Title: Anyone still Running A1 miners? Post by: Theebard on November 22, 2015, 10:23:44 PM A1 miners must be the most numerous around and I was wondering if anyone was still running there's even though they are a little high on the watts/gh side of things.
I have a couple of technobit Hex miners still running as they are very reliable. Title: Re: Anyone still Running A1 miners? Post by: adaseb on November 22, 2015, 10:28:52 PM How many Watts/GHS did they use?
Title: Re: Anyone still Running A1 miners? Post by: Theebard on November 22, 2015, 10:34:51 PM ive got two
HEX16C which is about 16 -20gh @ 24watts and a HEX8A1 Which is down clocked to 118g/h @ 132watts Title: Re: Anyone still Running A1 miners? Post by: megatron1337 on November 22, 2015, 10:36:02 PM How many Watts/GHS did they use? coincraft A1 they are made by a company that went bankrupt. 1th/s 1000W 28nm asic chip you are better off with an S5.

Title: Re: Anyone still Running A1 miners? Post by: sidehack on November 23, 2015, 12:16:16 AM I got a pair of Dragons going, mostly for heat in the apartment and office. They're close to breakeven and fairly quiet for 1KW. Rather have a half dozen S3 but you know, beggars can't be choosers.
Title: Re: Anyone still Running A1 miners? Post by: Theebard on November 23, 2015, 12:30:39 AM I got my hex's for free so there only running at an electric loss but its winter so they help with the heating and something to do.
I wouldn't mind an s3 but the noise and electric costs might annoyed me. I manage to hide these hex miners in the PC milk crate :) Title: Re: Anyone still Running A1 miners? Post by: sidehack on November 23, 2015, 01:02:42 AM S3 is one of the quietest miners ever, and run about 30% better W/GH at stock than most A1 machines. Mine's throwing fits or it'd be in the laundry room right now spitting out toast.
I do have another A1 board on the museum shelf, I forget the numbers exactly and never turned it on. Little 5-chip thing. Title: Re: Anyone still Running A1 miners?

Post by: sidehack on November 23, 2015, 03:43:30 PM I never had more than the one, unfortunately. They rolled out about the time I stopped being able to sink funds into buying new miners. I bought that one from Minersource last fall, mostly as impetus to get bobsag's attention so I could remind him about a bunch of gear I was owed.
Title: Re: Anyone still Running A1 miners? Post by: MCHouston on November 23, 2015, 03:54:02 PM I have several Bitmine Coincraft Desk V2's. They are mining away at 1Th+

S3's do make good heaters. I turned on 12 of them around my house over the weekend I can say they are nice and quiet and the house is comfortable even with the houses main heaters off. Title: Re: Anyone still Running A1 miners? Post by: RadekG on November 24, 2015, 02:36:16 AM I am using 2THs Dragon miner at 0.67V@1.2THs with around 0.6W/GHs. I replaced all fans with quiet Sunon Vapo bearing fans. It is very quiet and efficient miner.
Title: Re: Anyone still Running A1 miners? Post by: notlist3d on November 24, 2015, 02:55:03 AM I ran a Dragon 1T and later a Dragon 1.5T. I eventually sold them off to lower priced electricity people. They were tanks for the most part, besides PSU's on some of LKETC some crapped out.
I did not think I would ever sell my 1.5T it was like high 40 pounds is i remember right. But I actually sold it and was able to ship for decent just was a little slower mail due to weight. Both were great miners for me. I'm hoping Innsilicone has some A3's someday so we can see a next gen of them. |
