...it'll depend on what Novak implements but we've talked about doing fan control ... can be given a curve or profile for thermostatic control and run the fans based on that ... the controller would have a default profile and you could, probably through cgminer, push a custom profile if you wanted to do something a bit different.

I think hacking the firmware should be unnecessary.

What kind of power connector you will use for the pods?

I'm feeling a bit cynical this morning, so I choose to not answer that question but instead tell you that information is already present in this thread. In fact, every question about mechanical, electrical and interfacing attributes of this pod have already been answered. Just gotta look for it.

Any idea if the chip coolers on the Bfl singles would work or know if they fit a certain socket.  Looking to build the
Bfl Pod possibly. Wink

No, but I guess I got one on the museum shelf I could pull a cooler out of and see if it meets spec. My assumption is "probably not" but that' just an assumption.

In the end, are you going to get your hand on that stack of cooler you mentioned you could get? I'm guessing people might be interested in buying it packaged with the pods for ease of setting them up.

Some people probably already got their coolers planned out but it might be a handy 1 stop solution for others.

If you would that would be cool.  There's a local guy that has a ton of them and if I can get them at $20 a piece I would have a case and
possibly two coolers as well. Roll Eyes

I'm still talking to the current owner of my surplus of Freezer 7 Pro coolers. I have permission to use them on this project but am still waiting on a price.

Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

Putting your weiner in it voids the warranty.

So there is a warranty?  Nice!  I'll be sure to clean it real good before I send it in. Wink

Because I posted a picture from the movie Pod People a few pages back and it has subconsciously stuck in your brain.  Cheesy

Should we get some news this week on your test pods or will it be next week?
Overly anxious for some info.
