$650?

I'm in for 2.

Phil, you might want to clarify the power supply is the wall wort for the Pi - not a PSU for the Avalon.  Unless you're including the Avalon PSU in the $650 price, which would be unbelievable.

a power supply = a wall wart for the rasp pi

Just a tip. If you are using ATX power supply to power your miners. You can build yourself a custom cable from a free AUX connector on your power supply to power the raspberry PI. You just need a 5V and a ground.

Phil you have run these before right? How do they compare to say running a SP20 from a power/heat perspective?

Just deciding whether to get get 2 or 1 to replace my two SP20

I'm not philipma but I'd like to chime in since I have both sp20 and a6. To me, A6 offers a perfect replacement opportunity for SP20 from power/heat perspective; my sp20 runs around 1.3 TH consuming about 800 watts, while my A6 runs around 3.5 TH consuming around 900 Watts. Heat wise, they're about the same. So, for about 100 watts more, I'm getting 2.2 TH extra over the SP20. Sound wise, A6 is quieter, but I did replace the A6 stock fan (non-delta) with a Sanyo Denki Ace fan which in my ear produces more pleasing sound than the stock fan in my SP20. A6 is a perfect replacement for an SP20. The build quality is similar. Both SP20 and A6 units exude quality from the moment you open up the box they came in. I'm planning on replacing all my SP20 Jacksons with A6 as soon as I can.

This  is pretty good description.

I have 11 Sanyo Denki Ace fans from this order

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YOC80IO?

I will give  8  away (keep 3 for me)  as  they fit in the box and are superior to the stock fan in version 2.

Add me to the list for 1, it's time I add a current generation piece of gear to my collection.  The price here is right, it's less than the S7, and I would rather support Avalon than Bitmain.  I am looking to start hosting gear, this might be a good piece to start with.

I assume you will contact us with payment instructions?  Thanks, Phil.

check your pms:

send it to my group buy adress
If you can send by Thur  12pm - 2 pm Eastern standard time
It should be good.   earlier then that is also good. I plan to send funds to blockC at 5pm eastern standard time.  thurs.
Once I send them to blockC,   I no longer can refund it.
BlockC prefers that I do one send for all of us.

Okay waiting for mikestang to send

@ mikestang   please remember to check that a proper fee is sent.


I will close this at 5pm  today east coast time.

we have a stalled  tx id

which may delay the send a bit.


https://blockchain.info/tx/c87e4705aa8667819e62f6557b41c2a45ad0c39d309e09e2cbc0331b35b4a781


since blockC want one send and now the wallet has coins not confirmed we are stalled.

I will ask around how to fix it.

once again why no one should ever use antpool or anyone that does empty blocks.

please remember this. 

 And there has to be way to fix a bad send (feeless)  other then me asking pool owners to add in the bad (feeless) send


this send was an armory send  so if you have armory check your settings.

@ mikestang   please remember to check that a proper fee is sent.

Sorry for being the last guy to send payment, I am on the west coast and my bank didn't open until 9AM, then I had to wait for my btc purchase to go through.  I sent the funds and added extra fee to get them confirmed quickly and they made it on the very next block.

But it looks like we have an unconfirmed tx so I guess I'm not really last.

I have not sent you my shipping address, please tell me how you would like me to send it.

Thanks!

And the great state of California wins for most orders!  We tie our west coast cousin Oregon for number of units ordered.  :)

Thanks for handling this, Phil, can't wait to play with my new toy.  I'll pull my psu off my S5 and get my extra 850watt out of the closet, plug them both in, and mess with the A6 when it arrives, but at $0.30/kW-h and up I will be having it hosted for the long-term.

Waiting on tracking from Yan of blockC

He has been sent coins.  a shipping pm and an email pm.


I will post updates as they come along.


Lastly the fee less block cleared so we are all good.

I laid the coin out for that so blockC has already been paid.

If any one has armory they need to look out for this.

I got around the delay by shifting  all the funds but the stuck ones and then added my own funds to cover it.

I am glad I found it and did that  instead of sending unconfirmed coins to blockC

No worries I caught it before I did the send to blockC.

I had coins in other wallets did all the shifting sent it and then your funds cleared about seven hours later.

I was surprised you send did clear with a fee of zero.

Most of the time that would not clear.

By that I need to get the seven to my house test and ship them out.

Since three of those seven go out of the country. I really want to be sure I am shipping working gear.

So if I do another it will be no sooner then Friday next week.

I am in the process of testing your unit .
I swapped the stock fan with the sanyo ace fan.

The rasp pi works
the little adapter dongle works.
here it is mining

an alt coin PPC

note dna is your serial number
three temps are good
first is the inside control card it should not exceed 45c it is way under that
second is  one board it should stay under 70 c well under
third is second board and it is well under 70c
I am under clock via freq
I used freq 250
I used fan at 22
I have fan rpm under 3000 pretty quiet
lastly  volts are 12.2 this is the safe high number.

 Thanks again Phil you rock!  :)

1 item has been dropped off to mikestang

...

Mikestang    are on trucks and out for delivery today--------------1 delivered!

Mine was dropped off just before I left for the morning.  Unfortunately it looks like my box took quite a hit in transit, luckily it's double boxed with lots of space in between filled with peanuts.

http://i66.tinypic.com/ejirnt.jpg

I unpacked everything and the miner and the pi seem to be undamaged, I will know for sure tonight when I set them up to test.  I have two questions:

1) Are there set up instructions anywhere for this unit?  I'm sure they're easy to find, I just haven't had time to search.

2) Could I buy one of those fans from you, Phil?

Thanks again!

I just got mine. UPS did its usual job, no major damages to the shipping box, nothing got broken inside. After unboxing, I noticed somethings have changed since my last purchase. The dongle thingiemajigie is different, it's not as elongated, seems more solid, sturdier, the 4pin cable is shorter, a lot shorter but thicker and sturdier, the Raspberry Pi is encased in black not white. I can't see to find the ip address of the RPi, is this not dhcp?

Anyways, I love the Avalon 6, they're much better made than its competition. Bitmain S7 maybe a best selling but that doesn't make it a better miner, they're shoddily made. To me, Avalon 6 is a steak, Bitmain S7 is a McDonald hamburger, I mean that, in terms of build quality.

every rasp pi from this order found an ip  .  i used my router to locate them.

 the dongle is different. it is better built. like you said.

when I plug in the rasp pi

I searched for it with a mac  ip search program found it and called it up

@r00t$  Shipped via ups ground
Due Monday

@biffa
Shipped via usps priority express.
I owe a postage refund to you.
I want to do a rant on the U.S. Post office.
But the simple explanation is I was unable to send it global express.
Even though the website said the two closest post offices to my home would let me sent it global express the first post office said we do not have any forms.  They have not been shipped to us.
So I drove the the second post office and while they have forms the computer system said sorry only
Priority express for tue.
At this point I said okay. It was about 90 used cheaper.
It is very well packed and has been fully tested.

@
Hagssfin

Yours is sent priority express should arrive on weds.

I reshipped all packages sent to me
Jmumich FL 2 UNITS    UPS
R00t$     IL 1 UNIT      UPS

Biffa     U.K.  2 UNITS USPS
Hagssfin FINLAND 1 UNIT USPS


And block_c is drop shipping to tlhiwli on Friday .

I need to get some parts for home repair so I will get back later today for sending tracking numbers.


 TRACKING HAS BEEN SENT TO EVERYONE.

this means from feb 19 to march 30  diff will be pretty flat   about a 162 avg.

Wow... I have a winner!  The Avalon 6 that arrived today easily hits 3980GH at 12.2V at the supply (only 12.1V in the UI).  I'm actually a little afraid of it being so far on the high side and I'm considering turning it down!

As for the next buy-- I'm going to pass.  I'm done buying hardware until the halving.  I'm probably overspent on hardware as it is.

How much do you want to send two fans instead of one (one for this A6 and another for the A6 from the previous group buy)? 

I wasn't going to bother with fan swaps since I have them in the garage right now where the noise doesn't bother me, but I may still be mining with them indoors this winter and $7 really is impossible to beat.

these are the fans.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YOC80IO?


How much do you want to send two fans instead of one (one for this A6 and another for the A6 from the previous group buy)?  

I wasn't going to bother with fan swaps since I have them in the garage right now where the noise doesn't bother me, but I may still be mining with them indoors this winter and $7 really is impossible to beat.

Let me figure what it cost me to send to TN

region flat rate to you is 9 bucks for 2   so send 9 usd to

1JdC6Xg3ajT3rge3FgPNSYYFpmf53Vbtje


https://blockchain.info/address/1JdC6Xg3ajT3rge3FgPNSYYFpmf53Vbtje


I will mail on monday.


I lose track of group buys.

 so did your first fan have a delta label  and your second fan  was a black no name?


or did you get 2 black no name fans?

The delta fan is a good fan --------- came with the first group buy-- if you have this leave it alone



 the sanyo ace is close to it --------my replacement for the second and fourth group buy

 the black no name is loud and not that good -----came with the second and fourth group buy.

 


Note the third group buy was never done=  due to crazy diff jumps

Please do another group of avalons!!

I'm furious I missed this one.

The one regret i have with these is my particular unit will only perform to spec if feeding it a platinum rated EVGA and believe me I used 2 Corsair AXi's both 1200 and 1500 versions neither seemed to ever consistently push those all important 12.v

If I power my A6 with anything other than this EVGA 1200 Platinum it usually starts strong and by 4 to 6 hours in it's dropped down to 11.8v and by 10hours...forget it.

It's down to 11.7 or 11.6 and I'm avg 2990Gh/s it's weird.

I guess it might be due to my inability to provide it with a 220 outlet?

Whatever the convenience of the 4 PCI-Es and the dramatic noise level difference are really appealing in comparison to my pair of S7s that squeal like Victoria Azarenka in a 3rd set tie break.

Honestly I can hear them half way across my house.

Phillipa please pm me if you get the go ahead from your contact for another round.

Thanks in advance ;-)

No I don't I have yet to get a new price.
I wonder if the 602 price for the s-7 has caused Yan to not be able to compete with it.
I would think he need to go under 600 like 550. They may not want to sell that low.

Very interested in what Kilo17 ad Yan have to say. I am more interested in the efficiency along with the quietness for home mining. Doesn't hurt that I mine with Kano and it seems like the Avalons work well on that pool! Hopefully we hear something soon. Thank you Phil for getting this together!

I would think that if anyone ran one of these A6 miners, especially with a new fan, and compared the (lack of) heat and noise that come off it versus an S7 (or even an S5!) they would not think twice about buying the Avalon 6 over the S7.

As to noise, with the new fan I cannot hear the miner in most rooms in my house, it is very quiet.  Quieter than my S5 or S3.  For the past several days I have seen 3.3TH with ~985 watts at the wall, very nice.

Default on the Avalon 6, at least how it showed up to me from Block C, was 500 freq and I have not changed it.  I set fan min. to 40.  I am honestly shocked at how quiet and cool it is compared to bitmain products, and how it uses less watts at the wall than expected.

The Avalon 6 gets .3 watts at the wall with a plat psu.

So I am pretty happy with that number.

The batch 8 to batch 13 s-7 do about .31 watts at the wall with a plat psu

The old batch 1 to 7 can do as good as .239 watts at the wall with a plat psu.

But I only have one of them a batch 2.

For quite a while I didn't know what the big deal was with minimum fan setting that is frequently discussed.  On the firmware that came from BlockC mine ran fine with the default value of 20 without any issues at all.  That said, I recently updated the firmware on the rPi and now I see what the big deal about the minimum setting of 40 is all about.

The newer firmware version has a lower temperature target of 68C instead of the 75C target that the November BlockC firmware has.  With the new 68C target the fan rather quickly wants to spin up to a higher RPM to cool more but it doesn't get to the necessary RPM before the hash rate starts throttling.  Once that happens my miners drop from 3800 to 3200 and the fan goes back down.  Rinse and repeat.  Setting the minimum fan to 40 fixes the issue and everything stays in the 3800 to 3900 range where it belongs.  Everything just works-- no winding up and down and/or dropping hash rates.

I've also observed that for some reason the fan speed appears to affect the voltage reading in the UI (on my revision 2 miners anyway).  When the fan was spinning at a low RPM (<40) on the old firmware the reading was always high (12.10V-12.15V on the multimeter = 12.2V in the UI).  With a minimum fan of 40, the voltage in the UI perfectly tracks what my multimeter says (12.0V=12.0V, 12.1V=12.1V, 12.2V=12.2V).  

Overall these A6s are just plain boring (and that is a good thing).  They run perfectly steady at the same hash rate for weeks without touching a thing.  I'm so used to my SP20s where I was always tweaking things and grabbing the hair dryer whenever one failed to restart after changing a setting (or during one of their own random resets).  The A6s are just too easy to maintain (like I said-- boring)!

My new Avalon 6 started acting up since yesterday. Hashrate goes down and it starts up again, looks like it's cycling from full hash to no hash and repeats. At the pool, my hash rate looks like regular waves, instead of a straight line. How do you troubleshoot it? Currently, I'm running it at frequency 400, corsair rm1000 psu.

It's a perfect add to my setup, I'm now mining with total of 14TH/s.  :)

Is 1000w enough? Perhaps the psu is causing the wave. Have you tried a different psu like 1200 or 1300watt?

I partly agree with you.
There is a decent distance from the wall, even though not a great one.
I have tried to use that Ant S2 another way but results were not that great.

go back to freq 500 fans at 40 make sure air flow has no restrictions.

examine all the rm1000 cables make sure they are tight and not melted.

this gear is very voltage sensitive.
but freq settings other then 500 can do truly weird shit.

my guess for you is go with a freq setting. 500 fan 40

next the three temps   are like 38 70 70   the first number is the inside controller when it gets  to 44 or 45 it does a reset.

check that number see how close it gets to 44 or 45.

I do not think a 1000w psu is enough for an A6 (although I believe the A6 with downclock itself based on available voltage), mine regularly sees 1000w at the wall.  You don't want your psu % usage to be more than it's efficiency rating, i.e. a gold psu should only use 80% of it's rated power at max. continuous load, at least that's how I've always operated.

Otherwise, the "hash in waves" phenomena is exactly what mine was doing when I had its exhaust flow too restricted.

next the three temps   are like 38 70 70   the first number is the inside controller when it gets  to 44 or 45 it does a reset.

check that number see how close it gets to 44 or 45.
Thanks to all the good points raised by y'all. After about 12 hours of hashrate going back and forth, it had settled down around 3200+ GHs as was expected for freq 400. I just replaced my corsair rm1000 with two hp server psu's, each rated at 800w @100v, should be more than enough for an A6. Yes, it's an overkill but I had the server psu's laying around doing nothing. Per your suggestion, I'm setting at freq 500 and fan 40. does it matter I have Sanyo Denki Ace fan? Anyways, I'm setting the fan at 40 no matter what fan, need clarification from more knowledgeable member.s

I use two 850w gold rated OCZ psus for mine because that's what I happened to already have on hand.  Overkill like you, but better than not enough wattage as the psus will run more efficiently at lower load.

I have the Sanyo fan, too, and am using 40 for fan.

yeah I figured there was a delay. 

kilo17 sent me a pm he is going to get  price for the next group buy and give it to me late tonight.

So when he does I will open the next one  in the morning and then close it out on Friday.
Its a plan. I am  hoping to do it that way.


Did we ever hear the price on the new group buy?

I'm interested in 1 avalon 6.  Can I power it with the EVGA 1300w PSU that I have?

   kilo17 told me he was going to give me details today.


 I guess he got too busy ,  he has a day job that can be demanding.  Possibly holidays not sure.


I don't want to send him endless pm's asking for new pricing.

Hopefully he will get back to me. The gear has arrived and works.


also  either fan stock or sanyo ace can be set to 40 speed.

they move air almost the same but the stock fan is faster rpm and really loud.

I received my fans today.  Thanks!  They will come in handy in the fall when I bring the miners back indoors.
