1400W APLUSPOWER AP188A 1400W Power supply for Bitmain Antminer S4 120V-240V

[DJSniperwolf]

Bought a couple Bitmain Antminer S4's, both of which suffered bad hashing boards.  In the midst of troubleshooting and repairs, I have an extra Power supply.

New to the Forums, but I do know the Value of the Power Supply.  Tested in perfect condition and boots up my S4.  Escrow will be required

Located in California, US

Thanks!

So comparing pricing it looks to be anywhere between 100 - 169. Unless you go for something you could also used at 24.99. My opinion. I would try 130 shipping included any see how it goes. I would also post some pictures with you username and date in the picture to gain some trust you have the item. Maybe suggest escrow as well. Since you have no trust and are using a new account.  I know OgNasty does pretty well in his escrow services. Here is a link to his profile. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=18321

Hope the information helps!

Which PSU's are these?  The O ring terminal or the PCI connectors?  Different batches had different hash boards.

How long were these used before the boards went out?

I am interested.

[MCHouston]

PM me if your still selling

I am interested

Just fyi ... many of the S4's hashing board problems are due to these specific psu's.  They overtime lose the ability to maintain the constant output to power all boards.

Absolutely,  I was just taking pictures and I will upload them now.

From what I gathered, this is revised from the original power supplies that shipped with the Antminer S4's.  These provide the required wattage to the hash boards without drops or fires lol.

Sorry I didn't see this.  They are the 6-pin.  In fact they saw very little use, it was a replacement to a power supply that is also good.  I only had the unit running about a week before the 2 hash boards crapped out on me.  Not sure what exactly happened to them, it was the Power fault symptom, tested multiple power supplies (3 to be exact lol) unplugged hash boards and everything came to life.

Hope this helps.

Yes, even the upgraded ones ( so to speak).  There are two models but both have issues.  I don't mean to persuade anyone but do some research.

Update on this.

For those that were/are having issues with this specific power supply. 

Please be sure to check the rating of the cord you are using.  Most cords for Miners/Computers are rated at 10A.

So:

10A X 120V = 1200W Max to be supplied through the cord, yet this power supply is rated at 1400W

This will lead to overheating followed by melting and burning up of your power supply and miner.

So PLEASE!

1.  Use a dedicated 15A Circuit if possible.
2.  Be sure the cord you use is rated to a minimum of 12A, any less is a fire hazard.

I Recommend running this on a Dual Phase 240V Circuit, as it supplies a greater load for more miners on a single circuit, greater efficiency, no power supply heat up.

These are Datacenter grade power supplies meant for Servers.  Some servers will run two of these in a single machine for failover/redundancy!

Be safe everyone.

You still interested in selling these?

[DJSniperwolf]

You still interested in selling these?

I sure am, need to recoup some costs.   I haven't obtained a shipping cost yet, but that is not an issue.

[MCHouston]

I ll offer $60 a unit plus I will cover the cost of escrow through TomatoCage and provide shipping labels.

[DJSniperwolf]

I Still have 2 left available for sale if someone is interested.  Just returned from visiting with family so they are boxed up and ready to go.  Escrow will be perfect and covered by buyer along with shipping costs.  I will provide tracking once they are sent out. Thanks.

[MCHouston]

What are you asking for them?

[DJSniperwolf]

The last one I let go was for $100+Shipping, I can most likely work a deal if shipping both of them together.  Just to be sure, they are the 6-PIN ATX Connector, not the lug. It's Pretty odd, when searching online, usually only the lug-style comes up. Thanks.

[MCHouston]

Yeah their for the old ones, or guess I should say older.

I will offer $160 for both and I will provide a shipping label.  You can send first, or if you want escrow you will have to cover the escrow fee.

[DJSniperwolf]

Merry Late X-Mas.  $170 its a deal.  If that works for you, please PM me and prepare the label though I am not sure of the weight of them.  I can get that if needed though if you already have the weights, etc, then that is even better   I can get them out to you as late as tomorrow evening.  Thanks again.
