That's why I said my spondoolies hosted miners hash at 1.4T because they are on 208v. But here in America, it is common to run off of 120v. Now, everything is fine if I run it all in the datacenter, but what if the hosting fee becomes too much based on BTC prices and I just want to take them back and put them in some back room at the office? As in it makes a small margin of profit running them myself without hosting, but pay hosting fees wouldn't be profit anymore at that point. Maybe everyone else doesn't think this way or have this concern...



My datacenter's hosting fees are probably comparable to or lower than your electricity prices. We'll be using >= 208V. We won't be ready to host for another two weeks, though.



In the SP10 firmware, there's an option to ignore or modify the power limit when running on 115V. You should only do this if you have a thicker-than-normal cable between the PSU and the wall (12 awg preferred, but 14 awg might be okay too).

OK, interesting, please send me the information and prices. Right now the SP10s are doing OK so far in Israel (fingers crossed), but just thinking about the day when its not worth the electricity anymore, then I would be running off 110v somewhere when forced to run at a negative cash flow. I think we have a total about about 10++ SP10s in various places, but they are all not mine.

I have a 14AWG wire, and 20amp dedicated outlet for each. By mistake one time I grabbed a 10amp cord, I was puzzled that even though the SP10 was pulling just 1000W, the cord was super hot. I guess not all chords are created equal. What does unlocking the voltage do to the heat. I have my fans set on 90% constant. How to do the voltage/option hack, in the GUI or only in the config file?
