension cords. You'll just have to hang dry your clothes for a while but you can put them in the room with the miner cuz it'll be hot!!!

You know tho, if past experience is any indicator, it's always cheaper to just buy the coin instead of the miner. Coins that have asics always go up in price too, dramatically. So I'm just going to buy SC. I bought jupiters back in '13 and had I just bought the btc, I would have made out 100x better.

I am still confused what converter to buy and where. Can you suggest what to buy? I initially thought the below should work

https://www.amazon.com/AC-Connectors-14-30P-Welder-adapter/dp/B06XGQ951H/

But it looks like it is a converter for welder adapter which wont suit for the power cable to power the APW3++?

This is how my dryer power slot looks

https://imgur.com/a/Eais0

ANd this is the power cable I was planning to buy

https://www.amazon.com/C2G-Cables-03134-Universal-IEC320C13/dp/B00005113L/

The answers are out there but what I was planning to do is goto home depot and just taking that pic with me and asking them in the dryer dept. Being honest, I'm trying to run another appliance, in another room, requiring this power. You'll need to also buy a power cord. The miner power supply does not come with a power cord. You can buy a power cord that will fit whatever extension you find. I don't have the answers at my fingertips because I stopped looking. I didn't get one. There's a facebook group that will be more than willing to help. This dude on youtube is the real deal. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCg8qb-blh8xGMYcBPC1ntvA
His facebook page is awesome! www.facebook.com%2Fgroups%2F604653876592512%2F

^I hope that link works, I quit facebook the other day. His fb link is in his videos.

I was implying the same thing...modify a dryer plug, and don't run both at once. Hang clothes lines cause this thing is gonna make some heat.

I'm thinking the APW3++ power supply has a terminal lug hookup.
Making a standard dryer plug work will be cheap and easy for this. $20 at Lowes/HD.

If the APW3++ has a plug interface it will be about $10 more and need some soldering work...

I'm in the USA and used UPS and still no shipping Sad

paid on 2018-01-17 20:07 so I feel cheated others are getting it faster.

Yep, my payment was credited one minute after yours, I used UPS also, no tracking number and showing unshipped. Seems like everyone with tracking info used DHL or Fedex. I guess thats good to know in the future.

You might be onto something there. A few months ago, Bitmain contacted me about some shipments that were scheduled to go through UPS. They told us they would ship 1 week earlier if we changed to FedEx. We declined since it was a large shipment of power supplies that we did not need immediately - but your comment makes me wonder if there's a deeper issue here with using UPS.
