OC'ing question:
With Antminer S1 being overclocked to 393.75, what is the typical full power draw at the wall? I've seen numbers being reported anywhere between 400-500w. With my setup 500w might be borderline (each 1.5 ants on 750w corsair 750M)
Did anybody here measured the power draw?

I haven't OCed yet due to the overabundance of caution, but getting close to proceeding either to 375 or 393.75

Does anybody here wants my 1st public batch Neptune? If you are serious, PM me an offer in BTC (preferable) at Bitstamp price or bank transfer. I don't have to sell, so don't come up with lowball offers, please. I am in US, and will still keep my second Neptune order for now.

Depending how old-if you have at least OSX 10.6.8, then you can download inet from the mac store. it cost $7.5, but shows all ip's on the network, both wired and wireless. See my post a few pages back how I set up wireless hashing for ants using airport extreme and airport express.

Where in US can you buy LTC for $$? I opened an account on Kraken, and it says that i can only trade cryptocurrencies pairs.
I would really appreciate the info.

When do you think we might get news re technical characteristics? This week or next? Shipping dates, hosting options?

I found 4 pins, thanks. Sounds really interesting, much obliged. Isn't this fan rated at 45dba for each, perhaps a bit too loud, especially if you deploy multiple?
My whole setup currently generates 65dba; I considered it noisy and moved it away from my office.

Can you clarify "added in pull mode" and "connected to second blade"?

I see a single jack for the fan. Did you just replace the factory fan with the one you are linking? With less noise I can order a couple more ants...

I saw that someone say that one of the optimal configurations is to run 3 ants on two corsair 750M. There are enough PCI-E cables to do this and you can run miners overclocked (with enough power). I have this setup, but did not overclock yet.

While connecting to antminer from laptop via ethernet cable make sure to switch your laptop's wi-fi OFF. It did not work for me without this quirk.

It is both social and technical.
1. Technical-because bank software, apparently, is not set up to use any more decimals than two, hence a proposal to move to XBU (microBTC).
2. Second (social)-regular folks (not programmers or mathematicians) cannot easily distinguish between 0.0002 and 0.00002 when they have to pay. It is known that many numbers after the period are inadvisable.

The question is how to get from here (full BTC with 8 decimals to XBU-as an example- and two decimals for satoshis).

Oh, I am sure we will hear something in the next two weeks. At least technical details will be there, but as far as shipping is concerned, they will say something less clear, in my opinion. However, $3599/Th on April 10 from at least one competitor is a huge incentive for KnC to accelerate the rollout. It has to be above 3.66TH/Neptune (batch 1, not CA) at mid April to be competitive before some adjustment for probably 30% lower electrical costs, but adding costs for PSU and cabling.

As it stands now, i see that KnC fell under clouhashing spell and with large datacenters like datorhall or cointerra-supported cloudhashing, the only companies that  ostensibly support network diversification are, paradoxically, chinese bitmain and asicminer (will BA deliver on time-who knows?).

As it stands now, i am completely dumbfound how this all came about with KnC.
With no electrical, power, time of delivery and anything else on march 17, options are getting narrow.

I think everyone understand not to change a meaning of bitcoin, but the default wallet representation.
Instead of 3,012321 BTC it will be 3012321 microBTC. It would make sense to assign a three letter symbol to microBTC (XBU has been proposed).
in this case, wallet will read 3012321 XBU(microBTC). In a few years, once people get used to XBU (or some other three letter symbol), brackets and microBTC description will go away.
What is wrong with this?
I don't show this as my idea (it is not, of course); I simply bring some of the github discussion here.

So, what are core bitcoin dev planning? See github https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/3862.
Are we switching to 1 microBTC as a base unit (=100 satoshis) or what?
I think it would be cool.
Each 1BTC will become 1mil microBTC.
I say, skip mBTC (millie) and move to micro. This way, you only switch once.

For those who might be interested: my wireless hashing experience.
I had apple extreme wireless router, iMac and macbook air laptop. Initially ants were mining on the router to which I attached an ethernet hub (8 slots TP-link gigabit, just ~$20-25) followed by ethernet connection between each ant and the hub.
I started hashing with my 3 ants ~5 days ago, but having them in my small office was too much (noise and hot air) and I decided to use wireless.
First attempt: tried to follow limited instructions here, but after switching ants WAN from static to DHCP as was rec by someone here, I completely lost access to the miner and had to reset back to 192.168.1.99 by using that tiny button on the board (pressing it for a few sec).
Second attempt: i simply bought Apple airport express, connected it to power close to the router and followed simple instructions on screen in Airport utilities to make a wi-fi connection between Airport extreme and Airport express (Extreme is both a router and gateway in this config).
Router (Extreme) established a link with the airport express (router at 10.0.1.1 and express at 10.0.1.X), extending the wireless network. After that, I simply moved the Airport express to another (remote) room, checked the signal and then disconnected the ethernet hub from the router (Airport extreme) and reconnected it to the airport express (in another room). Upon ants connection to the hub, the hashing continued unabated after few seconds upon the power restart with NO additional settings adjustment (I guess because WAN setting on each Ant was static and it was not lost upon reconnect).

This is wireless hashing, but does not include adjusting any wi-fi settings on the miner or miner's wi-fi antenna (advantage-miners stay at a static IP that is fixed in WAN).

I think that proposal on github is a great idea.
It plays on psychology very well. You bought 1 BTC, but now you are a millionaire (in "new" XBT)
It will allow people to make small purchases of bitcoin without thinking that they are getting something fractional, which could be thought of as not valuable.
Of course, things will appear expensive at first: a cup of coffee for 5000 XBT, but it will change going forward, hopefully.
Then, institutions will trade "whole" BTC just like they do BRKA-A (at $183,914 a share)

They might not need an exchange and purchase directly from a large miner.
Steve Carlson boasted having 1Pth.
Here is another one-KnC datorhall:
http://organofcorti.blogspot.se/2014/03/march-9th-2014-weekly-hashrate.html

7.75% of the network or ~2.5Pth-should produce 280 coins a day (1864 coins is less than a week's worth of work)

Thanks, but as far as investment cost is concerned, all that matters is that I spent $640.
If bitcoin stays at the same price, I should get ~1BTC in 3mo, plus miner will have some (albeit small ) residual value.
If bitcoin rises, i will have good ROI in $$.
If bitcoin falls, then I would have lost money anyway whether I bought a miner or bitcoin.

It does not mean that I don't,
However, try to explain to anyone that they can buy 0.01 BTC and see their reaction.

"All Dude wanted is [to get] his rug back."

All i wanted since learning about bitcoin mining is to be involved in the process.
Jupiter was not available, so i had to decide between KnC and unknown entity-cointerra.
I put money on KnC and it was most likely a mistake. Even bigger mistake was to see a note regarding Jupiter's in December and waiting and waiting and waiting.
That was kind of low blow and almost everybody agrees on that.

Finally, I decided to order Antminer a week ago-it is noisy, only 180gh, but it cost me just $640, was delivered in 5 days, set up in a relatively few hours (due to my general inexperience), and it is hashing now and I feel...happy.
