That totally sucks, my miner should be delivered today but now "Held in Warehouse" and "Additional documentation is required on the merchandise description". Anyone had the same issue?


me too, a woman called me from ups at six am asking for a tax id number, she said my s3's are in kentucky and they won't be here 'til tomorrow, she said the insured value being over $2,000 is why the issue came up.

I put a six gauge wire on a 70 amp circuit breaker, from my main 200 amp fuse box to a spare room, how many s3's will I be able to run on that circuit, air conditioner is on a separate 20 amp breaker.


thanks in advance

70amp double pole?  You can pull 56 constant amps through each wire at 120V each.

You could run about 34-36 S3's off that depending on how good your PSU's are.

It will get warm.



Stop right now. Call an electrician and get him/her to install a sub panel, tell the electrician your power needs. Do this before you burn your house down and void your insurance

edit: get permits and have it all inspected


in New Jersey,  USA

you don't need an electrician if you own the home and you live in it.  You do need a permit and an inspection.

Thats true in most US and Canadian jurasdictions. Still Call an electrician


It was installed by an electrician, and he did put in a sub-panel, I just need my batch 3 s3's to get here.
