I cycled a circuit breaker last night. That caused both of my S3s to not hash when they came back up. The fan in the S3 is running, but it does not come up.
The power on sequence goes like this:
Red light flashes for about 20 seconds
Green light comes on for a second - at the same time the network link lights come on
The red and the green lights go out at the same time. The network link lights stay on. The fan stays on.
They do not respond to ping or login attempt.
Each is on a 750 Watt Corsair PS and the whole lot is on a surge protector.
Did I kill them?
happened to me. check the dns. Did they reset to factory setting ip address? If you are running two or if you have a different ip address base you would have trouble getting to them. |

Need inputs & advice please,
How much watts when it comes to power supply that can power 1 Antminer S3 and how much Amp in 12v rail does it need?
I have 5 antminer S3 and planning to buys separate power supply for each.
Thanks & Regards,

It needs about 30 amps on 12V but I don't think it's a good idea to have a separate power supply for each. You will end up with 5 power supplies (450-500W each) and a mess of cables, while you could get one 800-850W and one 1200-1300W PSU and put 2 and 3 miners on them respectively. |

So 1200 watts is good for 3 antminers S3. Actually my problem is here in Saudi they don't have much supplier when it comes to PC and all they hay is 400w to 500w PSU, but they have a 1300 watts platinum but price is overkill. Anyway I have not made any decisions yet, any advice on brand if ever I go separate power supply? Thanks, |

Corsair is fairly good, not sure what else is there in that range. Edit: technically 450W is sufficient if not overclocked. |

...........
Did you set them to DHCP or manual IP? Try one at a time, also try to connect to the default IP. Failing that try to reflash the micro SD card, you may have killed that. This is the Antminer S3, and not Antminer S2. There is no micro SD card. |

Did one of you get one of those S3 delivered to France (or elsewhere in the Euro zone) ? How much taxes did you pay ? Winter is coming and I could use 350W of constant power inside my home, which would make the ROI a bit better. You pay import VAT which is the same as your local VAT. So in case of France it's 20%. |

I found Corsair CX500M 80+ Bronze...is this good enough to power Antminer S3 (24/7)? |

I just got my 2 S3+, they are actually worse than my batch 6 S3
I have overclocked my first S3 to 243,75 MHZ and 250 MHZ,
I can't get the S3+ working above the standard 225 MHZ
they promised th S3+ is better as it should normally be, but I see this is worse !

Use EMS for shipping. You will have lot more chances to get it without VAT and custom taxes (I got 2 S3 last week without VAT/taxes). If you are not lucky, +20% for VAT, 2.5% for customs. Something near 80€ |
