[xorxfon]

What other coins are mineable on this stick besides litecoin?

[noob.miner]

Any scrypt based coin.

Would love if anyone can point me in the right direction to get my ras pi 3 running this guy. I have stretch installed but can't link a headless setup to save my life. Any guides out or a video for setting up a pi to moonlander? That would be gold. The fan is killing me at night so I need to set up the pi in another room.

Check out the support thread linked in OP.

Any scrypt based coin.

thanks.

edit : just want to ask, who is the trustworthy supplier of these, as i see many websites are selling these at their own prices. some at less some at high.

Got mine, running them straight out of the box at 756, WOW!!!! Great design! Low 4's with no tinkering. Cant wait to tune them up and see what they can do!

Anyone get their Moonlander 2 miners to hash at 5Mhs plus?
What was the max hash speed you can obtain with settings?

Mem Voltage = ?
Core Voltage = ?
Frequency =?
Difficulty = ?
Hardware Errors % = ?


I have been getting just over 5Mhs with the following, 5v @10amp
supply and extra usb fan cooling pulling about 13.6 watts each total
68 watts on my Kill A Watt meter for 5 Moonlanders 2's.

Mem Voltage = approx 0.85v (trim pot R5)
Core Voltage = approx 0.82v (trim pot R9)
Frequency = 852 (in bat file)
Difficulty = 1024 (in bat file)
Hardware Errors <1%

I just hit a new best of 25k!

What else is everyone seeing as their best?

I can confirm the above guide works very well!

[jimmyl]

Any plans for Moonlander 3? I'd like to be in the first batch for a new one.

[TimBuck2]

I have pre ordered 20 on this second offering from two suppliers and maybe I will get them in mid to late January (although I see at least one of those suppliers selling "in hand" on eBay right now which has me a bit worried if I will actually get mine) but I saw jstefanop selling a few on ebay as well so I decided to buy one more to get my hands on this thing a bit quicker.

Glad I did! very nice and out of the box I changed the core clock to 768 and it seems to be working very well, stable, and barely any noise. I can't wait to get my hands on all my other parts (49 Port Block Erupter USB Board and 4 USB fans) to go with the Raspberry pi 3 and the 550 watt power supply so I can complete this little project.

Thanks for the Moonlander jstefanop ....  shipped quick too!


Had it running about 2 hours or so, solo mining and this screenshot is the result.

Ahh screw it! I can't figure out how in the hell to attach an image and search doesn't tell nothing.

Apologies if this post is in the wrong thread.

First of all thanks jstefano for an excellent piece of engineering.

My question :  I am battling to get the mining going to ZPool.ca   .  All other pools I tried are working fine it's just on ZPool that I get the following output and no hashes submitted :

Not sure if any of you have similar issues and a possible workaround with regards to command line settings that addresses the issue.
