 This is so f'n cool! I'm running a single S19j Pro hashboard on an S9 power supply on a standard US 120V outlet!

All possible thanks to Zack Bomsta's Loki board!

A used S19j Pro feels like a sweet spot right now for a modern-enough miner at a relatively cheap price (~$8.25/Th; mines at break even around 11-12¢/kWh). But it pulls 3000W from a 240V line that most US households don't have.

But with the Loki boards, you can DIY one S19j Pro into three separate miners / space heaters. Each running on their own old S9 power supply which won't overload the typical 15A household circuit.

So now I can just plug in a ~35+Th/s miner in the coldest room of my mom's house!

 Ok this is fucking cool. What did it overall cost to make?

 How are the fans controlled in this setup? Are the default S19 fans still on and connected?
