@sidehack: what is the max amount of Ampère that the R606 will pull?

I currently use a computer power supply and the 6 pin connector and if I recall right that port is 10A.

If I want to use another power supply that does not have that 6 pinner and connect it on that round socket does it really have to be 12V/8A?

Or will a 12V/4.5A psu work aswell? I have such lying around and it's a lot smaller than the pc brick but has no fan.

The terminus is running at voltage level speed 4 and gets 750-800GHz on a pi zero.


Can the red and flashing white led be disable with cg miner settings?


Edit:

can I use for example the P6 connector 12+ wires of a 300W (268W max for 12V) pc psu on that round socket? According to the label that is up to 19A.



Edit 2: I have it connected as mentioned in the first edit of this post. It seems to work fine.
