My folding name is the same as my Freeper ID - LanPB01. My PS3 currently shows the running process should be done in about eight hours, and I've entered the proper team number.
Do you have any information on how safe it is to leave the PS3 running for long periods of time? It's my understanding it should be as safe as running a computer, but I haven't found any definitive source for the information.
The PS3 draws about 180 watts when idle, and about 205 watts when folding. During testing for the F@H PS3 beta testers left some consoles on, running F@H, in a closed cabinet for months. No consoles died from overheating at all.
If your electricity is clean then you will have no problems.
There is a procedure to make sure F@H restarts when you restart the console. I'll find it and post it.
