I had two different 40 amp PSU that I tried and both failed. I do have two 20 amp PSU that are running 56 miners. I also started a blog with the links to the parts I bought. http://aurel57.blog.com/

Do we put the delivery address and return address for the label as the same??? Don't see your from address anywhere for self printed labels
put your address for both but put in Canary's zip code  60181 in the spot that asked if shipped from different zip code

this maybe of interest ,

Im still getting the same rewards and same frequency of rewards using the same hash rate i was running 3 weeks ago even though ive seen the pool hash rate basicaly double !!!
no sure how that can be?

I just hope the the new and improved Slush 2.0 solves this long-assed block soon and moves on Smiley

Pool luck (1 day, 7 days, 30 days): 135%, 98%, 106%

Pool luck looks normal so maybe its just the new mining world with these high difficulties and so many different pools and large solo miners. You can only cut the pie so many times until all the pieces look to small.


I'm pretty sure that luck reflects the results of the previous block found, not the current block. when this one resolves, it will drag luck down.

That is correct. A round does not factor into luck calculations until after a block is found, and when the current round is over the daily luck is going to drop well under 100%.
Ok I have a question, since posting the pool's luck and the block is still ongoing why is the 1 day pool luck going up when nothing has been found for us? It seems as this block (over 14 hours now) continues that the 1 day luck would adjust down not up, as we see in the 7 and 30day? No big deal just more curious than anything else.

 Pool luck (1 day, 7 days, 30 days): 179%, 96%, 105%

Slush congrates on the "Slush Pool 2.0" upgrades! I have been with this pool from my start of mining and wish all here a prosper pool future!

I'm not "pool hopping", I've setup CGMiner to split my 12 Gh between Slush and (currently) BTCGuild.  So I'm currently still mining with Slush with roughly 6 Gh and roughly 6 Gh going towards BTCGuild. 

Is this a viable way to run one miner? Who knows for sure....
can you tell us which pool you do better at? Just wondering with BTCGuild being 5 times larger?

1711  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Which USB hub to use with Block Erupters | NanoFury NF1 | BPMC Red Fury? A List. on: September 21, 2013, 10:27:59 AM

Are you using an R-Pi or a computer..?

Are you using the same 10-port hub as a host hub to connect 4 of the 10-port hubs together..?

I see you have 7 BE's in each of the 10-port hubs, is there a problem when connecting more than 7 BE's in one hub..?

I am using a computer. Yes I am using 2 of  the cheap 10 port hubs to host 4 each of the hubs. I have filled all 10 slots on the hubs before but since I really don't want to run over 30 miners on each PSU so not to over stress them I just plugged 4 hubs into each PSU and tried to balance the load with only 7 per hub. If I order more miners I may very well load up the hubs, add another PSU and run the fans off a separate powered hub.

Also as you see I added a couple of cheap LED volt meters to keep a eye on the voltage being put out of the PSU's.

Difficulty settings dictate what level of difficulty the miner will accept and send to the pool.  Higher difficulty means higher rejects.  Diff 16 means harder hashes, but every hash counts as 16 shares.

Why does higher difficulty mean higher rejects? (Does it really?)
I think what he means is with the higher worker diff rate it just appears they have a higher rejection rate only because you need to take your accepted shares x worker diff then divide by your rejects to see what the rejected % is.

In fact, you have to swap the numerator and the denominator in your clause. ;-)
I.e., divide the rejects by the total shares, not reversely.
Yes, and you have to divide by total shares, i.e. accepted and rejected together, to get the rejected percentage.
Yes I was wrong and had that backwards. But that is a good point about adding back in the rejects which I totally missed. Thanks

Kind of funny how when ASIC miners were the only game in town everyone was saying how great of a guy friedcat is for producing and selling a product that was getting into peoples hands... now some want to tar and feather him because of things out of his control.

My only bitch is I was one of the first buyer of the USB miners where I bought 15 @ 1.99BTC each, in Canary's group buy #1 and was one of the last to get the coupon at .15 each when he was selling them to anybody at .18. It would have been nice if the coupon deal would have been done more fair than it was.

It seems to me (and I am not complaining or saying OMG anything) when I first start my 56 USB  miners using BFGMiner the 5s hash rate will fluctuate a lot above you hash rate and this is why I think I may see a very high diff but after running a while the avg hash rate levels out and stay constant and the diff does also. all this happens even tho I have my worker diff set at 1. So the manual setting seems to not mean anything anymore.

They WORK at Diff1.  cgminer/bfgminer is handing them diff2 work.  There's a difference.

Miner software just computes hashes, and then checks to see if the hashes are lower than the arbitrary submission difficulty you have selected (or the pool has autoselected). If you could create only diff1 shares then you'd have found a flaw in SHA256.

I get the sense they are complaining about this output that is coming from the miner software.
if you have 1 asic mining at 335mh/s the hash rate it is locked too. and your slush worker page says DIFF 1 and the slush worker page says your miner is hashing AROUND 335 +/-10% then minimize your mining window and play xbox or something.
this output below is asic miners... OMG my miner got issues a diff 46!!! someone help me!
IF an asic was really given DIFF over 1 u would be experiencing high rejections and would be no where near 335mh/s on your worker page. minimize go play xbox.

maybe you need to go play with your Xbox and stay out of a discussion you don't understand. Nobody here had the reaction of OMG anything. But all we were doing was talking about the fact the pool is auto adjusting the workers diff. I now have 50 USB miners all running under 1 worker so the 17ghs has my worker at a 9 diff.

hello to all the good people of bitcointalk,

I was wondering if it would be worth my while taking out a loan to by something substantial. (Mining hardware)
Any feed back would be much appreciated.


no.  The only sure way to become a bitcoin millionaire is to start off with a billion dollars.
