I sure hope they release all the held escrows before closing down for good.

I've got a sale still in there with the BTC unreleased.  I have tried many times to contact the buyer asking them to login and release, but they never responded.  So far as I know the item was delivered to their satisfaction.

Downtime.

I guess you could do elig + a backup pool.

If you would wire those 20A circuits into 2-pole breakers you could draw twice as many watts per, and your power supplies will also run at increased efficiency.

That's how I run all my miners.

If you had scrolled down a bit you would have found this thread:

Personally I run all my miners on 240V circuits for efficiency's sake.

This same story plays out whenever refunds come up regardless of the maker.

A buyer should only expect a refund of the purchase price.  KNC's products are clearly priced in USD.  When I bought my November Jupiter the price shown on the product page was $4995.00.  If I were to request a refund, I would expect to receive a refund in that amount.

It doesn't matter if I paid in some other currency, be it BTC converted by bitpay, or EUR converted by paypal.

For one 160GHps blade?

I wonder if anyone has ever tried this stuff in a PC/miner liquid cooling system to increase its performance:

Once again:


Can we please limit discussion here to KnC and their products?  There are plenty of other threads for other topics.

Yup, looks like mine is moving again.  Status back from Exception to In Transit, scheduled for delivery Thursday.

I see they've bought a couple forum ad slots now.

Support ticket opened about 12h later.  No response.  PM'd Ukyo on here.  No response.

Also the chips are QFN56 rather than QFN48.

Do they ever tell you why?

Maybe you should consider switching shipping companies.

This really is a triple fail.

First they ship each board in its own box for some reason and make us pay for it.

They they delay all the shipments until Monday, having told us before purchasing that they would ship out last week.

And now this.

No, they are not normal.  It clearly says "exception" at the top of the tracking page and in the emails, and the estimated delivery date is gone.

You'd think BFL could at least ship bare chips on time.  You know, the chips they promised would ship 100 days from the order date no matter what.  Chips that they've had in production and been trickling out in miners for months now.

But no, mine arrived over 40 days late.

Shipments destined for EU customers met the same fate.  I don't think us.gov had a hand in this one.

That's pretty cool.  I have 2 jalapenos and 7 loose BFL chips on hand, but no hot air rework equipment.  I'm getting ideas involving my kitchen oven...

I wondered about that.  I just went and checked the box my October Saturn shipped in, and it appears to have no import declaration whatsoever.
