Title: UL listed PSUs for Antminer?
Post by: thehun on January 05, 2018, 09:06:15 PM
Hi,

I have some Giga-watt tokens where I would like to allocate Antminers but now they will only host PSUs that are UL listed. I have been looking around and can't find anything suitable that is UL listed (it seems most mining HW stores don't even know what this is).

Any ideas?

Ask them for a list of supported PSUs?

IT sounds like they are just trying to prevent people from running Chinese hackjob PSUs that have been popping up everywhere these days.

They say it's a legal requirement for their site (for the protection of the employees taking care of the miners), and when I asked they sent me this link to a database:

but that doesn't really help at all as I can't really find out where to buy these...

This may be a bit dated but should be of some help
