I'd be more interested but it's not clear how much hashing power a Gridseed 5-Chip USB Miner (200 pieces) delivers...

I'd be more interested but it's not clear how much hashing power a Gridseed 5-Chip USB Miner (200 pieces) delivers...

What I got from ... a friend that is running them since a few days ...

is 10 pieces run out of the box around 2.8 - 3.2 Mh

after some software overclocking (with newest firmware) he got them to around 3.5 - 3.6 Mh

this is more or less like the gridseed chip is specificated. 60 - 70 KH/s scrypt only ... mode ...

Quote from Gridseed email:
"Due to our limited manufacturing ability and high domestic demands, we only take oversea order over 200 units,
The price is as following:

200-999 units: 160 USD/unit
1000+ units: 155 USD/unit

Payment before Shipment.
Moreover, you probably need a controller to get the devices going, we suggest you purchase 1 controller for every 15 devices. The price of each controller is 60 USD. For details of controller, please see http://www.diginforce.com/goods.php?id=37: "


Small chance, but hope you do better.

Depending on your final price, I'm in for 1 of 2 LA3M.

Depending on the final price too... would be interested in 10 uds.

It´s necessary controller board?
that more would be necessary to run rightly?
which includes the pack, only the Gridseed 5-Chip USB Miner?

Thanks and regards darkfriend77

Post by: darkfriend77 on February 18, 2014, 01:06:36 PM
Ok.

Short update on where we are at ...

I contacted Frank, waiting ...

beside that I activated a chinese speaking friend that does a lot of trading with china,

he will see how we can handle international transport to our favour ....


the conditions are probably around ...

200-999 units: 160 USD/unit
   1000+ units: 155 USD/unit
controller unit 60 USD/unit


I placed some orders in the last few days @asianbtc & @seeds for me to get hands on some devices as fast as possible to see what else is required to set everything up ...
... so by the time we will get our group buy done we will have everything set up that every one can start ... rightaway mining ...
... let's see if we can set this up ...


If anyone one has some good idears ... that would help in getting a faster type of communication with gridseed .. please contact me ... seems each answer takes 24h ++

Hi, interested in 10 + controller + accessories
How much is the final price for these ? (USD or BTC )


Title: Re: [GROUP BUY][EU + CH] Gridseed 5-Chip USB Miner (200 pieces)
Post by: david123 on February 18, 2014, 03:14:05 PM
I'll take 10 or 20 pieces + accessories, depending on your final price.
I'd prefer local pick-up wherever the taxes are lower (so I guess switzerland).
BUT:
Can you please elaborate on your plan how to get them into the EU? I read that
they are still 2-3 weeks from putting CE-marks on them, and there is no legal or
reliable way to get them here without these signs, right?

I order them to Switzerland, so as I know I will not have this issue.

Die CE-Kennzeichnung ist Voraussetzung für das erstmalige Inverkehrbringen (oder Inbetriebnehmen) von Produkten, für die eine CE-Kennzeichnung gemäß nachfolgenden EU-Richtlinien gefordert ist, nämlich in allen Teilnehmerstaaten des Europäischen Wirtschaftsraumes (EWR). Der EWR umfasst die EU-Mitgliedstaaten und die EFTA-Staaten mit Ausnahme der Schweiz. Damit ist beim Inverkehrbringen in der Schweiz die CE-Kennzeichnung nicht gefordert. Es gibt vielfach spezielle Konformitätskennzeichen, die CE-Kennzeichnung nach den EU-Richtlinien wird jedoch anerkannt.

That's cool, I didn't know that. Still the "spezielle Konformitätskennzeichen" might pose a risk,
but I'm rather optimistic now.

Interested in up to 50 pcs + controller depending on your final price (when possible including micro mini usb and power cables).

How many miners can 1 controller board handle in total? I have a 49-port hub ready for mining.  :)

As I understood it, 1 controller = max. 15 miner.

The miners use miniUSB not microUSB cable


How many miners can 1 controller board handle in total? I have a 49-port hub ready for mining.  :)

The controller is a slim linux box, which spawn a minerd instance for every miner detected, so I'm pretty sure 15 per controller is not a maximum. CPU load may be a limiting factor.

I am also interested in 10 of these, want to pay with BTC.

Just have a noob question. Is it simple and safe to connect them to the device in the picture below as I am not sure what this is for.
I have just been GPU mining on Windows so far, so dont have eny experience with ASICs. I read that all manuals are in Chinese, which is not very helpful for me.
