One of my 6 S3+ that I ordered a couple months ago stopped working, time for warranty service. Turns on but red light stays on, reset button doesn't work. Able to log in to interface.
Which firmware you are using? Have you updated it from OEM? Try a firmware update if you are with default and try again. Also check your internet connection to the miner.

I think that I would like to set one of my S3 to solo mine just because.
What is the code or changes to the user interface is needed? When I try to enter my node IP and port, username, and password, all I get is 'dead'. I think that I need to add the "--btc-address [address]" option but can't via the normal S3 interface.
I'm running a full node with:
server=1 listen=1 rpcport=8332 rpcuser=user rpcpassword=pass rpcallowip=192.168.1.200

you could always save yourself the bother and use http://solo.ckpool.org?

I full realize that I have very low chance of finding a block. I have a S3 going solo. The chances are 304,002,695 GH/s / 475 GH/s = ~640,000 of finding a block. Or about 1 in 315 per current difficulty. Since I paid ~0.5 btc for the miner the USD cost is very low. That is actually just a night out at the casino

Try to hook up debug port and see what's going on. It's simple tx-rx uart-ttl attached to console. tx-rx-gnd from top to eth port. I've managed to use this debug port to recover from failed wifi setup.

Like many other mining enthusiasts no doubt, I have migrated from S1's to S3's and now have S1's gathering dust. So what to do with them? They are undervolted and lowered frequency using 150watts at 128Gh. Running costs are £0.50p per day each. They run almost silent. l intend using one per bedroom to warm the room up and maybe point them at a solo pool.. you never know your luck or l could stay with my usual pool and then the running costs drop to £0.10p per day.
As an aside I have 6 S3's all providing heating. It's winter here in England with outside temperatures ranging from 0 to 10C. One S3 is in the shed to keep the place from freezing, 3 in the lounge hidden in a corner.. the temperature there now never drops below 22C.. and 2 in my study which keeps it comfortably warm. Fan noise is not a problem having replaced all fans with much quieter ones.
I too have undervoltaged S1s (8 of them) and S3s (5). They're all in my basement and help heat the whole house. We live in Ohio and have a quad-level home. Current outside temperature about 36 F, keeps basement at about 78 F; 2nd level at 72 F; third level about 69 F; and 4th level at about 65 F. The bedroom we sleep in is upstairs and prefer the cool temp so works out great. Making about 1.5 BTC a month. I check the electric bill each month and compare to the BTC made during same period and will continue running as long as still making money. Furnace hardly runs at all so also saving on natural gas bill. Noise not a problem because of location.

In Jan next year my electric costs go down 10% and with bitcoin value creeping upwards it looks as if S1's will again start to earn their keep. At the moment they are just breaking even so effectively l get free heating. I'm happy. I only ever did mining for something interesting to get into.. and if l earn from it that's great. No other interest l can think of gives me a return although l stand to be corrected on that!

This thread is ridiculously long, so this has probably been answered but I'm not sifting through that many pages. What is the proper PSU wiring for overclocking? Is it possible to power with two PSUs? One at 500 Watts and a second at say 150+ Watts?

You can use two power supplies as long as each board is connected to only one PSU. I.e. one PSU for the left side, another PSU for the right side is ok. Better yet, get a 600W+ PSU with 4 PCI-E connectors and you'll have less clutter.
