This is my setup of 3 S1 outside of home in garden.  They locked in TV cupboard with additional cooling:  All 3 drawing 1100w from the wall. Im using corsair CX500 psu Extra cooling is made by adding 2 extra fans from old PSU. One blowing in and one blowing out of cupboard:  Temp of miners on average no more than 40c So all looks like that:  |

As per post im using 3 Cx500 from corsair. Temp inside when i locked no more than 40-45c I will make extra cooling when will receive more s1 soon. This setup is working like that in this condition for 4 days without fail. |

Good thinking. That was my plan. Plus the noise of fun is 0-ZERO Fire hazard if any is outside not inside house. So everything planned as possible. |

Hot weather maybe? Hot weather is not a problem. As probably to summer all miners will be sold and replaced with more powerfull unit. |

^sha-256 besides bitcoin are all basically worthless and impractical to mine. Personally, I am planning to mine with my antminers until the bitmain price is in the 1BTC range, then trying to sell them around 1.3-1.5BTC since that seems to be the appropriate markup here is my rig - 2 antminers and required PSU(s) per crate, plus another antminer on the table behind it.  |

Wait let me get this clear... You are waiting for the Antminer price to drop to 1BTC so you can sell yours for 1.3BTC? ? |

Interested in this thread.
Would like to see mods and upgrades that provide better cooling and make it quieter.
Anyone building some kind of rack/housing/mount setup?
I've been brainstorming the optimal placement of the miner and psu that provides best cooling/compactness/modularity.

http://imgur.com/6kuGiczVersion 1.1 of the AntRack, has ~36 ants on it. Still not 100% happy with the airflow and cabling, but its getting closer.

questions about spacing between miners.
People who have the miners close, are you noticing a lot more heat, than keeping them separate. I'm in the process of designing my rig. I currently have 3 right, and I'm picking up 2 more next week. So i'm trying to get an idea of the spacing. Thanks
