Good info and ideas on both of your posts. Arms this really is a great idea! We are submitted to 2 now for voting.
Have you applied to C-Cex, if not as you can see I requested that the bring you on board. I would suggest you reach out to them. As for the others, let me know which ones are targeted, perhaps we could add them to the general letter, if no we could do a separate letter just for them. |

Nice!!! I am saving for the 5 oz so hopefully I can get one ordered soon too. On a note the BFL I am hosting had an issue with the RPi image died I am reimaging now. I did not notice for a bit I have been out of sorts. I will have it back on the pool in an hour or so. Thanks I'll be placing an order to manufacture the below shirts sometime in the coming week with the hopes of getting them before Christmas. They are going to be printed on heavy Hanes Tagless shirts. I will also be throwing in a free T-shirt with every 5oz coin pre-order to try and get that project moving along.  |

Very cool thanks for the link. Nice cam. I have been saving unsuccessfully for one for my reviews. Which model did you get?
The pics are great.

Nice cam. I have been saving unsuccessfully for one for my reviews. Which model did you get? The pics are great. I got a new toy.
Rack of SP30s, viewed from behind:
Looking inside an SP30. Top view, exhaust fans on the left. This shows some deficiencies of the camera. It's miscalibrated (reported temps are about 60°C above actual temps -- it appears this was fixed with a new software version), and it does a poor job with the aluminum heatsinks due to their low emissivity/high albedo. The heatsinks are actually much hotter than this image shows. Moving the camera angle caused the heatsinks to appear to change temperature, suggesting that much of what we're seeing on the heatsinks is reflected IR from surrounding objects, including the PCB and the walls/ceiling of the room.
225 amp 3-phase cable bundles in our overhead cable tray, viewed from beneath. Notice the bundles on the top of the image are warm (about 30°C in 11°C ambient) but the ones on the bottom are cool. That's because we're barely running any current through the bottom bundles, but the top bundles are running at full capacity.

Good luck in your travels I hope you enjoy them greatly. I have a good time watching you on the Golden Egg game. You strategize the game in ways I did not think about. Good to see you on here. Sup dudes. I been playing a month now and its getting better bny the day. I am laid on the beach in Thailand having a long island icetea. WAC/ the golden egg will be my income for a the next 6 months. For the game I put in 2 BTC and I have cashed out 3 BTC so far its quality I am getting all the back packers here to sign up haha Also waiting for my visa to Cambodia and will get WAC involved over there  Catch you in the game chat |

I wanted to vouch for WorldAidCoin.
I am as most of you know the Head of Mining News at CryptoCoinsNews.com and I am part of Bitcoinist.net. I do not lightly put my name behind things or people.
WAC is made to help people and so far it is starting. WAC and its people are not going away we are in it for the long haul and will grow the coin to help facilitate helping those in need around the world.
The Golden Egg game is fun and the proceeds help fund helping others and enrich those that play both with coins and by doing a good deed for others.
Thanks for you time and support.
I wish you all the best.

Nice!! That rules. Now to get one per day. :-) NastyPool just solved its first Bitcoin block! :-) Block 332691The miner to thank: NastyMining-PPS With a little reward for doing so I see. Looks like it is going to be a good week for all the NastyPoP miners. |

I have the same thing on the working unit I have. It does it with the BE controller but does not on the RPi Minera controller. They are very sensitive to temp as well. When it gets below 40 degrees F in my mining room the boards will just stop hashing. The String setup seems to be the culprit but I have not nailed it down yet. When on the BE controller it will just act like a board or two has run out of power. I have tried several PSUs and they does not change the behavior. My unit keeps throwing up low hash warnings on ghash every few hours, and the controller resets after a while. Hash rate when its running is fine, all chips accounted for and chips temps never >90C or so externally. I've tried a known working controller and I've also tried @220 on the chips but no difference. Any ideas, I've not seen this type of behaviour before.

The software they provide is terrible as well. It literally has ads in it. If you have any other miners running on your computer this software interferes as well. Don't use it. |

Great job Nate! You always keep cranking out updates. That is the reason I recommend MM to everyone. It just gets better and better. looks excellent, unfortunately got my hopes up as I dont have a subscription to the stats on your website, and wont for as much as I wish to support you, my BTC income is almost less than the sub fee. Pictures make it look pretty good though for those who have got a sub to the stats on the webapp.
Correct - the Dashboard in 3.7 is an integration of the MobileMiner HTML5 app which, while free, requires a $4.99/mo subscription in order to cover the retention of the stats if you want a Dashboard and History Charts. For that you get a Dashboard, History, and support for additional hosts hitting the Open API. You also get an Open Source solution for embedding that information wherever you want (as MultiMiner 3.7 does). But hey - not everyone can afford $4.99/mo! So no biggy. That's why there's a free account.  |

Yes it runs on the Rockminer T1 as well. I am using Crazy Guys RPi Minera image for it and he has a RM cgminer for it as well. Works great I love the better control with the RPi and pool failover and MultiMiner support with Minera. I'm pretty sure novak tested his USB-BE hack on a Prisma as well. Tubes and Prismas are pretty interchangeable as far as controllers go.
Yep. Also ManeBjorn tested one on the Rockminer T1, which is for all practical purposes a tube, and it works with that too. -- novak |

NastyPoP is cool and catchy.

Yes all caps were accounted. The fan was on full and working fine. It was not heat that did this but a popping cap. I have seen so many of them over the years in different computer gear. Well that image is becoming a bit too common. Do you know if the cap was there before the incident?

Interesting development. Since I could not get it to stay running with the fan control I hooked it back up to the normal board control and plugged it in. At first it did not find the boards or they would not hash. After a couple restarts of the controller it started hashing. Left the room and a little while later the smoke detector goes off. The board that had been dropping out first when it was running, a side board caught fire. It was quick and nothing big but pop it did. So it is disconnected after testing the other three boards which again came up ok just dont want to hash at low temps. I am going to have to write an update to my initial review as these are not very safe. Something is wrong in the string design I think. The Tube and Rockminer T1 are working great at the lower temps better than when it was 80 degrees f out. FriedCat if you or any of you partners are reading this, I have tried to contact you through several channels and PMs here. You gave a response to a vendor who is not sure I can use your response or not. I understand you are busy but I would like to have an official response before I publish my update about the Prismas. Many people are worried they will burn their homes down. You can PM me here or contact me through my email on my articles. Also let me know how to RMA this unit please. Thank you.  |

Great idea. We will have to get on this and do it. |

Ok on the Prisma not running end.
It is 21 degrees F in my mining room. So yes below freezing. I used a fan speed control and slowed the fan way down and the Prisma finally starts up. So it does not like the old or too warm. On the same hand other miners like the SP30, Bitcrane, S4 and more run massively well at these temps.
It does not like to stay running long though. I will keep adjusting the fan to find the sweet spot in temp for it.
I may boost the freq to see if the extra heat helps. I have it at 240 now.

We would like to hear from you all. He can do a run of UARTs for this.
If there is enough interest I will get him the funds and he can get them going. I know they are hard to get and depending on the amount needed we can get the run going.
I have been working with him behind the scenes to get project going. Novak is a talented guy that is for sure.
So everyone let us know here if you are interested and we will get it going. I will give him what ever help he needs.
Thank you.

Seems to be too cold in my garage with the other miners for it. It just does not boot the boards anymore. Really frustrating. It is too loud for the basement LOL Plus a fire hazzard with the dam boards burning up. What did you do to fix it?
As i said before. Instead of using AM cgminer from crazy's minera, i compiled another one from github.com/blockerupter. Worked much better for me, filtered some of the errors and seemed to be booting the boards much better than before, i still had to do few restarts and after it boots up everything, i just leave it to do some work. From the beggining i thought it would be something terribly wrong, but it just the miner being stupid and not booting up properly. And also rather than spamming the miner restart button. Its better to keep reopening the cgminer through the terminal, more info, quicker and finding the boards better than through minera for some reason.. So whats up with yours atm.? Still struggling to start it up at all? Or do you get some hashrate going at least? Ops. I actually replied to your post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=795477.msg9571067#msg9571067So I tried cgminer 4.7.0 like you suggested and I'm still getting the BET0 errors. I tried re-starting cgminer ~20 times and still the same error. When it starts do you leave it running for a while ? I'm still getting the errors also its spamming cgminer with it , but it stops at some point then it starts accepting shares and the hashrate shows up after that, sometimes its hashing very slow , usually when it boots up more than 500gh/s i leave it , then it slowly starts up all the chips on the boards , but eventually hashes on full power. Do you get any accepted shares at all ? is this what happens chris ? do you wait 10 minutes to see if it improves I recommend this as well, especially from a cold boot. I find they are a bit harder to get started when it's really cold, but once the prisma starts warming up, boards start coming to life. |

The thing that bothers me with any KnC claims is the fact they said they are not going to sell miners anymore so they can claim any numbers they want and reviewers like Me and Dogie will not get our hands on the to fact check. Any business they sell to will most likely be under an NDA so it will be hard to verify for sure. I have an interview with Guy from Spondoolies going live tomorrow. No matter what the others do SP-Tech is not stopping. Pretty cool actually to see so many companies doing well and working hard for improvements. Guy impressed me a lot when I met him in person. I can bet you it won't be a 16nm. the article has typo some times it reads 16nm other times it reads 14nm they have been bragging about the new chip since sept. 2014. I also think based on everything I have seen the 14/16nm chip will not go from .7w to .07w . I think they are bs ing a whole lot saying they can do a 10x improvement . they will be lucky to get to .5w or .4w . but what do I know. Now if they build a solid .4 watt miner and no one else has one doing better then .6w they will have a decent edge over everyone until others make good a good .4w miner. |
