Same thing I was wondering...

My apologies in advance if it's not appropriate to post this here:

Hi Zach,

Thanks again for all of your hard work, Sir.  VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!!!   Grin

I sent a 0.1 BTC donation to you a little over a month ago.

I thought it was time to send another 0.1 BTC to you.

Because of the amount of hash I have, I thought it was appropriate to send what I did.  However, others may not be able to afford as much based on their hash.  

ANY AMOUNT would be helpful to him everyone.  ANY AMOUNT!  Even if it's a dollar or euro.  ANY AMOUNT is helpful.  It adds up....

Thanks again, Sir.

David

EDIT #1:  Anyone not using CKPool Monitor ought to try it out.  Here's the forum for the monitor if you have questions or suggestions:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1331875.0

EDIT #2:  Same for you Kano and CK.  I sent the same to you Kano.  Have a decent bottle of wine on me.  I don't see an address under CK's posts [In his signature].

EDIT #3:  Found your address, CK, thanks to another pool member.  Have a decent bottle of wine on me and thanks for all you and Kano have done and continue to do for the pool.

EDIT:  I have enough hash to send you what I did.  However, others may not be able to afford as much based on their hash.

I SECOND THAT MOTION!!!

You had me concerned for a moment with the crying faces.

Does this mean what you said?  Bit minter has a "stale" block or we have a "stale" block?

Like someone else said,  DDOS means, "Find another block."   

The pool was down for a moment.  I'm sure kano will give an explanation shortly.  Try it again.

Where there is a will, there is a way.  I know you can figure it out if you were to do something similar but with the IBM 2000 BB PSU's.

IT IS UNREAL how much it helped with the temps with the rigs on the right.  They were managing to pull hot air from the mining closet into the intake fans before I did this.  I had to run the fans at 100% and the temps were still between 65 and 72 C.  And that was with them under clocked from 700 MHz to 600 MHz at 4000 GH/s.

Now I have them back at 700 MHz and the fans manual to 50% with the temps ranging between 45C and 54C.  UNREAL HOW MUCH THIS HAS HELPED.

Hi Everyone,

I've been a busy man today.  I completed the easiest side this evening.  I have the hardest side left to do.  Here are some photos to let you see what I'm up to:

I covered the back side of every piece of Fire Retardant Drywall with aluminum duct tape.




Here is a photo of the back side.  I took a close up photo so you can see the back side covered by aluminum tape and installed.




Here is a photo of the front side.  You can see I cut places open to allow the IBM 2980's to breath.




Another photo to allow you to see it is running all the way up.




I need to do the left side now.  It will be more involved because I have 6 shelves of S7's to do the same way I did the right side

And you are now officially on "ignore" status.

It is a proposal to be voted on in March.  The place will be available in March.

EDIT:  Would you hate to sign your name on something, only to find out a few weeks later you will not get 3 cents per kWh?

Again, I'm NOT trying to be difficult.  I only want to KNOW what I'm getting into without something hanging over my head.

Why should I bother with giving my personal information if the burden of proof is on the customer?  I'm the customer.  I would hate to drive over 2,500 miles with my belongings and rigs in tow only to find out I will not pay 3 cents per kWh but a little over 5 cents per kWh instead.  I can get 4.5 cents per kWh in Texas.

Would you mind finding a post by the PUD stipulating the moratorium is applied to the entire space of a building even though it is divided into multiple units?

We are paying you a "finders fee" of $1,000.  Will you, "The Finder" provide this information to us please?

I'm not trying to be difficult.  I just think it's important to know.

The article says the following:

The moratorium was later refined to only “high-density” applicants WHO'S BUSINESS WOULD USE 250 kilowatt hours of electricity per square foot of space per year, but less than 5 average megawatts overall. Users of more than 5 megawatts need a power contract with the PUD.

Since it says, "WHO'S BUSINESS WOULD USE" instead of "WHO'S BUILDING WOULD USE," I would have to be cautious.  I need to find out more from the PUD before signing my name on the dotted line.  Can you tell me what PUD it is?  Is this Chelan or Douglas?  I need to know so I can call them.

Your thread began with the following advertisement that indicates "1,000 feet":

Are there 2 separate meters?  One for the location next door and one for this location?

How are we to be sure the PUD uses the square feet used by the "metered" space or for the entire building with multiple meters?

What I'm about to point out is NOT to create an argument.  It's not to put anyone in a negative light.  I'm simply creating discussion in the forum to make sure all members of the bitcoin mining community are protected and KNOW what they are possibly getting into.  I too am interested in the place.  

HOWEVER, BEFORE COMMITTING TO THIS LOCATION, ONE MIGHT WANT TO CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:

This is the most important paragraph of the following article:  http://www.govtech.com/dc/articles/High-Capacity-Data-Centers-Blindsided-by-Increase-in-Utilities-Charges.html

Urged by staff, commissioners agreed in December 2014 to impose a moratorium on all new applications for large amounts of power — 1 average megawatt or more — to give staff time to study how to handle a potential spike in demand. The moratorium was later refined to only “high-density” applicants whose businesses would use 250 kilowatt hours of electricity per square foot of space per year, but less than 5 average megawatts overall. Users of more than 5 megawatts need a power contract with the PUD.

Now here is the math:

400 Amp service in the location.  If one uses 80% of the 400 amps to be safe, this would be 320 amps.

320 Amps x 240 Volts = 76,800 Watts OR 76.8 kW

Your demand would be 76.8 kW per hour x 730 hours in a month = 56,064 kWh in a month (730 hours)

56,064 kWh x 12 months in a year = 672,768 kWH

Now, the paragraph wants us to divide the 672,768 kWh in a year by the square feet of the location.  The square feet of the location is 1,000 feet.

672,768 kWh divided by 1,000 square feet = 672.768 kWh per square foot in a year.  THIS IS MORE THAN THE 250 kWh OF ELECTRICITY ALLOWED.

Again, this was NOT to create an argument.  I'm not trying to become enemies with anyone.  I'm simply trying to create discussion to determine if it is worth it or not.

I'm actually interested in the place and I have requested an application to fill out.  However, I'm not following through if I find out it is in Chelan County.  It is sounding more and more like Chelan County may have to be avoided like the plague.

Best Regards,

David

EDIT:  I think, for starters, we need to know the location or at least the county it is in.

I've got to shut my rigs down to cut a couple of holes in another door in my mining closet for grilles to be placed in the door.  It's to set up the rest of my rigs in it instead of their present location in my old small mining closet.

I'll be shutting down within the next 30 to 40 minutes.  They should only be down about 5 to 10 minutes...  Hopefully...

Thanks!

I was curious.  Just wanting to make sure no one up to something mischievous.
