The Canadians are:

HerbPean and Valkir

I will test gear today.

@ HerbPean and Valkir how are we getting your gear to you send me a pm telling me what you want to do?

Pikachuy Cali has a running machine all good.

BigRedButton Oregon has 2 on the way due Monday

Sidehack/sabercatt has 4 on the way due Tues

So far 1 dead four pin cable and a suspect blue adapter. fortunately I am daisy chaining my 3 so I will send my blue adapter to PPOC when I ship to him.

I need cold weather as I am running 3 and PPOC has three = 6 or about 6k watts which I can do in the winter.

Oh I learn a thing about about my pdu's :

left side 4 plugs has a 20 amp fuse
right side 4 plugs has a 20 amp fuse

so don't put 4 psus on the left or the right do two and two

Lowes had replacements lost time with that.

Phil do you not have a way to exhaust the heat outside? So you could run more

Well If I want to run 6 avalon6's from now until May 1. heatwise

I can do it..

I have two pdu's and 2 30 amp 240 volt circuits. each can do 30 x 240 x .80 = 5760 watts which is :

1 IBM 2980 watt psu on the left side fuse of the pdu the dual 2000= 4000 psu on the right fuse of the pdu

that would be 26 amps if the dual 2000 = 4000 pulls 18 amps with 4 avalon 6's and the ibm 2980 watt psu does 8 amps running 2 avalon6's

with two circuits I could double that power wise but not heat wise.

I am going to be running a 60kwatt solar farm-------- maybe in the spring . I will be supplying gear and another forum member is building the site on his land. His business is solar installs and I leave that part up to him.
I sold him 1 s-7 and I have the 3 avalon6's soon to be more.
I also have

1 ibm 2880 watt psu
3 ibm 2980 watt psu
1 dual 2000 = 4000 watt psu

right above is 17kwatts in psu's

I am doing the big thread on finksy, j4bberwock's breakout 240 volt boards.

So I am moving slowly to have my house free of miner other then sidehack's compac sticks

Hey Phil,

The Canadian's units didn't start a fire ? Cheesy

Valkir should answer your pm during the day. He didn't have access to a computer yesterday.

He will confirm my proposal.

Thanks for all Phil! I did send you a pm Wink

Okay a few last photos. give me a bit of time
Every avalon box is placed in a foam peanut pack box

plug n play from power wart to avalon6
you will need a psu that does 1200 watts
you will need an ethernet cord for the rasp pi

all small parts in here

then bag in here

then lid

Awesome! Cant wait to receive mine! Grin

Got my two units today all accessories included and well packed. Another happy customer once again.

@ BigRedButton good I am glad they arrived.

4 should come to sidehack today.

Last set of photos. Note do not do a setup like this biggest reason is it is not code.

This is for 1 week to 8 days.

I am hosting 3 units for PPOC for about a week.
So running them in my HT/den with the modded 2980 psu was not working.

I made a l6-30 p to 15p plug------------ not code!! but safe since no kids or pets

I attached a yellow 10 awg power cord to it.

ran the cord to my 90f sauna the attached garage is now 90f not code!! but power cord is 10 awg and not kids or pets

three avalon6's

open the door to allow for cooling with the really cold weather this needs to be opened about 1 hour every 8 hours.
note the black power cord it goes to the ibm psu

the ibm is under the moving blanket

the insulation board allows air to the stock fans.
lastly my ibm 2980 can not run 3 avalon6's it overheats considering it is a 3.1kwatt load I get it.
so 1 avalon is ½ ibm 2980 and ½ evga 1000p2 you can see it in the photo under the ibm

okay I have some info on the usps mailings.

all machines I tested have an altered password the password is not root
pm me for your passwords

3209 to Maryland should arrive today - the smokingman

2977 to Pennsylvania should arrive today - kipper01

2577 to Florida is close maybe today or tommorrow - xleejohnx

2953 to Massachusetts is close maybe today or tommorrow- borachinua

all small parts in here remove the yellow bag gently

then bag in here

no worries .

was fun to do. but it will be a while before i do it again (wife is very tolerant but...)

after running a lot 10 and now 6 . rasp pi's get warm they may get flakey above 90f.

so keep that in mind everyone.

lastly

1 dead four pin cable

1 dead blue adapter.------ I had an extra one on hand

1 flaky rasp pi - could be the 90f garage .

pretty good results.

@ kilo17 are you ready to take avalon6 orders now?

and could you send me

A four pin cable
A blue adapter
A rasp pi.

thanks phil

Mine is up and working. First impression is it is quiet.

Thanks to everyone who put this together.
