Answering all
e-mails and PM about 130 GHs units
The shipping of 130 GHs units will start mid march.
All end of feb 260 ghs units already shipped out

From experience Technobit are not good at adding stuff to orders. I'd recommend ordering a TP-Link off eBay and doing the firmware upgrade yourself.

[Lucko]

Finally found sweet spot  
Already run rock solid for almost 4 days.

Do you have a preproduction board or just bad luck? All 11 boards that I have are rock solid with defaults... I even drooped the voltage a bit and still rock solid... 260/985

[QuiveringGibbage]

Sometimes DOA can just mean the USB leaks power and your power protected USB hub wont let your PC talk to it.

no usb hub used. I have a dedicated PC (mATX MB) as the control box running cgminer. All 5 unit were plugged directly into the MB and tested individually. I even went to the trouble of trying the two DOA units with another PSU and Laptop.

Actually, maybe DOA is not the right term. sorry, I can detect the units in cgminer but nothing seems to get it to hash. Tried all the settings described by 2Good's review.

Anyhow the unit are already on their way back to Bulgaria. I did ask TechnoBit for additional support but was directed to submit RMA. They responded promptly

Cheers,

Thanks

Yes, preproduction board  and the weather make thing worse.

Your order is 130 Ghs
and the shipment is March
130 Gh/s units are in production now

[QuiveringGibbage]

If anyone happens to need to go through the RMA process, you should note that; You should declare your package to be less than 15 EUR in order to skip customs clearance. Having h/w sitting in Bulgaria customs for an extra 2-3 days is ... costly on time.

Cheers,
QG
PS, Marto74, should consider letting your customers know before they ship items back.

Hi !

one Question : When will the March 130er Units Shipped ? , cause today its the 22the of March and nearly April.

The Page shows : 409 Euro and Shipment 7th of April. Means for me as Early Adaptor paid 90 Bucks more for 1-2 Week earlier Deliver ?

Great howto Zich!
Have you any idea why freezing the whole RPI out with cgminer 4.0.0 in 1 min? With the older version 3.12.3 works fine.

And the other thing:
root@rpi:~/cgminer# gcc api-example.c -Icompat/jansson-2.5 -Icompat/libusb-1.0/libusb -o cgminer-api
api-example.c:14:20: fatal error: config.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

[ZBC3]

When you return an item to Technobit you should set the value to 0.00.

Technically it's not a new transaction, and has no value since it's already been paid for.

shipping of 130 begins in monday

Nice marto, even starting to ship before the set deadline. An exemple to many other ASIC manufacturers.
Can't wait to add these to my farm.

No idea about that, it's work just fine on my Rpi.

About api compile, did you run it on right directory? if yes you should be able to see compile instruction on api-example.c

Code:

sudo nano api-example.c
