Awesome that's good to know and does the controller attachment keep all the information or would a replacement need a micro sd with an image on it to run properly?

The OS and all config is on the SD card so you'd need to either keep the original one shipped with the miner and put it in the new BBB or get a new one and flash it with the S7 firmware image.

S5/S5+ S7 they all  do not have SD card.

S5+/S7  controller.

I assume it is preflashed somewhere on the BB controller and you would need to get that os and put it on a micro sd for the new non Bitmain BB. According to Tupsu it isn't released yet which is no bueno.
