It's 60 - 65 F pretty consistently.  Here's something I noticed, your software wattage reported (2532w) is way higher than what my software reported (2361w) at 62 TH auto tune, BUT it seems right in line with my draw at the wall measurement (2500w).  So that's very interesting to me...

Further background on my situation.:

The watt-meter I am using is hard wired right into the breaker panel, circuit specific for my miner.  I do have the 50T s17pro version if that matters at all.  I reset the firmware and re-tuned for 58 TH.  This time it came in a 2010W on software and 2200w on panel.  Maybe my watt meter is reading high, or maybe my software is reporting low but that seems unlikely.  Standard specs from bitmain claim 1975w for 50T and I'm registering 2330w for 51T... that's a pretty big jump right there as well, so maybe it's my meter?  I'd be interested to see other peoples numbers.

And again, I compared the stock firmware to the custom using the same at the wall watt meter, so even i it's off, it's off for both equally and should still give a reasonable comparison. As I said before, there is still a significant power savings using your firmware. I'm not arguing the efficiency improvement at all, just trying to figure out the discrepancy between software and "actual."
