Got my second and third S7's yesterday had to figure out where to put them.

So I spent my Sunday building this in my Gym Room - the beginnings of a MicroFarm

Hi, are you running your s7 with 220v or 110v PSU?

Regards.

Nice set up. Personally I'm glad you shelves are not made from wood and that they are not solid but like grate which is good for cooling.

I agree with comments about all running from one socket though. So maybe you should do something about it.

Thanks for the Comments --

So what you can't really see from the pictures ::

1) There is a window directly behind them, which is open - so Hot Air is expelled directly out the window -- with all three running all night at 700mhz the average blade Temp was around 59 and all day today 64 (with the doors closed) if I leave the door open this will probably improve

2) Whilst It looks like They are all running off one socket - One of the really untidy cables hanging from the roof is where I have pulled an extension from another socket, so I have two running off one socket ,, and another off another socket - each with its own surge protector It's 240v 16A plug

All runs great -- except today when our domestic worker plugged in the Iron, in another room and that plug point happened to be on the same circuit as the two miners -- so it tripped the breaker --- Solution - She must pick another room to iron in Grin

One day when I want to get more miners I'll have to look at pulling another circuit from the db board --

They going to be alright all running from one socket?

Yeah man, maybe split them in 2-1 configuration per socket

Tried 3 miners on 1 socket, wasn't really safe

What's the ambient temperature there? I see behind PSU's it's a window so it would be best to open it and let the air flow in the room for better circulation and cooling (in case your only cooling system is only the electric fan and miners own fan) but if ever you have a cold room due to aircon then not needed so it will have less dust over time. Most home gyms owners don't put aircon on their gym rooms and if your one of them then longevity of those S7's will shorten without proper cooling.

Regarding embedding of the image you posted, you can't since your still a Newbie rank but since Minerkev posted a wrong code, because it isn't just the IMG tag but also something else to the first and last of the link itself, here's the proper code for it:

I tried to be neat with my S1 units then the s3 didn't fit the s1 spaces and it caused nothing but a headache. When your all done the replacement for the s7 will be out and you will get to start all over. I gave up being neat just toss them where ever they fit and get enough air.
