Thanks Cablez!

Cable looks great. Plugs volt tested fine. Now I wait for my Jally's to arrive....

I could use two more of the ATX power switches as well. I prefer the ones with the plastic rocker switch not the metal whatever type switch you call that Smiley

I am on it. Will get in touch.

Cablez, if you are willing to do special orders, I would be interested in a cable.

I would like you to start with one of your switches like this:

But, in addition to the switch, I would like you to use the available 5V lines to give me as many 5V 3.5mm plugs as possible (up to 10).  Each plug needs to be capable of 3 amps.

I need about 8 feet before the first connector and at least 3 inches between the plugs.  If you can do something like this, pm me a quote.

You have mail.

My cables will only work for the BFL FPGAs and SC Jalapeno units currently.  The SC Little Single and 'Big' Single will use 6pin PCIe connectors instead of a dc coaxial plug as they draw too much power now.

Originally my plan was to do the whole BFL lineup in addition to other FPGAs but that plan has fallen through.

Would your cables work for the BFL Singles coming out ?

Just wanted to say if you want quality service and quality cables, Chris is the guy to go to!

I realized i made a mistake with the type of plug i wanted after Chris already made the cable, and he had no problem fixing my mistake for FREE!

all around good service, and nice guy!

Hey whitefeather.  I am glad that my cables are working out well for you in your setup.  Happy Mining! Grin

I have been using two cables (three barrel plugs each) to power 6 BFL FPGA units for about two weeks now, and everything is working perfectly. Where these 6 units are located, sometimes the power is not clean, so switching over to a PSU and Chris' cables have given the units consistent, clean power and may have even contributed to helping one of the units get over its incessant throttling. I have tried to fix that throttling with everything I could think of, including upgrading the internal fans (it runs the coolest temps of the group), but couldn't get it to behave until I hooked it up to the PSU with Chris' cable. Problem solved. Thanks Chris, for a quality product.

FYI the BFL FPGA cable works fine with the BFL SC Jalapeno (I'm only using 32W on my Jalapeno)

It is good to know my original cables still have a use in this ASIC world. Thank you Jalapenos! Grin

Originally they were also intended for the SC singles but it looks like that ship has sailed.

My 6 pins are all 6+2 pins, which have 3 12v lines. That may not be common, so I guess I misspoke. My intention was with an 8 pin setup.

However, If I run a Y-splitter to a set of your cables, won't all 160ish watts run through your single cable? Wouldn't that overload your cable at 18 guage? What would be the max load capable with a 16 guage?

My thought was that I'd have to disassble the cables and manually connect 2 12v lines to the barrel plugs and 2 grounds as well. Or am I misunderstanding something?

Also, thanks for the quick response!

If you have my 18AWG cables then we really need to see what the final power numbers from BFL are. There is a lot of talk that they will ship more units at lower chip counts and power. This should be satisfactory up to 10amps which will be over the maximum for the minifit jr connectors on my cable and the PSU. Very short runs of 18awg out in the open so there is some cooling should be able to go to 14amps and be still within spec. It is not my comfort zone but the handbook does say it can work.

16AWG wire can go upto almost 20amps safely in short runs and out in the open. The problem still lies with the minifit connectors though, as with 16AWG they can do a max of 11Amps. Your last statement is correct by the way.  Smiley

Let us just be patient and see what the final delivered specs for the BFL singles will be. I can help you more when all the question marks are gone.  Smiley
