They seem to have new ideas once or twice a week. For me I have 4 old school hashlets 1 fury convert to a hashlet.

 This is a total of 5.2mh hashlets  this is now 'grandfathered' hash and should be considered the same as the hi end new prime hashlets which go for 40 usd each!
I also have the older 478gh edition of an S-3.

My hash = 5.2mh for scrypt

My hash = 478gh for 256

Since I sold off a lot of stuff to truly absolutely lock in a profit my gear is all paid off .  My profits are


0.19469302 btc  as of Fri the 29th.  I am due a payment today.


  In retrospect I could have held the gear longer and sold at a larger profit but that is a gamblers lament. As an investor since this investment has fully paid off I am satisfied so far.

 Edit
1800 usd put in 1800 usd taken out. All that remains is profit.

 Well after overnight running on ghash I tried to do bitcoinaffiliatenetwork as suggested it did not run. It may be that I picked a bad server as that pool has about 7 to choose from. I am back at ghash. I would like to think that btcguild or a few other pools will do a fix for this. By fix I mean  that I can simply use the controller.

   Impressions this is a nice design small unit. Sidehack I could see 2 of these in a custom case with a hp2000 psu. Two options 120 volt with a slight down clock to freq 250 and 240 volt with the 270 ,280,290  options.   The case could have 4 fans at a little less speed to cut down the noise. My biggest complaint is the software.  It really should allow for 2 or 3 pools with a rollover option. Right now if ghash goes down I got nothing.  And even if many pools could just work  there is no switchover like the s-1 or s-3.  Bad friedcat naughty kitty. All in all I like the gear hoping for a decent firmware fix for the 2 complaints.

BTW this gear likes the 260 setting a lot.
I am using the us1 ghash server and a different worker on ghash.


   

If you want one and live near New Jersey pm me. I have one it is a batch 4 model runs well. Read my trust it is good.

I have an account there.  I will give it a shot tomorrow.

I am still mining well on ghash but i rather mine in a different spot.

thanks how you doing with the higher clock. I am doing 280 clock seems good so far.

yeah sometimes I have to use chrome or firefox or vmware/windows7

I got it going pretty good.
funky wind sound from the fan.
all in all having it mine today and good numbers on ghash I can't complain.

As usual and no reflection on Canary fried cat alway prices just a bit too high.
I paid about 520 usd and around 36 to ship with extra for insurance total of 556.

  I guess you could say it should have been at my house on monday not thur.  so a 3 day delay cost each of us . 05 btc.  that falls on friedcat again.
Still the next best thing to this is a 22+ day wait for an s-3 .

So for all of us may the hash be with us. lets see how much we can earn in 22 days.

yeah this gets about a .3btc head start in coin over 1 pair of s-3's and it is a little cheaper 1.04 btc and say  .06 to ship a total of 1.10 btc vs 1.16 btc  that means this has a .36 btc edge over the s-3.  If you plan to mine this for 3 or 4 weeks and then sell it on ebay it is absolutely better then an s-3.  if you just want to mine for 6 months the s-3 may be better.

yeah this would be great gear if it used 650 watts.

my evga 1300  reads 886 watts  and I am doing 830gh.

  design is nice.  is this worth 1.04 btc plus shipping compared to 1.16 and free shipping for a pair of s-3's.
  yes because I am hashing today and will earn about .3 btc from now until an s-3 ships.
  I don't normally mine with ghash  but when other pools fix the issue I will move there.

do not know and suspect it is the issue



and after a reset  being sure the miner mines on factory setting   .  I figure out that the + was what the gui pus in if you hit the space bar.
So the error was mine I deleted the +.
Put this in and it hashes at ghash.io here is a screen shot


okay I reset controller  and it is mining for the am that was in the controller.

when I do a reset this is what my controller resets to/    and it auto mines for that pool/address

I am stuck on simple settings for ghash mining .

anyone  mining at ghash want to show me a screen shot of there settings page? 

got it thanks

and pulled the port out and I have nothing

I went to test settings found version 1.41


   no hashing so I must have this wrong .  some help please.  Once i get this I am going to do a write with screen shots to setup a machine to the hated pool i am pointed to.
I would like to do a full write with settings for newbies.

seems to be on track

okay I have it assembled.

I am using a 5 volt dlink 1mp wallwart   so it works fine.  the controller has flex on volts.   5 to 12? at 1 amp seems to be good.

I am using an evga 1300 psu 4 pcie cables attached
dip switches:

  set 1
then 2
then 3
then 4


I typed in
192.168.0.254:8000/FlashMega and I am at this spot. flashings seems slow so far 10 minutes.

Any time estimates for flashing?

 well once you attempt to factor   btc price as part of the calc   it does become a more complicated model.

Please try to remember some other reasons for diff shifting a bit.

Cooler weather is coming .  So many people are buying and running more gear with that in mind.

Bitfury did open a big plant.



I still see no real incentive for the top builders of asic's to sell to us.

 Mining at 1 watt a gh , 10 cents a kwatt and 500 usd a coin  turns a profit .

Up to a diff of 80000 they are all good.  Why sell much gear just mine

  At a diff   60746 M         a 1000 gh 1 watt   per hash 10 cents a kwatt machine earns a $1.40 a day .

Any builder with that cost for power no longer has much incentive to sell gear.



And many builders have .8 watt at 6 cents a kwatt  they would be earning $3.03 a day at   a diff of 60746M

and 9.44 usd a day now

yeah I almost have mine done.  I think it could use 8 more screws!! no kidding I will point to where they could have gone.

I turned the metal square bracket out yours are turned in..   this make mine a bit longer but I think either way works.  I am just really pressed for time today and tomorrow maybe I can post on sunday.

my money just came in.

My bad still tired from the NYC trip

 I will list what they sent me. For today when it comes.



received

.01308380 last night
.01519732 night before that

0.02828112 for the 2

total ahead = 0.19469302 btc





below is the second day of the s-3 I sold

I am fully squared away with all the sell offs.

been away for a day.  I have a sick brother-in-law  and he lives alone in NY .

well the 5 volt power brick will not kill the controller.  so if you have one and it works use it.

under volting that kind of gear is pretty safe.  

oh my gear arrived today.

 I got home really late long day in NY long ride back to NJ.  Ride was not for fun.  looks like my brother-in-law may need surgery for cancer.  will know more in 10 days or so.


puts  my annoyance  about Fried cat's shipping in perspective.

I assembled some of it.  too tired to finish it .

seems to be this way.  I have an account with ghash more to trade then mine guess I will mine there and maybe join the  other one mmpool.org

I am not anti -pi or anti linux I just have not had time to buy one and learn to use one.
