Thanks!

I doubt if the ones from your local store have the 3.5A PSU.  For that price, I'm almost sure they come with the inferior 400mA or similar PSU as sold on the Bay.  Have you verified it?  If they do indeed have the 3.5A AC adapter, I sure would like to buy a bunch of them from your local store.  Even with a 2.5A adapter, they'd still be dirt cheap.  Where's your locality, BTW?

I only populated the front ports because I have exactly 35 miners (i.e. 7 x 5 = 35) in hand.  I'll have more BEs coming in tomorrow.

I have personally confirmed that they have the 3.5A PSU (I have 4 in hand).  This is from my campus electronics supply store.

Are you able to fit miners in the back ports?  Have you tried mining with all 7?  Also, how do you have the hubs connected (daisy chain or hub-spoke)?

Great setup once again.
