I am.

I hadn't thought about the possibility of running this at 240V. Hm...

The newer miners like the s19 needs to run on 240v

Most miners certainly do, for sure. It's just that 240V split phase is not the same as 240V single wire used in the rest of the world. I guess that's why the PDU is a thing. Geez, that's... Annoyingly sketchy.

You're already beyond my expertise hahaha I didn't know theres a diff between 240v single wire and split phase. I don't actually even know what that means.

I just figured you just install a beefier breaker in the main breaker box and run a lower gauge wire which can handle 240v.

Yep. 220 in the US is two legs of 110 with a common. The breaker will even have two switches tied together.

Ahh ok that makes sense. I had someone come install a 220 for me in my garage and it was 2 breakers tied together.
