i wouldn't mind to pay for working version that can easily be updated using GUI.. is that possible since most of us here are probably using hosting facility. Has anyone tried down volting L3++ via lowering standard frequencies? any results?

For anyone running stock firmware, or not wanting to pay a 2% free forever on a simple mod, below is my tool to change L3+ voltage for free Smiley

Its simple to use but requires basic use of ssh and command line. More info in the thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3546316.0

Since most boards come with ridiculously high voltage for the stock frequency (so bitmain can sell us stuff like L3++),  you can reduce the voltage to the lowest setting on most boards, which brings down power consumption from 800 watts to about ~650 per miner.

Would you be able to write a script that does it automatically for some $. I have all my L3+ in a hosting facility and if I can lower the voltage by 10-15% I can save on my electricity bill up there ven more.
