Questions:

1. How many Standard (hashboard only) units can be managed from the Full package (controller) unit? I already have one full package unit which I ordered in Batch 1, and have two standard hashboard-only units on order from Batch 2. I want to know if I could manage a third standard unit from my existing controller unit, or is two the maximum?

2. I am currently using the Futurebit PSU in Turbo mode. Is there a significant advantage to upgrading the PSU to achieve 3.8Th/s or does running the Apollo BTC at this level dramatically reduce their lifespan, and cause them to overheat?

3. On the basis that the answer to question 2 is Yes, can anyone recomend a PSU that can power three Apollo BTC devices (one full package unit and two hashboard-only units)?

4. Is there any news when the Batch 2 Units will reach Europe?

Thanks in advance.

Can anyone tell me how to get audio to output via HDMI, if this is even possible? I am using a KVM switch and audio is sent to my speakers via HDMI for the other all the other connected devices devices connected (Windows PC / Raspberry Pi / MiSTer). I can't find a way to get audio to output through the HDMI port.

(PS Unrelated - is there a way to search only this thread on this forum? I can't figure out how to do it.)

Is there a way to turn off the flashing red status LED? I find it constantly flashing on my desk really irritating. Could it not be updated so that it only flashes during start up, or if there is a problem, and turns off entirely when everything is functioning normally?   (i.e. node + miner both running okay)

Thanks. I did see something in the release notes about the swap file being increased for future lightning apps etc. Does that get installed when update via the web UI?

If I want to upgrade to the latest update, is the only way to do this to reflash the MicroSD card? Will doing this factory reset the device, so that I have to setup the miner from scratch again, and resync everything?
