It usually is written on the cable what gauge it is, but most of those splitters are 18ga, almost all molex wiring is unless it's the high-end stuff. I used 16ga speaker wire and made my own power connections.

On the deadbeats not paying comment, it's pretty simple in my mind, your partial up front payment gets your order locked, and when the product is ready to be built, you require the remainder of the payment.
In the online customer profile you just have them enter their BTC payment address, which immediately ties it to their shipping address/account info.
Blockchain shows the full payment made from their address.
While I don't know the inner workings of the company, this solves most of the issues proposed. In fact you could provide the option for folks who don't care about order queue, and even charge a smige higher premium for this.
It's not a new model, it's used around the world, and is being used by some other companies on this forum right now.
Just a thought.

still, its not happenin on my ONLY jupiter. you with your 19 boards can give the double molex a spin.. Current is current. You can use a cheap computer PSU and jump start a car battery with it. 6amp contuous load on 18ga is absolutely not an issue. He's using what's effecively a safety factor of 4 doing it the way he's doing it. I doubt he'll have issues.

again, when i bought a mercury i knew it was going to be upgradable, but not a one time fire sale that lasted 3 minutes and couldn't even pay properly. not cool. ^-- Agree with the spirit of that. Orama, do you guys have any comment as to why the business model is to still take 100% payment for things which are in the distance for shipping? Why not a 25/75, 60/40, etc? I could understand a few days for handling time, but when you're talking weeks or a month, there's capital gains involved.

I've received 2 payouts in the past 60 hours. Perhaps it is payout size which is an issue? Are you a VIP member?

I tried two molex cables, and the first got melted. The second one I turned off before it got crazy again. Any thoughts why molex cables get so hot?
You want 16ga wiring for each wire channel, or larger (14). Anything smaller could cause issues. Also if the molex isn't properly soldered to the board or connected to the wire or the other molex, it could cause heat/melting.

The only reason for the October batch to buy uprated PSUs would be if they purchased additional upgrade boards that unofficially they shouldn't be doing, as they officially were for Mercury and Saturns to upgrade with. Most folks I know who got them are Jupiter owners. I know I'll never see one for my Mercury, not at the OEM price lol. Going for 2..3..4k on ebay.

Cheap power for commercial rates I'm sure. I wish I could get one =/ Or afford 60 gpus haha, hook a brother up!

Pablo, yeah they're back now.
|
|
|
Still wondering what is the main purpose to this coin?
|
|
|
Well it'll go sharply.
Up OR Down. lol.
Pablo, my graphs disappeared for some reason. I restarted the bot and everything, they simply aren't showing.
|
|

Pablo, how is the bot downloading the trade data? I've been working on something and would love the raw data it uses to create the EMA output.

They're not /that/ interesting once you factor in the hefty btc price jump variance. Remove that and you're left with 30-40% trade profits, which many other settings are also providing. They're good, I'm just saying it's not a goldmine unless you did this exact thing starting over a year ago.
If btc holds at current values for the next year (hypothetically), for example, the trade profit would be single digit.
It's a great example of the power of the bot long term, which is the point of it to begin with.

All you guys have to do is setup EMA calculation in a spreadsheet like Excel, and run the exchange data into it. You could set it up so it shows many different strategies at once, and pick the ones which best suit your tastes.
Each exchange really needs its own settings because of the variation, so you could then choose one based on each exchange, and setup 1 bot instance per exchange.
Look at this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=60501.msg736808#msg736808Yup that's the loving I'm talking about.

Zing. Although I thought they could be used for any KNC first gen system, not just the Jupe. I'd love to grab one for a mercury =/

Here comes the difficulty hike again, I though people said it ganna slow down soon.....
After 2nd quarter of 2014 maybe, not right now though. It's still on the rise. We haven't even seen all of the KNC units, much less Cointerra, BFL and other hardware which will be coming online. We will see, by then they might come out with even better ASICS... We'll be on the 28nm technology for awhile. We will see dies a little bit larger, some more speed. I think 2014 after the 2nd quarter we should see a greater likelihood of "in stock, pay for it now, we ship it now" equipment due to this. 2013 saw I think 3 or 4 generation hops on the dies which is why nobody ever kept anything in stock. I'm done acquiring equipment for now for this very reason, I'm holding out to see what 2014 holds. Well, unless a great deal comes along then I'll get it.. haha.

Hahah I did not order any updated module Because no extra ports at my miner
Lol.. I would love to have ordered an extra module, but have no spare money. At least not when they were available. They'll show up on ebay.. for 2-3x cost.

You have to admit that KnC is heading for negative PR, because they say "All items are in stock and will be packaged and shipped this week via UPS" (details page upgrade module)
If they said this week, they still have 2 days, or am I on the wrong week? agreed. Your quote just missed the relevant part (by intent?): ---------- in addition with statements like "Time to market is everything in this business after all" (news-36) "in bitcoin time is money" (news-44) and then do not ship immediately. ---------- I left that out on purpose because the relevent portion was "will be shipped this week". That disregards anything else, they stated when they would ship. I could say "well the Sun is really hot, but we will fly to it this week". Hot has nothing to do when I'm flying toward it. Their news was simply acknowledging the time-sensitivity of mining, mostly as a marketing ploy. Thank you. Now I have to find where I can buy these metal sheets from.
Grainger, McMaster Carr, even ebay. I'm in the UK. Do you mind posting some links, so I can look them up in here. Thank you. I don't know about industrial suppliers in the UK, but I know I've found sheet metal on ebay before.. try it.. go ebay-search aluminum sheets.
