18AWG all the way from the PSU to the BFL. The splice is the last thing to get warm. Are there PSUs that use 16AWG?
You'll not brick the router running cgminer on it. It doesn't re-write the firmware or anything. CGMiner uses so little resourses I'm sure it'll be fine. Try it and see.

Hey P_Shep do you think I could get the dd_wrt running with cgminer on a linksys E2000? It has half the ram and the chip runs at 354Mhz compared to the E3000. I didn't want to start flashing and risk bricking if there was not going to be enough resources to do this.
Are you still running those spliced 18AWG cables? I have not noticed any unusual temperatures with the better insulated versions that I make 16 or 18AWG. I have noticed some warmth on the cables from the PSU side. They must really use some cheap wire to make these.

It's almost concerning how warm the cables get, even the PSU cables. I guess pulling 7A will do that!

hi,
has anyone use a tp-link mr3420 with open-wrt to run a and control ztex boards ?

My link should work for you. It's a mipsel processor so the binary should work. Have a bash and see how far you get. Let me know what changes you have to make.

I'd like to see a picture of how to hook up a single to a power supply instead of using the brick that comes with them.

Icarus, and possibly ztex, but not sure if ztex will work or not.
And yeah, forgot to consider the losses in the PSU.

650W gold PSU, so it's running at ~73% rated power.
Actually, less. Probably 65% or so.
You see 480W at the wall, but this PSU is probably outputting ~425W to the router & singles (~89% efficiency). That means 425/650 = 65%
A 650W PSU running at 100% would output exactly 650W while pulling more than 650W at the wall.
Very nice. Looking for a used e3000 right now. This will make a sweet miner manager for the BFL singles. Does the cgminer 2.4.1 also have icarus support?
Yeah he's using wireless 
And I'd assume he's using MPBM on openWRT, yeah?

Router and hub use ~12W

I don't see a Ethernet to the router. Using wireless I presume ?
What is CPU load and does it not overheat from cgminer coordinating them BFLs ?

The last of my BFLs have arrived, here's my completed setup:

6 units + router + hub = 480W

Nice! What is the power supply rated for, and about how much power do the router and switch take by themselves? http://i.imgur.com/YyROj.jpg?1

So much porn in this thread!
I have 9 Ztex boards on my mac mini and it consumes alltogether 170 w.
Not that effective but i dont habe any pcs left here
Ill post a pic:

Just my Mac Mini server with 3 BFLs.
I'm not sure how cost effective using a mac mini server is... But it looks nice! 
Just my Mac Mini server with 3 BFLs 10 BFLs (5/17). Moved into a cooler place, and humming along nicely.
Finally running cgminer native as well:
Only waiting for the new power-source and cables to replace all these crappy powerblocks.
