Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread
Thanks!
That board is your problem, it only provides 500ma per usb port. As you can see in my post above, the MLD's easily go over 2 amps!

Be sure to get that model with the inbuilt fan. It'll certainly prolong life span, usability + then you are sure you have the high powered version. They also come without fans but those then have 500ma-1000ma per port with 2 fast ports.
This one only has 2.1 amp max per port 10 amp total, still not going to cut it. These Moonlanders need at least 2.5 amps apiece.
So what would you suggest to power a little ml2 farm
