Re: Official FutureBit Apollo LTC Image and Support thread

- A super ECO mode which further undervolts and underclocks the Apollos for folks with high electricity costs and in readiness for the Litecoin halving in August to squeeze the efficiency. Although I hope the price doubles to compensate.

You can always experiment with this on your own. Just go to custom settings and start lowering frequency/voltage.

You can't "break" anything when undervolting/underclocking. The ASIC chips will just produce a lot of HW errors if you undervolt too far. Things only get dangerous when you start over-volting.

FYI Eco mode defaults are ~740mV voltage and 600MHZ clocks. So there is still plenty of headroom to go even more efficient. I think the best i have gotten is ~ .9 W/MH at around 80-90MH

could you add

to this

Eco default = 740 mv 600 mhz
Balanced default = ?
Turbo default = ?

I went in and set

735.3 mv and freq 598

my errors are 0.4%

my hash is 98

I just got an Apollo a few weeks ago and have been running in eco. I did start tuning from eco and got it down to 727 mv and up to 611 with 1% HW errors, which I am pretty happy with! But I have the same question. I want to see if I can push it higher, even with a few more mv, so knowing the stock settings for balanced and Turbo would be a big help.

Thanks for making these! They rock and I'll grab another one once they are back in stock!

Yea ill put all the stuff up "soon". Still haven't updated the OP on this thread with a real writeup :/....between building the new PSU, software updates, and getting Batch 2 ready I have been swamped.
