That's an OK idea.
I was thinking about spraying my setup with water proofing compound, reassembling it in a big bowl of water, and putting it in the freezer till solid. Then it would be game on.

Imagine that I have of of these, which I do.
http://www.jameco.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10001_10001_123394_-1
And imagine that I once tried to hook it up to one of these thingshttp://technabob.com/blog/2012/06/19/28-port-usb-hub/ which failed, but at least I got to get angry and rip the thing apart to see how cheap it was made inside.

So, skipping any hub of any sort, suppose I can find a high quality usb 'connector', that will allow me to feed power to a single stick while the rest of the connector feeds my pi for operational purposes.
Point a case fan at it and I'm rocking.

Please tear this idea apart.

As enthusiastic as I am about a contest to maximize a stick, I don't know that I'm up to it now.

I found these comments in the stick support thread-

meech - steadily running @300mhz 7.2 v adj. @ 1.52a with 4 hashing about 16-17ghs

edonkey's getting 16GH @306 Mhz

chig reports running at 400 Mhz  with no errors in 24hrs (no hash rate mentioned)

phillipma1957- I did run at 400 and got 22gh but was pulling over 2.1 amps or just about ten watts a stick.
(and i bet if phil unplugged the other 19 sticks in his stud(ly) hub, he could shoot lightning bolts into a stick and manage to keep it alive for 24 hrs.)

and this-

Did you see we jacked one up a bit yesterday and got it to 488MHz? Most of the high-power parts were actually still stock.

Keep an eye on sidehack, he might just want to win one of his sticks back.

Why cant I cut or copy from paint and paste here?
No, that's not the question.
I'm on the shifts page.
The names to the left appear really random and multi-national. Are they randomly generated to help identify the shift?
Shifts appear to be around 45 minutes so I guess that if you're mining for more than that, you're 'in' for that shift.
The 'your diff' column says 60/63 but I'm mining at diff 80.
What's the 'inv diff'. It's either 0 or 80 as I read it. Why the difference?
Why to the right is the PPS%? It's either 0 or if I scroll down it jumps to 19 or so%. Why does this matter.

If you want to make mountains out of molehills I can help.

URL for everyone to see: http://poolmonitor.cryptoglance.info/

I think we'll grow this app later..... For now it's specific to this specific round/pool

pretty sweet, thanks!

cryptostamp:

 a question for you and phil, vapourminer.donation is not there as of this timestamp: Last Updated: 10/19/2015 01:44 AM (UTC), is something wrong? phil did add it to the list and it showed up in this post here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1205056.msg12719918#msg12719918

I assume "cryptostamp" is me?

The workername is "vapourminerdonation" (with no .). It's located at the very bottom and is in no specific order.

I'm sorry to say it, but when I read you I call you 'to myself' cryptostamp. I guess it's kind of a hodl thing. Smiley

Heh Eligius are liars and thieves Smiley
No idea why anyone would mine there.

LOL, that's people mining with an invalid address I think.

= donations.
scam
If you have a way to track these users down, you're welcome to share it.

On my pool we don't keep users connected with invalid connection details so we can steal their mining power = BTC.
Invalid address miners are not allowed to mine.

Quote from: kano
...
And as others have mentioned, it's not like rejecting the connections is going to benefit anybody.
...
Although you may think it wise to mine with a single account and no backup, most miners have realised for MANY years that is a foolish thing to do.

If one pool/account is rejected or fails when mining, cgminer (used by the vast majority of BTC miners on the planet) switches over to the secondary or later accounts it has been provided with.

If someone is dropping money on the street, it isn't the job of whoever finds it to hunt them down even if it is possible.
...
Well ... a few years ago a guy walking through a centre about 30m ahead of me dropped a small amount of paper.

When I got to it I noticed it contained cash.
I picked it up and it included over $100 ...

Though you may consider that a bad thing to do, I chased after him and gave it to him.
He hadn't even realised he'd dropped it.

And wizpants final comment Smiley
...
The accusations of stealing based on a well established policy are a bit absurd, and honestly I don't want to hear it.
...
I'm not going to implement valid address/worker name checking in the pool software.  It's not worth the time and effort when there are plenty of other things I can dedicate my time to.
Well established policy of stealing Smiley

Well ... it is a fee free pool ... where no one makes the expected payout ... for years ... they gotta get paid somehow for all their costs running the pool right?

I remember when ck's signature read to the effect 'only ignoring luke jr.'
That's when I tried to figure out who's who or what around here and I came to the conclusion that jr. guy was some sort of a jesus freak who also happened to 'pick up' on ck's early open source? miner and bend it to his liking. This is my current understanding.

To the point, jesus freaks aren't supposed to steal and cheat. This too is my current understanding.

Yea to a separate section for showoffs, I think I'd try to make the grade.

If it doesn't appear on your router as a device, you're not going to access it.
I had such a problem once and I tried a different ethernet cable. Low and behold the router recognized the miner.
These cables are generally cheap, and it's not unreasonable to be 'suspect' of them.
53  Bitcoin / Mining support / Can someone briefly explain 'Load' on an S3 on: October 19, 2015, 09:04:33 PM
Currently my S3 shows this:

Load: 1.36 1.45 1.39

I know it's not important to me because the S3 runs as expected, still I'd like to know what load means.
54  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Mining on Rapberry PI on: October 19, 2015, 08:48:13 PM
Do what you have to do to get a sidehack stick. Better yet, get two, same shipping cost.
I'm set up with an old pi, two sticks, cgminer-gekko,  24GH, at a cost of 20 watts total.

At this level, ROI is not a consideration to me.
What matters is that miners have to mine, and these mine well.
55  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [2900 TH] Kano CKPool (kano.is) from the cgminer devs [0.9% PPLNS] on: October 19, 2015, 08:13:22 PM
Any idea's on what the minimum hash rate might be in order to get a fair share of the pie and not end up in the dust bin?
I know that 1GH will only create dust. So I wonder about the guys running 10GH or less and if they're getting paid.

Also, is any plan in place to add up the dust until it's no longer dust and qualify for a payout, or should I go dust myself off?

Want to hear something really dumb?
I look at bitcoinwisdom and see these big red bars down near the bottom of the page.
If people just stopped dumping, the price would go up.  So stop dumping.  Who is it that wants to keep the price down?
57  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Undervolt S3 line voltage with variac. What would happen? on: October 19, 2015, 07:23:52 PM
1st attempt unsuccessful.
I think I'm looking for a resistor labeled R17 but I don't have any R17's and I took off the 4 screw heat sink.
I have a blue board, so maybe it's different than the green boards.
I'll dig thru the pile and find one with a green board.

I do though think I understand the surface mount resistor a little better.
There's essentially a metal cap on each end which continues underneath where it is soldered to the board.
So I will run my pencil along the surface between and contacting the two metal end caps.
The caps though seem a little bit raised above the surface (just a few thousands of an inch) and I question whether I
can bridge that junction effectively with a pencil.

Yes, I can make mountains out of mole hills.

nail polish would be my next experiment, but I'm pretty happy with three wraps of red 'vinyl?' electrical tape.
The red lets you see all the flashes but blocks the annoying blue. I don't bother but you could zip tie the thing to keep the tape from lifting.
59  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Undervolt S3 line voltage with variac. What would happen? on: October 19, 2015, 09:26:14 AM
OK TX

I'm going to read, find a pencil, and rub. I'm surprised that you emphasize rubbing on the the surface of the resistor (meaning easy for me) rather than attacking the connection to the board. It doesn't exactly make sense to me, I think of a resistor as a little thing with color codes and a wire sticking out of each end. I didn't expect that a surface mount resistor was active 'on it's surface'.

Cool, I have a project.

Why are you awake at this time of the morning like me?

I think/thought I read about it as a possible option in a S5/S7 thread. I have nothing to quote.

But since you're awake, and yes of course I'll look into it more, are we talking about rubbing a pencil against the 'wires' of the resistor and the gold? pad?. Does one test it with a 'multi-meter' or just rub it and hope go?
