Title: Can i set an Antminer S1 to plug directly into an outlet? Post by: jphelps on November 17, 2017, 12:38:02 AM So im wanting to 2 S1's and i know that they usually use 450-500w, and i dont want to buy 2 PSU's so i was wandering if there was a way to wire a plug from the S1 so i can plug it into my wall? Sorry if its a dumb question, im just curious ;D

Sorry if its a dumb question, im just curious ;D it can't be, you can't use 220 v voltage. Title: Re: Can i set an Antminer S1 to plug directly into an outlet?

A power supply is just an AC/DC transformer.

Do you see anything resembling an AC power connector on the miner? No.The miners run on 12VDC. What provides that power? A PSU... Title: Re: Can i set an Antminer S1 to plug directly into an outlet?

Sorry if its a dumb question, im just curious ;D Ignoring the terrible idea of you burning down your house. Why not buy 1 PSU to run both of the miners. I did that when I bought my first s5's, I picked up a PSU and ran 3 of them off it. Title: Re: Can i set an Antminer S1 to plug directly into an outlet?
