I think making the legs taller, might further help improve ventilation. A short, portable fan placed close to the legs will also ease things up a bit.

no the longer legs wont make any difference. i have tried running these vertically without legs on a metal bakers rack and the temp differences were the same. also longer legs means less stability because the center of gravity will be higher and no one wants their miner tipping over. longer legs means a wider base to bring back sturdiness and will use more PLA material and when there is no benefit to longer legs that equals uneeded waste. not to mention the cost of the kits will go up to offset the time and material needed to print them up. a box fan wont help air flow either because unlike the s5's these units are enclosed completely so running a box fan will just waste more electricity and you wont see really any gain from doing that.....not with the s5+/s7/s9 miners at least since they all use the same design.

Sooooooooo no one wants to order any vertical leg kits for their miners ehh?? shoot me a pm if you do

I just lol'ed when looking at bitmain website, no S9 listing at all, they're trying to create a scarcity when there's none exists, they have thousands of S9's loaded up and ready to ship. Let's see if they actually RAISE the price for the next batch. They're so sketchy, it's not even funny. You know they don't have to play this stupid game, trying to fool people into thinking their S9 miners are so scarce. Epic failure on bitmain. They're turning into a scammy company. Shame on bitcointalkers for enabling them.

Huh? How is it an epic failure on their part? They have a product for which there is a clear demand. They are charging what they want and people are still buying them. Clearly there are people willing to pay the asking prices, as evidenced by the info that @philipma1957 has posted regarding the BTC addresses used for payment.

Just because you and a number of other people think the S9s should be cheaper doesn't make it so. If you are not happy with the prices, just hodl your coins and wait.

Until there are new miners available from other companies that rival the S9, or the demand for the S9 dries up, Bitmain will continue with prices at the current level.

Cheers,

Anyone have the upper and lower operating temperatures for the Temp(PCB) and Temp(chip) for the S9?

Only critical one is chip temp. Anything under 100C is fine, 95 or less ideal but you need reasonable ambient to do that. Not great but I have a b1 running at highest die temp of 100-102C, works fine.

Danger point starts around 110, Bitmain usually specs an absolute max junction (die) temp of 125C

ahhh i see.. Thanks for the info.> i have yet to get anything on the order i made at bitmainwarranty.. Ill see if that processes before i order 1.. I would like 2 on hand. Thanks again

if you guys want better temps get some legs to stand them vertically. i have used them on all my s7's so far and they do work on the s9's too. i have some for sale and i print new ones all the time so pm me if you want to buy a set or more. i have sets with the extended screws and sets without the screws. you will need longer screws to hold the legs in place because the stock ones aren't long enough but if you rather supply your own screws that's fine too.

I also have duct kits that allow you to attach dryer ducts from places like home depot or lowes to help vent hot air away from your miners. i use ducts and legs on all of my miners and it helped reduce temps in the rooms my miners run in big time and the legs by themselves help cool off the chips. I saw a temp reduction of about 10 degrees on my s7's when putting them vertical vs leaving them flat. lower temps mean slower fan speeds which means less noise for the home miner.

yep i checked bitmaintech and they arent listed any more. Ebay wants 3x price which is just ridiculous. If anyone has a used s7 they would like to sell that has the pcb with the 10 hash board hookups think its batch one or batch 2 of s7 id consider that aswell. Will do some more digging this week. The pcb i got only has 3 connects to hashboard rest they didnt soldier on. Be nice to have a fail over in case of a dead pcb. Thanks for the info

Thx for the feedback. I'm referring to the standard 14 gauge extension cords that you'd buy from Home Depot. The 20 amp was referring to the max amperage that is written on the extension cord packaging

To answer this in easy language.

Most houses are wired with 14 gauge.

For my miners -- I use 12 gauge.

The longer the cord -- the more likely it will heat up.

14 should be fine -- but, if it is longer than a short extension cord -- I would personally err to the 12 gauge.

I live in the U.S. and the miners in my home are also powered with the EVGA 1600.

I should have phrased my question more simply. Can I use this extension cord with my 1600W EVGA PSU to power my S9. I was concerned that the max amperage rating of 15 for the extension cord would be an issue.

http://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-50-ft-14-3-Extension-Cord-AW62608/202353284?keyword=14+gauge+husky+extension+cord+50+foot

you are using it with 120 volts and plugging into the cord that comes with the evga 1600 ?

if so it would work for 240 volts (been there done that)

if will get hot for 120 volts.

Give me 5 minutes please for the correct cord to use.

these are better choices if you are using 120 volts and need 50 feet

http://www.harborfreight.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?limit=40&q=extension+cord

if its 120 he best go with something in 10 gauge good to about 30 amps.. since he pulling over long distance that should suffice. Phil do you know where i can order some s7 or s9 controllers(just the pcb i have tons of beagles). I need to have a couple on hand just in case. I ordered last one from bitmainwarranty and would like to get at least one more
