Do you know of any good tutorials to lower the power usage and/or upgrade the fans? I have an older S9 that sounds like a jet.

Yeah I’m down for that too. On the lookout for how to deal with the noise and potentially not having a 240v outlet.

Single board s17/s19 will run on 120 if I’m not mistaken.

S9 runs on a normal 120v wall plug

Yup, I meant for the S19. I remember seeing someone getting it working.

Oh sorry, comment threading sucks on amythest 🙃

Yeah I've heard it's possible but haven't tried. I don't see why it wouldn't work so long as there isn't any sort of undervoltage fault breaker built in. Undervoltage will simply put a cap on the max wattage you can run the machine at. It'll affect efficiency as well though.

I did these mods to my s9 miners.

It's basically whisper quiet at 800w.

Thanks, this is what I was looking for. Need to make a compilation of these types of tutorials. 🤙

Tbh 👆🏾 is probably all you need. It's all pretty straightforward.

The hardest part is replacing the fan plug adapters (bitmain's plugs have the nubs in a different spot). It's easy if you get a pair of needle nose tweezers. I use these - super super useful for so many applications. I use them almost daily for various things around the house.
