Title: R4 in Hand looking to sell.
Post by: Evan on August 07, 2017, 01:00:13 AM
Let me know I have an R4 that Essentially I'd like to keep but I've been asked by the home owner to have it removed. Let me know if anyone has interest in the unit.

Where are you shipping it from? and how much are you asking for it?

This the same R4 you mentioned something to do with fire in the "Hardware" section of the forum?

Its going up on ebay at 10am EST with a buy it now of 2100. Best of luck Batch 4.

On fire were Bitmains words for initially describing its over heating, and I used their term to dramatic effect. The inner heat sinks are slightly discolored from heating. The plastics on the connecting pins melted/became brittle depending on what set you look at. It was sent in to bitmain and completely repaired. Fault was attributed to bad temp sensor.

Its been running fine since its refurbish by bitmain. Verified with bitmain that temperatures are within acceptable tolerances. I also have a T-probe in there that will show down the PSU if it gets overly warm
