Looks to me to be just another Innosilicon ("Dragon") clone.

It only gets worse the longer I run it: now 1032 discard, with 41 accepted. But it's reported all ASICs online and its showing that it's running at 2000-ish GH/s.
I find my batch 1 units don't run as well above ~40-42degC. You're quite a bit higher than than, why don't you try to run them cooler for an hour and see if it makes a difference? |

im running my miner with
sudo ./cgminer -S /dev/ttyUSB0 --avalon2-freq 500 --avalon2-voltage 7250 --avalon2-fan 100 -o pool -u user -p pass
and im only getting 35-40gh, what am i doing wrong
Got a screenshot? Those frequencies and voltages are for an avalon3 - if you have an avalon2 there are different values for both. If you do have an avalon3 just ignore this, it wasn't clear from the post. i am running the avalon 2, do you know what settings should i have? In the webui it says Frequency 1500 and Voltage 10000 for an avalon2. |

BFGMiner 4.6 (just released) can now support Avalon2 devices - even alongside other devices or more Avalon2 devices.
Do you have decent fan logic/thermal control? The stock avalon2 cgminer driver has a limitation where fans don't ramp until >59degC which is just way too hot for my application. I'm not sure that's something the host has control over... In the case of these Avalon modules it is under host control, at least during runtime. Temps can be read and fan speeds set, which is already done in the cgminer driver (driver-avalon2.c) - but currently the upper and lower limits are static. I'd post some of the code but this messageboard nukes the formatting, the function at line 237 is where the magic happens. I need to keep temperatures low, so I don't even bump into the upper limit. |

when i try the raspberry pi method i used the image file included and my raspberry pi just load a bunch of stuff then freezes and it wont connect to the router.
You absolutely sure you imaged the SD card rather than just copying the file onto it? yep i used windiskimager on a formatted sd card Hmm I'm not sure, its definitely the right file. i have the raspberry pi b+, do i need the raspberry b or a for it to work? (im a noob with raspberry pi's) Not a clue if b+s need a different image, sorry. You need a B. The A doesn't have an Ethernet port, so you'd need a USB-Ethernet adapter. The image should work fine for the B+ (I think) |

I am considering having these professionally manufactured for sale. I’ve researched this already and I can sell these cheaper than it takes to DIY from a hardware store. If there is enough interest, I’ll put in an order for them. Let me know!
Nice job on your breakout box. I do have a few suggestions for you. 1. All metal boxes MUST be grounded. That means the lead from the dryer plug must be tied to the metal box as well as the two lines to the outlets. It's not a big deal, just screw a ground wire into the box and tie it into the other three grounds with a wingnut. 2. Always use BTC Never have unsecured wires in the middle of a hole where they can wear on the edge of a hole. 3. The 12 gauge wire and 20 amp plugs are only rated at 20 amps. The dryer outlet is rated at 30. You can burn out the wire between your breakout box and the outlet box or the power cable from the outlet box to your equipment without the 30 amp breaker tripping. This may or may not exceed your tolerance for risk. 4. You can do everything in a single box if you get a deep one. 5. You will want to have 20 amp breakers protecting each of the 12 gauge wires if you build this for sale or your insurance company will disown you. If I were to do this project, I would probably buy something like http://www.ebay.com/itm/DELL-AP6031-5T439-4-Outlet-Rackmount-Server-220-240V-Power-Distribution-Unit-PDU-/371098052990?pt=US_Power_Distribution_Units&hash=item56672ae97e , cut off the plug and buy a dryer plug to replace the twisty plug. Disclaimer, I don't' know who that seller is, it is the cheapest "220v pdu" I found on ebay that looked like it would do the job. Good work on your project. It looks like you did a good job. Just please don't try to sell it without fixing a few safety issues. I think you mean strain relief. The rating of the wire depends primarily on the length - but yeah I wouldn't be using 12AWG. OP: I got electrocuted just by reading your post. Very entertaining. I'd suggest holding off on selling these, at least until you're able to correctly wire a power recept. Seriously though, this is an example of what NOT to do |

Support stable companies like Bitmain and the makers of Dragon Miner.
Dragon miner blatantly violate the license conditions of the software they whore for their own use without providing source code. To be honest, Bitmain's record is only marginally better. |

Do not fund these people.
Pre-ordering is trusting someone else with your money.
Don't do it.
Support stable companies like Bitmain and the makers of Dragon Miner. That ship out ASAP.
yeah, no. just no |

325 Gh as maximum? For 0.65 BTC? Why should I choose this device? Because of power efficiency maybe? It's not so huge comparing to S3...
That's avalon3(2014-03), avalon4 will be 700W, >1 TH/S(1~1.2+) , price should be ~490USD( ~1 BTC now) Okay - well just make sure you have your fan logic sorted out by then  |

F YOU scammers - reimburse people for your crap from last year. otherwise gtfo
You are supposed to forgive them now...it is different this time  f*ck yifu and his shady bs outfit. scammer for life. he can shove his tech up his as* until he reimburses what he stole Bitsyncom(Yifu Guo) have left Avalon project, right now the Avalon project running by Canaan Creative, Ltd., (founded by ngzhang) Locate Beijing China. Even though Yifu has left Avalon (Canaan Creative or whatever) all other particpants like ngzhang are responsible for the Scam of last year!  Avoid by all means! Scam! You don't know what you're talking about, but you're in good company in this thread. |

looks like it's in the "coming soon" list Coming soon:
Bitmain AntMiner S1
KnCMiner Neptune
TechnoB⃦it HEX mining boards
Spondoolies SP30
any other device provided for development (PM me) Talk to Kano, AFAIK he's done more custom work with the ants1/ants2 code than anyone outside of bitmain e.g. https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer-binaries/tree/master/AntS1. He told me one time that without the serial->spi code (the source for which has never been made public) he was quite limited in what he could do. |

Hey 20 chips at 25GH/s each for a total of 500 GH/s and 1BTC. Bargain folks!  If you guys are too lazy to put together your own miners (end sarcasm), then just buy one: 290 GH/s for about $300. Ehh, still not worth it. LOL who would trust these guys again anyways... Not surprising this thread gets shit on by the retard rabble within minutes of posting... Have any of you jackasses even looked into these products? Or who is making them? Of course not. Nothing to see here folks, move along. |

I did the same thing asking of only documentation on pinout and protocol
And received an almost word for word reply.
Yeah, that's a pass (not that I was going to anyways). Seriously though, why don't they do what the rest of the world does and offer at least partial documentation contingent on a proper NDA being in place? |

And you'll of course be making your source code modifications to cgminer available for download right? Where are you hosting it? Also, did innosilicon give you cgminer/driver source for their 1TH miner? crickets. Source codes will eventually end up online anyway, no reason to loose the few weeks we have before it happens. When you buy a design, usually they come with that stuff yes. What do you mean where? Like in Philly or Europe? Yeah, the thing is that the source code I referred to isn't innosilicon's to sell - althought they've been doing a lot of that haven't they? Cgminer is under GPLv3 license, terms of which include the requirement for all the source code for any modifications to the software to be made publicly available. Also, the product must be shipped with documentation indicating that open source software is included along with the component's author(s). More here: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CCUQjBAwAQ&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gnu.org%2Flicenses%2Fquick-guide-gplv3.html&ei=NmDxU_PDHZTioATDkoLIDQ&usg=AFQjCNFXRCW2eIjfoycJ03pwrBZAkskaZA&sig2=YixdgIMxHuGZxvPZjm8ALg&bvm=bv.73231344,d.cGUEvery legitimate asic manufacturer is doing this - aside from bitmaintech and anyone who bought or licensed innosilicon's design. I've heard from a few of these manufacturers who claim they were never provided source code, just an RPI disk image. I tend to believe them. By "where" I mean where will you be publishing? Most tend to post on github although there are exceptions. Those are very valid points. We also received just an image (not source) from inno, so we're in that boat with the others. Good point about the GPLv.3 license, we'll include that in the box from now on as well and start a gitup for our image downloads. But this may be a more technical question which i'm (evening moderator) not able to answer. Best wait until tomorrow morning/afternoon to get formal update to that, don't want to say something and then later find out it was wrong. Bullshit. Bullshit. Bullshit. You expect us to believe that the code/app that runs "dragon" miners also runs your miner - unaltered? Bullshit. An image download from a "gitup" as you put it isn't sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the software license - meaning just shipping a download link to the image with your miners is in violation of the software license. If all innosilicon provided is an image file (bullshit) you're shit out of luck. You also can't say that you were ignorant of the situation - not that it would help you. In English: you've been informed that what your about to do is theft and you respond with lies. |

The good news is AMT is a US company. It will be quite easy to prosecute them for GPL violations. Yeah, though I'm sure it won't come to that. Right AMT? |

exactly.
I don't know why they come here with a crappy price when I can always buy from antminers s3.
If AMT wants people to buy from them they should offer something BETTER than bitmain, not trying to sell crap.
AMT 2U Rackmount ASIC MINER BE200 Miner. Below is our lastest achievement, AMT 2U BE200 miner comes with 3, 4, and 5 250 Ghs module options. Option with or without psu. Production on this line starts this week. <snip> nice lookin miner </snip> And you'll of course be making your source code modifications to cgminer available for download right?
