hello, before i made my S9 purchase i bought some S7 just to test everything and start learning

the s7 came with a  APW3-12-1600-B2 power supply

the thing is its acting weird

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Well do you have 240 volts?


You said you used anther psu what was it?


I assume you have 240volts.

The s-7 uses less power then the s-9

Maybe the psu is short power.


What psu does work for you?

If the miner works fine with another PSU then yes the PSU is failing.

Since I take it you do not even have a voltmeter to verify what the voltage out of the PSU is the following must be said:
Unless you work with building/repairing power electronics and know what you are doing DO NOT OPEN THE CASE OR ATTEMPT TO REPAIR IT YOURSELF!! Lethal voltages are present along with possible serious arc-flash hazard.
