I believe I've found the exact power supply model that BTMine is using based on these images and it appears to be rated for 90-264v input, which means these should work fine on standard 120v outlets in North America. I know a lot of people were wondering about this. The pic looks more like 170-254 to me

bobsag3 already confirmed that the bundled PSU does operate on 120VAC earlier in the thread. Quality of it, however, is still questionable.

I would have to say the communication given the time change has been very good. They responded to emails and pm's at times they should have been sleeping.
Is there a good explanation of what plugs need to go where for people who purchased them without PSU's?
I saw the pictures someone posted earlier but not totally sure about the lower board plug configuration.

Weren't those PSU's modular? If so it's just a matter of unplugging the psu instead of the boards, right?

It looks like the units ordered from the 6/7 went out on the 11th their time which was yesterday. So you should have a tracking number in 2-3 days when it hits dhl. Then delivery time.
As people get them please inform us of total lead time.
Also, why bother spending an extra $100 on a PSU you don't know much about when for $50 more you get a real PSU from newegg ? Like I said I don't wanna burn my house down

How many blades can the modules support, 3 or 4? What is the paypal price for a rig with max blades?
Don't care how blades the case can hold just the max number the modules can support.

Not very impressed with this guy. I ordered one of these 5 days ago. Was promised it would ship within 2 days, still no tracking number. Wonder if they are using are machines to mine bitcoin for themselves before they ship?

I also ordered on the 6th (probably on the late side), got tracking today. Later than I want, but I've been monitoring things and can understand a day here and there.
I think folks are awfully gun-shy with all the scammers everywhere else. The shipping here has been discussed (shipping out in a few days, 2 days to HK - where it gets DHL shipping number, then arrive). I think a day-ish for the time difference and anything unforseen, and we're still on track. People are jumping the gun, IMHO.
It seems that perhaps the initial promise might have been a day or two over enthusiastic, and I don't think people understood the ship-out time and the time-to-HK-for-DHL-tracking. But still, c'mon people. We already saw folks get stuff quickly - it just doesn't seem nearly as quickly when we're waiting for our own stuff...

I bought mine 7pm est time jan 6, hoping for a tracking number soon. Im pretty confident btmine's product will deliver. Just don't see why sellers don't just say 1 week shipping time, if that's what it's gonna take.

Got my tracking (1/6 order), looks like it just left Hong Kong on its way to LA. Was hoping to get this early next week, and it looks very possible at this rate.

I ordered on 1/6 and received my tracking number from this thread. Checking DHL, it looks like my two units were released from customs in LA today. Given that I live in CA, maybe I get them on Monday?

I would think if they were having great success in getting these out the door they would advertise that a little more to grease incoming orders....and to keep current orders happy

i would feel much safer, if they would change from "will be shipped 1/11/2014" to "shipped 1/11/2014"

I forgot the exact reason, but I was assured I would get my tracking number Monday, and perhaps my package in the mail just as fast due to their delay on getting tracking numbers out. I would also feel better though if the thread was kept up to date better and more response/explanations for the delays and changes in schedule as originally advertised. On the other hand, I am please with his communication and prompt answers and updates when I have inquired.
