Here are what I am using:
Anker Uspeed 10-port
You need to find the older model w/o the 9+1 charging port on it
I got one last month. I am currently trying to get 2 more following the USB Eruptor price drop and I am not sure I'll be able to find some more.
Is there something wrong with the 9+1 charging port beside maybe be a little bit more expensive?
To the contrary since it come with a 5A PSU, it might be a better choice. I'm currently limiting to 8 the number of Eruptors I plug in the hub to not overload the 4A PSU.
Would plugging 9 Eruptors and plug the usb Artic breeze fan in the charging port be something possible?
Comments?
I know this thread is kind of old, but figure I'd ask anyway.
I've tried running 5 BEs on the Dlink hub (DUB-H7) but with 1 fan (arctic breeze mobile) I think I am over the limit. They'll mine, but eventually 1-3 crash with comm errors. 4 plus a fan seem perfectly fine though. I know better, but had to try...
Anyway, that hub you spliced power into looks an awful lot like the Satechi hub I have. It seems to use power from the host port as well as the wall-wart, I actually have one lone BE mining one one right now without the wall-wart because of port spacing. Did you modify the hub at all to remove that feature? Also, it looks like it has two SMT fuses or even a zero ohm links running on what looks like the extra large power trace.
I was going to cut those 0ohm links off and see if it killed the unplugged hub mode then jump it with external 5V, is that sorta what you did?
Thanks in advance!
