Bicknellski K1 Nano USA Only Group Buy [Closed]

[bigbeninlondon]

Any link or where to download the cgminer for these?

Not sure.  I believe it's discussed in BKKCoin's thread:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=190731.0

OP updated; this is a BITCOIN ONLY group buy.  I don't have the funds to absorb a chargeback from Paypal.  I'm still trying to figure out how to mitigate risk.  John K has done a bunch of escrows, so hopefully he has some experience.  Suggestions are welcome.

I was under the impression I could pay with USD since that is what prices were in. Unfortunately you will have to remove my order since I don't have any btc to spend.

We will be using CGminer developed by BKKCoins for the Klondike as mentioned in the GitHub for burn in and testing. As more of the community gets these in hand I suspect that other mining software will be available as well. Remember throw some BTC to Kano and Cklovas for their support of the CGminer. Note that Kano has helped a great deal with guidance and support to BKKCoins while he was working on the software. Make sure if you use CGminer to also support him with some coins as he deserves as much support as BKKCoins for this project. I suspect further improvements will be coming depending on volume of K1s and K16s out in the wild from people wanting to optimize and further OC the units.

Will the K1 Nano have a Avalon ASIC chip on it or will we have to provide the chip? If we do provide the chip how much will you sell a K1 Nano for?

These units will be complete.

I understand.  I'm sorry I didn't make that clear sooner.

jesse11: No problem.  I'm trying to be responsive; I hate group buys with an unresponsive organizer.

Much appreciated.  Your name has been removed.  Thanks for showing a little faith in a fellow bitcoiner though, I appreciate it.

Not sure where would be best to ask, but I'm sure others are wondering as well. How does the overclocking work on these? Is it done through the firmware, or just a command switch when staring CG miner?

Just wondering since I was seriously considering ordering 5+ of these from the direct site, but would like to know the likelihood of being able to get them to 333Gh/s to at least match the Erupters since they just had a price reduction to around $50. At 55 each shipped these just don't seem like as good of a deal unless they can at least match or better yet surpass the Erupters.


Thanks!

Thanks! 

The OC has already been tested see my thread for info or on BKKCoins thread. K1s have achieved 350 Mh/s. You asked this in two different threads. Hope you saw my answer in the other.

Note that at 49.99 plus shipping it is a GREAT deal and with OC at 350 possibly and easily done with the CGminer software that BKKCoins has done might want to be careful making those sorts of statements. For month BE's have been way over priced. They dropped their prices 2x after we came into the market at .99, .89 and .79 and then when we went to .53 BTC. I would think that we are the only thing right now that is getting your BE prices in check. 40% off in 1 week later from our price being posted? You are welcome BE buyers you are welcome.

^^ Truth.  Especially when something smells fishy with the BE re-seller/group owner chain, or at least one link, right now. :/
