Sidehack stick solo pool club

[Mikestang]

sidehack sticks do 55%     of freq  

I think you mean 5.5% of frequency?  Checking the math it comes out to 5.5 at least.

[TheRealSteve]

Phil dentally picked the right solo pool to use .

Dentally?  Well I suppose he did sink his teeth into it

I initially suggested it because of the relative ease of adding workers, rather than having to assign individual addresses etc.  Helps that ck (and kano) are very responsive

I think you mean 5.5% of frequency?  Checking the math it comes out to 5.5 at least.

The ASIC's clock -> Gh/s multiplier is 55.  100MHz * 55 = 5500MHz -> 5.5Gh/s
So 5.5% is correct..albeit off by a factor 1,000

I was thinking it might also be fun to keep track of who currently has the "best share" reported by the club's address.
As of this post the best reported share is 51,471,144.  This belongs to philipma1957donation.

Strange, though, because FinksySticks shows a higher best share of 65 million, what gives?

Maybe the /users/ one gets reset, but /worker/ does not?  ck might have to answer that.  Right now FinksySticks doesn't show nearly that high of a best share.

The bot (ignoring resets) reports:

Top club best shares: valkirstick (891,953,402) philipma1957sticks (216,364,341) fullzerostick (191,610,039) FinksySticks (65,558,032) bmoscatosticks (49,883,780)
Top donator best shares: philipma1957donation (2,366,037,588) philipma1957s7 (1,305,528,734) slimepuppydonation (176,899,661) aarons6 (82,192,528) larry12s5donation (49,990,406)

okay here are 20 sticks at freq 250 for more then 23 hours

one iffy   by iffy 100 hw out of 82000      which is under  .12 percent


 19 perfect   not bad.






the stud hub on the left has the best 5volt psu for efficiency  (90% rating rated for 150watts with no cooling 200 watts with cooling)  but it has to be outside the stud hub. So I pulled the board and built a platform to mount it all.

 I am running 15 sticks

the stud hub with 5 sticks  has an 85% psu rated for 130 watts







temps are 81 f



power for the 2 hubs = 128watts

in one of your Picture not shown here  i saw a USB thingie with digital numbers on it what was that i want one.

[baktegon]

Guys I'm being a dummy. I'm looking for the chart that compares frequency to GH but I can't find it. Even in the Google! If someone has the link i'd appreciate it.

sidehack sticks do 55%     of freq  


so

125 freq =  6.875  gh
150 freq =  8.250  gh
175 freq =  9.625  gh
200 freq = 11.000 gh
225 freq = 12.375 gh
250 freq = 13.750 gh
275 freq = 14.135 gh
300 freq = 16.500 gh
325 freq = 17.875 gh
350 freq = 19.250 gh
375 freq = 20.625 gh
400 freq = 22.000 gh

I run 20 sticks at freq 250 I should do 275gh  I am doing about 272gh

Oh perfect, saved it for later! Thanks Phil!

these search terms will yield many such devices: USB Meter or USB Tester
e.g. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=usb+meter
There's basic models like the 7-segment ones, slightly fancier ones like that white one with the LCD (I've got one of those) and somewhat expensive but feature-riddled ones.

You're adding an extra step or two to make 55% work, no need to mess around with 1000MHz = 1GH/s conversion like you did..  If you look at the list Phil posted earlier, which I've quoted and editted below, you take the frequency and multiply by 0.055 (5.5%) you get the hash in GH/s.

125 freq * 0.055 =  6.875  gh
150 freq * 0.055 =  8.250  gh
175 freq * 0.055 =  9.625  gh
200 freq * 0.055 = 11.000 gh
225 freq * 0.055 = 12.375 gh
250 freq * 0.055 = 13.750 gh
275 freq * 0.055 = 14.135 gh
etc.

Yes you're right. It wasn't intentional, but an oversight on my part that workers' best share doesn't reset along with the rest. Might not be such a bad thing...

It's not showing that high of a share because it reset at some point, probably after a solo solve yesterday?  But if ck says worker best share does not reset then I don't know how else to explain the discrepancy.

[pepto]

The only concern I have with resetting one's best share with each block solve is that I will never know if luck is a true thing.
If my sticks never solve anything ever for years, yea I know, come on what are you expecting, if I saw a best share of mine that was even in the ballpark I would hope that you would share my excitement.

I used to feel the same way. Even through best share is basically a meaningless statistic, it does give you a sense that something is happening.

By default, my monitoring script will sent an email if any of the monitored addresses have an improved best share. The last best share is stored in a file locally, so it doesn't matter if the pool resets it or not.

When I was just monitoring my own addresses, this was cool because I'd get an email once in a while. But now that I monitor all of the club's addresses, I was getting a ton of best share emails. It was really too much so I disabled monitoring of best shares for now.

Now all I see is when someone (anyone) solves a block on CK's solo pool. So far it's always been someone else.

But where there's hash, there's hope

I think you're mildly confused   Phil's list is fine, but mentioned 55%, which is incorrect.  I said "multiplier is 55", that's not a percentage

100MHz * 55h/Hz = 5500Mh/s or 5.5Gh/s.  No extra step there, and no oddball percentage "divide by 100, multiply by 5.5 (aka percentages), then go from Mega to Giga by just substituting strings"

EDIT: No, the worker best share does reset, as that code was there from before. It's only the share count that never resets, and that applies to users and workers.

[philipma1957]

I do      .55 x 125 =               68.75



  why?  it is the least amount of keys to enter on a calculator.



I then type in freq = 6.875gh in the chart.  just moving the decimal place cause I know a stick cant do 68.75

Technically   entering

.055 x 125 = 6.875  is  correct   but it is not faster and the chart has  10 plus entries.

My bad since I did not explain it exactly.

Well, I guess you could call it confused if you mean I read what someone wrote and then applied what they wrote and determined they were wrong.  

So yes, now I see that Phil's post was in error with the "%" mention, that clears it up, carry on.

Mine is back up.   Appears electricity was lost on RPI.  It rebooted but sit there with no miners.  So my average is lower today but should be fixed now.

Now need to find a scrypt to do run it automatically so does not happen again.

Easiest way is edit the /etc/rc.local (if your using raspbian) and add (just above the exit 0)

cd /home/pi "or whatever you used"/cgminer-gekko
sudo ./cgminer -o pool -u user --compac-freq xxx  what ever else you want

And it'll start mining as soon as it boot's.

[edonkey]

As an alternative, Minera automatically starts your miner. You can optionally specify a number of seconds to delay after boot, if that's interesting.

It also supports automatically restarting if the miner software crashes (which I've never seen with cgminer-gekko), or restarting if N number of units goes non-responding (again, never needed to use this with the sticks).

Minera also has a pretty GUI, if you like that

I don't know that this addresses what you're saying. I recently had a 20 minute whole house power failure. When it came back on, I deliberately did nothing just to see what my RPI Cgminer-Gekko setup would do. The pi restarted, the sticks restarted, minera restarted (or never went away ). It may have taken another twenty minutes for things to get back to where they were, but they did. And probably would have done it faster if I put a suggested share difficulty in there instead of waiting for that first 1K to get things moving.

From someone who has never used a RPI, I am immensely impressed with it's ability to free me from my pc while mining 24/7. Of course we do the same thing with antminers and such when our blood is running hot, but for sticks this cannot be beat. And you edonkey are going to remain a hero to me for some time for your iteration of Minera/Cgminer-Gekko.  It's absolutely sweet.

test list for TheRealSteve






Beta test ends OCT 11th-------


Remember this first 30 days is beta test.  If we get crazy lucky and hit  we all get an equal share.  

So the donators like myself are being good to stick buyers.  Guys running 1 stick will get as much as guys running two sticks.
I am running a donation and a stick and maybe 1/3 the hash.  I am only taking 1 share.











I will donate 5th of hash a day in the form of a rental from nice hash.  I will spend 0.011 btc each day which is about 4 to 6 hours of bonus hash on the pool each day. I will run this bonus hash for 30 days and see how it stands after 30 days.

Remember most likely this pool club will never hit a block.

The master user addy is this.

I just slipped in 2 or so Gh/s to my stickname  (maybe a high estimate) because i wanted to run my drillbit thumb for a while.
Ha, how many of you know what a drillbit thumb is.
I trust you understand I'm not asking how many of you don't give a darn, I can figure that for myself.
