Why is the phrase "Pod People" now running through my head?

Because I posted a picture from the movie Pod People a few pages back and it has subconsciously stuck in your brain.  Cheesy

Putting your weiner in it voids the warranty.
So there is a warranty?  Nice!  I'll be sure to clean it real good before I send it in. Wink

That is far better than Porn in my book.  Can't wait for everyone to post their Pod pic setups.

I'm still talking to the current owner of my surplus of Freezer 7 Pro coolers. I have permission to use them on this project but am still waiting on a price.

No, but I guess I got one on the museum shelf I could pull a cooler out of and see if it meets spec. My assumption is "probably not" but that' just an assumption.
If you would that would be cool.  There's a local guy that has a ton of them and if I can get them at $20 a piece I would have a case and
possibly two coolers as well. Roll Eyes

In the end, are you going to get your hand on that stack of cooler you mentioned you could get? I'm guessing people might be interested in buying it packaged with the pods for ease of setting them up.

Some people probably already got their coolers planned out but it might be a handy 1 stop solution for others.

Any idea if the chip coolers on the Bfl singles would work or know if they fit a certain socket.  Looking to build the
Bfl Pod possibly. Wink

I'm feeling a bit cynical this morning, so I choose to not answer that question but instead tell you that information is already present in this thread. In fact, every question about mechanical, electrical and interfacing attributes of this pod have already been answered. Just gotta look for it.
Sorry sidehack, I lost some days I go to search the info Smiley and thanks for the answer

What kind of power connector you will use for the pods?

...it'll depend on what Novak implements but we've talked about doing fan control ... can be given a curve or profile for thermostatic control and run the fans based on that ... the controller would have a default profile and you could, probably through cgminer, push a custom profile if you wanted to do something a bit different.

I think hacking the firmware should be unnecessary.

Sidehack, btw, what controller will the pods have? It would be cool if it was a PIC (or something similar) one could program via ICSP for custom fan control and such Cheesy

The short answer is "no". The long answer is a lot more technical but ends with the word "no".
