Check out this video. It shows the actual power usage for an L3+ with 220v as well as 110v.
In the description of the APW3++ it says it only comes with 9 connectors, but in your video it clearly comes with 10. If it only came with 9, it wouldn't be able to power up two, so I guess it's a typo on their website?

It's a little confusing, but there are two versions of the APW3++. One of them has 5 pairs of connectors (10 total) and the other has 9 pairs of connectors (18 total). I believe you're looking at the one that has 9 pairs, which can run two L3+ from a single PSU when using 220v.

The one currently for sale on Bitmain says it has "9 pairs of 6 pin PCI-E connectors" and can power two L3+ when using 220v. I'm assuming 9 pairs means 18 total, since the one that is out of stock and comes with 5 pairs of 6 pin PCI-E connectors says it can only power one L3+? This makes more sense now, I thought 9 pairs meant 9 connectors total, not 16 Smiley
