Confirm receipt of .4 btc... haven't seen anything from lightfoot yet, but I'll start boxing this up anyway and will get a tracking number ready by morning... just sold 30 USB Block Erupters on the Evilbay, so it's been a little sporty on this end.

****just looked at the clock... guess it is morning

@ Lightfoot, I'll have some extra space in the small flat rate box. If this arrangement works out. I'll include 2 chips that need reballing from one of my earlier failed attempts, and a dead Jalapeno board which has possibly 3 more salvagable chips/components. Should give you some more fun toys to play with.

@Delarock and Lightfoot,

PM's received.

For Delarock: I have the address mentioned in your PM and will ship to this address based on your request.

I will generate a shipping label after receipt of both payments and have the chips on their way tomorrow.

Just saw your edit. 4 or 6 at .5 each is no problem. If you only want 4 its not a deal breaker.

Lightfoot, need a little clarification. 6 chips for .3 is no issue. If you're asking for 6 chips @ .3 (total .18) that's  too low. I can have these out first thing tomorow via USPS.

Greetings,

After modifying my Jalapenos, I have a few BFL chips left over. These chips are the newer flat style packaging, not to be confused with the raised pcb design of the original chips.

If you want less than 13, the price will be .05 per chip with a minimum quantity of 4.

Payment in btc.

If and when you decide to buy, leave a message here in the thread with a quantity and I will PM you with a payment address and a request for your shipping address.

These will ship via USPS Priority Mail and I will pass you a tracking number here as soon as possible after payment is received.

You can find these on Ebay as well, but the going rate there is .0746 per chip and shipping does not appear to be included.

BlackFriday Jally Update 2:

So finished up my splicing and dicing on New Years Eve. I decided to make 4 3-chip Jally's so I could salvage their resale value:
Here's a screen shot of the final output. The two doing 11+ are the 2 chip Jallys that I added a chip to.


Of the 4 received, only 1 had the original old style chips (notice the one running @ 69C, that's the one). The remainder having a level plane all made good contact with the stock heat sink. I decided to go with arctic silver alumina for thermal compound and after flipping the fan and adding thermal compound beneath the bottom of the board and the aluminum/zinc back plate, all of my temps are good.

Here's a shot of the 8 hole plate I mentioned on the first post:


It was nice to see the boards with the newer style chips. I don't see any immediate advantage of the 292 firmware other than you can add chips without flashing. Here's a shot of one of the three chip boards I received, I received two 3 chip and 2 two chip models.




And I didn't go crazy so I have 13 chips left.. Look for a thread under Computer Hardware if you want them.

PS: I'd ordered two PCI-E to 3 Plug custom power cables when I placed my order. They were not in the box. Logged back into BFL's site and checked my invoice, and it clearly shows I paid $29.98 for the cables and also indicates that they were shipped. I wrote an inquiry to office@butterflylabs.com, but to date have not received a reply.

Update on BFL Black Friday Jalapeno purchase:

I bought 4, and haven't had a chance to really look at them until today. On arrival I had someone unbox them and plug them in and the 4 Jallys put out an aggregate hash rate of 32 Gh/s. 2 Were hashing above 9 and the others bounced between 6 and 8.

I've only opened two so far. One of the 9Gh/s models was running extremely hot (75c) so this was my first victim/patient. I opened it and found 3 chips installed (new version), firmware 2.92 label, a test date of 12/21 (so much for "in stock for immediate delivery"), and the fan blowing down onto the chips. I flipped the fan, replaced the thermal pad with artic silver alumina, put a layer of alumina between the bottom of the board and the aluminum plate and it is now running at 9+ Gh/s at a much more reasonable 61c.

The second Jally I opened, had the old school chips on raised PCB, it also had 2.92 firmware. I figured I'd try to add a chip to it while it was open. It worked! I was able to add a chip and have it recognized without flashing the Jally (The Dragon was standing by just in case).

I am working on the 2nd 9Gh/s jally now. If it has the new rev of chip, I will try to take it from 3 chips to 4 (again without flashing firmware) then I'll move onto the last Jally which I suspect has only 2 chips and will add one to it.

Of note, while inspecting the casings, one of my Jally's has 8 pinholes in the case to allow you to see each respective LED for its associated chip. Only 1 of the 4 had this the remaining ones only had two holes to view the chips..

More to follow..

I'll have some spare chips available for sale when I'm done. If interested, PM me. I expect to have at least 6 or 7 available.

Didn't you know that when the SHA-256 algorithm is applied to the letters AMT, they become BFL?

Except BFL actually shipped something.

What happened to the dude who was supposed to get the free 80GH/s?

iluvpcs,

Hello from a fellow Michigander. I would like to order 10.

***Update****
Payment and PM sent.

No mention of ZTE-Asic on the corporate ZTE website. The Zues model strikingly resembles that of btcolympus (another recent and questionable offering)

Yes you should have. I have 4 now.... AMT is a colossal waste of time.

Sushi, Please increase my order quantity by 1 for a total of 3 antminers!!!

GreaterNinja, I'd have saved .1 btc if I saw your post before Sushi's (bought 2 recently), it's going to be hard to beat the shipping times from china...

Anyway the point of my post, is that I was looking at your webstore, and in the performance description for the Antminer, it looks as if you are only quoting the performance specs of a single antminer blade, vice that of a two blade antminer unit. Hope this hasn't turned away any customers.

You are selling two blade units right?

download and install "Angry IP scanner" (free) set it to scan 192.168.2.1 through 192.168.2.254 and you should find your ants. The ants will show up as green lights in the scan window.

Finally!! A tracking number and actual shipping information on my order of 4 Jalapenos from the black friday sale.... It does look like BFL decided to copy this forum idea with their new 10Gh/s Jalapenos.... I'm wondering if they are 3 chip or 4 chip units and I'd like to see what additional cooling options they've used.

Recently had a jalapeno experience fast flash of the red led... one of the original chips was the cause... error cleared when I pulled the associated chip... that chip to led map is a lifesaver and should be blown up, cleaned up and reposted as a separate entry here on the thread.

Merry Xmas to all.... ordered myself 2x more antminers today... guess I'll use the 4 Jalapenos for altcoin when they show up

Merry Christmas Sushi!!

Here is a Christmas gift for you:

Thanks for the best group buy experience I've had to date.

When you run a business well, with a reliable product, excellent support and the fastest shipping ever, I would expect nothing less. Many other mining hardware manufacturers should take note.

I'm in the same boat, but delay was here in the US. It will still be amazingly fast shipping from China... when you get all disappointed, just think about 3 letters: BFL then smile.
