Bitaxe Hex 703 Died After 4 Months of Non-Stop Mining – What Killed It?My Bitaxe Hex 703 ran 24/7 for 4 months… then suddenly died. In this video I do a full diagnosis, voltage checks, thermal imaging, and try to figure out exactly what went wrong.I cover:
Power supply testing
Fan header overload theory
TPS voltage regulator issues
What a dead short looks like on thermal camera
Half the ASICs pulsing while the other half are dead

Should I send it off for repair or is it toast?
