@IITravel01,

1200W for 3 S3+ is a bit too high...

We have low efficient PSU and Kill-a-Watt showing 1087-1107W.

PM us your e-mail, someone from the company will send you a beta firmware for the S3 and S3+

Some are already floating around I think, but if you want the authentic version, PM us and will have someone e-mail it you.

I tried both 120v and 230v (with a step up voltage converter and a true sine wave UPS and a 240v Kill-A-Watt) with a Gold 1200w (showed 91% efficiency with 2 X S3+) and also used a Platinum 1600w power supply.  You can check my earlier posts for more info.  3 x S3+ at default took about 1,200w at the wall (but is rated at 355w x3 = 1,065w).

Can I get some beta testers for a new S3 firmware please? Download link is here, it *should* be good to go but as you know....

Rolls back to the last good patch in Oct (1024), but fixes voltage adjustment and the important reset button. Hopefully.... let me know.

hey dogie, i tried to flash the bin and get solid red and solid green lights on the s3.  when i try to reach the miner i get "network is unreachable."  Does this mean that I have to take out the card and reflash it with firmware, or something else?  So far this beta doesn't work for me.  I think I read the same thing prior but nonetheless tried it out.

The firmware works fine, its been tested by a lot of people now. Was the process interrupted in any way or did it appear to complete? In what state is your miner in now - mining or inaccessible?

Edit: Nevermind

I got the new firmware to work!  I had some intermittent phases of red and green lights both solid and flashing.  I manually reset the miner and was then able to access it.  DHCP settings are slightly different so it took me a little while to get it sorted out.  But its hashing away now.
