Anyone having really bad smells from the antminers? I had one running in my game room, and I got a horrible headache, could be cheap glue or something??  These things are going in my garage as soon as I have some wireless antennas.  Probably breathing in some mercury/glue mix.  

Yep there's a normal "electronics" smell for the first 6-8 hours; just keep the room well ventilated and it will go away.

That's the "new computer" smell.  It's a lot like the "new car" smell.  Computer geeks like it (to an extent), it means there's new equipment around. Smiley
