For single phase 1 kw as 6.25 amps and power factor 0.9 it is 177 volts daily not bad.
Why i must read those law's , you guys are always there to help me out and do the math lol
so 177 volts a day is not bad unless in 4 days it consumes 2 months of my eb bill rofl .
You should read up to learn. Cuts down on folks wanting to give a smack upside the head.... You made me laugh. Thanks

What does 1116 and 716 stand for? The number of blocks until the next difficulty change? https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficultyBitcoin Difficulty: 217,375,482,757 Estimated Next Difficulty: 220,004,060,382 (+1.21%) Adjust time: After 1043 Blocks, About 7.2 daysHashrate(?): 1,688,646,689 GH/s Block Generation Time(?): 1 block: 9.9 minutes 3 blocks: 29.9 minutes 6 blocks: 59.7 minutes Updated: 8:10 (1.6 minutes ago) that is the line where I get the 1116 then the 716 and as you guessed it is the count down

I would rather they simply honored the warranty. If it breaks in the first 90 days it gets replaced without a lot of rigamarole on their part. Buying a miner and getting a 10% coupon on the next is worthless if the miner I bought only performs to 66% of spec. There are a lot of tech companies that provide excellent and reliable warranties. Bitmain could be one if they wanted to.
Yeah but the shipping back to China at high cost is a killer along with no cross shipping. It is not like an Intel CPU which ships at low cost. BTW When I killed my Intel i5 6600k I had two options cross ship at an extra cost of 25 usd or send it in and wait . I went the cheap way and had a new CPU in 8 days. If I cross shipped for 25 extra I could wait to ship the dead one back and would of had it in 2 days. I did not need it that fast so I saved the 25 extra cost. I actually do not hate bitmaintech but they are a bit short on service if gear breaks down. They need to adapt on this. Some reasons: 1) they are helping gpu miners with their short warranty 2) break even on asic gear is not 60 to 120 days. So the 90 day warranty means your gear is almost certain to not roi under warranty this helps gpu mining 3) they are pretty well known for not honoring warranty this helps gpu mining Basically here is my Eth setup and I convert most coins to btc. Bitmaintech has created demand for gpu mining. Mostly over their warranty issues. 18 cards two 4 card rigs and five 2 card rigs. Every piece has at least 1 year warranty or more. Most have a 2 year warranty. https://i.imgur.com/R72hWho.pngphil, what are you doing? ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) releasing the secret of how to get the same amount of btc with 2.5-3 times less watts and a real warranty? It is an open secret. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Bitmaintech is king of ASIC world And they need to watch for gpu world more then anything else.

I have been contacted by Yoshi of Bitmain warranty.
I will need to pull board take photos and send to Colorado. Better then spending 110-149 to ship to China.
I will drive to the solar array on monday and pull boards. I will continue to post how it is handled. Include Emails with redacted info I.E. my personal info. I go back to older times in BTC when BFL and real asic ripoffs were all over the place. So I actually want Bitmaintech to figure a better warranty method. Including the idea I posted above. I.E. a discount for no warranty Since shipping a piece of gear and spending 110-150 to be told no warranty is bad for business.

Way to go! Obscure troubleshooting at it's best! Typical troubleshooting: It's always the last thing you try ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Of course, when you find the answer you stop troubleshooting ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Indeed. Just woke up. It's still running. This is a good thing. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) Jon at Canaan was pretty cool, though. It was actually a cable they sent me with the RPi that was bad; that's why I wasn't considering that piece for so long. It all came out OK, and I'm liking what I see with the A6. The build quality is significantly better. I'd rather run an A6 than an S7 at this point. Hope we get a nice surprise in Sept. me three Yah I have room for two or three of them. I also have the nice dps 2500 psu so I am set to mine them. If they are two board 1000 watt miners I would love for each board to have three jacks. To make load on the pcie cables at 167 watts vs 250 watts

Man. With all these complaints I guess Im glad I didnt get one of these miners. philipma1957 definitely knows what hes doing, so there would be no hope for a noob like me to get this running properly lol. I guess I would consider their "warranty" useless at this point...
Yeah I'm not spending over 100 to ship it to Hong Kong .
I will pester Yoshi from bitmainwarranty. See what he can do.
No luck with s9 repairs through bitmain warranty, they forwarded my gear to Hong Kong. Hopefully they are able to soon.

No luck with s9 repairs through bitmain warranty, they forwarded my gear to Hong Kong. Hopefully they are able to soon. Yes, I contacted Bitmain Warranty in Colorado this week regarding my dead S9 board and a bad BB Black board. They said they had no repair parts for S9, but maybe soon. So I bit the bullet yesterday and sent them both to China. It wasn't cheap. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) I better get back some fixed (new) parts. Now back on this date right here in this quote I gave them a solution to their warranty problems: Lets face it we all know about bitmaintech and the warranty issues they have.
@ bitmaintech here is a suggestion offer no warranty option and if a buyer takes it give he a coupon to use on a future miner. If the buy wants the warranty don't give them a coupon.
This way the buyer will not take you up on the warranty problems you have. Since you don't honor them anyway.
I certainly would rather buy an s-9 with no warranty and you give me a 10% coupon on my next s-9. Then no one is in suspense about the warranty.
I would think you see that ETH and ETC are doing pretty well.
Mostly many people like buying from intel amd nvidia samsung western digital
to get mining gear with real warranties.
A very good eth rig costs less then your s-9 ,uses less power ,earns btc faster , runs quieter, has a real warranty.

You can try it on Windows 8.1 to see if the Windows can recognise 5 GPU. If so, there is nothing wrong with the hard ware.
Can you also swap the cards and have the same effect?
I dont think win 8.1 will have any effect. Yes Buddy I swapped the cards in diff diff slots but same effect I mine in windows 7 I have had resources issues in windows 7 with usb stick mining. But with many stick on 1 pc over 100. Your issue could be in the bios of that mobo. I am not familiar with it so I am not sure how it devides the pcie slots. You may have a bad setting on the six slots. They may need to be all legacy or all gen 1. So if you do 1 card it can work on any of the six slots correct? How much ram do you have? 1 stick of 8gb? Or more? Try asking mobo questions on anantech.com asrock.com overclockers.com tomshardware.com I have to think you are missing a setting for the pcie slots

And as noted in the main s9 one board up and died. Happened when I went to freq 525. Which I did when I moved it to the solar array. So we now have 5 and ⅔ s's and 1 s7 running we could add two more s9's as the circuits are 20 amp 240 3 run at about 15-16 amps so we can max at nine units. I will post either warranty process on the dead s9 board or I will send it to sidehack to play with. Here are 2 good boards with light and the one dark board. Which died after running at freq 525 for under a few hours Somewere some place I have a spare 18 pin cable maybe it can fix issues. But with tests that I did I think the board is dead. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fhttp%2FMbixRud.jpg&t=665&c=HoxOW6w6RkGHDw) So Phil what will you do? Are you going to contact bitmainwarranty in the USA? I sent this email today. Notice I said I wanted to avoid shipping to China and that I am willing to forgo the warranty for an s9 board at a fair price. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FxPtucCd.png&t=665&c=5KjiaKrTM5Xd7w)

This belongs in alt coins The psu is also short if you get them to run. Also the mobo has not been shown to use six cards people don't use that one. is this your mobo? http://asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z170%20Extreme3/ASRock Super Alloy Supports 6th Generation Intel® Core™ Processors (Socket 1151) Digi Power, 8 Power Phase design Supports DDR4 3866+(OC) 3 PCIe 3.0 x16, 3 PCIe 3.0 x1 Supports AMD 3-Way CrossFireX™, NVIDIA® Quad SLI™, SLI™ Graphics Output Options: HDMI 7.1 CH HD Audio (Realtek ALC1150 Audio Codec), Supports DTS Connect 6 SATA3, 3 SATA Express, 1 Ultra M.2 (PCIe Gen3 x4 & SATA3) 2 USB 3.1 10Gb/s (1 Type-A + 1 Type-C), 8 USB 3.0 (2 Front, 6 Rear) Supports Full Spike Protection, ASRock Live Update & APP Shop Can you get to bios? show the pcie settings. do the risers work for the 3 smaller slots? just set up the three cards with risers use the small slots then tell us if that works. just set up the three cards with the big slots direct plug in then us if that works. They moved it to alt coin. Give me a few minutes to look some stuff up. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FGAJgpI2.png&t=665&c=L5MElIBuBrK0iA)

Guy's i was considering buying the s9
I just want to know its daily power consumption in volts.
so that i can calculate the current costs for it.
Also it would be good to know how much would it be able to produce in a day , thanks !!!
volts means nothing watts is what you want about 1400 watts per hour that is 1.4 kwatts which is 33.6 kwatts a day or 1008 kwatts a month More for you to consider when buying from bitmaintech: And as noted in the main s9 one board up and died. Happened when I went to freq 525. Which I did when I moved it to the solar array. So we now have 5 and ⅔ s's and 1 s7 running we could add two more s9's as the circuits are 20 amp 240 3 run at about 15-16 amps so we can max at nine units.

I've got the power budget for another S9 but I'm not going to risk any more Bitmain purchases.
Hopefully Avalon will ship something competitive in the not too distant future.
Yeah with Avalon when I killed a board he just sold one to me no muss no fuss. We can add 10 amps at 240 volts to the array maybe 11 amps..

Yeah I'm not spending over 100 to ship it to Hong Kong .
I will pester Yoshi from bitmainwarranty. See what he can do.
