I'm out ...at 13.5c kwh here in the USA....this boat don't float (In the wave of 20/20 hindsight I have 2 Titan(s) and a 100 amp service.....so even if I could swing it probably would not pay to upgrade to 200 amp service even if the price was right ...so.......I guess it was not destined to be in either case with btc difficulty and price at this time in either senario) Reality sucks

Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

is it possible to just get the barebone board? i've seen some data center miners running just barebone board on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okI9rQNNtTQthey don't even bother to put the miner inside a case with a fan. Just a barebone green board hookup to bunch of wires and a large fan.

Just a barebone green board hookup to bunch of wires and a large fan. That's technology from about 18 months ago. The power consumption for each board was much lower, and hence needed a lot less cooling as a result. I don't expect that Bitmain will be selling boards and not whole miners. Even if they did, it wouldn't actually save you any money. You will need their controller either way, and there's precious little to be gained by trying to engineer a better cooling solution. The "Green boards from 2014" weren't a complete miner, and hence needed the customer (i.e. the mine) to figure out the cooling.

Will be interesting to see what price is lined up for batch 2 of units and how long will have to wait for units. Hoping price is a good one as might consider to come back into the mining world again but with the ever growing price of energy in UK it is going to be a tough call too see any profit made from units. Need a good unit price and some diff jumps in the down direction then up. And also with the approaching half next year in July 2016 from 25 BTC rewards to 12.5 sure is going to bring some questions to weather or not price is going to chance. and also almost 70% minted too with 30% remaining that last lot of coin is going to be tough to generate. Just hope prices climb back up and despite coin rewards halving again will be good enough to sustain mining.

I placed my order on day one 8/30 and paid via wire. I got confirmation email from Bitmain being paid on 9/1. The site still shows my order as unshipped, and I have not received any emails about it either.
Update, I got an email last night with my DHL tracking info; arrives on Thursday. I did not order a PSU, so it can only be the S7.

My guess is 30 day wait for batch 2.
So say late OCT 21-25.
I think that, no later than after one week, the S7 is again on sale. I hope so. I bought 2 coupons a few days ago, but haven't placed the order yet. Hopefully they'll be back in stock before my coupons expire. I have 1 coupon I would like to order 1 more, but I was hoping to test them first. Maybe they open for sales soon. What kind of power do you have access to? Won't you be running close to 6 kw for home mining since you said you bought several other S7?

I can confirm that they ship orders according to who got their payment confirmed first. I ordered on first day, payment confirmed 06.09. I guess I got screwed by this, lesson learned.

You can search online for a better rate or call the Electric Company and have them lock you in on a lower rate. Need you in the game buddy!

I hope this is not going to be a delay.

Give them a call and make sure to provide them any information they are missing ASAP. Happened to me twice with KNC Jupiters and Spondoolies systems. Caused a few days in delay and ended up costing me a few bitcoins in profit

That does not sound good. I would say it's delayed and sounds like it has not left China yet?

I ordered on Sept 8th so it will be interesting in seeing how much longer mine ships after yours.

That does not sound good. I would say it's delayed and sounds like it has not left China yet? Does not sound good but hard to say. Sounds like must be his country since it shows Wednesday as delivery date. But if it got that message and has not left China yet no that would not be good, as likely a longer fix.

That's what I had to do starting back in February of this year. I could not afford the electricity and I couldn't effectively deal with the heat when winter came to an end. I've been with the Lee Group for about 9 months with a bunch of S5s and it has worked out well. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=934581.0I'm also going to try my S7s at Toomim Bros this time around to see how that works. http://toom.im/The Lee Group Data Center will cost $2.90 per day for 1-S7 The Toomim Bros Data Center will cost about $3.23 per day for 1-S7

I gave it to them and they said that they would release it. Whew! Thanks Again!!

I just thought in the past when others had problems like this the clearing agency was in China but I must have been mistaken. Did you have them shipped UPS or FedEx?
