It is kinda ridiculous that they only have that 1 working miner in a lab......

So, it cannot be done, even now?
Downclock it abit would be nice
Not as far as I know. I got tired of the noise and sold the damn things. I see. Another option would be to try soundproof the room but it cost quite abit.

Is that really ok? Do u have antminers S9 running for over a year under 90 degrees?
My D3 running up to 72 degrees celcius and my S9 up to 81 degrees.
Wat temperature do u run your machines at? Bitmain manual says it will stop at 125 to 135 degrees celcius but that is really high...

Lol, haven't touched those in years, I see no reason for the anti-static protection, but for what, $2, I suppose it could never hurt. I would worry more about heat and dust, and the abuse of simply using them. That is where the biggest faults seems to come from.
Agreed but I read info that there is ESD damage to circuits that we cannot see. Is that true? It should cost more than 2 bucks imo.

Well, likely scam. Anyone email them to at least make a simple youtube video of the machine working? That takes a couple of minutes or so only. Hmmm also 6200 rpm fan should be pretty noisy for home i think.

I've been emailing the customer support to ask about the next batch and the payment options. here is their response:
Thank you for writing. PSU, board and chips all come with a 5 year warrenty for defects. I can fully appreciate your concern. I have also been mining for a number of years and I'm fully aware that many companies have failed to deliver. It is always a concern with a new company. Our preferred payment option is obviously BTC since we aim to support the network wherever we can. However, we also will be accepting fiat payments via our escrow provider. If you have any doubts at all, you could always wait and place an order for batch 2. Please let me know if you have anymore questions. Best regards, Clive.
5 years? Really? Hmmm also, doesnt vega sound like AMD to u Also if the chip is 25% more efficient than the current best in class S9 you would think they would be plastering advertisements whereever they could. They could completely take over the bitcoin hardware game if these machiens were legit.
The S9 isn't best in class - Bitfury was showing similar efficiency to what Syan is claiming on their demo - and there have been "upgrades" to both GF and TSMC processes since then that make the efficiency claims of the Syan unit reasonable. That doesn't mean they are NOT a scam - it just means that *IF* they are a scam, they're a well thought out scam. They're also not the first company to come "out of nowhere" with a new miner - a few of which have proven to be legit.... U managed to buy any of that bitfury?

I guess it is not a problem since the machine is in casing.
U only need to stand on the mat when u are handling the device? It only applies to handling the device on the inside right
|
|
|
Do u put an anti-static ESD mat for your antminer shelf? Pls advise.
I wondering if needed.
Will it help in any way? Increase lifespan of mining equipment or safer?
I notice no topics on this lol

So, anymore speculation on this? Anyone hear anything new?
|

I'm pretty sure that every ASIC-based miner I've seen specified up to at least 80% RH in it's operating specs.
Even with *2* evaps running in my current space though, I'm only getting to low 30ish at the miner intakes and perhaps 55 right at the output of each evap.
I see. Will rust be an issue after a few or several months of mining? It should be ok right??
|
|
|
I got a good look. Question is, will rust be an issue after a few months at high humidity? It should be ok right?
|
|
|
Will take a look man. I appreciate the assistance
|
|
|
Anyone use it at that humidity and without problems? My location has 31 temp, 65-70% humidity.
I will be using fans to remove the hot air in the room after ducting the outlet through a wall. However, with fans, there will be pretty high airflow and thus, dehumidifier will not work so well yes. Thus, is it ok to let it run at 65-70% humidity?
Iceland has higher humidity at 85% from wat i see in google.

This is just taking too long. Still not launched yet right?
Nope, They claimed to launch testnet at the end of July, hope they can deliver it. Also it might be good that the EON coin skips theis bear period of the market I see. I hope nothing goes wrong. It has been a long wait...

Hi Quoine, pls give withdrawal request #28555 a push too. Thanks

I would not put more than 5 Antminer S9s into a 40 amp 230 v circuit. Don't forget to derate 80% if you are following NEC; you don't want to trip the breakers, or worse cause an electrical fire if the breakers aren't sized properly. Hire an electrician to determine if there is more available power, get permits from the city, and also keep in mind the ventilation requirements to keep the equipment from overheating.
Does somehow pulling the electricity out from nearby cost alot. Any rough guidelines? Is there any rental location in a city where there tends to be more availability of AMP for more use? :s11: Or some kind of service that caters to these type of electrical needs? Juz look for industrial areas? Too new for answering this question. I'm actually needing answer to these questions as I might get into mining if I start understanding it.
Hang around here then buddy. I haven't knew there is this amp limit. What is different from having a building with thousands of pc with many more amps? Probably the noise would be to Lound anyway?
There is only so much a socket can handle. The problem is u can have even 5-6 sockets in a room and it could be such that all 5-6 can only handle up to 40ampere max....
