Title: Anyone Know where I can Buy Antminer S2 Board. HELP
Post by: Stinkey on June 14, 2014, 01:06:05 PM
I just got my new Antminer S2 5 days ago, and one of the boards is faulty it works for less than two hours and then stops.   Only way to get it to work is shut down the whole unit..   But pointless as less that 2 hours again its stopped. 
My Questions,   is it safe to leave the machine still running.
Is there any contact phone numbers or other emails address to contact Bitmain.  I was emailing a few days ago but since I sent them some pictures no replies?   Must be a holiday over there..

Next Question Can I purchase a new board from someone or somewhere,


Thanking you in advance

I think first of all should be to contact the manufacturer, if this is not possible, you should buy a timer, power off once every hour, so more savings investment.

I have exactly the same issue, and haven't had any joy trying to get hold of two boards. My only thought was to buy a timer plug & get it to switch its self off every  hours then back on again a minute later?

Let me know if you have had any joy in getting a replacement board?
