Thanks for the replies. I didn't know you could voltage mod the L3 all the way down to 700 Watts or so.
Do you know if it can be done without any additional hardware such as a dongle? Because with the sidehack S7-LN mod, you need to buy some special part to communicate with the controller and get it to undervolt.
The tool is all software based. The thread to the tool can be found at the link below.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3546316.0The thread is full of good information and should answer almost any question you have related to the application.
I could help you out as well if you read the thread and still have questions.
and as I said I have some on hand with a psu.
I am USA based so it may not be practical if he is not in the USA
I can get fan speeds down to 2800 which is not crazy loud
I am actually up in Canada so the shipping would kill the deal.
However we checked locally on Craigslist and eBay and there is a bunch for sale nation-wide.
Wondering what a fair price is for these L3+ miners? Looking at Bitmain its around $200 USD, so is $200 USD for a used one with customs paid a fair price?
