I don't think anyone said it is cheaper to put in a 220 line then spend 120 $ for something that will burn your home down  , all because you may think buying this might be cheaper . but you can put in one 220 line in the states,for 80 bucks or less, if you shop around .I'm guessing he lives in the US and has a place were he can by posting this and from what hes saying..


my bad  jstefanop did "

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RM5OF70?psc=1    this one is the other one it's rated at 60 watts, your is better and its cheaper.



maybe is just my hub and batch two thu anything i throw at it just works, mines this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817707235  I have it self powered at 7-24V either over a 110 or 240 line tried both but really saw no need for 240.   the PSU, i have does Output:24V 3A to match the hub.

tried that link, you actually got a usb 3 hub working on a RPI cool. i have yet to get one to work .I know some do but finding it can cost a lot over time.

This one http://www.amazon.com/Superbpag-Port-Cable-Charger-Black/dp/B00W4X3DAA or this one http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RM5OF70?psc=1, I'll buy it after Xmass   .

Will this matter with BFG for GekkoScience Compac BM1384 Stickminer batch 2 ?. BFG won't pick it up  batch 2, a few others are having the same issue. batch one works fine with BFG.

I posted this in the https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1173963.msg13312792#msg13312792 thread asking if there is a issue, I'm not aware of, with batch 2 and BFG ?.
This is what side said :  "batch 2" sticks are the same as "batch 1"  except each stick has a unique serial number is greater than about 480 and he changed the diode on the LED flash circuit.

CG picks it right up.

I'd rather use BFG but will us whats needed to make it work.

what hub , mine only works with batch 1 and it's USB 2 , i tried not just with RPI, i tried with cubie boards or that type ARM cpu and rpi. i just got a cubie board 2 today im gonna give a shot and have a new firefly coming , I love those little PC , once i can afford one i may buy one of top end new cudie boards that just came out .

what setting are you using . my stick is seen, it start blinking all most right a way but then nothing else even after i let it set for 20 mins , as i said id rather use BFG but CG will do as well, what ever it takes .

found it


but it doesn't work either, so i think the new batch was made different and BFG needs a update to it ?.

the above settiings work with batch one but not with batch 2 for me .

Was wondering if anyone else has batch 2 working with BFG ?. I guess, I should have asked.  


Thanks AJ .

for the code, it's been a long while sense Ive had to use in any form.


BTW it does see it, but it won't show any hashing with BFG, shows it in BFG as 0 and  it acts like it is hashing but it's not . i even run it on eligius.st , by it self to test it . nothing ever showed up. it gets warm etc . but this is only happens with BFG . i can use  cgminer. .

batch 2 with windows 10,  no point in posting any more shots with a PI or others ways, i tried, it shows the same results with  5.3 to 5.4.1. .



last post about it,  asking more if there is a issue and show what i tried, it doesn't really mater much which software miner I use, I always root for the under dog (BFG in tihs cae ),but will do what i have to, too make it work for me . or did i get one  of those sticks with a mind of it's own and it uses what it wants to .

 it does work there is nothing wrong with it that i see , in fact it works better then the first one, i bought before it  .if it is bad, i will or would thrash it any way , i only bought it to help support .) .

Just asking !! anyone having issue getting the latest batch to work with BFG 5.3 to 5.4.1 direct to the PI or in windows ?. by direct i mean plugging into the PI it self . I have tried all different setting with BFG without a hub with a Hub, it just won't pick it up with BFG , BFG will pick up the first stick, i bought, or batch 1, if that was batch 1.

 gekko-CGminer will work with both batches, if I compile it in minera or command line.

IS there a setting or was it made different this time around and bfg sees batch 2 different ?.
just wondering, i can use gekko-CGminer. other wise !!!.

used these setting in windows with the right driver for BFG , on a few different PI types including a RPI2 and RPI b and RPI with different Os's etc .



The only other setting i haven't tried is


forgot how to use that .

even did


there was one other way to use


what i meant by " The only other setting i haven't tried is "

Just got my shiny new toy in the mail !!!!   


Thanks

It may be BS !!!  we have to  wait and see .but why not share it ?. but with bit fury i don't trust it. it might just  be them letting us know they have a nice chip and are lieing to us about selling to the public, unless it's like some one else said they want full control over the bitcoin network and this is how they plan to do it, then shut out every one and any one .
The Problem with one group of people controlling it, is bitcoins could become worthless then they would be handing there own ass to them self because they got to greedie.

I don't trust it, greed has a funny way of blinding others.

IF you can get your hands on some S3 ++ id buy them _ . notice i said S3 ++ not S3 +, i could have bought some over the summer but passed it up or saw it to late to buy at least two S3 ++, after, i noticed it said ++. now i can't get any in the US.

and the halving is bad why ?. if bitcoins keep going up how they are the halving will have no effect at all the only thing i see bad is 12.5 less coins per block and higher difficulty, i don't see that as bad unless the chip makers try to shut out everyone and  mine for them self, which is possible, but some one will come a long and stop that unless the laws of the land stop home miners or make it to hard to do it in your home, by law.

how much or how lomg will they share it with the avg joe, if at all.

but yea if he can get some, that will be super awesome.

16nm chip 0.06 J/GH @ 100 gh  to 184 Gh or more per chip, depending on cooling.

I'm willing to bet if some on the forums  could get there hands on these, they would have them maxed out at 200 gh per chip.

air cooling a 8 to 16 chip board in the antminer s series way with two borads per miner, would make a nice home miner.

@ 8 chips per board clocked @ 140 gh under air would be a nice miner @ 2 th + @ 300 wats or so at the wall , but if side was to or could get some, i can see one miner doing what maybe 4 to 5 th with 16 chip boards @ 500 watts , there is all kinds of ways and miners that could be made from this.

I'm sure i got the math wrong on power useages, it's polly lower .").

we do need more chip maker willing to step up and let every one , have at it. weather they agree or not, it hurts everyone, hugging it all , we weren't meant to be that way but were meant to help .

I was just saying bfg works as good if not better using less setting .

 thanks sense you did I will to.

I'm using CGminer 4.9.0 the site that had it came back up this morning >.

give it a shot and follow all he said i did it in a small toaster oven it worked and lasted a while, but i got sold a bad S5, to start with ,they made good on and told me to keep it . what have you got lose but maybe regain your S5 back .

Do reboot that should go way it's a firmware issue they never really fixed unless there is something wrong with yours. mine are not loud at all i guess it depends what server psu you use.

This is http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-39Y7360-Delta-DPS-2000BB-Power-Supply-Unit-For-IBM-BladeCenter-Servers/361440858625?_trksid=p2060778.c100275.m3474&_trkparms=ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140723144412%26meid%3D6d8489fcaf9f424a81488a4bc3b1b1ef%26pid%3D100275%26 not loud at all or this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/121773841067?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT .  but i always over kill on PSU's per miner, even my PC. and server PSU just work and are cheap.


and mine never max out . maybe another reason why there not loud , i do have two server PSUs I don't use that are very loud, when you start them and stay that way.


no ATX PSU are very quiet unless it's made cheap even at full load. .

Or install it like this



if you don't mind installing MySQL-server . either way worked for me.
