All is not lost though, you still could put a couple 240V PDUs onto one of those circuits. As I linked, you could pick up a couple of cheap managed PDUs for $100 shipped. Any modern PSU can handle 240V and will be more efficient that way anyway.
how would I put more than one 240v socket if there is only one set of wires? |

i'm a software eng and one of my clients has a IT business, i'll try to get whatever old ones he has lying around for free  |

Yep I agree, Thats just the Bitcoin game. Looks like the bitcoin value is starting to rise a bit too.
Thats a good thing to.
yea as miners we'll need it since the diff went up 20% today |

ok this one has a decent explanation, it says max output 16a per socket

Wow now going on 3 days with only 4 blocks found per 24 hours, geee what bad luck for 9PB in hashing
yeap luck has been shitty lately! hopfully we have a good run of luck soon and start getting our shelved shares |

I also don't understand how they rate the PDUs. some of them say like max 16a?

I guess I didn't really look hard enough at first it does say 240v on the furnace. I was looking at the other thing on the plate
it says 208 - 240v (120v ground) 60hz
So, short answer is no, you can't run normal 120V stuff on this circuit as it doesn't look like there is a neutral. All is not lost though, you still could put a couple 240V PDUs onto one of those circuits. As I linked, you could pick up a couple of cheap managed PDUs for $100 shipped. Any modern PSU can handle 240V and will be more efficient that way anyway. ok I've seen a few PDUs for cheap on ebay or craigslist. I've never used one before. how does it work? do I run the two 240v wires into it? or do I need to wire up a 240v plug??? I made the one for our dryer, so I've done that before. just not sure how they work, |

btw the scary circuit is going to the range

plate on furnace:  breakers on furnace:  wires going into furnace:  |

what can I do with the wires running into the furnace to be able to plug in some normal 110 plugs into it? is there something I can do myself?
Can you post a picture of the furnace nameplate? If there is 3 conductor cable running to the furnace, it's physically possible that you could be running at 110V. It would be extremely weird though. Often what you will see is that you'll have the element run off 240V at high current, and then lower draw items like the fan motor and the control systems will run off one of the 120V legs. ok just a min |

Nice definitely sell it on eBay and get your money Yeah and find out that the POS who buys it runs it for 28 days and then files claim with CS and you get your miner back loose the shipping AND the month of mining. eBay just made it ez'r to scam sellers with their latest "30 DAY MONEY BACK GUARANTEE", F@ck ebay. Anyway GL. mark auction as no refunds Marking the auction as no refunds still doesn't help. The buyer can still open a case through paypal and ebay. As long as the buyer responds and returns the item, then ebay/payal is always on the buyers side. This has happened to me and there are plenty of complaints from sellers about this. doesnt' seem profitable for anyone to mine for 20 some days with one piece of hardware, unless its a sp30 or something... so the guy would go through all the trouble to get 10 bucks from an antminer for a month or something |

Those two 50A breakers with the black and red wires are two pole 240V breakers. You should be fine to run a 50A 240V branch circuit off of one of them. What gauge is the wire going into it, 8?
That panel is scary as shit though. That 40A breaker looks like it has 12/2 running into it, and it's using the white neutral as one of the hots. If you're ever doing a major reno, you should think about redoing a bunch of your wiring.
yea I won't be doing any reno on this house its really old. this is the first house I bought about 6 or 7 years ago when I was 24. my furnace says 110v right on it. how can it be fed with 240v? I need more info. |
