Lol  Cheesy, nobody is going to buy that piece of junk.
Those X3's is pooping like champagne bottles.
BA has advised everybody to shut down their X3 untill further notice, since they are one big fire-trap.
Please do everybody a favor and take your unit and place it in the dumpster.

Can you point me to a link where BA has said this?

How about this one, POST 1 edit. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=294197.msg3152996#msg3152996
08 Sept 2014: X3 Power supply recall

There have been reports that some X3s are failing. We have located this problem to be caused by the power supply.
Please note that this power supply is not manufactured by Black Arrow and has been purchased from a company in Shenzhen which sold it to us as CE certified.

After thorough investigations the power supply company has reached the conclusion that there are 3 major issues in this PSU and any PSU can fail at any time and it not safe to use. They have currently fixed the issues and are currently testing them.

Please stop using all X3s immediately!

We are recalling the X3 power supplies. Please do not ship your X3 unit or X3 Power supply back to us right now. We will contact the X3 customers later this week with more instructions on how to arrange shipping. If you have an X3 and have not received an email from us this week please contact our customer support immediately.
