Title: [WTS] Raspberry Pi Zero mining setups with accessories
Post by: Biodom on March 02, 2016, 06:41:42 AM
Two kits are available (just one or another):

Basic ($59 in bitcoin, shipped within continental US as priority mail):

pi zero
mini HDMI to HDMI adapter
micro usb to USB adapter
5V 2A pi-compatible power supply (checked to work)
usb-to-ethernet adapter (Kanex)
8gb microhd card with Noobs and cgminer-gekko-rev2 installed

Extended ($109 in bitcoin, shipped to US; shipping cost more here because of the box size):

Basic package  plus
Plugable usb 2.0 7 slot 60w powered hub with each slot capable of at least 1.4A
Four port non powered usb 2.0 hub (Sabrent)

Explanation: pi zero does not have hdmi, usb and ethernet, just micro usb and mini hdmi.
nonpowered hub is needed for ethernet to usb, mouse, keybord and powered hub connections.
you connect sabrent to pi, then connect powered hub to sabrent

I don't have to sell, just decided to do some spring cleaning.
the only thing that is missing to do some USB bitcoin (or SHA-256 alt) stick mining is the stick miner itself (Gekkoscience-available from retailers)
Arduino does not have usb-to-ethernet adapter in comparison with the basic package.
