1  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: GekkoScience NewPac Stickminer Official Support Thread on: March 18, 2019, 01:40:21 AM
Darn it.. How long till you guys get more hubs built.. Went to put one of the heavy duty hubs into my cart and said 0 available.. Ive looked I might have one option that's viable as an option which is heavy duty and can do 2.1A per port but its a wee more expensive then the GekkoScience one even including the add on power supply.

One other question for sidehack.. Any plans to create a BM1387 version of the Terminus 808 miner you made with the 1384s?? The thought of something with the mining capacity of 4 Newpacs is almost enough to make somebody drool (minimum 100Ghs on lowest setting vs the 66Ghs of the Terminum plus potential to run 500GH/s (130x4 is 520)).. I doubt itll be immediately but that would be a neat option maybe later this year Wink

Saw this power brick on Amazon.. It might actually max out the power needs for the Gekko Hub as it puts out 10A vs the 7A the 419 brick has.. Until I found that I thought I was going to have to put the full power supply package and then just plug in more hubs as I got them to make sure I could run 6 of the NewPacs on the Hub.. Also saw a couple interesting fan options probably overkill for the hubs to keep them cool but better be safe then sorry.. I would think even if one fan failed it would keep them from overheating..

Dual 120mm Fans with 3 speed settings: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JLV4BWC

Im going to probably buy my first newpac this week and hopefully get it up and running and then get the hub and such to expand soon.
