it sucks balls to drop that kind of coin on a unit that arrives in near dead condition. Of what I can see ascu has the highest failure rate of computerized mosfet units. Followed only by the raptor.. probably why AWS packed up shop.. though I can only speculate on that. The guy who designed the raptor I believe started up BTC and is the one behind specter and chimera, but those units have far better reliability so far.
I sort of remember somewhere some time ago I read that the design of the v1 ascu was lifted from the cheetah since it's open source. They went and changed a bunch of bits on it (to create higher margin) and bob's your uncle there you go, parts that are rated for lower power or just parts of lower quality were used to build them... but I don't think anyone has done a proper autopsy on one of them to find out why they're so fragile.

I was really hoping there was some simple thing that was wrong and not the actual mosfet itself, I guess I got to swallow the hard truth that I must've bought a lemon and this kinda stuff just happens. I'm at a lost of words on how disappointed I am. Shame, now its time to shell out a MOSFET for a customer, LOL
