So what are my options for using the Block Erupters? If I leave them overnight, can they be damaged by overheating?

There's no point in using them, they make something like $0.00000048 a day.

I don't mind, I'm running an experiment.

<p>From the <a href="https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer/blob/bfgminer/README" rel="nofollow noreferrer">README</a> of BFGminer, I see:</p>

<pre><code>The totals line shows the following:
 6/32   75.0C | 171.3/170.8/171.2Gh/s | A:729 R:8+0(.01%) HW:0/.81%

Each column is as follows:
  The number of devices and processors currently mining
  Hottest temperature reported by any processor
</code></pre>

<p>I don't see the temperature column.</p>

<p>Does this mean I have the incorrect Windows drivers?</p>

<p>Does it mean I need to pass a parameter to BFGminer?</p>

Your temperature is 75.0C

Does BFGminer halt processing if ASIC miners reach a high temperature?

From the [README](https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer/blob/bfgminer/README) of BFGminer, I see:

```
The totals line shows the following:
 6/32   75.0C | 171.3/170.8/171.2Gh/s | A:729 R:8+0(.01%) HW:0/.81%

Each column is as follows:

  Hottest temperature reported by any processor

```

I don't see the temperature column.

Does this mean I have the incorrect Windows drivers?

Does it mean I need to pass a parameter to BFGminer?

Not all miners return temperature information, it's only shown when available.
