WTB one Chili. Located in Germany. Please PM me
Do you have solder skills??
...would have one what need FTDI chip replacement ;-) ... if you need a "good" one you can PM me with your price suggest.

Well apparently there was a power outage over the weekend that I wasn't aware of. Perhaps that has something to do with the issues. Either way on a whim I shut everything down and plugged the second Chili back in and for the past 45 minutes now they've both been cruising. I do find it interesting that when I was just running 1 it ran about 3GH/s faster though. Will they dynamically adjust their speed in response to a power shortage? Or to put it another way - is it possible/likely that the Chilis have the ability to run at a slower speed if they sense they aren't getting enough juice to really push things?
It shouldn't be a heat issue - one is air cooled and the other is water cooled and they're positioned in such a way that they shouldn't be sharing any warm air.

My chili's at 38Gh draw 220watts
The bottom end units run at 33Gh draw 180watts
one with defective engines runs at 23Gh and 140watts.
If you are getting 39Gh then all your chips are good ones and running at top speed, (the power draw will be a lot higher than 220w)
The chili's will run anywhere between 23gh and 40gh depending on the power available. The voltage will regulate to meet this level.
Much below 23gh the power supply stays below its critical voltage and will crash.
4 chilis working stable ( even been Lucko's boards ) since an 1 month and half on coolermaster b700. no aditional load.
Only issue: power cables temperature is 55 ºC ( so somewhat hot.. ) at connectors. I think power will be near 150/180W but Haven't mesured yet consumption at power cord.
For me chilis apears not sensible to small power fluctuations but hashing seem very sensible to room temperature.
Today total 143 GHS 131 GHs at pool 25,5 ºC room temperature. I have got in some cold days 145 GHs.
If room temperature is below 24,5 ºC i have a big trouble to maintain a stable setup
regards
It´s absolutely the same I have seen for weeks now - lower room temps are really a pain for start hashing.
When they start hashing - they finally run stable. I too have some boards what are starting everytime on 15 °C without a hairdryer.

About how much power have people had their Chilis drawing? I think I saw 180-200W each but I don't recall the specifics. I'm asking because my 700W (552 on the 12V) PSU that has been powering 2 Chilis faithfully for several months now seems to only want to run one. If I plug both in they'll hash for probably 30 seconds then everything dies and I have to wait a bit and play with the plugs to get things back on.
The other reason I'm leaning towards a PSU issue is that when I had both running they'd average 36-37. Just the one running is now breaking 39 which I'm sure requires more juice. Thanks in advance!

even the best psu will fail if pushed to 80% of its rating for 24/7
so this would indicate your unit has an absolute max of 440w usable.
I have chilis here drawing 220w at 38Gh, so I think you have been maxing out for some time.
I have a Corsair VX550 (its 7 years old) driving 2 chili very comfortably.
Alongside is my EVO labs 600w that can only support 1 chili.
Cheap PSU's will always loose in the end.
even the best psu will fail if pushed to 80% of its rating for 24
so this would indicate your unit has an absolute max of 440w usable.
Then again I ran it at 800+ for a few days, so a really good power supply makes a difference.

No other draw - zero problems. ymmv

I've been running 2 off it for about 2 months straight now. I've got one of the Molex plugs going to a fan splitter to run 2 case fans but there isn't any other draw on it besides the chilis and the fans.

That makes sense. I was curious about the draw because there seem to be several people running 2 chilis off a single 500W PSU. Guess I need to do some shopping.

Hi,
I have more Chilis - any idea why on one board Windows is getting "unknown device"? Finally the Chili never get detected as COM.
The website with the FTDI-drivers is too offline: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm - so maybe someone can share them.
Thanks for your help!
Did it just recently start this? Try uninstalling the unknown device in Windows and then plugging it back in.I have more Chilis - any idea why on one board Windows is getting "unknown device"? Finally the Chili never get detected as COM.

Yes - somehow it wasn`t hashing any more & I couldn`t get it back hashing. Wanted then flash a new firmware as this helped at one board but it was just recognized as "unknown device" with some Windows driver loaded. After try 100 different solutions (with delete driver, deactive, recycle, ....) today I wasn´t able finally to get it back. Funny & frustrating together as it was working everything good for weeks now with that board.
I plugged in too other boards & all are recognizing except this one. Any idea left?
Thanks Mr. Teal!
It`s a board of Lucko (are there too stickers on it??) - I have to look later when I am back at the mining dc.
I was thinking about the same that the chip could have be damaged but want to ask first in this thread. Could this be chip be replaced or somehow repaired?
Blown FTDI? I wonder because I have a jally here with a perfectly good FTDI chip but it's not talking to anything. Weird...
