I purchased 10gh of l3+ miners and the op gave free firmware that lowers the watts used on L3+ gear saving me a lot of watts since 2018.
...
at jstefanop thank you 🙏
not to hijack, but what firmware are your L3+s rocking these days?
i picked up a used L3+ off ebay and just now am able to power it up and test it. The firmware on it is ~2018
....
more on topic, I have seen a lot of folks inquire about replacement fans ... my batch 2 fan was doing fine but seemed to be a bit louder than I remembered after a move.
I went with
https://www.newegg.com/p/1YF-014R-000U0?Item=9SIAS45CZW8656 and the Futurebit Apollo LTC has been running cooler and quieter (I did clean it well on the fanswap and that always helps).
High Speed: This model is designed to maximize airflow and can be too loud for some applications. 92 x 92 x 38 mm ( 3.62 x 3.62 x 1.5 in.)
Rated Voltage: 12V
Rated Current: 1A
Airflow: 117 CFM
Power: 12W
Speed: 5800 RPM
It's always nice to have a backup if one croaks.
Cheers
