Hey Canary this is off topic but why is it that in China they have to get an exporter first and then lead to an DHL tracking. Always wondered why don't they just take it DHL direct and get the tracking.
you do that anywhere in the world if you want to concentrate on your business and don't wish to deal with shipping yourself. you pay someone else who is an expert to do it for you so that you can concentrate on your core business. companies do it all over the world, not in China only.

I'll go out on a limb and say that DHL doesn't have the appropriate exporters' licenses to handle it, whereas the other companies are better suited to handle it. quite the opposite is true. DHL rules the world in international shipments outside of US. fedex and ups can't even clean DHL's shoes outside of US. most people in US have no idea this is the case.

Does anyone see any issues with using a 850w psu for 2 cubes on high?

Per what I have read, that should be fine. I am getting 4, so I am going to hook 2 up to a 1000w and 1 to an 850w. Then I am going to split the last one with a 6pin from the 1000w and one from the 850w. I would like to keep a 200w buffer on both PSU's.

I miss Airborne xpress (sigh). DHL bought them then threw them under the truck. They always beat fed ex and ups for speed in this area. Remember the ol days when you could order at 2:30am from mac connection and get it later that same day !!! == I think the shipping issue in china is "Payola" induced.

FWIW, there should not be much problem with you running 3 cubes on a 1000W power supply... In theory anyway.

ive read that these pull around 360W each when on the high setting.... no point in smoking a 1000W PSU running 3, just put each one on a separate psu..... 500w are cheap these days....

Anybody with experience running BFG as stratum proxy on a Rpi? I was using slush, but wanted to make the change. Any shared tips/faqs/gotchas appreciated.

If you are using minepeon you can just have your startup settings as follows.
#!/bin/bash /usr/bin/screen -dmS miner /opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer --http-port 8330 -S all -c /opt/minepeon/etc/miner.conf
Then point your blade / cube to the RPi's ip and that port. Thats how I have my stuff setup at this time.

I am 99% sure I know the answer to this, but I lack the self control to not ask: any luck on getting the DHL tracking number yet?

280W at high speed according to the documentation. Not sure where the 360W number is coming from. Any shipping updates Canary ?
