Seems a bit expensive considering what the Chinese are now selling but the question I most have, after looking over the specs, is...
What ASIC chip are they using? 0.65W/GH is a big claim. Even the Chinese A1 boxes only claim 0.88W/GH!
It must be the most efficient Bitcoin mining chip made so far. Who paid for it's development? What node? etc.
The chip is the Coincraft A1, it's in the first post http://bitmine.ch/?page_id=863Price wise the 3TH is on a par with 15x Antminers which would get you the same speed in a couple of days. The downside of that many ants is space, psu's, cables, network switches and the biggie power usage. It will all come down to when they are actually available, if they can make the timeline they have set I'd probably buy. Be lucky to get 0.65W/GH out of the A1, the Chinese 0.88W/GH claim is already far higher than the Technobit A1 Chips I'm running which only get 1.1W/GH! Mine won't get out of bed for less than 850mV (Turbo mode!) and only supply Normal Mode 25GH/s! But I've always suspected they may have made an improved 2nd batch.

I would love to be on that road trip but the last time I was in a trunk it involved a copy of Feminist Review and a cucumber . Needless to say an experience I'm not over keen to repeat even if I get to see miner porn at the end.
Well I am 90% sure I'm going to go with a 2.250 TH with the last of my fiat if this company can deliver. I'm aware it might just be better to buy and hodl btc instead but... well I miss mining and have a fair bit of free power during daylight hours so what the hell. Solar power and outrageous government feed in tariffs 4TW.

They are about a 30 min car drive from me, I don't mind nipping over, if anybody else wants to come with me and can get to Leeds, I'll pick you up from the train station

FWIW... why not hedge your 'bet' and spend half on mining equipment and half on BTC... then you get to mine and hodl at the same time Btw. in that link I PM'd you yesterday they are claiming a more reasonable 1040W/TH.

I just reverse looked up the phone number it does say it is coming from Rotherham. I do respect the fact they are not taking pre-orders this does give me confidence plus paypal would be a bonus. However the point is still valid I don't see a VAT. I am following this very closely.

Sorry for the delay with any updates we are currently working flat out:
Our VAT number is 181109625
Regarding our production etc.. we are waiting for a delivery of components to our electronics manufacturer. Once we have these components in stock we have everything ready to mass produce.
When we do start accepting orders, for the first week we will only be accepting orders for the enigma 1. This is to ensure that we don't get too swamped and can meet our dispatch deadlines, the following week we will be opening up to the rest of our range.
We are also in the process of setting up a small datacenter to offer a hosting solution for your miners which includes 24/7 monitoring and a backup UPS, this will be online an running by the end of march.

Assuming it's not voltage locked and a buyer can up the voltage, from 0.65V low power mode, to 0.765V normal mode to get 1TH. But yeah time to delivery is key these things lose 50% of their value per month, that's why companies don't usually hold stock, but take pre-orders!

I want to apologize in advance if my assumptions are wrong or accusatory in nature, but having ordered from just about every mining company to come to existence, including some fake ones, I was wondering if you are able to answer the following: 1) You're chips/components are supplied by Bitmine. How are they able to supply you while having a massive backlog of orders from individuals? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=486808.0https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=291141.02) Your domain name was registered on Feb 10th 2014. How are you already up and running less then 30 days later? http://who.is/whois/www.bitcoinultra.co.uk2.1) How have you been able to secure your supply chain in less then 30days of coming into existence? 3) Jenra Limited was used to register your domain. Why is the company status "dissolved"? http://companycheck.co.uk/company/06051481As some individuals have come to realise, most mining companies have been using our "pre-order" $ to establish a mining operation, increasing the Network Hashrate by multiple petahash/month and will only ship when they've accumulated a wealthy amount of coins. By the time the machines are ready to ship, the break even point is long and the ROI is much lower then calculated based on initial "delivery dates".

Time will always tell. What i have learned from my investments with Asic's in the last months is: You have to be patient :-) Also it will help you to succeed if you can show videos from working prototypes (sorry if i miss that, didnt read the whole thread) and the most important thing: Send one or two miners to senior forum members who can verify your product.
Everybody will be a happy customer :-)
good luck!

i think all these points are being covered... i'm just glad to see a UK company building rigs, means I can do cash on collection (just hanging the notes to dry as we speak)
