1  Bitcoin / Mining support / Avalon 741 only hashing at half rate on: January 11, 2018, 02:07:33 PM
Looking for some help troubleshooting a 741 that’s only half working.

I’ve tried multiple power supplies, all on 240v.  2x 750’s, single 1200, may have tried 2x 1200’s but I don’t remember. Tried it in a chain with others and by itself on its own controller.  Also swapped in another 741 exactly plug for plug and it works fine.

I haven’t measured voltage at the miner yet, but on the breakout boards it was reading either 12.4 or 12.6   however accurate that is.
Both boards light up green.  I haven’t taken it apart, but from what I can see of the power connectors there is no damage or bad solder joints.

I received it second hand like this so I’ve never seen it working fully.
 
I see several differences between this log and the logs of working miners, but I haven’t been able to find how to fully decipher the log.  Maybe I don’t know what to search for.

Thought I’d look for some guidance here before taking it apart to look for connections that may have come loose during shipping.  Seller claims these units were tested, but I won’t get into that here.

Do I have one dead board?

Ideas?

2  Bitcoin / Mining support / Would you bet the farm on aluminum wire? on: December 06, 2017, 09:01:15 PM
Hi everyone! 

First post and an electrical question.  I know, talk to a qualified electrician, and I will.  Seems like there are a lot of knowledgeable people here and I wanted to hear your opinions.

I want to power 3 Avalon 741’s on a single 220v line.  There is a 10ga ALUMINUM wire run maybe 40-50 ft to the main panel.  Nothing else on this line.

This place was built in the early 70’s and aluminum is what I have to work with.  It’s in a mostly finished basement and I don’t have a way to run a new line.

Capacity charts tell me 10ga AL is good for 25A.  I’m planning on putting a 20A breaker in the panel and a L6-20r on the other end.  I have a PDU that has 15A breakers for each of the 4 outlets.  Should be enough power for these three machines.

I understand most of the issues with aluminum is at connections so I will have to find breaker and outlet rated for use with aluminum.

Service entry wire is usually aluminum, right?  I know the A/C, fridge, freezers, etc. have been used in this house for decades, but I’m just worried about this continuous 24/7 load.

What do you think, good to go or will I have a BBQ?
