Emails are out. Please check the info in the email carefully, especially about the number of modules and the bitcoin address.

I recommend a refund. For those who persist own the Batch #3 unit, I think we can find a solution.

Many thanks.

Not sure if you want discussion here or by email, I think here would be better save multiple people asking the same questions of you, so I hope you don't mind if I quote.

Quote
3. I had paid the order by bank wiring RMB, but not bitcoin transaction. Though the RMB pricing was based on the exchange rate of bitcoin pricing back in time, there is risk that Avalon team decide that they will refund the RMB amount I wired, which will not be able to buy back the same amount of Bitcoin as Bitcoin has appreciated a lot since then. If this happens, I need your support in the public discussion.

This is going to be crucial to the decision, and I don't see you getting an answer from Avalon in time to make an informed decision

EG ball park figures

$75 at time of ordering, $95 now means on a 4 module unit we could lose 23BTC, obviously that is no good, and we would be better to take delivery as that gives a buffer to get the $ value back.  Plus with the new cgminer build they are running a lot faster than originally thought which helps a lot too.

I'm inclined to keep my order if possible.

I think it is much simpler

OP paid avalon with RMB, so Avalon team will of course refund him with RMB since he paid with RMB. But OP still have our bitcoins, so he should have no problem returning the bitcoins that we sent him. Unless he already sold some coins for RMB, which for this kind of order is highly unlikely, and OP is a true bitcoin supporter, he won't sell any large amount of coins I believe  Wink

What A/C are you using? I had some problems with the A/C I'm using to cool 7 Avalons, maybe I can help you out.

If you are using a similar A/C, it may be the same problem. I am using an industrial portable A/C, specifically a MovinCool Office Pro 36.

Excellent - thanks HorseRider!

Could you please tell how many modules / units you're hosting in total - so that we can calculate our share of the bitcoins going to the above address?

Thank you!

44 modules~

The air conditioner problem will be solved very soon. Now not all the machine is mining, and all mining at 300MHz. Soon we will all be mining at 350MHz.

I build a hot air containing system,  however, the A/C refuse to work when the hot air is hotter than 40C, when we think the temprature is still acceptable. Only part of our machine is mining, and only at 300MHz. We checked all the possible problems and identified now. It will work very soon~

It seems that you have solved the AC problems Smiley https://blockchain.info/address/1CZg4CTgLBk3LhrfthChZ4sh7NZwv6EX5P

So now the logical question is how will the payout be done?  How will you charge the electricity costs? In PM you mentioned that it will be done via some automatically pay out script, it will be very frequently, which should lower the risk. Can you please address those questions when you have some time?

Thanks.

The A/C problem has been solved, but the outdoor temperature has surpassed the historical records recently in China. So I may not OCing the machines. They are now all running, but at 300MHz. News said this hot weather will end in a week. I think by then we can over clock the machine.
