If you have a 3 module unit can you add the 4th unit? I know ASIC chips are going around but i have a feeling you need more than raw chips.

you can add another module. There is a slot for another module in the unit as well a connector on the controller card. you need to upgrade PSU, 1KW is recommended.

How/where do i buy one? I looked for contact information on avalon site but could not find it.

pm me your offer and I might sell you one module

temp on one module is 23c other two 47c and 49c. why is one so much cooler? can you control fan speed?

also getting HW errors. so far 93 HW and 313 accepted. should it be running with no HW?

the 23c temperature is the temperature of your case and the airflow. This sensor is not attached to a module

The avalon i got from dogie has been running for 14 hours. So far ive gotten 27016 HW and 31745 accepted. This does not sound right to me.

The correct formula to calculate HW% is: 100 * HW / (diff1shares + HW)
You are probably looking at the number of shares, and not the number of diff1shares!

what are the differences between batch 1 2 and 3 ?

batch 1 & 2 have different screwholes at the heatspreader.

Is that the only difference? Are batch 1 and 2 modules compatible? I hear some units had issues.

They are compatible. You just cant mount them in the case of the other. But you can connect them to the controller and mine with them

Which batch do people prefer 1 or 2? Which batch has issues?

I hear about people controlling the fan speed. How?

The Avalons will do 4-6 modules per unit potentially in future.

"with one more empty expansion slots, totally 4 slots.
If time permits, Avalon Unit in batch #2 will have 6 module slots, this is not guaranteed."

-An avalon-asics.com page.

I thought 4 modules was the most? Where did you hear about 6 modules?

Somebody who has batch 1 is telling me batch 1 is better and batch 2 had problems. Is this correct?

avalon 1 and 2 perform pretty much the same

Why am i hearing some untis belonging to a certain batch have issues? Such as F1 fuse and P2 jumpers.
