I love the setup. Can you tell a little more about your cooling? I'm interested in knowing what looks like a wooden exhaust at top?

17 Ant S1's running stable from home. I anticipate I can add 40 more with no issues (but will probably start to pick up some s3's as well).
For a number of reasons I constructed a 3 sided 'double-pane glass room within an air conditioned glass sun room I use as a home office. I have an exhaust fan which dumps heat directly outside and use dedicated 240 circuits to power the ants. I can expand by tapping 2 additional 60 amp 240 services I recently ran for AC and a non-existent hot-tub. The sub room remains at 'acceptable heat as long as the main room is kept to a max of 90 F. Directly cooling ant-miners is a loosing battle and costs $. My experience is that the only way to run lots of ants together is by dumping the heat outside as quickly as possible.

Exhaust fan is installed! Waiting for the variable frequency drive to wire it up.

Just finished the Antminer Hood H1. Running a couple Habaneros at 1.4TH/s combined down below as well. I love the setup. Can you tell a little more about your cooling? I'm interested in knowing what looks like a wooden exhaust at top? It's mostly heat removal - I'm sucking in outside air to cool. I'm mining in my garage, and pre-hood ambient temps ranged from +15-20 over outdoor temps. I threw the wooden hood together from scraps of OSB in the workshop, even the screws are reused. It's got a 6"x12" furnace vent box on it that feeds into 6" ducting. There's a 400cfm in-line blower sucking the hot air out. It's changed the difference (so far) to about +10 over outdoor temps. Yesterday it kept the garage cozy at 80*F, outdoor temps were 70*F. Today we jumped up to 82*F outside and I rose up to 90*F ambient, I did forget to crank the blower up to 100% though, I'll try again tomorrow. Without the hood I would have been above 100+F. I'd need more CFM and possibly 8" duct to remove 3500watts (12000btu), that's if it was all in a sealed cabinet. I'd call it functional, but a band-aid on what is ultimately my problem - heat leakage into the environment combined with not enough fresh air coming in to offset the inefficiencies. When my other ants come, I'll try to seal it up a little better, but the total cost was $12 for the vent box and about 30 mins of assembly - not a miracle, but a small win so I'll take it.

Thank you for such detail I appreciate it! I'm been looking at different heat removal ideas for my miners to try to decide what to eventually build, I appreciate you sharing results.

Some pictures of our mining rig Do not you have enough money from your pre-orders to buy some PDUs? Hope you don't burn the warehouse with all the rigs inside... This is one lame and unprofessional setup from a H/W manufacturer...

This is one lame and unprofessional setup from a H/W manufacturer... Took me a while to figure out exactly what you were complaining about. The yellow wires are ground, the breakers indicate the brown is hot, and the blue would be neutral. The terminals will be live. The terminal block is probably designed to go into some kind of enclosure. The point of entry into such an enclosure would be the logical place for strain-relief. I guess they can still pull a single machine out if they unplug at the box.

This is one lame and unprofessional setup from a H/W manufacturer... It's electrically correct for a 3-phase system even for north american standards. Why on Earth would you think they would use PDUs? they are limiting in a high power usage environment plus the cost is horrific compared to Rack mounted Switchboards. - PDUs Most PDU manufactures max rating is 32amps. Those miners are 1600w each. 9*1600 - 14.4kw per rack. At 230volts thats 62.6amps per rack. So 2x 32amp PDUs required.... Wholesale - 1k each atleast. http://digipower.en.alibaba.com/product/286438990-209769952/16_ports_230V_32_amp_IP_PDU_Switched_Monitored_power_distribution_unit.html- MCB's 1X Schneider Electric 3 Ø Main Switch will a Standard 64amp 230/240 Volt. - $122 from our local electrical supplier. 10X Schneider Electric MCB 10amp 230/240v breaker - $4-12 each. 1X Schneider Electric Inline watt meter - $26 10X IEC320 C13 Plugs (Jug Plug) - $1.2 1M Din rail About 10 bucks in flexi cable Roughly $220 bucks all up per rack, Thats 10 racks outfitted with Switchboard Mounted racks vs 1 outfitted with 2 PDUs. Logic ....

Maybe because it is safe? Maybe because it is more convenient? Maybe because every decent data-center uses PDUs? Anyway, it is your farm, your gear, your power:) My opinion is still the same, one lame and unprofessional setup. Oh, thanks for mentioning, also a cheap one. So lame, cheap and unprofessional.
