Title: Lurker hoping to buy AS USB Miner
Post by: Ties42 on May 04, 2013, 03:02:45 PM
I rarely register on forums, I'm more of a lurker type but the announcement of the USB miner from AsicMiner this morning pushed me to register. Got a few BTC and I hope to get out of the newbie forum so I can catch about 10 of those in a group-buy when they pop up. We'll see what happens. Now back to lurking but with a username at the top.

Can't find much info on these miners... Have they priced the units yet?

There are currently 2 USB powered mining devices that I know of. ASICMINER Block Erupter USB (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=195004.0) and     
Avalon Asic chip Mini USB miner (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=196281.msg2040708#msg2040708). The ASICMINER USB is currently in production, while the Avalon USB is still in design. Check out the Custom hardware forum (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=76.0) to join group buys to purchase units. You should always read all the terms of the group buy before committing to an order. 

>300MH/s powered by your 500mA(2.5W) USB power. Cost 1.99BTC each with a min. order of 300 from ASICMINER. You need at lease 597BTC to order from them. Your best bet is to try the group buys.

Happy mining,
