i have some antminer s3

but i only have 3000W to mining

i need to have max efficiency

3000w/120volts=25amps
keep in mind that as you volts drop you watts go down and amps go up

curently at my house i get 117 volts. a good idea would be to put a volt meter on your plug to see what you volts are at different times of the day and different days.

117v * 25 amps = 2925 watts
115v * 25 amps = 2875 watts

do you have a 25 amp beaker. that seams odd. residential is usealy 15 or 20???

Sounds like they are from Europe (Portugal?) where the voltage is 240V, so that would be only 12 Amps.

By the way, where do I find what the stock voltage is?

It is possible if you have some extra hardware. It has the software for wifi already and just needs one of the below to work. I was getting a wireless connection during testing without a pigtail. Signal strength was ~50% with the case on and right beside my WAP.

You can also do what laptops and other devices do and use an INTERNAL antenna, too.  Like this one:

There are many different kinds, just do a search for internal antenna.  Does anyone know what the enclosure is made of?  It looks like steel, so that could be a problem.  If you have a strong signal, it might just be enough to use for mining though.  Having the antenna glued/taped to the enclosure will probably help a lot (partially use the enclosure as an antenna?).  Otherwise you could always route that cable to the outside and tape the antenna to the side or something.  Someone has to try and let us know if that's even necessary.

I think an internal antenna would be easier than drilling holes, installing the connector and then a protruding antenna.  Btw, I use WiFi on all my S1's just to save on cables and switches/access points, and never had an issue with network connectivity.

I am interested in doing this, but I have some questions first.  How do we know how much the miner is hashing?  Is there a pool somewhere with stats that we can monitor?  What happens if there is a discrepancy?

Also, do we need to post our payment info publicly here?  I'd rather do it privately.

Very good deal indeed!

It's obvious.  They reply to only select posts where people are blatantly accusing them.  However, instead of anything productive, they conduct themselves in a totally unprofessional manner.  For example, "Make you shitstorm or not!  we dont care about you".  This is not how any company representative should act from a respectful company.

They completely ignore posts from people like bclcjunkie that ask about details of their product.  They give no details at all.  Instead they post the same two things in here and other threads: a picture of two people shaking hands, and a video that's supposed to be a "demo" but doesn't demonstrate anything functional or provide any details.  This is somehow supposed to convince us?

If a company wants customers, as almost all companies do, they would do their best to give their customers as much proof as they can, or as many convincing details as possible to gain credibility.  As it stands now, with the way they have been acting, is that they are trying to avoid the truth that they don't have any functioning demos or prototypes.  Other companies that do pre-orders post progress of development, pictures of parts, or photos of the lab where things happen.  They have not supplied anything as such which makes you question if they even are working on anything, or simply try to get as many pre-orders as they can and run thanks to very loose T&Cs.
