Clattered in the box ... the thing is probably flown in the box. I have to now buy a good power supply ggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
They have a warranty on them.
So you can get a replacement for free.
Since we all know the quality of these bad boys, I would put it somewhere that is flammable though. Smiley

I remember reading that BFL claimed only 1% defective/RMAs.
I have had an ASIC on one of the singles blow up.
Also 5 or 6 power supplies too.

I love the fact that each time I get a new one from them it has a new colored led!

Pretty much all the failures I have run into have been power supply related. Did have one USB failure that was caused by someone shoving something into the USB port, but I don't think that is BFL's issue.

Overall the HW has been excellent, just the power supplies that are junk.
