How about this.
Go out and get a 0% for x months credit card. 12 to 15 month offers are everyplace now if you have any kind of credit.
Once you get the card, buy Hashlets up to your limit.
As your payouts come in convert the BTC to cash and use it to pay down the credit card.
If before you pay off your card GAW turns out to be a scam / ponzi then you call the credit card company, tell them and be on your way.
They will not make you pay off the rest if you have been using your payouts to pay them back. You are out nothing but a bit of your time.
If they are not a scam, then who cares, you pay off your card, take your profit and be on your way.
I have 250 Mh/s and I don't think they are a scam. I just think they are more interested in making stuff pretty then making it work well.
It's a growth thing, for now it's more marketing then pure engineering. If you look at some BTC mining pools you see that. Why do people go to ghash instead of eligius? Because ghash is nicer looking. And although WizKid who runs eligius looks to be a very good programmer, he can come off very cranky at times. Ghash support might ignore you (a lot), and then not deal with the issue (a lot), but they have never (at least I have never seen them) lash out against someone in a public forum.
That matters. I left eligius and now mine elsewhere after supporting them for a long time because of WK attitude of dealing with some things.
Same here a GAW, their support is horrible at time, but they at least pretend to be working on it. I have had other places who do work on problems and then after it's fixed tell you to f--k off.
Just my view.
Off to grill for the holiday.

And what is odd, running from the terminal it's all good. Issuing the same command through the GUI and no.  -Dave |

OK, what the heck am I doing wrong?
1st off, did I read all 69 pages of this thread? Yes, sort of. I was dead tired by the time I finished at 2:30 this morning and might have missed something. So if I just flat out missed it, point it out to me let me have my Duh! moment.
Now to the problem, I have Minera running for 2 GS Blades and 3 Blizzards. The performance on the blades sucks. I have tried just about every setting I can think of and still crap. Plugging the USB hub into a Windows PC and running BFG all is good.
Any thoughts / settings / tweaks?
Quick edit: all the HW errors are from start up they do not go up in any meaningful way over 3+ hours.
-Dave
Are you setting the correct frequency for the blades? Have you tried using cpuminer for the blades? What about cgminer-zeus? I gave up on bfgminer for my blades as it produces very high HW errors but I have been getting very stable results, both with cpuminer and with cgminer-zeus I can't get the Zeus to work with the cpuminer and can't get the blades to work with the cgminer-zeus. BFG gets them both working but with the low speed for the blades. -Dave |

Difficulty power usage etc
0.33 cents a day not counting electricity
And I lost use of close to 750sf of warehouse space. So even though I am making a small bit of coin with it, I have to pick and choose what I keep. I am also in the habit of buying other miners to play with. -Dave |

Yes, shipping from US. Here is the thread on them, with all the info: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=323727.0The 2 of them stacked and hashing away:  I can get more pics tomorrow, I just have to be out of here in a minute, so I snapped one quick. -Dave |

Continuing my cleanup and since no one seems to want my Chili here off to the next box of stuff. I have a pair of 24 GH/s HEX16A2 units to sell. I'm thinking BTC0.125 shipped to anywhere in the US. At the value of BTC now I am thinking $20 per unit and about $20 for shipping. If my thinking is wrong please let me know  -Dave |

Another price drop.
BTC0.07 as you see it in the pictures.
BTC0.05 without the fans & heat sink. Just the bare card.

I don't know if you would want them but I have a 8 Avalon 2 project hashing boards. Some look a bit worse as other people have tried their hands at repair.... -Dave  |

Would you want any Avalon 2 project stuff ?

Let me scroll up four posts... We're changing up the "standard package" by offering reduced-feature boards. The stock board won't have current sense or the 5VDC on it, since a lot of people probably don't use those anyway, and it saves a few dollars on parts. Those features will be optional though, so if you want 'em you just need to request 'em. Additionally about the only parts we've ever had issues with failing on these are the toggle switch, so we're replacing the toggle with a push-on push-off button; we're also replacing the fan speed knob with a trimpot. That greatly reduces the amount of stuff sticking up off the board, which will make them slightly less user-friendly but a whole lot less likely to be broken during shipping. If you want the toggle and full-height knob, we can install those instead but you'll have to request 'em. See what happens when you read all 10 pages, by the end you get stupid (er) This is me going DUH! -Dave |

Just to let everyone know, we should start rolling out fresh stock of the new batch of D750 boards sometime next week. Initial availability will be the reduced-feature boards, which will be cheaper as just the boards. Kit price will still be $55, as we were selling them previously pretty much at-cost to keep sales up and then didn't change the price when sales exploded.
What are the reduced features of the reduced feature board? Or is just the board with nothing else included? -Dave |

AM V1 can be purchased without a pi, but a pi is currently the only accepted controller. Each unit should come with the necessary ribbon cable to attach the pi to the V1. You can control up to 4 V1s on one pi with the latest firmware.
Can you have one of the V1 and one of the V1X2 on 1 pi? I'm assuming it does not care as it just counts the boards, but I figure it's better to ask 1st. -Dave |
