Checking reviews on PSU's brought another point - if it has multiple 12v rails (like the e-Power ones do) - check the wattage rating of them. Case in point, a 1500w e-Power one I saw has 6 rails - but each has a max rating of only 264w (12v*22a) and the blades need 300w each or more...
Really looking like multiple supplies is gonna be the easiest way to go.

Hey guy's Why are you so silent? As long as you getting the units i am eager to see some honest pool speed chart + power consumption? Any One That was the top AMT secret kept away from us It is about time truth to be revealed

Would you know how to retro-fit this kind of a supply to work ?

Also if anyone received a kit that actually included instructions,would you please scan said instructions, if they aren't a myth that is ;-)

SO I can pull up AMT's web interface but it's not recognizing the modules.
I keep looking at the CG miner logs and get a cgminer not connected page.
plug direct into the pi at start up with a hdmi and usb keyboard log in to the pi with u root p amt then type killall cgminer. this will stop the mining process then type cgminer -DT this will give you a massive list. better if you can putty into the miner then you can scroll back up but basically the info displayed will be a load of numbers and at bottom of each section summat like 8 chips with 250~ cores. if you get that its working ok. and that value should be repeated per card. then jus type cgminer again and input pool details you get the old fasioned cgminer layout so you can see card stats

Sounds like this should simplify things.

if It is possible just buy additional Rapi and split your setup . the goal is always to use common ground from SINGLE PSU and never mixed PSU's grounds
Thats what I was hoping for out of the kit when they first brought up the idea, then they could have just sold modules as upgrades. I was thinking about running them independently in a few rooms. Spread that heat out.

With all the power supply issues, one should be able to split up their modules. What hardware do I need to set up an additional rig?

Agree here. With all the power supply issues, one should be able to split up their modules. What hardware do I need to set up an additional rig? [/quote] presumably a new pi and interface board plus another backplane. if you have a 1500w psu you should be ok for 5 boards. iv been running the 3x boards on a 750w psu so far but off to buy an 1100w today see if this improves the voltage to the cards as one seems to drop low. although having a good tweak made all cards go active with all cores showing 250+/- active cores its too much for a 750w

If they provided some of that documentation into their original post or into a webpage on their site, that would go a long way to addressing some of this. The other concern you mentioned in packaging was the bubble wrap...hopefully it was in some static protective wrapping....between the packing popcorn and the bubblewrap static discharge can be a real problem that can cause other issues. I will take pictures for my unboxing as part of my review. Want this to be an honest through review. Hopefully my experience with the unboxing/shipping will be better. I am expecting a tracking number today so hopefully I see something.

Hi all This morning i recieved my amt miner kit. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) off to buy a psu for it today. ill update with performance and power usage as mellorbo and regtable have a temp gauge and volt meter. we should have the kits running and tweaked hopefully by tonight

Once again, no hard evidence of anything. Just a bunch of hearsay and more delay tactics.
As for Phin, he's officially SOLD OUT.
1. Drives 12 hours and doesn't go to the assembly plant 2. Says AMT and the miners are legit and hashing away (we dont see any of that in the video) 3. Doesn't prove much, other than his word is worth about $5000 (or the cost of a miner)
I suggest everyone file against AMT and forget about receiving their vaporware miners. Even if they can get them out the door soon, why would you want to continue supporting Joshua/AMT?
I think we should put them out of business while recouping our investment.
YOU ARE NOT A CLIENT NOR A CUSTOMER - WE HAVE ALSO BANNED YOU FROM PURCHASING OUR MINERS. OH DEAR GOD. WHATEVER WILL I DO??? I know...in the future I'll buy from companies that aren't run by retards. if you have not purchased anything from amt why are you here? i know i would have better things to do with my time than sit and troll a page i have nothing to do with FAN BOY NOW ARE WE :-P no not at all but why waste time trolling a page where you have no need to be in?
