Still waiting answers from Halong Mining and/or Innosilicon for questions about the exact same controller hardware design and also the same software. After further research and after being in contact with Innosilicon our company will no longer be going to Miami for the demonstration day.
We have talked to Innosilicon regarding Halong using one of their machines in the press pictures and we have reached a concrete verdict. We will be taking our business elsewhere.
Caveat emptor, please do not delve any further into this smoke and mirror operation and put more money into this. We have done the most intensive research by far of anyone online and there simply isn't a silver lining.
If anyone wants more information feel free to pm me, and if anyone wants our spot for the demo day or information on it also pm.
Well I'd like to remind everyone that I did say this smells a lot like Innosilicon hardware and software with different labelling. This partnership with Myrig.com is the most positive thing that has happened so far, but I'm affraid their retail price will be really really high, the same as with the S9 miners. Some new images are uploaded in the Myrig.com shop.
I managed to find the high-res images, they were 'hidden'.
See this Imgur album for the picture found at DragonMint product page: https://imgur.com/a/WaHLdWe can finally have a slightly little better look at the miner. For cooling there seems to be two pieces Delta TFC1212DE, front and back, in a push-pull configuration. And I think I now know why the miner web configuration page was just like with the Innosilicon A5 and A4+. The DragonMint miner has the exact same controller board.
See it for yourself, here is a picture for comparison: https://i.imgur.com/jxHeSP6.jpgAlso the steel case tube looks a lot like the one Innosilicon uses for the A5 and A4+. Maybe the Halong Mining actually has a subcontract for these miners to be manufactured by Innosilicon? And another design comparison here (pay attention to the controller with this image as well): https://i.imgur.com/a9sZcJa.jpgI surely can't be the only one who sees these similiar design details? One detail to also pay attention is that the Innosilicon control board uses reversed PWM signal for the cooling fan control. This method is not that commonly used. Delta TFC1212DE are cooling fans that are controlled with a reversed PWM signal. DragonMint and Innosilicon A4+, A5 miners use these cooling fans. This detail also supports my theory. |

Not sure, I haven't ever tried using Minera.  I have RPi 3 and it has been stable for weeks now so far, 24/7. Raspbian OS and it is acting as a controller for my Futurebit Moonlander2 setup. |
