build a small farm?  ... a good cooling system that pays off (in terms of eating less through your wallet)

Not sure if I'll build a farm or not of those but thats always an option. Anyway, I haven't researched the topic of cooling methods other that liquid and air cooling, but getting a number of those 256 mining sets at a bargain price and doing something new, not unique maybe, but that'd be more efficient in overalll, that sounds as a sweet idea to me

I like the miner but it eats up too much electricity 2kw for only 256MHZ  that's crazy power use

Seems to auto clock itself based on temps to always achieve hashrate, so the higher the ambient the higher the power consumption. Mine is about 2500W @ 35C.

Have you tried putting in a cooler environment? like 15c or less? it's help a lot if you could show the graph of consumption/temp

I don't have a testing cell big enough to temp control 2500W at the moment. For a unit this size I don't think its feasible for people to be running at 20C anyway.

Well, have anyone an Uranus on hands?..

They don't exist - it's a scam.

Dogie, in your Ares 256 review you recommended to set difficulty to 16000+ in Ghash.io pool settings. I tried increasing it to 51000 and the miner is now capable of up to 360 MH/s. Two Ares units output 680-720 MH/s, while retaining the same power consumption! Note: environment temperature is 22C.

IYFTech, regarding the Uranus, you can write whatever you wish, but I personally know HC are building two datacenters for this model. The miner exists thats a fact, visit them to make that certain for yourself!

Perhaps they would like to update their website, then.  It's still listed as 'under development'.  In addition, if it exists right now, then should we presume that those who have pre-ordered have units on their way, or will those datacenters be built out first?

Made no difference to me. The higher difficulty will be doing is increasing the period you have to run to get an nice average hash rate, and the only time it should make a difference is if the controller is being bombarded / overloaded by too many low diff shares. I don't see any evidence of that happening at 16k.

So whats with writing in this topic only? It pisses me off some people have nothing better to do than go and post 650 messages per day. I live in a neighbouring country and have enough info about HC and their equipment. I simply go to Tallinn if I need proof and NOT create some bs from afar.

Thank you for clarifying. I'll test it.

Let's see some proof this company isn't a total scam (though we already know they lie about specs).

I'd be amazed if their cloudmining wasn't a full on ponzi.

I got an extra 10MH [subjectively, its not been long]. Can you post a screenshot of your pool stats? If I got any extra hash rate then it is very much possible there is extra headroom which I'm power [heat] limited at.

http://s1.postimg.org/6wy8w48ij/2x_Ares_at_51000_Ares_Begins.jpg

At 16000, hashrate is more stable: 245 - 270 Mh/s per one unit and 5,5-6 LTC per day, rejected shares up to 12%
At 51000, hashrate is not so stable: 245 - 370 Mh/s per one unit and 6,5-8 LTC per day, rejected shares approximately 3%.

I would personally love to see a product with efficiency of Uranus.  But with estimated time of Q1, it's about to come to end of that.  And I don't think there is anything besides rendering so far shown.

This is the Bitcoin part of the forum, Scrypt miners have their own part of the forum. The fact they resell someone elses scrypt miner in no way validates anything to do with their Bitcoin miner range, or their ability not to scam customers.

The fact is that this company now only sells Scrypt miners, the SHA256 miner that it sold, and it only sold one model, the Apollo, was a limited run product using Hashfast boards screwed into a PC case.

The likelyhood is that the Apollo product of which probably only a handful of were made and sold is the bait for people to pre-order the (now dissapeared) unbelievably specced Zeus and Uranus rigs.

They probably made just enough to get a few vocal shills and one off to Dogie to keep the hounds at bay. Very clever really when you think about it.

Now they just want people to buy their Cloud mining or convert their orders for products that were never going to exist into their Cloud mining. And Cloud mining has been a bust for all but the very few who got in early...

Ares are very useful to mine Bitcoins on clevermining.com pool 
It's almost like 5 TH/s SHA-256 miner with 2.3kW power consumption.

Clevermining gets you 0.000169 BTC/Day per MH/s currently

An Ares is 250MH/s (aprox)

Thats 0.04225 BTC/Day

So more like a 3.9TH SHA-256 miner

So no great shakes. Better just to mine BTC

[Umberg]

my Ares makes approx 270 MHs and this gets me 0.047 BTC/day, so it's like 4.7 THs SHA-256 machine 

[numnutz2009]

I still havent seen one person with one of these peoples miners and if that wasnt bad enough they sell hashfast boards with power specs that are not able to be achieved?? They dont reply to multiple emails (at least none of the ones i have sent) and promote hardware with incorrect specs so y is ne one giving them money at all?? They said their yoli boards get 650gh/s using 550w each which i havent found to be tue at all lol. I changed the voltage and freq in over a hundred different combos on 10 different boards and never got lower then .93w per gig and that wasnt ne where near 650gh/s....if their miners r usin hashfast boards they cant get those numbers they posted a while back.
