I have tested it on my Macbook running OSX with Virtual Box running Ubuntu, using bfgminer 3.10.0.
I get a lot of unknown job id errors and the hashrate is about 30% of capacity.
cgminer-3.12.3 is running fine with the same setup, 30+ GH/s.
So for now cgminer only.

Thanks for the compliments

Sorry, I don't understand your second question.

Yes

There are five available, so the bid is valid.

Thanks

Thanks

I started two auctions:
5 DIY1's: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=499502.0
5 DIY2's: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=499505.0

This is an auction for five OneStringMiner_DIY2 sets, 60 GH/s each, including shipment.
Just connect 12V via screw terminal/PCIe/barrel jack and connect USB cable to PC/Raspberry/... start your mining software and you're mining.

These are perfect replacements for your Block Erupter USB sticks. Just plug in the 12V and the USB cables and you're mining with 180x the speed of the BE. A miner software update might be needed.

Each set consists of:
1 OneStringMiner_DIY2 board
2 USB cables
2 power interconnect cable
2 serial interconnect cable
1 heat sink
8 hex spacers(4 for each additional board)
4 rings and nuts(for each up to 4 boards)
1 18cm fan(for each up to 4 boards)
4 fan mounting strips(for each up to 4 boards)

Auction runs till Friday noon CET. Starting 11:59 a new bid extends the auction by five minutes. If no new bid is done for five minutes, the winner(s) will be announced and a request to pay will be PM'd.
If paid in time, the package(s) will be brought to DHL that afternoon.

Starting bid is 0.2BTC, increments of 0.01BTC.

Please bid like this: <number of sets>@<bid per set> for example 3@0.25 to bid 0.75BTC in total for 3 sets.

And two DIY2's in similar setup next to the DIY1 (and using the same PSU).

OneStringMiner_DIY1 setup with 2 boards, Raspberry Pi, D-link 7-port hub, PSU and fan.
This is all you need to hash 60GH/s.
This setup can be upscaled to ~20 DIY1's.
More is possible, but the startup of cgminer takes longer and longer.

The hub is supplying power to the Raspberry(white USB cable).
DO NOT USE THE POWERED USB PORTS ON THE HUB, one fried Raspberry is enough  .

You don't need a HDMI monitor or keyboard. Just download Minepeon, which has a web interface to configure and monitor your miner.
And you can ssh into the Raspberry.

Thank you for your contribution.
Sure the price will come down, over time.
That has happened to all bitcoin mining hardware.

I will add to the OP: If the price goes down before your order is shipped, you will be refunded for the difference.

Standard Minepeon version 0.2.4.4, which is running cgminer 3.12.3.

I prefer to not reveal that.

I have setup a DIY1 and a DIY2, each 2 items (so 2 and 4 boards).


Will post pictures of the setups tomorrow.

I am on bitcointalk since summer of 2011 and anytime a new product was announced the price was too high.
The OneStringMiner is another choice for the buyer. No one is forcing you to buy.
Unless you are able to bake your own ASIC chips, you'll have to buy them and that causes higher end user prices.
Did you look at the Bitfury chip price on MegaBigPower?
Do you now realize that your prices are impossible when buying chips ?

Thank you.

I will make a guide for overvolting.
One thing is for sure: Most important is a good power supply.
I will include a list of power supplies of which the voltage can be adjusted, including the number of DIY1/DIY2 it can drive.

Please realize, that despite the fact that I am making this guide, your warranty will be void when overclocking.

Thanks for your interest.
I'll have another look at my calculation.

Update: I see these prices on MegaBigPower: US$375/US$400 for the 25GH/s board.
OSM DIY1 is US$395. I would say the prices are very comparable and the DIY2 is US$731, already lower than MegaBigPower.
And when ordering multiple DIY's, the discount kicks in.

Thank you!

We have a secretary, technical questions will be answered by me, shipment questions and such probably by her.

Well, I have been a buyer too: One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself.

That would be nice, have them contact me or better send in the order form

Thanks for your interest.
There is more in a comparison than just the price.
And they have the advantage of having designed their own chip, I can't beat that.
Buyers can choose, the OneStringMiners are an extra choice.
