I see. I was just curious because on the Bitmain website under the L3+ specifications it literally says "800W +10%", which wouldn't leave nearly enough room to run two of them off a single 1800w PSU.

Check out this video. It shows the actual power usage for an L3+ with 220v as well as 110v.

Is that a normal p4400 kill a watt?  I looked it up and it said the max operating voltage was 125v, while you ran 240v through it.  Is there another higher voltage model to look for?  Or does it work anyway?  

Also, what's the surge protector situation like?  Do the bitmain PSUs handle that?  If not, are there any miner preferred models/brands for handling all that wattage from multiple asics?

Thanks in advance Smiley

I don't know much about the kill a watt, but as far as surge protectors go, I believe they're available in high wattage and voltage but they are very costly. Don't quote me on it, but I believe most breakers these days have surge protectors built in, and most power supplies these days are designed to be able to handle surges without damaging the equipment they're hooked up to.
