[ANN] Bi•Fury | 5 GH/s USB Miner [IN STOCK!] {SALE !}

[Luke-Jr]

For now we are most believe in ORICO A3H10 hub.
Price per port is right and quality is very good.

But they will always be OFF after a power failure.
I'd recommend the ORICO P10-U3 instead.

Summing up the discussion on power spec.
One of our mining test that summary you can see in gallery, was running on laptop with USB 3.0 port.
So we know that 5+GH/s from device can be easily acquire with normal USB 3.0 spec.

To meet customer expectations we will provide sufficient USB 3.0 hubs in our store, that's every one can buy hub and get it in one package with ordered Bi•Fury's, to minimize unnecessary cost.
Now we are in negotiations with some producers to provide hubs in good price on right time.

First we thinking about Dipol Hub's.
But price per port is still very high.


For now we are most believe in ORICO A3H10 hub.
Price per port is right and quality is very good.

Hubs come with 12V4A external power supply, and manufacturer assured us that every port meets the full specification USB 3.0 (5V 900mA).



I will update some info about hubs and Bi•Fury sale in next weekend.

Thats good news. I've been itching to get some of these

 gearmo comes back on  and has good spacing

  they also work well with my am sticks.  the brick is too small but I use  this psu to run 4 of them

use with these wires

http://www.mcmelectronics.com/product/82-12675  

 these wires are moron proof   they light up blue with the center positive and they light up red with the center negative.

in the case of the hubs blue means go red means dead you blow the hub up.

 +1 recommendation on the Gearmo hubs. Really solid product, and plenty of spacing for these BF1's.

Waiting for these.   Will you know if these will run on bitminter.com  java client as plug n play.  

   I could  sell 1000 on ebay  at a fair price and  if they run on bitminter's java client as plug n play.      I sold around 1000 am sticks on ebay and my of my buyers want to use these 2x furies  on bitminter.com as a plug n play unit. just like an am stick


this is my ebay feedback  you can see I sold lots of sticks to happy buyers.

Have you had problems with Ebay or Paypal? I keep reading about Paypal accounts being closed and funds held for doing bitcoin related business. I have done some small time reselling on Ebay as well but I'm considering getting out because of the horror stories I keep reading.

 I can't do preorders  as they cause endless problems.

by and by I am holding my own selling the sticks. 
small margin no greed.
 push hard to ship fast.
 sell 4 to 10 stick sets and at the lowest prices. this is important as I use  usps.com small flat rate boxes  to ship.
won't ever get rich but I am making some money.

Hi Filipeo,

Thanks for info.
Did you try USB 2.0 powered HUBs? I just wonder if USB 2.0 can deliver when it gets sufficient power on input.

[klintay]

def interested i have a number of people who are willing to buy these where i live (Hong Kong). Will have a better idea of how many units when we get the final price

[Vancityguy]

Any updates on availability?

[mogrith]

Hopefully on Friday.    But at least no presales.

[kmtan]

waiting for more information on the pricing...

[cagrund]

If you are looking for a 28 Port USB-Hub with support for USB 2.0 AND 3.0 with external power supply (5V / 4 Ampere)
have a look at my ebay auchtion here --> http://www.ebay.de/itm/MondoHub-28-Port-USB-Hub-mit-USB-3-0-Ports-5-Volt-4-Ampere-/200980703897?pt=DE_Computing_USB_Kabel_Hubs_Adapter&hash=item2ecb622a99

These units will never earn back more then 0.3BTC if delivered by next diff update.

If they are priced over 0.3BTC then they will be insanely overpriced, and a terrible investment.

Coinish says about $40 over 6 months.

Yea it's pretty amazing how totally unprofitable mining is now, only people making money are early adopters and hardware companies.

5000/335= 14.9 AM BEs
14.9*0.035= 0.52

I expect at least 0.5 BTC.

[reactor]

The problem is that at each level there is an upsell - and unfortunately right now it is the chip makers who are selling chips / pre-sold chips at such an unreasonable price that custom hardware makers have no choice but to charge more than items are worth to even cover their own costs.  Of course we're all sitting here hoping this is a different story and items are priced to roughly match diff expectation vs. btc price, etc.

You also have to consider that you need ports for 14-15 block erupters. An additional cost

[tk1337]

definitely will be following this thread now

looks like great work thus far...
